[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] ayoldguy1:
Hi, I have Verizon and after updating to Android 10 today (official Verizon OTA update), when I check the SIM status it will sometimes say "Sprint". It'll also sometimes say "Sprint" when I swipe down from top and look in upper right hand corner. Has anyone seen this? Any idea why? SIM card came from Verizon when I switched over from Sprint to VzW a number of months ago.

Thanks.
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] ktmom:
When you switched to Verizon, were you still just accepting OTAs? It kinda sounds like you still getting Sprint OTAs.

I bought a used Sprint phone, then fastboot flashed the Essential image, which prompts for the Essential OTA.
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] dark_isz:
Same. When I look up Mobile network in settings it shows Verizon, but when I look from pulldown notification, it says Sprint. Tried network reset and no change.
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] ayoldguy1:
I was just accepting OTAs. But the SIM is a Verizon SIM? Also, it seems like I have data and can make calls... how is that possible? I've gotten OTAs before (Android Pie) and didn't have this issue.
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] ayoldguy1:
Do you feel that you're actually using the Sprint network? I can't see hotspot toggle anymore in Settings, I can't see a way to navigate there.
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] HueyT:
I'm the same but I feel I'm on Verizon network and not Sprint. APN says Sprint though. As long as I use Verizon Messages app, MMS/SMS work fine though. 4G and calls work fine.
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] ktmom:
If you (y'all) go to the APN settings (settings -> Network & Internet -> Mobile Network -> Advanced -> Access Point Names), are they Verizon? Have you looked up the Verizon APNs and compared to what you have?
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] jffwarner0:
I'm having the same exact issue. Before update, all APNs were Verizon. Post update, they'll be Verizon at first then randomly change to being all of Sprint's... How weird.

Mobile Network says Verizon, APNs say Sprint, SIM status says Sprint, and Sprint's OMADM updates setting appears under about phone as well. For some reason, the phone states its brand as Sprint too, even though the device is unlocked.
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] ktmom:
When the phone was switched off of Sprint's network into Verizon's, was the firmware switched from the Sprint dedicated releases to the Essential generic release? Basically you'd have to fastboot flashed a factory image downloaded from Essential's developer page.

I'm not saying this definitely fixes the problem, but the Sprint phones have firmware specific to them.
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] jffwarner0:
This one was never on Sprint's network. Maybe mine just got the wrong Android 10 OTA pushed to it then? I'm assuming a factory reset will probably be my only hope then.
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] ktmom:
No, I doubt that the wrong releases got pushed. It dawns on me that I haven't been seeing separate images on Essential for the Sprint, and everyone else for at least a year. Maybe they merged the releases and something in the build prop is whacked.
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] jffwarner0:
So I guess I'll have to wait for the October OTA. Fun times.

Are you using the latest version too?
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] ktmom:
No [emoji854] it's my daily driver, rooted with a few mods. I typically wait until the release after a major version upgrade to do the upgrade. That gives me time to see if there are problems that will affect my use case.
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] jffwarner0:
That's what I typically do too. I saw that this was the second one for 10 put out, so I figured I was all good. Especially since the subreddit had been positive all of yesterday about it. I'm now wishing I could revert back without losing my settings, non-play store apps, and data.
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] ktmom:
It's the first of the "stable" releases. Everything else has been beta releases.
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] jffwarner0:
It is? I could've sworn I had one pop-up before this one and this one was being billed as a "hotfix" for service issues from the first "stable" release. Oh well, guess I get Sprint service speeds for a month.
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] mkempton:
Also having same issue

Hi, all. I'm so happy I found this thread. I have an Essential that was purchased from Sprint and unlocked immediately in November of 2017. It has worked almost flawlessly since on Verizon (lousy battery life some months and some odd camera stuff going on here and there).

