Hey Kultch, I have a similar sitch, and remedy. I also have a rogers unlocked focus, but I'm using it on Virgin, and I found, (again, and again, since I have factory reset the phone many times), that using the, "Samsung Tools", app fixes my MMS issue every time, (the tool wasn't made for this specific issue, but it seems 2 be a good side effect. You should notice the difference after re-boot
**The issue stems from Samsung not recognizing your new providers sim card, resulting in the phone not resetting the VPN settings like it's suppose 2. You'll also probably notice that your browser defaults to a rogers site**
I can not using

What are we talking about here MMS?? What model of phone do you have, OS release, version #, ect.??
I've done quite a bit of researching but cannot find an answer I'm confident in, so...
Has anyone had success getting telephony to work on these devices? I recently updated to 4.1.2 with the OTA update from this forum. However, before I did that, I was on 4.0.4 (factory), then on the DoubleShot kernel and rom. I rooted, unlocked the boot loader, modified framework-res.apk to enable phone (one of the bools files has a line something like "phone_enabled...>false<...". After doing this, recompiling, and reflashing the rom, I was able to place outgoing "true voice calls" -- no Google Voice, no Groove IP, but a REAL voice call (with 1G or whatever the base mode for voice/SMS is). These calls originated from the VZW number associated with the sim card in the Tab. I was NOT able to receive incoming calls or send/receive SMS text. I tried everything I could think of to get these to work -- no go.
---Fast forward, aver several days of flawless outgoing phone calls---
Flashed the OTA 4.1.2 (and TrustZone and the modem) and everything worked initially. Tried to edit the framework-res.apk again, exactly as before. re-applied the update with CWM (and TZ/modem to be safe) with edited framework-res. CWM said successful, but the device would hang on the boot screen.
Any ideas how to enable phone, or why my previous method didnt work with 4.1.2?
Also, if anyone knows how to get rid of the ongoing WiFi notification (even when connected, wifi off, etc), that would be AWESOME! I know some people long-press the notification -> app info -> kill app, and that works until wifi status changes.
I've actually been trying to figure out the telephony thing myself but could not find it. Glad you did! I'll see if I what I can do also. I'd love to enable telephony on this tab and include it in doubleshotrom. Let me know if you figure it out.
For wifi - view this thread regarding the S3 [HACK] Remove WiFi reminder
It used to work on this tab on 4.0.4, don't know if it changed in 4.1.2
I'm glad you saw this thread MrHyde. I've been following along silently in the development forum (almost to 10 posts haha)
Do you have any ideas what the difference might be between 4.0.4 and 4.1.2 that would cause such a different result (failure to boot after flashing)?
I'm going to try going to the DoubleShot JB kernel (hopefully tonight) and see if it helps. Does the new DoubleShot for JB swap the storage mount points? If it does, how can I disable it? Switching back and forth between installs that don't BOTH do this is becoming a problem for me.
For the failure to boot, you need to install the TZ (trust zone). It's listed under the Requirements heading in the DoubleshotROM thread, or you can grab it from the OTA thread.
Yes the new dsr does swap the sdcards. To stop it, three ways:
1. After flashing, use adb (from CWM) or the built in file manager (TWRP) to delete /system/etc/init.d/ExtSd2InternalSd
2. Open up the ROM zip and go to /system/etc/init.d/ExtSd2InternalSd and delete it, then flash
3. Flash it normally, then use a file manager to delete /system/etc/init.d/ExtSd2InternalSd, then reboot.
Edit: just read it again and completely missed the point lol. I dont know why it would fail, but im gonna take a look. Cant imagine its much
Could you tell me exactly which file contained this phone bool? I can't seem to find it..
Decompile framework-res.apk
Look in /res/values/bools.xml
Toward the bottom, a like says something like "phone_enabled=false"
Remember, doing this, I was only able to make outgoing calls--no incoming, no sms.
You mean "config_voice_capable"?
I get a bootloop.. I think the framework-res.apk isn't recompiling properly. logcat just shows a bunch of errors
Yeah that's it. What are you using to repack?
Can you post your error log?
Now that i have time to look into it more, i think it may have something to do with the non-hlos modem we've flashed for the OTA JB.
do you think this is feasible?
Any way to unlock this I705 for using with Tmobile SIM card?
Any breakthroughs here? I would love to use my TAB as a phone.
Any updates on getting telephony to work? What would happen if you flashed the ROM for the Note II onto the tab 2? Or would this work at all? I would really like to make the tab 2 my primary phone.
Thanks.

