Hi, I've been fighting this problem for about a month. I'm certainly really frustrated.
I detected some time ago that, when someone tries to make a voice call yo my number, my phone seems not to receive the call (or the sequence required for the phone app to show the incomming call is broken at some point, beginning at the radio fw). I've tried many things, like flashing other radios, installing rils, reinstalling the rom (I'm using Revolution HD 7.0.4). The problem still happends every time.
Of course the first step I took was make a complaint to the phone company (Movistar Argentina); they make several tests, and finally change the sim card for a new one. Same as before.
The sim card and the company service seems to work fine, since when I put the same sim card in another phone, I had no problem to receive calls.
I thought full stock restore may be helpful, but I really don't know how to do that since I suspect not everything is placed back as it was OTB. For instance, I don't know how can be the radio+ril can be restored to factory defaults.
Any suggestions will be very appreciated.
Best regards,
Dario
If you can find access to the ruu for your region then you can just run that and it will restore everything to default. I'm not sure if since you are in a different country that you need a different ruu. If you can use the the American 2.47.502.7, I can provide a link. Also have you tried backing up just stuff you need from your sd card and wiping it. Sometimes there can be a file there that will cause issues.

Thanks four your reply.
I actually used the stock rom (I bought the device in America) for several months until change to Revolution ROM, so if you can provide me with a link I'll be grateful. I tried downloading the update from HTC official site, but seems to be an upgrade only application, I cant really tell. It ended up stopping with an error code.
I'll try also completely formatting the sd card.
Here you go. Make sure to install HTC sync on pc and leave it running in background. Then just plug in phone and run from pc
Ruu US 2.47.502.7

Thanks a lot, start downloading right now.
I've just installed Revolution 6.3.3, since I read in some other post that it comes with a RIL, and there's a suggestion about which radio version to use with it. So, after formatting every partition, sd card included, I flashed the proper radio and RHD. For the moment, it seems the phone is working fine, but can't be sure about ir since previously it also had some "god moments". Anyway, I'll keep watching how it behaves for a couple of days.
As a measure of last resort I'll install the stock rom Gizmoe kindly provided.
Thanks again, I'll report back with the results!

So far, so good
After a while, even with a clean RHD 6.3.3 installation, I'm not receiving calls again.
I'm able to make a call, receive sms, use data connection (wifi and 3g), pretty much everything but receive a voice call.
Don't really what to do anymore, I'm considering a hw problem now...

Have you tried reversing to s on. Wiping SD card and then running the ruu I provided. If it still happens with complete stock then I would agree its a hardware or sim card issue.

Ok I've just reversed to s-on with aahk-13012012. The scripts automatically downloaded HTC ATT stock rom, and it seems to be the same version you provided me earlier.
Then, updated to the latest rom published in HTC support site.
Again, as under a clean RHD rom, the first couple of hours everything works fine. So I'm gonna test it every day for 3 days in a row and see what happends.
Thanks again!

Nope, sadly not so many hours later, same problem as before.
I'm going back to RHD, s-off and root, an run an app I found in this forum that allows me to check some system logs. I'm interesting in monitoring the radio log.
Ask your carrier for a new sim. They should just give you one. That's what I would try next.

Actually, before trying flashing new roms or downgrading to previous versions, I asked for a new simcard. I'm using the new one now for about a week

Ok. I assume you have tried different radios and even probably switched when ruu was flashed.

Yes, I've tried many radios and rils.
I can't really tell when exactly the incomming calls problem started, but since the last time I remember not having the problem, I changed the service provider and tried installing AOSP (aospX-1.0.0-BR4-DHD), with the corresponding radio and ril. I didn't liked it, so I went back to RHD (again, with the proper radio). That's why I thought reversing to stock sw could reverse the problems, if any of them were caused by rom/radio installations.
Now I'm back to RHD 7.0.3, and don't really thing flashing some other radio will help at all, but is there some recommendation about it I'll certainly consider it.
As allways, I'm receiving calls again. That could last for several hours.
It would be very useful if there is any script or app to debug real-time events related to incomming calls, so I can figure out what is really happening.
Thanks in advance, once again
Yeah it seems something in the hardware is malfunctioning. You have ruled out the software.

