multiple question thread plz assist - Sprint Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Im running moar with a stock kernel. Anyone with xp on the roms know if this is the best one.
im have lg smart tv finally got my screen mirroring to work by flashing the stock kernel, but it stutters or skips every 5 Seconds. Barely usable. Anything im missing and can do to fix this? Its miracast thats what it says when im connecting.
I have googled multiple ways and wordings and got no wherr. Any help much appreciated.
Also I have changed mods kernels everything even went back to stock and my phone will not recieve incoming calls. I can text call out do everything but my phone goes to my voicemail. I pay 150 a month. They said go to sprint store but since im rooted and modded they wont touch my phone.

When all else fails, Odin back to stock and see if the problem is fixed, then reroot. If the problem is still there you can take it to the store.

[Q] Anyone else having this problem?

I recently flashed the stock rom that is rooted with hsupa and sideloading enabled onto my Inspire, and over the last 2 days I've noticed that sometimes when I try to make a call, my phone just hangs up. It's weird, because text and data works perfectly fine, it's only when I make phone calls. Anyone else notice this problem with a rooted rom, stock or not?

Yep, happens to me all the time. Internet doesn't always work either. I "fixed" the problem by setting it to GSM only mode. Now I only have EDGE internet.

Are you on the same rooted stock rom, or something different? I don't seem to remember having this problem when I was just on pure stock AT&T with no root. Somewhat annoying, as I'll have to place a call 3 or 4 times to get it to go through, but what's really annoying is that it is so sporadic I can't gauge when it'll happen!

I've noticed this at multiple times, but haven't been able to narrow down what's causing it. I was running Revolution 1.15, and I think it started when I applied the .16 performance patch. It got so bad last night I couldn't make/receive calls for hours. I did a full wipe an reinstalled 1.15 and all has been well the last 24 hours. I just flashed the 2.1 patch but we'll see what happens. Note: Not only can you not make calls when this is happening you won't be able to receive calls either. It does appear to most often happen when bouncing between networks (HSDPA, UMTS, Edge, etc)

Man, I'm glad I'm not the only one having this problem. I thought my phone was defective at first, and now I don't feel so crazy anymore. My sister was furious with me, I had to pick her and her boyfriend up from DIA yesterday to take her to Copper Mountain to snowboard with my girlfriend and myself, and she called me 4 times and I didn't receive a single one. I wonder if it has anything to do with HSUPA being enabled on the phones, but at this point I'm just ready to give up root and go back to stock. I don't make tons of calls, but I'd like to be able to when I need to, and for my phone to not hang up on me in the middle of one. I have noticed though it's particularly bad for me when I'm on bluetooth.
I was also having those problems
I am using Revolution 4G 2.1. I'm in the process of trying to get the problem figured out. Stock rooted rom had problems for me because you couldn't set it to GSM only, and that's the only way I've found to make the phone reliably work as a phone.
If anyone can figure it out, I'd love to know what causes it. I've been poking around myself, but haven't come up with anything worthwhile. I suppose I'll flash a different rom and try that.

Anyone found any clue as to why this happens? I've searched the dev forums but nobody seems to mention this, which makes me wonder if most people have this problem.

I have never had this problem. Running a rooted stocker.

It happened to me again last night. Still had data but lost the ability to make/receive calls. I switched network to GSM only, the data switched to EDGE, and i was able to make/recieve calls. Turned back to GSM/WCDMA, no calls. Rebooted, no calls. Turned back to GSM only, calling functionality returned. I did another full wipe, installed AR 2.1, sound fix, apache 1.6 kernel, and calling is restored when connected to HSDPA/WCDMA. Has been working fine for the last 12 hours. I'll keep you updated. I don't know why it's doing this, and it doesn't make sense as to why a wipe would fix it. The first time this happened I was runing the stock radio. Last night when it happened i was running the recommended radio in the AR thread (M2). I've now switched back to stock this time...let's see what happens
Edit: I am also glad to know I'm not the only one having these issues...maybe someone a LOT smarter than I am can figure it out. It's annoying to have to have a slow data connection to have a reliable voice connection. The last Android I had (LG GW620 Eve), also did this from time to time, but I just blamed it on the fact that it was a POS. My voicemail actually went like this "This is Greg. I probably have no idea you called me just now, so please leave a message and I'll get back to you"
Edit: mike1986 (android revolution developer) just chimed in in his thread and stated these issues should be fixed in version 3.0 set to be released soon. Is anyone else that's having these problems NOT running Revolution?