I am also thinking the same,I just wanted to flash Galaxy S4 firmware in my galaxy tab 2 7"
Sent from my GT-P3100 using xda premium
I was able to do it with ICS. Ever since I flashed DoubleShot Rom (JB), I haven't been able to figure out how to get it to work again. The method that worked for ICS does not work for JB.
I've only been able to get an outgoing call, but it goes straight to my own vmail. No other success.
Its personally not that important to me, though.
Sent from my SCH-I535 using XDA Premium HD app
I'm getting really close to ending my 25 year business relationship with Verizon. I'm tired of piss-poor service, even though their coverage map indicated solid 4g signal and their representatives confirm I should have good service at my address. It isn't only my home address, but many other locations bi frequent. So one of two things -- either all 5 devices on my account are defective, or their coverage maps are misrepresented. Either way, Sprint is getting better in this area, has the Note II, and is significantly cheaper. And the Tab 3 8.0 is only slightly longer than the SCH-i705.
Few more questions here.
What did you use to modify the framework-res.apk to enable phone?
What did you use to de-compile, is it a special program or what? Same with recompiling.
I wonder what would happen if you got a SIM card that is used for a phone and used it in the tablet. Would this allow the phone calls and text to come in? This is something I would be willing to try if I could get the tablet to the point that it had the dialer on it.
Next why is it when I go to sammobile.com I am unable to find the SCH-I705 listed at all?
Like I mentioned in an earlier post would it be possible to flash the ROM from a Galaxy Note II or similar phone to the Tab 2?
Thanks.

A SIM card from a cell phone might work if cell data was enabled properly.
sammobile does have 1 firmware version available. I dont know if its still there, but I nabbed it when I saw it.
http://garrettek.com/android/SCH-I705/ROMs/4.1.2/I705VRBLL2_I705VZWBLL2_VZW.zip (VRBLL2 JB 4.1.2 official, tested, working)
No. do not flash Note II ROMs on your tab 2. The ONLY device that is remotely compatible with the tab 2 lte is the verizon gs3. Except, if you flash a vzw gs3 rom, your display drivers won't work properly. Everything else will, but display drivers won't. One way around this is to flash the i705 kernel over top a i535 rom. But even then, no guarantees it won't break your tab.
It worked for me back on 4.0.4 (except the kernel).
Ok, I no longer have verizon service and would like to know if there is a way to switch it somehow so I can use CM/other roms.
Since I dont have the verizon 4g service and only using the WIFI.
Hope I worded that right.
Anyone?!
Just installed CleanROM 6 R2. Very nice ROM! I do have a continuing issue I want to put out there, see if any others have it? Confirm it?
This isn't due to the ROM, but with the new ROM installed, the problem continues, so I am curious. (Going to try another soon)
When I have pattern security, and using my Q2 Blueant Bluetooth headset, I try to make a voice call. (S Voice disabled, Assistant used for voice commands currently) When trying to make the call, I hear the tone from the phone, to start talking, but I get a "Not supported by phone" message on the headset.
If I attempt the same test, with NO lock screen security it works fine.
I attempted this test, with pattern security on a S4 for ATT, works. S4 for Verizion, NOT working. Same for the S3.
I test with the same bluetooth on a Verizon Rezound (GF phone), works perfectly.
Why does it fail on the S3, with stock 4.2.1 and now with CleanROM? I figured it was some kind of software from Verizon... maybe the firmware somehow? Remaining software of some kind?

I don't have this BT issue on Clean or any other TW or ASOP rom. I use PIN lockscreen. I have used my ERA and Blueant BT with Cyberon voice commander, and both work fine. On ASOP, I get a 5 second delay in acknowledging the command bit it eventually works.

I hope it helps you. I have been very frustrated since the JB update with BT voice dialing. ICS worked 100% better. Both S voice and Google now have been very disappointing for voice dialing. I find Cyberon to work more than 95% of the time.

