After rooting S7 I can't send text messages and my phone says "Searching For Service" - Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers

After rooting S7 I can't send text messages and my phone says "Searching For Service"
Alright so I really need some help. I rooted the Verizon S7 Edge SM-G935V successfully, but I can't send text messages. It says it isn't connected to the network when I try to send a text message. On my lock screen it shows that it is searching for service, but I have 4g LTE. I can make calls and surf the internet, but I can't send texts. When I go to settings/mobile networks I don't have as many options as I had before e.g. to choose what networks I want to use such as LGE/GSM/CDMA. What's going on here? I rerooted the phone and I still have the same issue. My lock screen will show "Searching for Service" in the top left corner.
If I make a phone call I have no problem sending text messages after the call ends.... until I restart the phone again. Then texting no longer works and I have to make another phone call to be able to send text messages. I have tried both Messenger+ and Samsung Messenger.

So I flashed back to the stock firmware and I immediately am connected to the network when the phone is restarting. So there was definitely an issue of some sort with the root. The root also caused my "Network Mode" option that was in "Mobile Networks" to disappear. I would really like to root again, but I can't do it with those issues. If anyone has any ideas I'm open to them.

Try making a phone call, it might trip it into working

It does work if I make a phone call, but once the phone is restarted it no longer works and I have to make a phone call again. I have no idea why it needs to be "jump started" like this.

Did anyone ever find a solution to this? Mine won't even text after I call.

Help ? Connecting to a voice service only network

I just flashed up the new Energy ROM. I keep getting a pop up that says "Device in registering on a voice service only network. Data services are currently unavailable." The internet seems to be working fine. I know i am in a 1X only service area but everything was fine on the stock ROM. Why am i getting this pop up and how can i fix it?
Anyone help with a solution for the "voice service only" popup ???
I am getting the same pop up on the mighty rom and i am also in the 1x area. Data is working fine also but this error is annoying.
Device is registering on a voice only network error message
Device is registering on a voice only network. This is extremely annoying. This error message will pop up in no more than 5 seconds after you click OK. This happens on flashed roms of the Touch Pro 2. I am on Verizon.

I've been looking for a possible fix to this issue as well and can't find anything. I also contacted htc support hoping there might be a way to disable the message alert but they say it's verizon's network that sends out the message? I guess this makes sense considering it doesn't happen with the Verizon stock ROM! I was hoping a registry hack might do the trick, but if it's a message from the network then there's not much you can do to stop it unless verizon was to issue a specific carrier cab to address it. . .
did you program your phone with *228 after your last flash??

Maybe you're in a roaming zone at work and you have roaming connection disabled. Your home is inside the reception zone which is why everything comes at once?
No, that's not it because I have roaming enabled. Any-other suggestions

[Q] Call Waiting Question?

Hello,
I am running cyanogenMod-HellFirePhoenix_V2.1 and it's pretty good but i am having a problem with call waiting. I specifically checked my T-Mobile plan and it says that I have call waiting feature, but when i go to call settings on my phone and try to enable it, it says "SimCard error, your network provider does not support this feature." I remember when i had stock OS a while ago call waiting used to work. Now i tested it and it just sends people straight to voice mail while the phone is busy. Can anyone offer any help with this?
Thanks,

You have to check the box before the message pops up. As far as the SIM error goes that's a known issue and hasn't been fixed AFAIK

Wondering if this is the same issue with my phone. I have the HELLFIRE Sandwich ROM loaded and I hear no notification of a second incoming calls either.
Theres a good chance that this feature was never used by the Dev and so was removed. I know I dont use it. If your not important enough for me to pick it up, you can go to voicemail where I wont call you back. If its someone important, then pick up the phone. I'm running Genesis and I get the ring while im on the phone.

[Q] T-mobile One S won't receive calls

Hey everyone, I just got my One S yesterday and found out last night that the incoming phone calls aren't coming through. I can receive and send text message and make outgoing calls. Any idea if this is a problem with the phone or maybe a t-mobile outage?

Why don't you call the store you got it from or call C.S you just got it so anything wrong with it could be handled with them. Have you tested it yourself calling from another phone?

