Hey I've heard you can put a T-Mobile Sim card in the Verizon versions of the HTC 8X and it works just fine has anybody tried this?
I want to do this so I can get the wireless charging.
The Verizon version of the 8X ships unlocked, which means that it will work with any SIM cards.
Yes and no, you can send and receive calls and SMS, and even days, but no MMS. The add mms button is in the settings menu however on the Verizon HTC 8X it will not let you save the settings.

I have a HTC One S originally from Fido but unlocked and using on the Bell network in Canada. The phone will work fine for most of a day and then without warning calls go straight to voice mail, but I wont receive voice mail notificaitons. Then someone will text using whats app because text messages wont come through. If I reboot then I get the voicemails. This is geting infuriating. Any one have any ideas because otherwise I love the phone. I have switched to a 4 G sim card as I was told the older sim card may have been causing the problems. No fix.

I'd recommend a custom ROM. I had problems on stock with calls and notifications not coming through, but never once had a problem using a custom Sense based ROM. Alternately, you can do what I was doing previously, which is open up GTalk periodically, and if you're signed out due to the process being killed, sign out in the app, then sign back in and your google notifications will return.
Native text app didn't allow me to send texts, using Google messenger app - I can send but still Can't Receive texts. I can get texts sometimes if the person is next to me... Any one have a solution?
Anyone found solution for can't receive texts - love my x2..
And want to use it as primary phone again, but need texting for my job. Any one found new solution?
Thanks

Yo I got t-mobile service on my mediapad x2 texts are working fine, maybe check ur APN settings, and I have it sim slot 1
Thanks for reply
I have 703-L android 5.0
Last year: tried many texting apps, senior XDA member checked my APN settings, SIM in slot one (it worked in prior phone, and everything else working except receiving texts, once I moved the SIM to my new X2.
ANYONE:
I was curious if Marshmallow 6.0 upgrade could be a fix? or has a ROM come out that could fix this issue? Also wondering, should a non-developer, attempt rooting and adding ROMs? Or am I asking for trouble? I want to clean out garbage apps and have just a regular basic android OS! does anyone know X2 experts that can do these fixes (if so: contact details and costs if you know? I love this X2 phone and am willing to pay if someone can fix it.
Thank you in advance
Gary
If you have 2 Sim Cards for one phone number, SMS can only be received by one of them.
This can be changed by a phone call to t-mobile.
Hope someone can help me with this. So I got my phone yesterday and I set it all up and everything and I realised that I had bars but not data, no texting, or calling. So I did some research and remembered that I probably needed to change the APN, the default APN was set to Verizon and I have Xfinity Mobile so that made sense but it didn't work so I set it to Xfinity Mobiles APN and data works now I can call, receive calls, and even text others and they'll receive my texts. But for some reason I am unable to get any texts from anyone, no MMS or SMS. I'm really not sure what I'm missing, I don't want to have to go through my carrier and deal with their crap so any help is appreciated.

I believe you're going to have to as am I. Need to contact carrier and tell them you need to be a CDMA-less device.

See this article and especially the comments section. https://www.droid-life.com/2018/11/06/oneplus-6t-verizon-sms-issues/
zandander is right, but more specifically; It looks like either time will resolve as they add the device through natural attrition, (24-48 Hrs) or contact them (877-894-4946) and request feature # 83856 "CDMA_LESS"

I got this phone unlocked from OnePlus how would I ask Xfinity Mobile for a CDMA-less 7 Pro?

My understanding from talking to Xfinity mobile service people is that they have no power to change the device to CDMA-less (one of the reasons they only support iPhones for byod). This was about a year ago, but they still haven't added any Android byod support so I don't things have changed.
Verizon is phasing out CDMA all together so it might not be a problem for much longer: https://www.verizonwireless.com/support/knowledge-base-218813/
Do they make you change your plan if you are on a legacy unlimited data plan to go CDMA-less?
Hey OnePlus fam,
I just thought I would put this out as PSA for anyone on Verizon and having issues with SMS or MMS, as there is little information out there on this for our specific phones.
If you are unable to send or receive any text messages it is most like that the "CDMA-Less" feature needs to be activated.
You can call Verizon and ask them to enable "CDMA-Less" to your account.
Hope this helps
I had to get a new sim card that fixed my problem
Here are also a few links too; the first two are for a 6T but to concept still applies.