I had this problem when I first rooted (running Inspire 4G Stock Rom w/Root, HSUPA, and Sideloading from the development section) I installed Android Revolution 2.1 and it went away.
I know from my captivate days that sometimes a ROM just hiccups and a fresh flash can fix the issues. I don't know if this is the same with HTC, but it's all android so It's plausible.

[Q] Error number 16?

Hi, I started getting a message when I try to place calls this morning, it says "Due to error number 16, the call cannot be completed. Please stay on the line to be transferred to customer service" It then says "Switch 702, please call the number provided by your service provider", and then hangs up.
I called Sprint, the rep there said that they can't really do anything about error 16, there's a special number they transfer those to. Then he told me that the phone should transfer me automatically after playing the error message, so he isn't sure what's going on. So now I'm waiting to hear back from them...
In the mean time, I can't make or receive calls, but I do have data. My shift is rooted, and running Cyanogenmod 7.1.
Anyone heard of this?
I had this same thing. It was a combination of a lot of things that finally fixed the issue. Basically calling 611 and telling them the problem. Forcing the most current prl into the phone and then finally getting the right tech person on the line after 3 days of calling. Its not fixed until you have 2 consecutive days of the phone working right.
Once they get something working on their end you can finally dial the number you are told to enter and it will finally work.

I can't even dial 611 from the phone, I get the same message. Or did you mean dial it from another phone? My wife also has an Evo Shift (Unrooted) that isn't experiencing this problem. I'll try from there.
Any other suggestions would be greatly appreciated....
Thanks
They had me update my PRL, profile and then dial ##087523# to change my MSID. That finally got it working.
I had the same error, and I had it while running CM7.1 The sprint techs told me it has something to do with new security features they are implementing on their end. If you wait long enough after the error message is played, it will connect you automatically, it just takes a minute or two. They ask you all your account information like they would when you call customer service for anything else, then a few more questions like what phone model you have and so on.
I flashed x99's rooted sense gb rom and updated the profile and prl and everything was working fine. Later I nandroided back to CM7 and it immediately put me back on the error. I flashed back to the sense rom, updated again and was still errored so I had to call again and once it got resolved, I just left it with the Sense rom.
I also had this problem since Monday, its annoying because you have no idea your phone is not working, so you have to actually try to send a text message or make a phone call...
When i would send a text message, it would say couldn't send message.
I been calling sprint each time, so far today its been working but I ended up switching it back to stock rom.
Had this issue for the past 48 hours or so. Had to call customer service to resolve it. No PRLs or anything needed to be updated, just had to verify my account info. Apparently the problem has something to do with phones not running official Sprint ROMs.
I ended up telling the CSR that I was running CM7 rooted, and he asked why I didn't just run the official Gingerbread 2.3 for the Shift. I almost mentioned that I was tethering, but caught myself just in time
Had the same issue on my girlfriend's shift (CM 7.0.3.1).. had them fix it automatically then decided to update radios and PRL from a sense rom and moved to CM7 nightly.. problem's back. Fixed it automatically again this morning.. hope it was just the radio changes that did it the second time.. if this happens everytime you flash a new ROM it's gonna be ridiculous.
I had to flash back from MikShift to CM7 today and the problem came back. Maybe this is some new measure to discourage custom roms.
I called again and had the tech run a network refresh on my phone. That fixed it, for about 6 hours.
I finally went back to the stock ROM since I use this phone for my business, and can't have it not working like it was. A crappy ROM is better than no phone
If Sprint is intentionally disabling phones running unofficial ROMs, they suck. Especially since their official ROM is buggy and full of crap I don't need or want.
Having same issue. Only on the Shift not on my Evo or Hero that all are rooted ROMs. I get no help from Sprint and my dialer will not do anything when I input those commands they want us to use.
the problem will be fixed once you update your prl and the other option that is there..
then you have to at least load a few pages on your browser.. turn on 4g and get a gps lock...
then you shouldnt have problems on the next roms.
i was in the middle of playing a game and a box appered something about update, couldent read it all next one said failer of some sort couldent read all that. next thing i know i was gettin unsent text errors then i tried callin someone and got the error 16 message. talked to a rep she said she was resetting my phone. asked me to reboot few times asked me to pull battery, which i couldent since i have a internal one. she said everything looks fine on my end. call back tomorrow if it protists or go to a store. few mins later my screen comes on with message saying updating prl then another message saying updated prl. tried texting it worked fine tried calling it worked fine. was stressin for a bit.