I have always taken the OTA updates and never had an issues. I took the Android 10 update as soon as it showed available in September. A few days later my phone was showing "roaming". I reset it a few times, pulled the SIM, etc. and got it working again but the SIM continued to show Sprint. A few more restarts and it showed Verizon.

This kept happening every few days. A few restarts and it was back on Verizon. I even had the Verizon store put a new SIM in when restarts weren't fixing it.

Now I am stuck in Sprint mode for several weeks and cannot get it back on Verizon.

The issue is you cannot send/receive MMS when in Sprint mode AND I cannot receive voicemails.

I am no longer up for flashing firmware, etc. I got that out of my system years ago and just want phones that work and don't cost a fortune. I'm hoping I can recover this thing without major surgery, because my old Moto G4 is a really bad phone at this stage in its life. I finally switched last week when my wife got mad that I wasn't responding to her MMS messages. First time I plugged the Moto into my car, Android Auto nearly killed it! LOL

Is there a fix for this? I can't live without MMS (or rather, my colleagues and family can't) so I may have to buy a Pixel soon. :(

Thanks!
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] ktmom:
Have you looked at the APN that is being used? Settings -> network & internet -> mobile network -> advanced -> all the way down
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] mkempton:
Thanks for the quick reply.

"Mobile Network" in the primary menu shows Verizon, but the APNs look like Sprint names.

OTA

otasn

SPCS Global

cinet.spcs

Sprint

sprint

Sprint MMS

n.ispsn
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] ktmom:
Look up the correct APNs for Verizon and create the correct ones. Once they work, delete the sprint ones.

Edit:

I know you said your over the days of flashing, but I think I would sideload the first A10 OTA from Essential's Developer's site. You can do that in stock recovery, just using ADB.

Hopefully that will get you off the Sprint software. It's what I did back when I got a sprint version (used). I always start with the first release of the current version on the device. Often the first major release has specific stuff that doesn't get passed on in future updates. Or, that may just show how old school I am [emoji4]
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] mkempton:
Thanks again. I do not see an option to add APNs, only edit the ones in place. I see older documentation referencing adding before deleting, but I have no option to add. I wonder if this is part of the Sprint lockdown.

I will look into flashing the phone. I haven't done this stuff in almost ten years so I'm hoping it's much easier now. :)

Thanks again!

I see three candidates:

September 2019 Release | Q 10 - Q Release 1 - QP1A.190711.107 | Telus

September 2019 Release | Q 10 - Q Release 1.5 - QP1A.190711.122 | Select Open Market

October 2019 Release | Q 10 - Q Release 2 - QP1A.190711.148 | Open Market

I'm assuming I want 1.5, but I don't see anything about what "select" means. Can you confirm before I break something? :)

Thanks again!

---------- Post added 14th October 2019 at 12:21 AM ---------- Previous post was 13th October 2019 at 11:27 PM ----------

Just a quick update. I got anxious and applied the 1.5 above. It did not work. Oddly, after a reboot, if you pull the settings down all the way, you can see the network start as Verizon, then Sprint. A few times if flashed back to Verizon again before settling on Sprint.

Sounds like this is a Sprint image I downloaded from Essential's site?

Here was the link:

https://www.essential.com/developer/current-builds

---------- Post added at 12:53 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:21 AM ----------

One last update. I went with the October release and at first it was still showing Sprint. I popped the SIM out and back in without rebooting and it settled on Verizon after a couple seconds.

I'll let it sit overnight, which is when it usually reset to Sprint, and see what happens.

