I recently had the line on my Rezound switched from my personal line to my new business line. After this all worked well but I could not access the voice mail as it was password protected by the guy who's number I took over. I went down to the local Verizon store to see if they could access the account and remove the password, as it turns out they can not since I do not own the account but the guy at the desk did a factory reset anyways. Now when I boot up I enter the Verizon Activation pages but my phone wont activate. I am running CleanROM DE with Amon Ra Recovery.
Please help! I have wiped, rebooted and pulled the battery as well as the SIM multiple times and can not find the solution online.

Call Verizon back. Sounds like something wasn't set up right

Scratch that, I decided to re-install the ROM to see if that worked and it did lol. Thanks for the reply though :victory:

I just went through to setup my GV account on the phone, and I'm running into a problem. First, it says it doesn't recognize the phone number I'm using, even though it's the same number as I was previously using with my last phone. Then it goes to send a text message to the phone to verify the new number, but it says "Your phone number could not be verified, please try again."
I'm wondering if my device isn't activated correctly. I had some issues initially, because they sent me a SIM card that was linked to the wrong phone number, and I had to spend a while on the phone with customer service, then took it in to a VZW store, where a girl played with it for 30 minutes, not seeming to know what she was doing. She claims she got the SIM card switched over to MY phone number, and the 4G data does work... but maybe it's still linked to the incorrect number, and that's causing GV to not be able to verify the phone #?
That's my guess at least. So anyone let me know if you've had the same issue, so I know if it's a problem with GV, or with this SIM deal.

Have you verified if you got the correct number? You'll have to check to make sure your SIM card is provisioned with your number. Might want to ask customer service or walk into a store for them to make sure all is well. Once you get it up and running, GV will work fine. Been using it without any problem.
No issues here. Set up went as it has on all of my android phones.

Damn, guess I'll have to bring it back in for them to look at tomorrow.
In the About Phone, it does show my number... but something's gotta still be messed up with it if GV can't recognize the number.
Just wondering but have you uninstalled and reinstalled google voice? When I set mine up it did say something about voicemail not being able to be set up on this phone.

When you're on google.com/voice, did you already setup your phone number there? Or did you just download the google voice app?

The voice mail setup isn't a problem. You can set that up on your google voice account online. Just go to the settings and it will ask you if you want to enable google voice mail to your associated number.

Over the past several weeks I even had trouble with my motodroid and I experienced it again today when I first set up my TBolt, although this time it only took re-attempting it once. Running stock TBolt.
I only use Google Voice for voicemail, but it gave me a weird error at the end of the setup, something about not supported on my carrier and I had to check a help document. Seemed to finish anyway and is apparently working. *shrug*
Seems like there are some quirks.
I got a Motorola Razr Maxx from my work. I wanted to save $50.00 so on Monday I had my phone number ported over. I needed a new sim card so our rep took it to the store and got it changed over. But my Backup Assistant didn't work because it kept saying MDN has changed please enter pin number. I looked at the verizon website and also had our rep call. The only answer was to restore to factory default.
did I do that. NO!!!!!
I did a exaustive search and found this little blurb and I wanted to share it with you. I was able to reset my pin number from this
Have you tried clearing the pin from phone by going to
Settings
Apps
All
Sync Services and clear data and cache
After doing this you should be prompted to re enter info when BA app is opened again.
It worked for me. I was abel to reset my pin number. I wanted to share
I know there are threads out with this same issue. But my issue is I allready had it working with a apn that required a user name and password. I rooted my galaxy and when I restarted my phone it said my galaxy loading screen it said custom on the bottom on the loading screen where it says samsung galaxy. anyways I went on to delete some bloatware and I somehow crashed google play. so I could not get into the store. I tried to reset the phone to factory specs but that does not fix my issues since it only loads the apk that I did not delete google play did not work.
So I downloaded a file from here for my i527 phone and flashed it with odin and got it back up and running. Re rooted it cant get the custom loading screen back up but I cant remember the apn I used that worked with my phone to get text messages to send and receive pictures. I know I had to enter a username and password. I know the password was password if anyone knows these straight talk to att apn please foward it to me.

Yes I tried those settings thinking about formatting phone back to factory defaults. I think the file I used to get bqck to stock after I deleted some apk that where for google play os the culprit. 8t worked before I used that file not afterwards.

After rooting did you install adblock by chance... That blocked my att phone from sending or receiving mms. Another thing is rooting itself shouldn't have altered your apn in any way, so if it changed something is wrong.since rooting does nothing more than granting you root level access, nothing at all should have changed except your knox warranty status after flashing recovery.

I did not do any of that. On straight talk it says it is hit or miss with the same phone with picture texts send and recieve. It worked before I had to reflash the phone. It did not work after reflashed the phone. Found a fix. if it don;t work all you have to do is do a factory reset till it does

I've seen some threads here and on Google with similar trouble but never any solution...
My phone calls started going to voice mail about 3 weeks ago WITHOUT phone ringing, leaving voice mail notification or showing in call history.
Checked the obvious, ringtones, etc. Phone will not ring or show any visual of incoming call..
Performed several hard resets, factory reset, Restore prior backups. Wiping caches. Everything except re-flashing MEANROM which I will do if nothing else works.
Called SPRINT support and they reset everything (any call forwards, etc.) Updated PRL, Profile... Entered 3 codes given to me by SPRINT (*720, *730, *740) No change. They said after powering back on the phone would perform a "Hands Free Activation". (This did NOT happen?) Phone will not ring or show any visual of incoming call..

The "Code" it wants is the MSL number. Once I entered that into the password prompt it allowed me to do the network reset. The phone re-boots and updates PRL. As soon as that was done I got 8 undelivered text messages but it still will not ring the phone on incoming calls.
Closer but not yet there...

I had the same problem about a week ago. I updated the profile under system updates and everything worked fine after that.
Problem Resolved!
Problem resolved on SPRINT's end! Apparently tech support neglected to reset one option which when reset the phone worked. (she didn't say what it was but saw it immediately.)
I would really like to play around more with flashing different ROMS except I'm a newbie and while most of my problems have been solved here I find it too difficult begging for assistance. I find more one liner answers stating "... just do X Y or Z..." then off they go never answering further questions. There's just too many combinations of ROMs, Radios, HBOOT, Firmware, etc. that at almost every turn I get a sick feeling in my stomach that something is going to brick my phone and I'll have to beg here for someone to hold my hand. I tried MEANBEAN for a while but found the battery life not so great and was missing Beats audio. (I listen to internet radio in my car rather than my car stereo...) That's why I'm staying on ICS.
Thanks for all that tried to help me. I'll be clicking the Thanks button...
I rooted / s-off'd and unlocked my HTC DNA today using the sunshine app. Once I installed cyanogenmod today I noticed I could not send texts. I could send only one as soon as I rebooted but after that it didn't work. After a lot of looking around and research I found that its because of my smsc setting on my phone. I have spent all day trying to figure out the smsc system but I just can't get it to keep the number I give it. Everytime I give it the verizon number it just resets it as soon as I reboot my radio. I have no idea how to stop it from doing this.
The number it keeps setting itself to is +19037029920.
I've looked everywhere and I'm running out of resources, I even wiped my phone completely and cleared all the caches and all the gunk and reinstalled. Nothing. I'm running paranoid android now but it's still not working.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you!