I just realized that wifi calling works. I also just called t-Mobile and after 30 minutes of diagnostics they told me that there is a network outage for new activations. Since it took them so long to figure out there is a network outage, I think they are full of it.
Are you still having this issue?
My wife just emailed me saying she was trying to call me but the call wasn't going through.
I was immediately getting calls when I changed my SIM yesterday...

When I first turned the phone on and called to activate my new SIM, tmobile made a test phone call to my new phone and everything worked fine. But now that I think about it, I think wi-fi calling was active at the time. I haven't received any calls today so not sure if the issue is still there.
This happened to me when switching telco, I got a SMS from new operator with a date but no time when my number would be ported. On that day I could make calls and send SMS but not get any calls. Turns out my number had been ported to new telco without me realizing this (I was still using my old SIM since it seemed to work to me.) After changing to new SIM everything was fine. All of this was on a desire though so might not apply to you ofc

Sounds like you have a bad phone, call CS or take it back and demand a replacement.

Calls not coming through - possible solution
I had this problem when I first got it.
First under settings->call->Use Internet calling - make sure you select Only for Internet calls.
Now go to wifi and make sure you are connected to a Wi-Fi network - then click the More menu listed under Mobil Network (three dots). If you have wifi calling enabled, go to Wi-Fi Calling Settings->Connection Preferences and select Cellular Preferred - otherwise you won't be able to make calls when not near a Wi-Fi.
Hope this helps - it took me forever to track it down!

The problem is i can make calls, just can't receive them. I don't think it's the phone as when people call me it goes to an automated message saying i'm not on the network. Even my voicemail doesn't work.

Can't receive calls on honor 6 x

Hey does anybody else have problems receiving calls from honor 6x? I can call and and text but can't receive calls. The caller hears the phone ring and then go to Voice mail but my phone doesn't even ring.
Are you using Jio, VoLTE or something like that to make calls?

Yes I already tried restarting as well as blocking all call forwarding and still no luck I'm wondering if it might be a problem with the update I presently have EMUI 5. 0.1

I'm having the same problem - just this past week. I'm missing very important phone calls as well and I can't figure out why. My setting show that the ringtone volume is all the way up. It's not on silent. Have you gotten yours fixed?
I'm having the exact same problem. It's random so you wouldn't know that you're missing a call until much later when you restart the phone. I just missed an interview call yesterday and had to email the interviewer to try again after restarting my phone ... this is disastrous.
I'm also having the same problem how do I get it fixed
Not sure if I have the same problem. I can't receive calls and text after the phone idle for approx 2hrs. Launching dialer doesn't help. I factory reset it twice and no help. I discover placing a call will make it, or reboot. Still looking into it. Testing my SIM on another phone in the mean time.

I've exactly the same problem that you discribe, but for me it's after 5 minutes idle... I've tested my SIM in another phone (iphone 5c) and the problem persist so it's mayby a problem with the Mobile network operator or the SIM card.
Also experiencing the same issue as well. Thought it was because I was connected to wi-fi at home and calls go straight to voicemail from what callers are telling me.
same here - no incomming calls seemingly at random
Looks like I'm a bit late to the party but I'm still trying to figure this out too. It seems to happen at my house, not sure if it happens other places or not. I also have noticed when i try to make an outgoing call my 4g disappears. Perhaps its not making or receiving calls for whatever reason through the 4g tower / band? I'm just now testing with 4g off but remaining on my home wifi. Annoying for sure. I've been happy with the 6x and hope its not a device specific problem.
I just found this thread after being fed up with this phone. My guess with why this happen is because the phone sleeps. I noticed that whenever Im not using the phone, like when I sleep or when Im working on the computer, it's when I don't receive calls or get delayed messages. It's not just SMS as well, it's other messaging apps too.. My current fix right now, is to send myself a text message, right after I wake up or after I havent touched the phone in a while, and then the messages starts to roll in. If any one of you guys find a better solution, please do let me know, cause this is very frustrating.
I'm having the same problem as so many others with my Honor 6 randomly not ringing. I've tried restarting, testing SIM card, replacing SIM card, "waking it up" periodically. Nothing works. I have both personal and a Google Voice business lines coming through my phone. I'll hear it ring on my computer, but not my phone for about 50% of the incoming business calls. Personal calls I just miss.
Has anyone had any luck with a solution, other than dumping it and buying a new phone? I keep thinking it must be some setting that's set wrong.