Thank you!!
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] jffwarner0:
I have this exact issue too (still). Mine stays with Verizon when I swap from "global" to "LTE/CDMA" under preferred network type. Service is noticeably worse, but at least everything works. From what the subreddit was saying, supposedly there's something on Verizon's end to be done with this regarding server connections. In the mean time,

be sure to send Essential an email.
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] ktmom:
I don't have a SIM card in my PH-1 so I can't double check, but you should be able to add a new APN when in the list of APNs, tap the 3-dot menus -> New APN
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] jffwarner0:
It should be there, but whatever is causing this issue seems to be blocking it for some reason.
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] ktmom:
I seem to remember back in the N6 days, the Verizon devices could not directly edit APNs. Maybe that's a carrier thing.
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] LS1_01:
Having the same issue after switching from Sprint to Verizon and got the Android 10.0 OTA update from Verizon. Mine jumps around from stating Sprint at the top but the only way I can force it to state Verizon is to switch to LTE/GSM/UTMS...switching to LTE/CDMA leaves it stating Sprint. Adding an APN option is not available when it states Sprint...I only see a list of Sprint like APNs and none are selected. However, I don't notice and performance or signal issues regardless of what network name is shown.

Has anyone successfully flashed any Verizon imagine with a clean install to completely eliminate the issue? If so, please let us know which image you used. Thanks.

Hi there!

Does anyone know why whenever I try to install some software in the HTC tytn II I get the following message:

"Installation was unsuccessful. The program or setting cannot be installed because it does not have sufficient system permissions"

I got to install some others without any problems. The problematic ones are even marked in handango as compatible with the HTC kaiser.

Hope to get an answer, thank you in advance !!

Anyways, my friend had a Nokia 3 TA-1032 on Android 9 lasted security build (i dont remember that) but he was trying to unlock bootloader. There are some tutorials on how to do that, but they all using Android 7 and/or Android 8.1 so he used SP Flash Tool to downgrade to Android 7 and now his phone is bricked. Do you have any idea on how to fix his phone?

---------- Post added at 12:52 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:46 PM ----------

Extra information, after flashing his phone using SP Flash Tool, the phone won't turn on, it just keep vibrating, like bootloop. So he formatted whole flash using SP Flash Tool, he thought that he can just format and flash again like with Windows, but now it doesn't even vibrate
[Nokia 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] djxpro:
use OSTLA (ROM Android 7.1), if it works on the first try, fine.

If the process fails (after flashing the bootloader, according to the application states), try again with sptools (Rom 7.1).

if it doesn't work either, try ROM 8.0 with sptools

I went through a lot of bricks, and managed to fix them trying anyway. Just try until you turn on.

in this same forum, there is the correct way to unlock the bootloader in android 9, since what changes are the commands to use in the ADB
[Nokia 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] xuanhaivptthn:
OSTLA doesn't recognize his phone, but I read online that SP Tools only works if the bootloader has been unlocked so...?

I will try those ROM anyways

CAMERA ISSUE - Reversed Camera - Rear Camera opens "Front Camera Harware" vise versa.

Hi,

I am having this weird issue where my phone opens the "Front Camera Hardware" and thinks it's the rear camera and Rear Camera opens with the front camera settings and it shows a mirrored view.

Sometimes it just will not launch and will just show yung the Camera functions with a Black Screen.

Installing a different camera app makes it worse as the camera shows an inverted picture for both front and back cameras.

Got today's 1.5 update - 3.7 MB. Figured it was minor fixes they discovered. Installed - now my phone is not working. When I restarted, it froze on the splash screen. Several tries - same result. Won't boot to recovery. Will boot to Fastboot - try Recovery or Start from there, freezes on splash screen. Only choice that works is turn off. If you get the 1.5 update, you might want to wait before installing it.
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] johnny8910:
Update worked fine for me.
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] kt-Froggy:
If you can actually get to fastboot, you could try flashing the full image zip from the Essential website, assuming your BL is unlocked (is it?). You will lose your data, but still better than a non-working phone...

FWIW, this update worked for me. Rooted phone, no TWRP. Unrooted first by reverting to the original boot.img, did an OTA update, rebooted, then patched the new boot.img with Magisk, and flashed to get the root back, as usual. No issues. The only thing that was a bit weird was that it took a hell of a long time to optimize apps when apying the update - it was sitting at that status message for a good 10-15 min.