Yeah, I hope so too. Maybe when CleanROM is updated with MF1 I will find out.
I have been happy with Assistant, as far as quality of voice dialing interpretation. I even bought the paid version, although not needed really.
S Voice is horrible, the S3 version. My buddy has the S4 on ATT, and S Voice is WAY better. (And my BT works with patter lock on his S4. But NO WAY I got to ATT. Hahaa)

There are a couple of TW roms, including Bone Stock and Hyperdrive that give you the option to choose S4 S Voice to install. If you are on a stock kernel, you can probably flash the MF1 firmware and not bork your camera. You should check the clean rom thread to see if anyone has done that yet.

Yep, I am watching the forum. Don't want to be the first one to try it, I don't yet have the skills to fix undocumented problems.
I think my problem though, is the Bluetooth security bypass. Not the Voice app..... but time will tell.
Just flashed the MF1 firmware and the Stock ROM for MF1, and no luck on bluetooth!
Anyone out there with a BlueAnt Q2 bluetooth and a S3, stock or another ROM that could test for me? Killing me not being able to control my phone on the motorcycle, my HTC never had the problem, only S3 and S4 on Verizon... S3 and S4 on ATT works.
I'll put a bounty on this... need to figure it out!

I'm working on adding support for a WiFi only build of CM-11 for the SM-T325.
I am making no attempt at this time to add cellular support because I don't own the device and it would be very painful to try to do that without the device. However, a WiFi only version seems possible and I want to use this thread to validate that.
As a first step, I'm looking for people to test that this recovery works for them on a SM-T325: cwmr-20140528-mondrianlte.
You'll need to unzip the file and then flash it in Odin. If you don't know how to do that, then a test build is probably not for you!
Yes..it works!!!

i can confirm that this recovery does indeed function as expected...i installed my rom (ran into a weird "android is upgrading" bootloop but it eventually loaded...that may be my experimental multiwindow mod i'm using or the fact that i have completely deleted the touchwiz launcher) as well as created a backup (didnt restore) & all seems to be in order. I may be overreaching a bit about my abilities but im sure if u get a working wifi version going for us then the least i can do is get the cellular working...on a sort of related note would u happen to know if its possible to output through hdmi while in recovery mode? As far as this build is conncerned...anything else u may need tested just give me a shout
edit: looked for the backup which is usually on the internal sd (read:accessible from pc) and although the folder is there its empty...finally found it in "data-media-clockworkmod" & just wanted to know is this normal?

That is normal (it is independent of users and /sdcard is specific to user 0 of the tablet).
If you want to work on the radio, you'll need to be able to build sm-t320. If you get that to build, I'll push up my current repos for the sm-t325.
Would you mind booting into recovery and grabbing a dmesg (/proc/kmsg) for me?
Hopefully I can post a cm 11 build in a couple of hours and we can see how that works.

You can (obviously) post a link to the thread. I would prefer that you didn't link to a specific version as I hope to post more test builds here (although so far only 3 people have downloaded it which shows either a lack of interest or a lack of early adopters).

woohoo...well i got data working but calls are a no go as of right now. i can assure u the lack of activity in this thread is definitely not due to lack of intereset....more than likely its because its barely been a full day not to mention that there are not that many of us lte users but best believe once word gets round they'll come running.

edit 2: calls not working yet & but i did get the phone app to appear & sms are also good to go (no mms at the moment)...got rid of the error message on outgoing calls (incoming wont even ring at all) but now it just force closes before it dials out (even with a different dialer)

Long story short...still no voice. Now for the rest of it...i've gotten it to the point where i can dial out but neither the mic nor speaker works when the call is answered by the other party (i think this is due to the fact that it reports that the call ends as soon as it begins on my device). As far as receiving calls is concerned...NOTHING. I have even gone as far as flashing a note 3 modem (yeah i know...stupid :silly in an attempt to fix it & still no go...i just recently found the build prop edit to allow outgoing calls so hopefully the rest is as simple as editing the build prop. Speaking of which...getting data/phone working is NOT quite so simple but i've gotten it down to the bare minimum number of changes that need to be made. So far we need to add the "lib-qcril-hook-oem.so" from the n9005 cm11 rom & the "libsec-ril.so" as well "libril.so" from the stock T325 rom (which is enough by itself to get data working) as well as decompile the framework-res.apk & and change both the sms & voice config bools enable to true (which i'm sure there is a flag for in source)...this makes the phone app appear as well as allows u to send texts then we need to add the line "ro.telephony.ril.v3=newDialCode" to the prop which allows us to dial out. Well...thats where i'm at as of right now so its back to google for me to put together the rest of the pieces unless u have some insight from working on devices with radios that can be of some assistance

