[HTC U12+ Guides, News, & Discussion] LibertyMonger:
I experienced it yesterday and it was the same issue with the U11. Verizon's VoLTE is part of their advanced calling settings. If you are transferring your SIM from a non Verizon device that does not have Verizon's advanced calling settings then you may fry the SIM and have to get a new one. And you have to register the IMEI for the U12+ to activate it.

If you already have a Verizon device with a Verizon SIM with advanced calling already activated, I would call Verizon and have the U12+ IMEI registered before swapping the SIM.

---------- Post added at 07:45 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:03 PM ----------

I'm on call till Monday so I need my phone to work so I can't mess with it now but I will try swapping back and forth from my U11 on Monday to see if it works without issues. I had no problem swapping between my U11 and HTC 10 after I had my U11 activated properly.

all good still?
[HTC U12+ Guides, News, & Discussion] LibertyMonger:
All great buddy. I thought I was having upload troubles but I wasn't thinking, the pics were just too big.

All bands working as they should and I compared speeds with my mom's Verizon HTC 10 and they were the same.

I just wonder, after I root it, run Network signal guru anyway just to see if it helps with anything more. Only thinking we're missing is WiFi calling, which I can do that on Google Hangouts anyway. And CDMA but that never caused me any issues on my U11. After the issues were fixed I never, ever lost signal anywhere and I travel 100+ miles a day all over the tristate.

Love this phone and I have absolutely none of the issues people speak about.
[HTC U12+ Guides, News, & Discussion] -4ndr01d-:
what do you mean by "missing CDMA"
[HTC U12+ Guides, News, & Discussion] QD2DC:
The u12+ does not have a CDMA radio. So if you rely on 3g, I'd pass on this phone.
[HTC U12+ Guides, News, & Discussion] LibertyMonger:
Verizon is supposed to be phasing CDMA out by 2019-2020. Their 4g is so extensive that most people never need CDMA. So by 2020, supposedly there won't even be 3g or CDMA.

And about the buttons, even if there was an issue, I hardly even use them anyway since facial recognition works so good.
[HTC U12+ Guides, News, & Discussion] LibertyMonger:
If you rely on 3g you're better off saving money and getting a flip phone. :laugh:
[HTC U12+ Guides, News, & Discussion] QD2DC:
No some remote areas still heavily rely on 3g since it's fequency penetrates further due to its lower hertz. Every other verizon supported phone released this year still include CDMA for this reason, such as the pixel 2, s8 or s9, LGs, and even unlocked phones like the essential. Pretty sure the pixel 3 will to. Better to cover everyone then just those more fortunate. Then again at $800 this phone obviously isn't for everyone.
[HTC U12+ Guides, News, & Discussion] Ndaoud360:
Verizon calling and texting not working for me. Then found out I need to activate advanced calling on old phone which mine is HTC 10, I did and transferred back and still not working.
[HTC U12+ Guides, News, & Discussion] LibertyMonger:
Did you use the same SIM? You need to do this with a new SIM card.

---------- Post added at 12:54 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:50 AM ----------

Yeah, no we're not gonna get into this again. As much as I travel I'm quite sure CDMA is not needed probably at least 90%. I wouldn't want to pay for data service if I relied on CDMA. Absolutely never a call drop or random loss of signal while on the HTC U11 for over a year. Only issue with signal was in the beginning and that was from reboots, never randomly while booted. Ohio, Indiana and Kentucky area.

---------- Post added at 12:58 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:54 AM ----------

I still get great service and always better than my co-workers who are on other carriers. Whenever we are in low signal areas, I'm the only one who ever gets a 4g signal.

All I can say we got 30 days to try it. Allow people to try it for themselves.
[HTC U12+ Guides, News, & Discussion] QD2DC:
And you already have HD voice/advanced calling added to your line?

Do you have access to another Verizon phone, like an iPhone or Samsung also on Verizon? I found it easier to activate it on those. Just pop the sim in, turn on, toggle data and voice off and on on the iPhone if it's already on, test calls and data, then put back into u12. The Samsung will auto enable advanced calling in the phone if it detects your sim is provisioned for it.

