[Epic 4G General] hayzooos:
These seem to be contradicting each other. It sounds like your issue is your not able to get his texts, right? If that's the case are you using any third part text apps, like GoSMS or Handcent? Is he? What kind of phone is he using? When did you first flash CM7 RC0? I think that only became available last night, so it sounds like the issue started before you flashed over to RC0.
[Epic 4G General] metalblaster:
yeah, I'm sorry I meant to say that even when I got into my Google Voice I cant see the messages he has sent.

I used to use Handcent sms and i just flashed the RC today AFTER the issue happened 2 days ago. I figured I might as well wipe the phone so i did and then updated to cm7 RC-0. Currently, I'm not using any 3rd party apps for messaging but before I used Hand-cent sms. In fact my phone is completely devoid of any Apps atm because i just wiped data, cache and Dalvik.

He is currently using a Droid X On Cm7 and I think he uses handcent as well. So he is on verizon.

Basically the event went down like this. The night before he and i had a talk via text, i received all the messages from his phone from that day then when i woke up the next morning he had texted me but I didn't get it. Later he and i chatted online and he asked if i had received the message earlier and I said no and asked him to resend it. He did and i still didnt see anything, so i sent a test message to him which he was able to get and then he sent a message back to me etc. We sent messages back and forth for about an hour. I tried to send a message via Google Voice on the computer and he received it but my log on Google voice did not update for even the message i had sent. I just deactivated my google voice account thinking i might be somethnig to do with that, but i still am not receiving his texts. I also called sprint and they did basically everything they could think of and still no messages.
[Epic 4G General] DroidApprentice:
Just a thought but do you have any numbers blocked on sprint dot com (they allow certain text senders and numbers to be blocked from msging or calling on you account settings)? Reason I ask is that I don't fully trust sprint's system for this. When I blocked one number for instance from calling it completely disabled my roaming calls from going through and I had to reverse it. Even though I've successfully used it to block texts I wonder if it could cause issues for someone else.
[Epic 4G General] phatryan69:
Just puttin in my 2 cents but I had this happen to me a while back and it was foor my boss... I could send em to him and everything u say u can do but it just had to pan itself out. Hell sprint even gave me a new phone just to try and it never did... then one day it just started workin again and hasn't messed up since... it rly has nothing to do with thr roms or anything... just sprints horrible service and they don't even kno wat causes it. So hopefully it will pan out

My brother is having the same problem between his & his wife's phones and they're stock. It's a Sprint problem - they told him a car knocked down a tower in their neighborhood.

The phone still boots but I want to flash roms. On the red screen it says "PD29130 SS-BC (4K)" Is there any fix, ANY???? I've heard of Goldcard but I think it'd be easier to fix the bootloader. I think I read somewhere something about JTag?

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ureyesonly:
I have a Samsung Galaxy S II with lost IMEI & unknown baseband, ( the source of such a problem usually is the corruptness of the efs folder or missing ), My question is if the efs folder is missing would it be possible to use another backup from another backup of the efs folder from different S2 and edit in the details needed?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
You can restore from your backed up EFS folder .

Or search XDA >>> EFS will find a number of posts and some fixes .

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cosmic Blue:
no, you can not use a efs from another phone as the imei is unique to each phone. you would end up bricking it.

You need to send it in for reflashing with specialized tools which will rebuilds your efs folder.

Cant understand why people do not make a backup of the EFS. If they all took the time to read the stickies, they would know how important this is. Learn to walk before you start to run.

restore with a backup folder!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shadowofdarkness:
You may not of personally made a backup but a lot of roms and kernels do it for you automatically, so you may have one or more backups and not even know it.

Check if you have one in /data/.siyah if you have used said kernel.

Check your sdcard for any made by roms they usually make a folder named something like efs_backup

Last I looked in addition to the backup I made 5 minutes after buying the phone I have 20+ made from each rom upgrade.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] coolshades:
Hi, I'm new to rooting etc. Is it too late to backup an efs folder after I rooted the phone but have done nothing else? :confused:

Cool
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bored_stupid:
As long as your EMS folder is intact and IMEI is correct, its not too late. There are a number of apps and programs to backup your imei. Ktool is one of the best and simplest to use. Also try EFS pro.

