All of a sudden my evo 3d that I've had since the release date no longer makes or receives phone calls. We dialling out the phone goes past the dialling indicator and the phone call begins counting but never rings. There is a slight static sound if I listen closely. I called Sprint and had them reprogram it but it didn't fix the issue. I'm wondering if anyone has any recommendations because I dont want to have to factory reset my phone untill its a last resort.

That's common for past due balance. They shut everything off.
Pay your bill. LOL.
Might have put the phone on the bill? Went over a spending limit?
Thats funny cause the same thing just started happening to me. Started about 2 hours ago. The Nexus One had a bug like this too on CM7. It might have to do with gingerbread and sense not playing nicely
If you are having google voice take over your sprint number, its causing the issue. I disabled GV sprint integration and had it only handle my voicemails and now calls work fine.
Yep.. turn off Google voice. That fixed it for me.

I figured it was something like that...for some reason I thought it was because of the major thunderstorm/mini-hurricane outside of my house lol but this is the first time it's happened to me and I also used to own OG Evo.

happened to me about 2 weeks ago... super frustrating
Had it happen in the past with EVO4g
I just chalked it up to phone being *****y so i gave it a few seconds to get it out its system

Make your first phone call !!!! Evo 3d will not work unless you make the first phone call and your carrier activates the phone on the call, i have turned this bug into the executive office at sprint last week... It is being distributed to all call centers ...

I get it when the network is extremely congested. (comerica park during a busy game, wayne state during the school year). In both of those cases you have 20 or 30 thousand extra people in a very small area. Were you in that type of situation?

Nah actually my office is in royal oak and no airrave and it does it... At home in southfield i have a airrave but if that msg comes up, the other person i am txting gets it 30 times lol weird
Seems to happen randomly for me.
Here's a posting I made a couple weeks ago. Are you getting these same error codes?

Yeah, your having two separate issues. Same thing happens here with the air rave really annoys people..
Same problem in Milwaukee, WI with "Radio resource shortage" message. Spoke to sprint they indicated I had a text block on my account, news to me. Once removed seems to have resolved the issue.
Just got off the phone with Sprint, and they said I won't be able to make a phone call, receive phone calls, or even text messages until October 14th because they are in the process of upgrading their towers to the new LTE network in the Fort Worth area. It's weird to own a phone that I can't use for the most basic features. GO Sprint GO.
P.S. Any recommendations on how to make a phone call or text over data so I can still make calls/text?

Seems to me you were fed a line. Call back and see if the answer changes. If it doesn't, your are entitled to a credit. No questions asked.

Sounds fishy... It's hard to believe that a carrier would just deny services and continue to charge for them. I assume this would mean no service for anyone in the ft worth area since you're not the only one who uses those towers. I don't think Sprint would risk the class action lawsuit.

No arguments there. I'll probably call back in a few days to see if they have anything better for me. Right now I'm sick and lost my voice, so I just don't want to deal with it. But once I get my voice back, I'll see if I can't get anything better out of them. Especially since I'm still paying for when I can't even use my phone which is kind of stupid.

Why would you call back in a few days? I would all over them about this if it were me and I wouldn't let up until I had a real explanation. Tell them to fix your **** or let you out of your contract (as not providing service to you while I assume you are in good standing and not violation the TOS on their part)
However, there are at least 3 sides to every situation what you say, what sprint says, and what really going on. Not calling you a liar it just seems like there is more to the story.
That's my 2 cents.