I managed to make my u12 loose all signal like the u11 would, albeit by trying deliberately, but was able to fix it with my pixel 2 lol.

I hope this helps
[HTC U12+ Guides, News, & Discussion] LibertyMonger:
The best way to activate it is to have your SIM card in your Verizon HTC 10, then call Verizon and register your IMEI for your HTC U12+ and get it activated, then swap your SIM from the Verizon HTC 10 to your HTC U12+.

BUT... if you had your SIM in a non Verizon device, like the HTC U11 and just straight transferred it to your HTC U12+ you probably fried your SIM and need to get a new one.

You have to have your SIM in a Verizon device that has advanced calling in the settings and you have to have advanced calling activated before you can transfer your SIM. And you have to register your IMEI with Verizon.
[HTC U12+ Guides, News, & Discussion] Ndaoud360:
I read your post about using a new sim, didn't realize I needed to, I'll try that.
[HTC U12+ Guides, News, & Discussion] LibertyMonger:
Yes good. Cause if you try to put your SIM into your U12+ without activating it properly first you will fry the SIM and you won't be able to make calls.
[HTC U12+ Guides, News, & Discussion] JWhetstone02:
Ok, just to clarify... My U12+ comes next week. I am currently using an HTC10 unlocked on Verizon. I have all the features activated currently. Advanced calling features, wifi calling etc... So do all I need to do is power off, take him out and put in u12+ and power on and all will be well? Texting calling etc?

Or will I still have to contact Verizon to get this working after the fact?
[HTC U12+ Guides, News, & Discussion] LibertyMonger:
Do you have Verizon software or unlocked? You need to have the Verizon advanced calling settings in the settings menu. I think. To be able to just swap the SIM you need to come from a Verizon device.
[HTC U12+ Guides, News, & Discussion] JWhetstone02:
I bought the unlocked version. I unlocked/s-off and changed my CID and MID to match that of Verizon and flashed the VZW rom.. (This was the process to get a non branded HTC 10 working on VZW) all advanced calling features activtaed fine and worked. Flashed another ROM that had VZW support, everything still works as should. All advacned calling features are active and working as is wifi calling. This is the current state of my HTC10.

Hoping I can just take the Sim out, put it in the new device and cikla. Won't have to deal with Verizon any

I know the whole 1x and 3g delimma and will live with it.
[HTC U12+ Guides, News, & Discussion] LibertyMonger:
If the U12+ is the same as the U11 as far as activating, then you should be fine with just swapping your SIM. From my experience, it is when we try to swap a SIM from a non Verizon device to the U11 or U12+ it Fry's the SIM. Reason being is the U12+ does not have the Verizon advanced calling in the settings.
[HTC U12+ Guides, News, & Discussion] JWhetstone02:
Well, it did not go as smoothly as I thought it would. Turns out I needed to have a 'newer' SIM card. Taking the SIM straight out of my HTC10 and putting it in the U12+ prompted a toast message saying 'this SIM card is not authorized on this network'. Chatted with tier 1 and 2 and they eventually got it half way to where only texts could come through...no texts/mms go out , no data, and no calls go out. Then asked me the number on the SIM card and how long I had it (same one from HTC One m8 launch) and told me I needed one of the newer nano SIM cards. So I went to a VZW store, activated one of the newer SIM cards in my HTC 10 and then put it in the U12+ and it activated fine.

Figured I'd share my little experience.