Long story short...still no voice. Now for the rest of it...i've gotten it to the point where i can dial out but neither the mic nor speaker works when the call is answered by the other party (i think this is due to the fact that it reports that the call ends as soon as it begins on my device). As far as receiving calls is concerned...NOTHING. I have even gone as far as flashing a note 3 modem (yeah i know...stupid :silly in an attempt to fix it & still no go...i just recently found the build prop edit to allow outgoing calls so hopefully the rest is as simple as editing the build prop. Speaking of which...getting data/phone working is NOT quite so simple but i've gotten it down to the bare minimum number of changes that need to be made. So far we need to add the "lib-qcril-hook-oem.so" from the n9005 cm11 rom & the "libsec-ril.so" as well "libril.so" from the stock T325 rom (which is enough by itself to get data working) as well as decompile the framework-res.apk & and change both the sms & voice config bools enable to true (which i'm sure there is a flag for in source)...this makes the phone app appear as well as allows u to send texts then we need to add the line "ro.telephony.ril.v3=newDialCode" to the prop which allows us to dial out. Well...thats where i'm at as of right now so its back to google for me to put together the rest of the pieces unless u have some insight from working on devices with radios that can be of some assistance

Keep an eye on this post...i just jumped off the deep in end & tried to install the hlte version as is (with kernel swap of course ) so it may take me a minute to get back (i have a nandroid but like to make the cjanges manually so i know the exact process & origin of files). Well i'll be damned...incoming calls work (complete with mic & speaker) with note 3 version of cm11! Outoing still seem to be an issue but this clears up a few gray areas i had concerning whether the ril files matched the modem & so on...i had the bright idea of swapping a few of the framework files then just thought they were so similar that the whole thing should boot. Anyway....shouldnt be long to figure out what the hold up is now bu tgive me a few & i'll post the log after i test a ouple of things then flash back to the other setup
edit: Aaaaaaannnnddd....done! added the line i spoke about in my previous post to the build.prop & now both incoming & outgoing calls are working with the N9005 version...just out of curiosity i'm about to go through & see whats broken the first of which i notice is rotation (i personally hate portrait) but seems like everything else is as well including wifi, camera, lid, bluetooth, & ironically speaker audio (video playback & apollo play no audio through loudspeaker...both work through wired headset). I will still get that logcat a lil later...at this point i dont think it has anything else to do with the build prop because i had already added most of the stuff i found missing in ours from the hlte & it didnt work. I'm thinking maybe another lib file that needs to be swapped...perhaps maybe something in framework

