Does your EVO Rings 4 times before you hear it? Fix your "Slot Index Cycle"!

[Vizi]

I did this fix about 2 weeks ago and no problems. In the past two days I've been getting complaints that calls often can't go through to my phone. When my wife tries to call she's getting an message and is told to try again. Is this related? Is it on my end, or is it possible that its on hers? She has a Palm Pre on the Sprint network also. Thanks.

i called Sprint Customer service for this. They made the changes for me on their end, had me turn off my phone and turn it back on. Now it rings on the first ring. battery life is not tht noticable different. And, they gave me the Master Subsidy lock code over the phone.

I'm running stock. Do I have to go through Sprint?

 

[Jerzyiroc]

Yup... That app only works if you're rooted. Otherwise you gotta call Sprint. I've heard there's another way but extremely complicating.

Just wondering, but can you do a ##786# ?

If not, something is locked.

Yes, that I can do.

For the heck of it I just tried the other and it worked too. I just changed to 1 so we'll see how that works. Thanks.