On the plus side, where the HTC10 would bounce between 1x and 3g mostly with a few times seeing 4g at home...the U12+ is staying on 4g. This was a chance I took and it seems to have been worth it
[HTC U12+ Guides, News, & Discussion] LibertyMonger:
Ahh that sucks but at least you did it right after the new SIM. Most people do not understand why the SIM needs activated in a Verizon device. Even Verizon reps don't understand it and look at you funny when you tell them you must activate it in the HTC 10 first then swap it. If you don't, you will fry a perfectly good SIM card. The store reps think they are smarter than you and get irritated when you try to explain it to them. The ones I dealt with are only used to activating Verizon devices.
[HTC U12+ Guides, News, & Discussion] LibertyMonger:
Not too bad...
[HTC U12+ Guides, News, & Discussion] darien217:
Move to HTC U12+

I have my phone line activated now on a Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge which has the Advance Calling showing as active in the settings, I had the Verizon rep give me a brand new SIM card to activate this phone on my account. The HTC U12+ will arrive in 2 days, all I have to do is register the IMEI of the phone with Verizon then swap the sim card over for a smooth activation?
[HTC U12+ Guides, News, & Discussion] LibertyMonger:
Pretty sure but I would call Verizon and register the IMEI on their bring your own device program first just to be safe. I could be wrong, it's been a while since I had HTC U11 issues on Verizon. But for me, I just swapped my SIM from an HTC 10 with advanced calling activated. The issues we were having in the beginning with losing signal have been fixed. Good luck buddy.
[HTC U12+ Guides, News, & Discussion] darien217:
I definitely was not going to try taking the SIM from my HTC One M8 (wheels falling off after 4 years), that's why I got a ringer/middle-man in the Galaxy S7 for these past 8 days with a new SIM. There's a Verizon store on the next block over - I'll ask them to punch in the IMEI for me, appreciate the response and the helpful insight on getting the U12 activated on Verizon in this thread. Thank you, I'll be testing hopefully by this Saturday.
[HTC U12+ Guides, News, & Discussion] LibertyMonger:
Whatever you do, you cannot just pop a SIM or a new SIM straight into your U12+ or U11. It has to be activated in another device first and it must be a Verizon device with advanced calling already activated.
[HTC U12+ Guides, News, & Discussion] darien217:
I moved over a band new SIM activated for the first time in a Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge with the VolTE/Advance Calling enabled over to my HTC U12+. I was able to make and receive calls, no issues there, data: no issues, seeing bands 2 and 4 using LTE discovery. I was able to send text messages to others, I was not able to receive any of them. I called Verizon and asked them to block and then unblock text messages aka a Reset on my text messages on my account which instantly resolved the issue and all my text messages for the last 23 hours flooded into my phone, fully up and running now.
[HTC U12+ Guides, News, & Discussion] tdwpkidd:
Has that fixed the MMS issue? I noticed that I'm unable to receive MMS even with stock HTC messages app.
[HTC U12+ Guides, News, & Discussion] LibertyMonger:
Anybody been seeing band 66?
[HTC U12+ Guides, News, & Discussion] darien217:
I only send regular SMS texts via the native messaging app as It cost me extra to send an MMS with my plan, sorry can't help you there.

---------- Post added at 08:53 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:50 PM ----------

I've gotten 2 and 4 at home and 13 I've seen while on my commute, haven't seen 66 - I live in NYC. I can do a few spot checks around this week on my way to work and back, I'll let you know.
[HTC U12+ Guides, News, & Discussion] darien217:
Nope, only see 2, 4, 13 in NYC. I haven't traveled outside the city since getting my phone, possible not deployed or available in my city.

A year ago I migrated a sim card from my Verizon HTC 10 to an unlocked U 11. Would I be able to put the same sim card into the u12+? Also I never registered my U11 with Verizon, what are the advantages of registering the u12+?
[HTC U12+ Guides, News, & Discussion] dmw_4814:
How is activating/using an HTC U12+ on Verizon any different than a US unlocked LG V20 or V30? I had an LG V20, which I originally used on AT&T. My wife & I switched to Verizon. The Verizon store popped a SIM card in my V20, and the phone worked without any issues. Later, I got a V30, and I simply switched the SIM card from the V20 to the V30, and that phone also worked without issues, without me having to do anything else. The only problem I had was when I changed my phone number (because I moved from Phoenix, AZ to Cleveland, OH, where I was originally from); then I stopped getting text messages. After wasting two days with Verizon tech support, I finally went back to the Verizon store, and told them I wanted a new SIM card. As soon as they put the new SIM card in the V30, about 16 texts from the previous two days immediately showed up on my phone, LOL!