[Motorola Droid Bionic] voxigenboy:
If you have a Skype # you could only listen to voicemails from the Skype app on your PC. I had complained before to Skype and they just stated that they had not incorporated that feature into mobile phones yet(It never worked on my Thunderbolt or my Rezound).

Now that I have been on this Nexus, it's been alerting me of new voicemails and actually allowing me to listen to them to. I want to know, is this a Nexus(ICS) exclusive feature or just a Skype update?.. If it is an update, can anyone confirm that you now can listen to Skype voicemails on your Bionic?

The other is 'bluetooth'. Again, on both my Thunderbolt & Rezound, you could only do bluetooth calls via the standard phone dialer. If you tried with Skype, it would ignore the bluetooth connection and just go through the normal phone speaker. I just tried on the Nexus and Skype bluetooth calls are working fine. Again, can you now do Skype bluetooth calling on your Bionic?

These are the 2 things that have me on pause at the moment before deciding to trade for a Bionic. (yes Skype is a big deal for me)

Could be either.. but i would do the fallowing .. if it does not work Take it back

go to settings FROM THE APP Drawer.. /

go to the privacy tab... At the bottom click factory Data reset..

because its BRAND NEW it should work without any effort on your part.. its a expensive device . take it back..

Good Luck

What do you guys think? I don't ever expect much from HTC, Samsung is awesome, but their bodies feel like Fisher Price might be the manufacturer. It's tough for me to use anything but Nokia anymore.
[Windows Phone 8 General] vnvman:
Idk, it's hard to think about anything, basically it's all about a blurry pic and pretty common specs (nowadays). As far as i'm concerned i really hope that Htc brings out something well built as the Titan but smaller, i don't really care about the kind of network it uses, here in Italy we only have slow ass 3G and i can't see anything better coming in the next 2 years or so...what i really want right now is a 4"er, rock solid, compact and well built WP7 phone with up to date (for the specific platform) specs. I can't say that my next phone will be a Samsung, unless they really start using some really premium material: the whole "it's plastic but it's high grade!" thing turned out to be bull**** (at least for me) because after a few months having the GS2 and carrying it inside a case (pulling it out only to replace the battery or the sim card) the plastic parts are all but shiny right now, end even the glossy metal bumper isn't that glossy anymore. Right now the Lumia 800 would be the most appealing phone to me, but i won't upgrade till next summer so i'm a afraid that its successor will be some oversized piece of crap. After a while using my GS2 having such a huge screen became a little annoying and uncomfortable, and i hate the fact that apparently OEMs are pushing for even bigger stuff at the present day. Maybe when it will be time for me to upgrade i'll be forced to grab an iPhone5 (sure it won't be bigger than 4" because they need to give it some "one size fits all" attitude) because all the other high end phones will be too big due to this stupid trend. That would suck really bad :rolleyes:

HTC has the best build quality

Nokia

V

Motorola

Samsung

V

Dell

LG and HTC (though LG has been trying more as of late, HTC just keeps trying to throw bigger processors and screens at poor build quality.​

I will also a great fan of Nokia. No doubt Samsung has great smart phones specially with their look but not just looks that matter. HTC has to deliver much more to compete Nokia. Nokia has all the important features as compare to others and mainly it is more reliable than any other smart phone in the Industry
[Windows Phone 8 General] KayxGee1:
You're putting Samsung above LG and HTC in terms of build quality? That's insane. All Samsung phones are plasticky and brittle. Build quality is how durable the phone is as a whole, not the individual quality of the parts. That's a different story.

I have very strange problem with my euro 3g xoom. When I bought it it recognized my sim card and network (T-Mobile Hungary). Now I flashed Tiamat 2.2.2 Moray. Of course I had a lot of problems with that one so I went for Hammerhead and flashed 3.2.2 stock rooted too. In every case I did a complete wipe / factory reset and a dalvik cache wipe too.

Now the actual nature of the problem is that I LOST PARTS OF MY 3G SETTINGS. This means I cannot define APN any more nor can I select service provider. Menus are missing. 3g device activation fails with infinite attempt to activate device.

As it appears to me Xoom seems not to recognize my 3g modem at all..

Any suggestion / comment is welcome. Right now I am on 3.2.2 stock rooted with of rogue ran a kernel. Oc 1.5 ghz rock solid, excellent performance no FCs at all, ONLY 3g is not working at all.
