i have also had this error, i have no idea whats causing it, nut it goes away by itself

Seems to only occur while I am on a call and something pings the internet on my phone. Thought it was also with text messages but I can send those and receive them during a call just fine.

So far its only happened to me when roaming and 0-1 bars signal. Good thing i am rarely in that situation.

Same for me, which happens to be my isolated office at work... :/ It's been a few days since I got the message, but I notice the message more after an software update.

I have had the same thing... went to the sprint store and the tech scratched his head... he asked are you rooted lol I said not yet

Its when you are on a call or if you go in through ##3282# and change the settings, it just is saying it cannot obtain an ip address due to no 3g or 4g at that time , could be because you have no signal in the area (roaming) make sure prls are up to date. This will help it out a little and as well as going under settings mobile network and changing it to auto connect to any tower and not just sprint only

[Q] Error Code 128?

I've been intermittently getting this error. Something about data not being able to connect.
Has anybody else gotten this error and does anyone know how to fix it? I'm completely stock, no root.
Same here! I can't figure out why it's doing this as well.
Yeah I've gotten it too. Flashing different radios didn't seem to help- mine is S-off and rooted. My sister works for Sprint she isn't the phone nerd like me but lol nothing I seem to do can fix it. Will update on how she fixes it if she does lol.
You can still make phone calls and everything else, just no data.
Try making a call, if it doesn't go through you will be connected to someone in tech support who will refresh you connection to the network. They implemented a security feature that will give ya that when you aren't being allowed onto the network.

Yep. Exactly what this guy said. Tell the guy the error you got and he'll fix it up right away.
I started getting this same error this morning, right after I flashed Synergy nightly 330. Not sure if it's a coincidence or not, but that's when it started. It's now doing it on every rom. I can connect to 4g just fine. It's only 3g that gives me that error. I've updated PRL and Profile but that didn't fix it. Not sure what I'll try next.
EDIT: Well, right after I submitted this message a second ago, I looked at my phone and 3G was connected and the error stopped. It lasted for a few hours then resolved itself. Strange.
Are you able to post the steps?
I am getting the same error and can't even call *2
Thanks
Apparently there is a national outage, that's why we are getting the 128 code.
I've been getting it all day too. I can make calls though, so I'm not sure what the problem is. I just keep getting the error message pop up.
I was getting it, too. I went on chat with Sprint and they reset me again. Had to take my battery out for 2 minutes and then reboot my phone twice. It's all fixed now.
I think there were network issues on the 20th as it happened to me as well. However, I just left it alone suspecting the network, and about 20 min later, it fixed itself.
This isn't 3d related guys, my evo 4G is doing it as well. It started after that small earthquake over here. Not sure if that's why but I was fine before 2pm today.

Maybe it was due to the earthquake today. There was an announcement from Sprint saying the sprint towers were overloaded.

That was because too many people were trying to call, but I don't see how calling people could affect the data.
my phone just started doing this recently while on 4G. i can make calls, send texts, browse internet, etc. only thing i can't do on 4G is play Scrabble. it tells me no network detected. today i was using Google Nav in Orange County by Anaheim, CA on the 5fwy and i saw the error pop up a few times. i just tapped on the dismiss button and continued on my way. just curious on the error as its starting to annoy me. i called sprint a couple days ago and they were clueless as to why it popped up. they checked the towers by my house and said they were fine and operational. but yet i know there is something wrong here. especially when i can't play Scrabble on 4G...LOL . i've also reset my data profile using my MSL# and updated data profile and PRL... anywho has anyone had this issue recently and has had this corrected??? BTW: I'm rooted running stock RUU 2.3.4 on latest radio and prl...

Not being able to play Scrabble while on 4G has been an issue with the Scrabble app for sometime. I reported it twice to the company but never got a response. This is totally unrealted to the errors others are reporting in this thread. Scrabble just needs to fix their app.
Did anyone get Sprint to fix their phone. I called them but they were not able to fix it over the phone.

Can't connect to mobile network?

So I went to visit the parents and they live in the mountains in a roaming area. I had roaming service for the first day and it went away the next? I tried updating PRL, putting the different corporate PRLs on and the 00002 prl. That didn't work..updated PRL and then tried updating Profile but the profile wouldn't update.
My phone is showing FULL bars with a triangle but no 3g, H or 1x. So I can't call, text, or use the internet. I tried restoring a nand, tried full wipe with a fresh install, tried flipping airplane.mode on and off, tried everything I could possibly think of. Even bought the roam controller app.
So I finally call Sprint and all they said is to pull the battery..tried that and no luck. They said they can't help me if I'm roaming.
I'm really stumped. Think it could just be the towers? I'm here for a week and need service for important calls.
Smart people use googlevoice. NO ONE HAS MY PERSONAL NUMBER. Therefore, as long as I use google voice.... I can re-direct to whatever number I wish. So if out of area. boom. redirect it to the landline. lol. "Sorry mom and dad. I'm stealing your phone for the week." lol. OR YOU CAN BUY ONE OF THOSE devices if they have a good internet connection. then your 3G will work. But then again. as you said you can't use data. so I'm guessing they have no wifi or internet at all. sucks to be you.