Something strange (at least for me) happend.. Before flashing back RHD, I formatted all partitions (even made a new sd partition and formatted it). So, as far as I know, that completely wipes every peace of data.
But... my home wireless connected automatically!! no need to enter password or select it from the list of available wifi networks. Don't know where that configurations are stored, but it seems something is not being wiped up as I expected...

I did a full wipe and flashed the CM10.1 nightly released for the d2vzw this morning. When it rebooted I had no cell service. Looking in settings i have the proper IMEI number but my cell number is listed as 000-000-1361, MIN is 1361, PRL is 1. what can I do to fix it? I tried restoring a nandroid but the result is the same. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Any one try Odin back to stock?
I have a similar issue and I have been going around and around with it without any luck. I restored my latest backup and I still have 000-000-3257 with a PRL of 1. I will try the ops recommendation and will report back.
Odin to stock is my next move unless someone else can think of something else to try.
Try clearing dalvik cache in recovery. Fixed it for me on AOKP. Had the exact same thing where my phone number was a bunch of zeroes. Still had service though when I hit the home button to bypass the activation screen.

I tried to remove the sim, and boot, and readd the sim and boot but no go. I will try it again but then I think I am going back to stock to see if that works.
Everything still works fine. No need to get worried......it just doesn't report your phone number accurately. Its not like it actually effects functionality. I ran it with an f'ed phone number for 3 days. Everything ran fine. Don't sweat it. If its a problem, wait until tomorrows official nightly comes out tonight and you'll be set.

My issue is it is affecting my functionality. My phone is not working and whenever I call out I get a generic message saying my phone is not active.
I restored a backup from when I first rooted. Now my phone number is listed properly and when I get into a 4G coverage area I can get data, but I still can't call out and it shows I am roaming when I am in a 3G area.
OP on CM10.1 says that dirty flashing Unofficial 10.1 build 12/17/12 will restore data. Any luck with this fix?

I was very unlucky and the dirty flash didnt work for me. However, I did have a backup of my IMEI and was able to flash it back to my phone.
I ran into the same problem after flashing 10.1... lost IMEI and stuck on roaming, had no backup.
To fix it i did the following
1) Odin back to stock
2) use this tool http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1867442
3) reprovish the phone using this code in the dialer *2767*3855#
IMEI restored and no longer on roaming

THANK YOU!. I could not get the IMEI/ERI tool to work, but I did get *2767*3855# code to work. I had to roll back to a older version of the official rom (I think rolling back the radio would have been OK) but I am not up and working.

I flashed back to stock as well and then used the same number to reprovision. After that everything worked fine it fixed the roaming, incorrect number, PRL, and all. I never lost my IMEI so I didnt do that step. but if you flash back to the cm 10.1 before they fix the data it will happen again :laugh:

I have been unable to send or receive MMS messages to/from anyone. Outgoing messages just get stuck at "sending" and I've had multiple people try to send me an MMS. I believe my APN settings are correct based on other threads here. Has anyone else seen/dealt with/have a solution for this bug?

I saw some commits related to unicode encoding with the MMS app. It's possible (Disclaimer: I am not a dev, these are just theories) that these have something to do with the MMS issue. You could extract the MMS.apk from a prior build (where your MMS was still functional) and push it to /system/apps, rename your current MMS.apk to MMS.bak (just in case), set permissions to R-W, R, R, then reboot. If that works then we know there's an issue with the CM commits to the MMS.apk.

What that means is that your APN's might not be configured properly. Compare them to the ones listed here. If that doesn't fix the MMS issue then we'll have to investigate further.

I've put in a trouble call with AT&T hopefully they find something....
So according to AT&T there are no network problems but my phone is not responding to push notifications from them. They want me to bring it into a "core" store to have it checked out (not going to happen on behalf of the rooting/custom ROM). I'm wondering if my Android ID#/device hostname may have changed when I did a full wipe? Although I'm not even sure that would have any effect on my problem. I'm just tossing out ideas.

