Can't call until reboot - Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE

Every once and a while my evo won't make calls, giving me a error, and when others try and call me they get a error as well, no voicemail or anything.
Anyone else getting this? First noticed it after stock with root, wiped and still happening. I'm running viper Rom and it still happens every once and awhile to.
Also, when it happens I also can't get texts. I haven't tested data out any of the times, but when it happens it still shows signal and data icons.
A reboot fixes it, but I never know when its going on until someone tells me in other ways or I try and call or text.

Are you using google voice with the sprint integration? I had an issue with that for a while. If so go to the google voice page and disconnect and reconnect your number from voice and it should all clear up.

Thanks a ton. Didn't know GVoice had done that. Disconnected it and switched it back to my regular google voice number, with forwarding for voice mail.

answering phone issue.

Hey everyone.
I've been having some issues with answering calls. Whenever I get an incoming call I trap answer and a voice comes on saying press 1 to accept or press 2 to send to voicemail. I don't like this at all! Does anybody know how to return it to normal? I had it for awhile in my OG Evo days but now it's annoying with the unreliable proximity sensor.
Thanks in advance!

do you happen to use google voice? because if so i think you have to go into the google voice setting in the app and set it to not be used for calls.

I did once. Come to think of it, it started happening after I installed it. About 2 weeks after though I flashed a new rom and haven't installed it since. I don't want to use google voice, but if I install it then where would I go to fix this?
Thank you for helping!

If you install it and skip all the sprint integration and whatnot, once it's set up all you have to do is go into settings and I believe it's the second thing in the list. It's very hard to miss it haha

Okay so I installed voice and went to settings but can not for the life of me find the setting to turn this off... I'm not normally this stupid. So happen to know where exactly? Lol.

[Q] Error code 1233 when updating profile/prl

Last night I decided to try to update my prl through the updater in Sense and I got an error code 1233. Called sprint tech support and spent an hour trying to get it fixed. The tech ended up just sending me a new phone, which a huge buzz kill because I've had hboot 1.12 since the beginning with s-off. Was running toasted-deck from irc, and I don't know if that had anything to do with my phone getting screwed up so I figured I'd ask if anyone else has had this problem? I want to unlock this new phone when I get it too, and I'm really going to miss TD if this is a common problem.
I got the same thing while trying to update my firmware.

OF wouldn't accept a new phone there's a method of fixing it with WiFi and checking HTC updates then rebooting
cm10ed 3VO
I was getting this too. I had to run an errand up to another major city north of where I live. While there, I figured I'd give it a shot again, and it worked there. If you get the opportunity, try running it in a different area from where you tried.
I'm surprised that they are sending you a new phone for this.

I searched high and low for a fix before I even called Sprint Tech. Any chance you can point me in the right direction? I'll just send them their locked down phone back if I can fix this one.

Unfortunately I did try in a few different areas. I live in Cincinnati and go to school in Dayton, but got the same error in both places. I really wonder how this even happened because I never had a problem running AOSP on my OG EVO so I don't think that could be it.
I had this happen on my 3D and when it did work it only connected to Verizon....weird I know and even the tech couldn't believe but I did a data reset on it and never had that problem again.

So I was on stock with goodies and just out of curiosity switched to mean rom to try and activate my phone. The activation went off without a hitch and now my phone is working perfectly again. So pumped.
if u were able to do it before then all of sudden u can't, it must be sprint

Are you using Google voice? I've found that GV messes things up like that.

OK i flashed to mean rom and now I'm able to update prl and profile without getting the error, as for the busy tone it was gv, i signed out of gv the calls went thru then i signed back in and get the busy signal again, which sucks because that's never happened before till now.

I had the same problem a few days ago. I was Running CM10 and switched over to Stock w/ Goodies to update my PRL and Profile so i can take advantage of LA's new LTE network but i kept getting that error. I ended up unrooting and relocking my phone and restored to complete stock after that it updated fine the first time. I doubt being rooted prevents you from updating either the PRL or Profile.
I was getting the same error code at work. I googled the code ansomeone said it was a connection problem. I believe this because I never get a good signal at work. When I got home my prl updated. I'm on meanrom.
Easy Fix
Turn off WiFi and LTE radio (CDMA only) and try it. You should be able to update the PRL and Profile.
As "zAcHcOmA" mentioned, I also gave them a Thanks for it.. I had the same issue with "Error Code 1233".
My problem started when I noticed every incoming call I tried to answer thru the Handset would basically act as if I missed the call. Seems I didn't have an issue answering through Blue Tooth though. Not exactly sure what is causing this. I'll keep an eye on it after updating my PRL & Profile. Anyways, I did the following and was able to update both PRL & Profile..
1. Make sure Wireless is off
2. Set network to by going to Settings - Mobile Data - Network Mode "CDMA only"
3. I was then able to update both PRL & Profile through System Updates and I then rebooted my phone.
I'll now find out if my issue is resolved or if I still have on going issues.

What PRL are you currently on?
Also, keep in mind that your PRL has to do with roaming, so it shouldn't have any bearing on sending text messages (unless you're roaming). Your issue could be with Sprint and their service in your area, and not with the phone itself.

The most current PRL is 25015.....fyi.
Also, the issue may not be on your end-it may lie with whoever is sending you texts.

If you get that error you can try updating first over WiFi. I'd also do a reboot first. Once that works you can call sprint and they will refresh your connection on their side.

This happened to a friend of mine and he said he had fixed it by putting his phone on cdma only... I think sprint working on the towers was causing the issue... Not sure if this will work but doesn't hurt to try

There are usually many quick fixes for me when that happens, such as toggling airplane mode, rebooting, wiping and flashing my rom. One thing I've noticed is that having more than one sms app tends to make my messages not send, so if you have more than one messaging app I suggest deleting the non stock app and re-trying

I suggest taking it into your nearest sprint store and asking about it then, maybe they'll be able to replace your phone unless your warranty is dead

Sent from my EVO using xda premium
I think I was having the same problems back on my Blackberry, Sprint had to reconfigure my service or something, I can't really remember. But if nothing you do with PRLs/Phone systems then contact them to see if they just need to re-provision your line or something along those lines.
So I ran an ruu today brought and now they're sending me a new one now I'm rocking and EVO

Not Receiving Phone Calls

Running Viper, no kernels and no Google Voice used as a phone number, although I do have an account using GV, but just for texts. Anywho, calls are going straight to voicemail. I only get the VM notification icon to show someone called. I've wiped cache, etc., no change.
Any suggestion prior to wiping? No, the DTTM is not checked under call settings.

Ahh, good question. Phone works great, texts, etc. I just get all my calls sent to VM.

Google voice integration could have been messed up on server side. Maybe double check Google voice settings on phone and Google website, make a modification, save, modify back, save to see if that fixes the issue.
Also I had an issue last week where I was missing calls, vm not being pushed to visual voice mail (no vm notifications either), and texts were coming in hours late, not at all, or in bursts. But i could send text and make calls just fine. I updated my profile and prl with no luck. Eventually I had to call sprint for tech support for the first time in 14 years. They walked me through the process for doing a hands free first time activation on my phone and all my issues went away immediately.
Hope this helps

I wouldn't think that that would have anything to do with the radio although I dint use Google voice so I'm going to have to let someone more experienced in that field take over