By the way, my V30 was actually a Verizon model purchased from a Verizon store but in order to unlock the bootloader & root it, I had to use a method of flashing the US unlocked model's firmware on it, known as the "Frankenstein" method, essentially turning it into the carrier-unlocked V30. But, that shouldn't have anything to do with why my SIM card worked, without ever having to contact Verizon, since it also worked in my V20

Anyway, I'm very interested in buying & using the HTC U12+ on Verizon, so I'm wondering if I'll need to do things differently with that phone, than I did with my LG phones.

Thanks!
[HTC U12+ Guides, News, & Discussion] LibertyMonger:
If you transfer your SIM card from an already activated Verizon device with advanced calling already activated, it should be fine if I remember correctly. I haven't had this issue on the U12+ as bad as we did in the beginning of the U11.

I think if you get a new SIM before activating the U12+, you must activate it in a Verizon device that has the advanced calling in the features already activated. Hope this helps.
[HTC U12+ Guides, News, & Discussion] JWhetstone02:
The thing is, with you V30, it came with a Verizon branded ROM. There are advanced calling and Verizon features built into the ROM. Once it activated, you SIM is provisioned with said features. No matter what you did afterwards...root, unlock flash different firmware or ROMs...those will not change/re-provision your SIM. Your SIM has those features provisioned on it.

With the u12+, there is no Verizon branded ROM available. So it will not activate the advanced calling features on the phone. This is why you need to have it already activated before putting it in the u12+

Hope that helps in some way
[HTC U12+ Guides, News, & Discussion] LibertyMonger:
Well said. Some people make it more complicated than it is.
[HTC U12+ Guides, News, & Discussion] itzelectric:
I have an older Htc 10 that I am using, but trying to get my U12+ working. Verizon is pretty much useless.. I have had 2 new SIM cards, which were of course activated on my U12. My issues are strange, I can put any inactivated SIM in my U12+ and it recognizes the SIM, registers with Verizon network and shows 4g connectivity. The moment Verizon activated a SIM, all of that goes away and the signal bars go away as if there isn't an available network to connect to and I get the 'this SIM cannot be registered on Verizon's network' message. I can take that sim out and put it in my HTC 10 and everything works fine, Verizon can remove an activated sim and once again it 'works' in my U12+, but of course I can't actually use because, obviously, when it's not activated you can't make/receive calls or texts... I have not yet tried using a brand new SIM and first activating on my HTC 10..can that simple step really make that much of a difference? I can't understand how a SIM could be toast if it still works in my HTC 10.. I also don't understand why it allows my phone to connect with Verizon only when it is not activated.. I have tried adjusting the APN settings, doesn't seem to help (not 100% I'm using the correct parameters). I asked Verizon to make sure that advanced calling is enabled on my HTC 10, they say it is however under advanced call settings I'm only able to select HD voice. When I try to select HD voice and video it says video calling is turned off and I need to contact customer support to turn it on (and again, they just tell me it is), not sure if that matters or not. I'm at least 90% certain that it is something with Verizon, not my phone, but I don't know how to fix it short of becoming a level 2 Verizon tech so I can have the access they do.. Sorry for the lengthy comment, just trying to give as much info as possible. I'm trying to set this up on US Verizon. I love HTC phones and really want this U12+ to work..

I have a Samsung Galaxy J7 and there is no ROM on it. It had TWRP installed and working, but today it stopped booting. If I push the power button

nothing happens like the battery is dead. I went ahead and bought a new OEM battery and put it into the phone. I plug in the charger and for a

few seconds, the black screen shows a battery in the middle with a lightning bolt. Then it goes back to black ... I let it charge overnight but when I

go to turn it on, it still does nothing. no matter how long I hold the power button, nothing happens. I tried power + home + Vol and still nothing.

Just a black screen and no LEDs light up. Nothing ... if I plug it back into power the battery icon shows again in the middle of the screen with a

lightning bolt, then goes back to black.

What could this mean ?? Is there anything I can try ? the phone was booting into twrp just fine until today.