Glad you got it sorted out . Sometimes Updating PRL / Profile will correct ERROR 16, sometimes it will not. In that case you have to do as you did call Sprint. They will Reset your Data. One thing though, you mentioned you have an Internal Battery. As in Non-Removable . You do realize this is the EVO Shift Forums. Not the EVO 4G LTE Forums .

Trouble making and ending calls

Hey everyone,
I have had the infuse roughly since it was released. Never really had any call isuues or anything. Lately however, about 90% of my calls end up dropping. Also, when i try to end a call, the phone kind of freezes and shows that the call has not ended, but it should have. The phone symbol shows up at the top or the status bar stays green... I have no idea what this could be attributed to. I have used different roms and never had an issue. My most recent rom is the Max Q Rom and everyhing was working fine then after a few weeks this calling and ending calls situation started. Tried reflashing the Rom, but problem is still present, dont really think it is Rom related.
Anyone have any input? I cannot seem to figure it out and my phone as a phone has become virtually unusable...
Thanks for any and all help!

Have never heard of that.... still have you tried a data and cache wipe in cmw? then install a rom on a fresh device? I know you will have to back up all your stuff but may be the answer.
Also try another modem may help. Im not sure since ive never experienced that but give it a try.

I can relate. I had the same exact issue a few days ago. I just flashed and didn't look back.. though I probably will eventually. Try Mitra, very good. I loved it. Experimenting with Caty's rom now. Good luck. Wipe/factory reset, wipe dalvik and fix permissions. Then flash. Let it sit for 10-15 before you start using it. Make sure it settles and gets used to, "it's native infuse guts," as EXPERIMENT put it.

[Q] cannot make or receive calls after flashing a new rom

Hi all,
I'm running cm10 currently, have been using it for a long time. I have the 2.40 telestra radio installed, never had an issue in the past with it.
After flashing the new 0127 weekly from cm10 (4.1.2), I cannot make or receive any phone calls. SMS works fine, data works fine. I have recovered to an old backup that was working fine, still cant call/receive calls. The call begins, 2 seconds of nothing then says call ended. I have flashed a brand new ROM, recovered to 3 different ROMs (MIUI,venom,AOKP) all the exact same issue, I did a clean install, Ive tried different radio's 2.09/2.40 (only ones that seem to work well data wise for me), I've done everything except flash the stock ruu (which I'm having trouble finding documentation on, I believe the easiest way is with the one click tool, scared to flash the wrong ruu though )
My screen has a crack in it, not sure if its relevant as the issue began after I flashed the new nightly, I don't understand how this could be physical.
All in all, I'm stuck can't use the calling feature at all. The mic still works, tested with a recording app. I'm just looking for a suggestion as a next step.
The phone is a rogers HTC one x, please let me know any suggestions or if anyone has encountered this before.
Thanks in advance guys,
Josh

Got it fixed, I ended up speaking with tech support from my carrier, they "refreshed my number" on the network, solved the issue. I ended up going through the entire RUU rewrite process for no reason. Just an FYI for other people out there, start with tech support first, ended up being an issue with the network, not my software.

Major problem need an expert

I am using a galaxy note i717. I have issues with it. I have rooted this phone using odin. I have tried everything I know to make it work correctly. The problems are just horrible. The worst one is the phone call thing. Someone calls me, my phone starts ringing and completely locks up, I can't even see who it was that called. My phone will ring forever till I turn it off, completely locked up only option is power cycle. Worst part is it does not even show it as a missed call so I have no clue who called. Another thing is the phone needs to be reset at least a few times a day, as it is just laggy and slow I waited 10 seconds today for my call log to show up after I pressed the button. There are a few others but those are extremely anoying. My phone works fine till I load certain apps then it becomes bogged down. Defender of texel and Group Me are 2 apps that cause this problem. I have tried many things to fix it. I have tried many jelly bean custom roms. All of them have the same problem. I also did the samsung upgrade trick. The one where you unroot and put the phone to stock ics then have samsung upgrade it to jb then root it to a jb custom rom. I have 2 ideas of how to fix it. I can get ics custom roms to work flawlessly, I got a goldie rom already downloaded and ready to install. The other idea might come from an expert. I think it is some setting that is default turned on that needs turned off. I really don't know, I don't want to revert back to ics I like new technology and getting the most out of my devices. I am using black jelly right now, it is a good rom, it was just the last one I tried. The phone has no wings but was about to fly across the room so I gave up before I broke it. I need an expert that knows the tricks to make this phone work correctly. Any help would be appreciated.
