Did you try to unlock it with a program? Cause there is a thread that addresses this that talks about fixing the "null/null" problem. Even if it is not the same problem, try their fix cause it supposedly fixes the imei

Rooting the T-Mobile SGH-T959

Just wondering if there was any progress being made on figuring out how to root the T-Mobile Samsung Vibrant. Anybody know if a fix is being worked on and if so what the ETA is?

it's pretty much been rooted from the beginning. google is your friend
Really? Not to sound like a hardcore n00b or nothing, but I've tried every method out there and nothing has worked. If you've got a solution id love to know where you found it.

Note that this device is blocked from accessing the recovery menu. Thoughts?

Call 611 and tell them you want it replaced. I did it and schmoozed a bit. They sent it next day air.

I also can't boot into recovery using the buttons, but I've heavily modified my phone. Please explain how you're unable to root your device.

In an effort to help you get your question answered I am going to ask you some questions that may help. Because, I am, if anything, an awesome, awesome guy. Are you rooted? Are you running a custom ROM? If so, which one? What have you tried to already to fix the issue?
Sometimes when I have faced the authentication error it has been fixed by a reboot and fix permissions. You could also use the LG updater, but some people, including myself have run into some probs(don't you worry, all fixed now).

I've had the same authorization error when I do the manual check for update in my about phone section in the menu. And my phone is all stock...and not rooted and only like a week old. And suggestions? Us it just because I have to wait for them to push the update to me?

Can someone please answer both of our questions, I really want the update but it hasn't been pushed to my two week old LG G2x. Please help.

Lost all of mobil data connection???

Lost all of mobil data connection???
Any ideas???
Sent from my LG-P999 using XDA Premium App
Would help if you listed your ROM you were on, build number as well.
When you say lost all mobile data, do you have any APN's listed? If not, thats your cause. Sometimes you can hit menu while in the APN section and select restore defaults, reboot and your good to go.
With out any more info its kinda hard to help.
Sorry running stock Gingerbread.
It was a program that I installed that caused this problem.

Manually restored IMEI and now roaming

So, I used the method posted by PureMotive to manually get my IMEI back without a backup, and it worked. Now my phone just says I'm roaming all the time. I know other people have had this issue as well, but has anyone figured out how to fix it? Any help would be great! Thanks in advance!

I was in the same situation as you (stuck roaming), but was able to fix it following the steps in that post. YMMV.

I now have the roaming issue fixed, but my issue now is that my 3G drops like after 30 seconds. It doesn't stay connected. It's like it's turning off and on. Any help with that?

This utility is simple and works, both to restore IMEI and to take care of the pesky roaming icon:

Couple things to try:
Odin back to stock and re-provision 1-2 more times. That fixed it for someone.

Well, since I odined back to stock when the problem first came about, I guess I'll have to try reprovisioning some more?