The outgoing call issue is likely just that the audio configuration is missing the use cases for voice calls. That's why I wanted the logcat because that should be easy to add.
When you're done with the hlte version (which is actually not a great idea for a daily driver as there are other things that are different that you may not notice (two biggest I can think of is that the hardware is different and several of the HAL libraries need to enable/disable different files in /sys/ and the networking configuration is different which may break some kernel/user-space interactions).
But if you can send me the logcat, the build.prop that you are happiest with and detailed information about anything else that you chnaged (e.g. exactly what you changed in frameworks so I'm not guessing) then I'll take a look at another test build.
It appears that 4G doesn't work with FreedomPop and most custom ROMs. It seems like either custom roms are detected by FreedomPop and disactivated from 4G, or (more likely) most ROMs have the wrong 4G information wrong for FreedomPop.
It could well be that most roms incorrectly detect the FreedomPop 4G network as Sprint. I know a similar problem exists with Credo Mobile, in which case changing the APN network information solves the issue.
Moreover, on reddit someone claims 4G works on cyanogen 7 but not on later version. Maybe that could help solve the issue?
I'd be very happy if one of you could help me figure what is wrong, or if you got 4G to work with a custom ROM on FreedomPop.
Solved!
Basing myself on the Boost Mobile APN fix, I made a new fix that should give 4G/LTE to FreedomPop users.
Download the FreedomPop fix here.
Just download the fix, put it on your phone, boot into your recovery (I suggest Philz), select Install Zip, and install the fix.
This new fix, compared to the previous one has the benefit of providing an extra APN (n.f6.ispsn) that should give superior performances. Moreover, the fix should be more robust, being based on the Boost Mobile fix instead of the Ting fix. Finally, it will also display "FreedomPop" (instead of Sprint) as your provider.
The previous method is also listed here in case it is of interest to you.
Previous method:
I found a way to get 4G on FreedomPop with Cyanogenmod 11! Just follow these simple instructions:
1. Download the Ting APN fix for Android 4.4 on your PC
2. Unzip the Ting APN fix somewhere.
3. Replace the apns-conf.xml file in system/etc/ directory of the unzipped Ting APN fix with this file: http://www.mediafire.com/view/25xozc3p6okf8zw/apns-conf.xml
4. Re-zip the Ting APN fix (with the modified apns-conf.xml), and put in on your phone.
5. Boot to Philz recovery, select Install Zip, and install the modified Ting APN fix. Voila! 4G/LTE should work (make sure to enable it in settings/mobile networks!)
Note that this will work on the S3, but may not work on other phones. To obtain proper apns-conf.xml file, I recommend you flash to 4.3 stock rom, and copy the apns-conf.xml file from /system/etc/apns-conf.xml file of your android and use that instead for step 3.
Freedompop phone to a Sprint Account
Hey guys, I have a nice Freedompop Galaxy s3 that came straight from FP rooted with their proprietary ROM. But the FP ROM is designed to use VOIP to make all calls and seems to do away with any actual cdma(?) dialer altogether. It's a nice phone for $200.00 and I think I'd like to keep it. But when I tried to activate it on my Sprint account, they get an error on their end and don't recognize it.
This question is for you hardcore developers out there. How can I completely reprogram it to a rooted sprint firmware with a dialer and activate it in place of my older HTC 4G LTE. But also "save" the FP ROM for restore if it won't activate. I have til October to return it, so I thought I'd play.
You should also know 1) that FP definitely runs on the sprint network and seems to work exclusively through their 3g/4g lte service (hence the proprietary ROM and no solid phone connectivity); 2) this galaxy is marked as "refurbished" (in pristine condition) and has no Sprint logo on it all (they asked me about this on the sprint chat site); 3) the battery drained pretty fast and the phone would get warm (my HTC never had these issues, though it seems to be common among s3 owners); 4) but all that being said, it's super fast (cf. to EVO) and I think I might enjoy the upgrade at this price.
Thanks for thinkin on it.Masterhanger

If I understand the issue, you got yourself a FreedomPop phone that you wish to activate with Sprint (NOT with FreedomPop)?
If so, I see two potential issues:
1. Your phone IMEI is with FreedomPop, and thus no longer recognized by Sprint. You'll have to ask Sprint to get your IMEI back, if possible.
2. You are using a FreedomPop ROM, and that ROM doesn't allow Sprint activation. Hopefully the actual phone is the same as the Sprint version and only the ROM is different. If you go to Settings and the model number is SPH-L710 then you are probably good. Try installing a Sprint stock ROM and then activate. I strongly recommend you backup your entire phone (including boot and efs) before you do that through, preferably through Odin - but be warned that you may hard brick your phone.
Works, but no sprint optimizer, profile update, or PRL
Hey Merudo,
I really appreciate the fix, thank you for that! However, as you can see in the title, there is no sprint optimizer, profile update or PRL update. That is really important stuff as the networks changes and upgrades all the time. Is there any way that file can be included too? Maybe I'm missing something, but the Tink fix said that there should be a sprint network update for the profile and PRL next to the CyanogenMod updates in About phone in the settings, but I never saw that when I put that on my phone. I have a Galaxy S3 phone I bought from freedomPop, but I absolutely hated the Samsung ROM so I wanted to flash CyanogenMod and now I'm having problems. I hope you have some ideas or can clear things up. Thanks again for the fix, and I saw your post on CyanogenMod site about this, that would be awesome if they did put this file into the ROM!

Hi ColdHot,
Sadly, profile/PRL update on custom ROM is a problem on all Sprint providers (Including Boost, Credo, FreedomPop, Ting, Virgin Mobile, and Sprint itself).
As far as I know, no custom ROM has built-in support for profile/PRL update for any of these providers.
I believe most people deal with the issue by switching back to a stock rom each time they wish to update profile or PRL. I personally switch back and forth between two full backups I make with Philz Touch Recovery.
Please do tell me if you ever find a better way!