Sounds like a load of BS to me. I haven't had a problem with service around the area... I haven't actually been into "Fort Worth" in a few days, but I live pretty damn close. There is no way they could just shut off all services like that for almost two months. That rep must have been new or lied or something, because that doesn't even SOUND reasonable.
lol if they couldnt provide me service until Oct. 14th i would have just said i want to cancel without a fee immediately because i do business with my phone. and they can't really do squat because i pay for a service and they don't even let me do the most basic of functions.
OP needs to call back and get clarification. Only thing I have found:
https://www.sprint.net/maint_view.php
I might try to call again tonight once I get off of work. But again I'm not entirely sure what to say. Plus right now, I've lost my voice, so I can barely talk, as a result, I can't even show anger in my voice, so getting made isn't much of an option. I'm still not sure what I'm going to do yet.
I'm like on day 5 of this **** it reallllly sucks. I live in Irving an have been having everything except the "can't make calls". Sprint needs to give a free month or something better.

Same here. Today is day 5 for me as well. But according to Sprint, I still have a lot of days left in front of me since the tower won't be back on until October 14th.

You should see if you can get an Airrave which makes your phone work over wifi... that really sucks tho. That only works at home tho...maybe they can send you a 2nd one for work.

I just got off the phone with the a Sprint manager last night, who then connected me to her EVO specialist. She was also unable to solve the problem, so she told me that she will get the towers in the area looked at and try to determine what is going on in the area and give me a call back within 72 hours. That said, they said they were going to do this once before 5 days ago now, but I still haven't got a call back from then. However, one good thing that I got out of it all is that they are crediting my account for the past 6 days and how ever many days more it takes to get my phone back on the network. So at the very least, now I'm not paying for phone service that I'm not getting, so that makes me happy. I'm sure they will figure something soon with the towers if not maybe they can give me Airrave so I can at least make phone calls while I'm at home which would make things more liveable. I'll keep everyone posted on what they discover and what they decide to do.
In addition, my location is the TCU campus in Fort Worth. I live close by and go to school there. In both areas I get no cell service. But once I drive about 5 miles away I have no problems. Let me know if anyone else in the area is experience the problems on XDA. The sprint store nearby between Berry and Hulen St. said they have had a few customers coming the past few days with the same problem, but I was curious if anyone on here was also experiencing my pain.

No problems here in the Arlington/Mansfield/Kennedale area so far... I guess if that changes I will be reporting on here and raising hell with Sprint as well.

If that is the case it is either a provisioning error, phone isn't set to cdma only or bad phone.

I don't think you have the same problem that I do, because if I leave my area my phone works, fine. I'm only having trouble when I'm at TCU or at my house which is right next to TCU. But who knows, maybe they are related.
P.S. I've already changed my phone to CDMA only to see if it would help but got no change. Plus I've already taken it into the Sprint store, and they said everything was fine with the phone and factory reset it and everything, but saw no problems because their building is outside of my tower radius, as a result the phone worked perfectly there.
I've been having issues since Thursday where I can't receive calls or texts. Yesterday seemed ok but now back to nothing. I've updated profile, prl, etc and ##72786#. Spoken to tech support and they have no clue. Has anyone else been experiencing issues? This has been happening in the DC and Baltimore markets.

I did that and they want to do a reinstall of android. Software doesn't corrupt work again and then get corrupt. I will only settle for a replacement at this point.

i agree with evo401. it's probably just that the towers are being worked on. if it is your phone (and you're not rooted, etc), htc will fix it for free. but you would be without your phone for about 2 weeks.
Folks, I've posted this in the Samsung forums as well but just purchased a week old HTC One today and seem to be having the same issue. I am taking my ATT LTE sim out of my Iphone 4, but before doing that I sign out of my apple account and also turn off Imessage on my iphone, i'm still not getting text messages from my wifes Iphone nor a coworkers Iphone. Can someone chime in and maybe help me here a little. Does this take a little time to work or should it work instantly when I change sim cards from one phone to another? Any help at all would be appreciated to try to solve this issue. I just got a text from my brother in Cali and he has an android so it seems to be just the Iphones.
thank you all.
also, I just restored my iphone to stock and no luck yet getting texts from Iphones.
Make sure that they update your account and provision it for a htc phone vs iPhone.

That might be ATTs issue man, I would take the phone in to a local store and tell em what's up. Or maybe call customer service.