VZW information
https://opendevelopment.verizonwireless.com/faqs?s=LTE
Had the same issue.
Called Verizon and asked them to enable this device as CDMA-less.
Been working perfect since.
Same here. I inserted my Verizon sim in the international version. Data at 50Mbps, Voice, Visual Voicemail and outgoing text messages worked. If it doesn't work for you, make sure you are using slot 1. It may matter. If you have a very old sim, you might need a new one.
I called Verizon and carefully explained that incoming sms was not functional as this was a next generation phone for a world where Verizon turns off their CDMA at the end of 2019 and SMS is routed over LTE. I instructed him to make sure "CDMA-less" was available both in the billing account and the network account. After a bit of digging he found the provisioning settings. Seconds after the phone was provisioned, sms started flooding in the stock message app. Also make sure IMS Basic Visual Voicemail is on your account if VM is giving you trouble. I use VZW Message+ (Verizon Messages) for sms as I can text from a PC also and it will restore previous sms.
By definition the phone uses VOLTE so there is no setting for HD Voice in the phone. That feature is required on your Verizon account but you would have to be switching from an ancient phone not to already have that. I cannot locate any option for Wifi calling and it does not work in airplane mode. I have a google voice number which allows Wifi calling. Interestingly it errors when the phone is in airplane mode but works when cell service is on. It reports "Wifi Call" and appears to use the stock dialer when initiated from the Voice app. Somehow Voice is even more tightly integrated with the stock dialer now than just trapping and routing international calls. This is a bug of sorts as my Moto phone on 8.0 could call in airplane mode with wifi on.
Google Duo appears to be integrated in the dialer but I haven't tried with my wife's Pixel to see if I can switch to Duo while on a regular voice call.
Bootloader unlock was simple: Tap Build # 6x, Developer Options - OEM unlocking, adb reboot recovery, fastboot oem unlock [This erases the phone]
The 7 Pro is an amazing device! Truly the most amazing. I'm really excited. The phone is super super slippery and a drop magnet. It does come with a TPU case.
I'm going to sell my kid's mint 5T and upgrade him too!
BT sucks worse than the Moto phone but I think that is an Android thing as my wife's pixel as issues to with her car. Contacts not syncing and calls not going through while connected to BT. Just have to do work arounds when I have some time.
Hoping video is fixed for the wide camera. They are amazing; but then, I'm coming from a Moto phone which has the worst cameras. Sony knows what they are doing.
Sorry to wake an old thread but did not want to start a new one.
I have verizon and have cdma-less provisioning done already. Have HD voice on the account as well. SMS works fine but I can only send MMS not receive them.
Ive tried moving sim card to other slot, tried reboot, tried factory reset, tried different apps...nothing.
The only time MMS fully works is when I am in safe mode. Anyone have any ideas on what it could be?
Thank you
Try looking in permissions at what app has permissions.
Try the Verizon message plus app

Permissions were all good, sms/mms permission is in one.
I tried verizon app, MMS works, dont really like the app though, and the customization didnt help me like it enough to keep it.
Super weird that verizon messages work but not the stock app or the Mood SMS app.

I had to call Verizon 2 or 3 times for them to get it right
I downloaded a couple other SMS apps and they all work fine. So leads me to believe its just something weird with the stock app and with Mood SMS. I will switch to QKSMS for now and requested assistance from Mood SMS so they could take a look. Thanks all.
I'm going to guess MMS didn't work with that app while you were on wifi? Some apps don't know how to route MMS data properly when there both data and wifi available.
It's an option that has to be enabled on the account for Verizon customers, it's the cdma-less option. It took me a couple representatives til one of knew what I was talking about lol
I think his issue is slightly different as he can recieve sms but not mms and it varies on the app he's using.

No that I already checked. I still have not figured out why I cannot receive MMS on the stock app or on mood SMS. Mood had not replied to my email. I switched to qksms and have no issues anymore.
So ya if anyone else runs into something like I did, try different SMS apps
Yup, I learned this very quickly when I got the OnePlus 6t. Just getting them to understand that the phone was certified on VZW. Then 4 techs before one knew what to do. I think they now can address quickly even over chat.

If I get Verizon prepaid will they be able to do this? I had Verizon prepaid once in the past and customer service was much worse than regular Verizon wireless. I am pretty sure that mvnos can't do it but I'm hoping Verizon prepaid can.

I'm not sure
Yeah, there's a lot more to this than enabling CDMA-less. Before about a month ago data/sms/MMS wasn't working on Android 10 based custom roms and MMS still doesn't work unless you use Messages+.
I get both fine I just have issues with them being received after the phone goes idle for a while. My issues are small stupid crap mile messenger not closing with home button all the time and and Gboard sometimes won't type into the field I'm in

MMS message like video, GIF, picture those are getting send properly.
I can receive a SMS but unable to send any.
Can you please help me out ?

1. Both Sim card have network and data enable and bills are paid ..everything working fine.
2.i can make call on both sim
3. i can receive call on both Sim
4.Both Card cannot send SMS ... but working fine sending MMS.
Since the beginning, I have in mind that my issue came from a ''hidden settings'' from the phone that might not be set properly because SMS was working fine in the first 2-3 days of owning this device.
Both sim card work good when I put them on my Old Asus Zenfone 3 Zoom. I can send SMS from the Zenfone.
My device is Vivo Iqoo Neo 855 (Model: V1936A) Firmware version # PD1936C_A_1.5.39 (Monster UI / Funtouch OS 9)

You have the same issue ?
Whats is your Device ?
check your SMSC be sure that it is correct.if so than u should preform FACTORY RESET SETTING (without losing ur deta of course)
Finally I've called my carrier and they Reset my profil. That's fixed my issue for few days. Afterward, it's coma back so called my carrier a second time, reset my profil again and than I change SMS app by default and this issue never came back for 3 month.
So basicly, in my mind, the default sms app of this Vivo Iqoo messed up with my carrier profil.