OH MY GOODNESS THANK YOU SO MUCH MAN!!! I've seriously tried everything to get my 4G to work on my cyanogenmod infused freedompop (although its a sprint deivce) even by inputting my own apn's I found on the web. I was seriously even considering switching back to sprint just because 3g speeds just weren't cutting it. This finally did the trick. Thanks so much!
So ur fkashed to boostmobile with a freedom pop lte card in getting 4g lte? And boostmobile 3g and voice??

Wicked X on Freedompop
I was running Wicked Sensations when I switched to FP. Nothing but headaches all around. Couldn't place calls off wifi, no 4G, PRL or Profile updates. FP support was useless at trying to resolve.
I then switched to Wicked X and the phone is running smooth. Optimizer, 4G, PRL and Profile updates are all working fine. I'm getting better battery life than my wife's phone we just purchased from FP running their ROM. Seems to be a good ROM so far for FP service.
Thanks, Merudo.
For anyone wondering, I applied this on a 5.0 rom on my S3 and it seems to work great.

thanks for your information,
can you set the messaging (from freedompop) as defaulted dialer?
I tried the cynammod rom, when I used messaging app to dial the original dialer alway launched out, it is very annoying, so I have to flash back to freedompop rom.
has 5.0 the same problem? thanks!
New Fix Disclaimer
Hey Merudo,
I may get an S4 to use with FP and noticed your old fix had a disclaimer that it may not work on non-S3s. Could you clarify if the new fix has the same disclaimer? I see your comment in the .sh file says it handles universal lte builds but just want to make sure before purchasing otherwise I'll probably just go with an S3.
Not working... loosing my mind=(
I just moved and should be looking for work but, instead, I'm loosing my mind trying to make this work on my Sprint S4 running and, albeit, weekly build of CM12. For the love of god, has anybody figured anything out with that? It's really hard to network when I have no way of getting back to people. Not to mention how much I just spent on this phone.
Please help
I haven't been able to get any APN fix to work for freedompop on any Lollipop rom on my S4.
I get 3G without applying any fix, and either nothing happens, or I can't connect at all when using one of the 3 APN fixes I found.
Not sure why they don't work.
Can't seem to get data 3G/4G to work.
Can't seem to get data 3G/4G to work. When I disable wifi, I lose my Sprint(Freedompop) connection. I cant connect to the internet, etc.
I've tried these so far but nothing worked for me:
Universal_vmu_ApnFix-v.R2.zip
Freedompop APNs fix.zip
I love how fast this ROM is and want to make it my daily use phone.
Is there a specific process for getting it to work? Just want to make sure I'm not missing something.
Any advice/help is appreciated.
Freedompop (Sprint) SPH-L710 (Samsung Galaxy S3)
CM version 12-20150120-UNOFFICIAL-d2spr (lollipop 5.0.2 unofficial)
Baseband version: L710VPUDND8
EDIT: Is there a specific way to install to get it to work or? Or any other info I can provide that will help?
My current install went like this: wipe cache, wipe devik, factory reset, install CM12 ROM, install Freedompop APNs fix.zip, install gapps-1p-20141109-signed.zip, install Freedompop messaging, confirm registration, disable wifi, and no 3g/4g.
030415 Edit: My issue is resolved! I dialed *#*#4636#*#* and the TESTING screen came up immediately. Under "Set preferred network type:", I switched it to: LTE/GSM/CDMA auto (PRL) in the dropdown menu. I then turned off my WIFI, and LTE immediately showed up! I tested going to a webpage and it works!! I cannot thank you (shakim24 and XDA) enough!!! Turning the WIFI back on is a little tricky and requires some patience, but it will come back on. :good: :victory: :highfive:
Works for Nexus5 CM12 weekly
I am using multi rom with stock as the primary rom. I used that to update PRL and everything works as expected without any modifications. However, the CM12 data settings did not work without the FIX attached in this thread.
What ROM?

Can you tell me what ROM you used, because I have not been able to find one for my S3
Should I download the fix from the attachment or on the link?
They seem to be different.
UPD: one in attachment seem to be better (more settings in the apns-conf.xml)
I'm also attaching another version of this fix with even more APNs for Freedompop. It equals the setup that came with original FreedomPop ROM
i am having same issue and none of these PRL's work. Can you tell me which fix you used before modifying the settings in TESTING menu

You can only make/receive calls when Data is enabled? It doesnt work via wifi? While data is turned off, open the Freedompop Messaging app and see if indicates that you are registered. What happens specifically when you try to make a call? (what errors or messages do you get)
