Use *228+ (hold down zero to get +) to get the numberpad. You can also use *22890 to activate and *22891 to update the prl.

Activate it over the phone with Verizon, it was like that for me when I first got my Fascinate and tried to switch numbers.

So it doesn't mean it s a problem with my rom or root?
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA Premium App
I just did a *228 option 1 and 2 and it took no problem. You are probably just experiencing a tower issue.
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA Premium App
Yeah.. No problem with your rom and/or root i'd say. You do have an appropriate radio, right? Dl09 or eb01.

Look under settings/about phone and look at the baseband version.
If you can text and/or use WiFi there is nothing wrong with your radio.
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA Premium App
Ok, so it says eb01. Still can't use*228. Id like to change my number, but I'm scared to try cause my phone won't program. Any suggestions?
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA Premium App
If this is a issue I would flash back to stock and then change your number but before you do so I would make a complete backup file on my computer or sd card that way you can simply return your phone to previous .

A side observation about roaming with 3G. I have noted that some apps think that I have no internet connectivity at all during 3G roaming with EVDO. Others seem to work fine. Can this be fixed?

Anyone else getting no data?

Just wiped/flashed the base and now I get no data anywhere. Checked all the settings and everything but I can only make calls, text and use WiFi. Does anyone have this problem?

did you try toggling your LTE using the LTE swtich available in TheBase? if yes, you'll need to edit your build.prop to correct the issue.

Hi, could you solve it. I´ve just bought the phone and I´m facing the same problem. I don´t have anything in the APN and I don´t have the option to define it.
Every time I lose my data, I fix it by turning Airplane mode on. Then I reboot my phone (with airplane mode still turned on) and when it finishes I turn airplane mode back off and everything is fine again. Hope that works for you?

The message arrives with a download button. Pressing download only gives a downloading indicator, no pic. If it worked where would the pic be downloaded to? Gallery?

Can't say I've ever had that problem, my phone stays connected to Wi-Fi nearly 24/7 except for when driving or out eating as I have it connected to Wi-Fi at home and work. Never once have I had any issue with downloading pictures/videos sent via text while connected to Wi-Fi.