If I were you I'd just make a nandroid backup of my current setup, transfer that (and any other important data) to either my external or PC, ODIN back to stock and head over to an AT&T store. Just my two cents. You can always re-root and flash a custom ROM again. If you'd corrupted something through flashing (not saying you did, just a thought) getting AT&T to straighten it out and then going custom from there might be your best option.

Sinnce AT&T uses the IMEI number as the ID for the device, that wouldn't be the issue you aren't receiving push messages. I agree with mrfeuss, back up the phone, flash the stock rom, and go have AT&T fix it on their end. Then you can re-root and install your custom ROM again. Better to have them look at it than live without MMS.

Just used Odin to flash back to stock. After the Odin reboot how long should it take for the phone to start up? I've been sitting on the ATT logo screen for a few minutes now.... please don't tell me I bricked....
Never mind, figured out my own mistake..... Always factory reset/clear data before flashing!
Ok. First off, system sounds are totally fine. Any and all music etc works. The problem comes in when making a call, its just gone. It doesn't ring or anything at all, other side hears nothing as do I. Restarts didn't fix, nor did flashing the modem. Previously a restore fixed it this time it didn't though. What could it be? Is it possibly just a software glitch? This one has me stuck since it just randomly happened, both times it just occurred for no reason.
Maybe the ear speaker is gone. Try to make a call on speaker.

It's on StraightTalk. The phone is Unlocked it had MA7 which worked fine also tried LF6 but no change at all. Tried another ST SIM as well, same issues and the SIM worked in the other phone. In fact both did. It was not on stock. It is on PAC V19.
Try radio version UCMC1. I don't think UCLF6 is supported on that version of PAC is it? I would also check your APN settings if you haven't done so already. Otherwise its probably a hardware problem.

Even if it was APN it shouldn't suddenly unset. As for modem AFAIK it should work since they get signal. I may end up just doing an ODIN to total stock then checking it. If it still doesn't work I would guess hardware but that means I now have an expensive ass brick that literally nothing has changed on and it no longer works properly.

the answer has been given repeatedly and stickied, if having issues on roms and cant figure out if its hw or sw, wipe everything and restore to stock via odin, if still having probs then its more than likely a hw problem, flashing stock w/odin is really not that hard todo on the skyrocket and the howto is also stickied

Don't be a moron. v19 is 4.1.2, it was running UXUMA7 which is 4.1.2 when the error occurred. I tried UCLF6 which is ICS but it changed nothing at all. I also reflashed UXUMA7 to no effect. I know what I am doing, I know what I am talking about but since this isn't a phone that I personally use nor update all the time (ie I don't keep up on things for the Skyrocket) I dunno if there is a bug that causes this or what. That is why I posted, I figured if it was a glitch people here would know and could give me a clue. Its fine now though I flashed it to stock and fixed it.

the answer has been given repeatedly and stickied, if having issues on roms and cant figure out if its hw or sw, wipe everything and restore to stock via odin, if still having probs then its more than likely a hw problem, flashing stock w/odin is really not that hard todo on the skyrocket and the howto is also stickied

Long story short, that didn't necessarily work in my case so I have some other issue. Flashed back to stock and sound works but the phone starts freezing after the first time I reboot, turn off the phone, or swap in a new battery.

So tell me how screwed I am.
I had CM10.2 on my phone, then my IMEI changed to "0", and I couldn't receive calls. So I flashed my phone to 4.3.
Next right before I fixed the IMEI issue the ERI changed to "none", and put me in roaming mode.
Well I fixed the IMEI issue, but I am now stuck trying to fix the ERI, it still says roaming and does not pull an IP Address.
Is the ERI possible to be fixed now that I am stuck in 4.3?
I tried RevSkills it says, "subsys efs is locked", then I tried Samsung MEID Repair (but it locks up, I believe because I am using 4.3)
Any help appreciated! I will be heading to the Verizon store here in a few, but I'm sure they are going to say buy a new phone or something.
Well Verizon store was not helpful, they tried a bit and gave up. But reading more, I am starting to think I can revert back to older firmware because I did not OTA.
Does this sound right?
Because several times, with 4.3, I tried using ODIN to go to ICS, Well ODIN failed each time with a SW REV CHECK FAIL : Fused 1 > Binary 0...
[Quoting toeshot from another thread.]
The problem is that once you install the 4.3 update you cannot use Odin to flash a downgrade ROM even an official Samsung ROM. You will need to install a custom recovery then flash a rooted rom,

I'm going to keep trying things, because basically this phone is useless right now anyways..if I hardbrick it oh well, it was good while it lasted.
Still working on this...
So where I currently am, installed safestrap and flashed over TW Wicked Sensations. Still couldn't access the "subsys efs" because its using the ML1 modem...
Well I flashed over the modem G1, didn't work, tried G7 also doesn't work because they just take it to the "System software not authorized" screen where I am forced to reboot.
I really don't know now. unless there is a TW somewhere out there that lets me switch modems without it bringing up the "System software not authorized" I am stuck forever roaming.
Thanks Odin for letting me flash 4.3 onto my phone without warning me I could never go back. :good:

Even flashing the stock 4.3 odin file locks it... There is an odin file with the MF1 BOOT CHAIN so it won't lock it, but its too late. Plug it into the PC and run the install helper to reload the totally stock 4.3, then call verizon and tell them that since the OTA came, your phone is always in roam mode. They should replace it.

I am in a very similiar boat. I was running 10.1.3 and did the upgrade to 10.2 and my IMEI reset to all zeros. So my question is how did you fix your IMEI issue? I flashed a working backup I took before I upgraded and that did not help. Tried other roms, etc and nothing

Yea the problem is the IMEI and ERI both exist in the EFS, so that is what you would have had to backup..It can still be fixed though. Couple of links for you here:
Youtube1
Youtube2
Software Required/Procedure
So this is the part I screwed up with after finding those links, I immediately flashed to 4.3 to fix the issue, don't do that. Flash it to like ICS ( anything lower than 4.3 ) and then do the procedure part.
Also you can find your IMEI on the sticker under the battery.

After exhausting all possibilities this seems like what I will have to do, its kind of disappointing because my phone is in excellent condition, I may just sell it on ebay for parts or something.
But can you riddle me this batman, even though its says I am roaming, I'm not right? So can I just use my phone like normal?

I have watched these videos but the part that keeps hanging me up are the commands that they have you dial. I put them in and nothing happens. If I hit dial it goes nowhere.

Same thing was happening to me...when I was in CM10.2. I would try the first command to enable Diagnostic Mode / Qualcomm USB Settings. and it would do nothing. I am fairly sure you have to be on a stock ROM for this to work. Also when you dial the commands, after you hit the last number it will perform the operation, you never have to actually press dial.
I saw people posting a bunch of different numbers to try that would bring up the Qualcomm Settings. But I can't really tell you which one you need because I'm on 4.3 and its a different number. But on 4.3 its called ( Enable DM Mode ). Good Luck! :good:

I was able to flash a stock room, use *#0808# gain access to the menu, etc and got my IMEI restored. I have data but am still unable to make/receive calls. Two things I noticed that might be the issue. The IMEI SV is 00 and when I go to Access Point Names that list is blank. I did reset to default but that did not repopulate them.

My IMEI SV is also "00".. but I can still make/receive calls. It sounds like you may have set your IMEI wrong. But I'm not sure, couldn't really help you past this, because I am no expert, like some of the people on here.

What do you show in your APN settings? I noticed at one point before I had my IMEI restored I had a bunch of different choices there... now it is blank.
Only have one APN, says "LTE - Verizon Internet"

I cannot seem to get my APN to save. I have entered it manually to match my wife's S3 but it will not save it. Going to Odin back to stock I guess.
well, i am kind of sad that there isn't a fix for the eri missing. Eff you verizon and samsung for making stuff we enjoy difficult!!