I got the phone to finally update profile. So the 3g came back and it connects to the internet now. But I still can't make calls it text anyone. but now it keeps saying "Radio Interface Resource Shortage".

Not receiving calls

I don't know if anyone else is having this issue, but it appears I am not receiving some calls and/or receiving text late or not at all. I wondering if setting the Roam setting to "Sprint Only" or "Automatic" makes a difference. This seems to be an off and on issue. Also it is starting to get on my nerves when I get text VMs atleast 3 hours after the call was made to me (keep in mind my phone never rang during those calls).
Anybody have any solutions, besides throwing this cool "buggy ass" phone against the wall?
This is a nice phone but it definitely has some bugs to be worked out. Or is all the problems related to Sprint's F'd up signals? My wife has the EVO3D and has none of these issues... wtf.

I have researched the issue and it appears this issue is not uncommon. There is already an established post started for this issue, titled; "Anyone else having reception/signal issues?" Right now it appears one the ways to fix this issue is having Sprint re-provisioning your phone. Some have claimed this has helped.
I am planning on doing this myself sometime today.
But it does seem to be a Sprint conectivity issue and/or an issue with the phones antenna.
So I called Sprint and they had me reactivate, but signal still seemed to be a problem as it still roams. They recommended I take it in and get it replaced. So that is what I am going to do as I am just under the 14 day period.
not receiving calls
are you guys still having the same issue or have a work around?
I'm also not getting calls and when I try to make calls, I receive text messages that was sent in the past. I tried to contact customer support but all they've done was have me update profile and restart the phone. This is getting ridiculous specially missing some important calls.
Complain and get a free Airave. Then you'll have perfect call quality and 5 bars everywhere in your house. Done.

I have been missing lots of calls the lastbfew days, and even wasnable to replicate the issue at my house. If my wife's phone calls mine, it will ring until voicemail on her end,and I get nothing on mine unless I leave a voicemail. I have steady, if not great signal on both (100ish DB).this is only the case for incoming calls, as I can always call out from home with no problems.
I tried that scenario a coupl dozen times, and got through 4 times.
I found two workarounds so far that seem to work consistently. (Both from other threads, can't take credit for finding them, but I did test them extensively. )
1. If I am on another call, I will get the incoming call everytime. I just dial voicemail and have someone call me to test. Without fail, the call center through.
2. Turning GPS and all location services on under settings -location. Strangely enough,all of my dozen test calls have gone through after turning GPS location on. Turning it off brought the usual 20% call success rate back.
Odd to say the least...

It isn't a signal issue, the phones just don't ring. I have this issue and have full bars when attempted calls do not come into the EVO LTE. I can make calls out fine, just no received calls. Also to make this a more peculiar issue, I go down the highway a couple miles and it works fine.
I have called Sprint and followed a blog on sprint.com http://sprint.r.delivery.net/r/c/r?2.1.GT.2Z2.1hiUnF.DfhoXq..N.1QNCs.4RAa.bW89MQ__DObeFTE0 where others have the same issue, even in the same town. Sprint has followed up with no issue and ticket closed. It is currently open again..
My girlfriend broke up with me over theses missed text messages
and i missed important calls. I called sprint he had me turn off the phone while they refreshed it. Working ok so far i will say this i unrooted my phone and when i woke up i had 48 text messages from the previous week and eight voice mails from three days ago, i wonder if everyone with this problem was rooted as well.

I had the same problem with me evo 4g and evo 3d...
I had same problem. Only way to get texts or calls was to call my voice mail. Sprint started a ticket, but since I was within my 14 days I exchanged the phone. Good thing I did cause Sprint closed the ticket on me telling me it was due to system upgrades. But it was not the network at all. As soon as they activated my new phone everything worked perfect. It was the phone the whole time.

Try This...
I have an epic4g touch and this is the only "Band aid" that has stopped me from smashing my phone!
What I would recommend doing is using Google voice as your voicemail provider. Go to the options menu on the website and have it send you an email when you miss a call.
Google voice will always log the call even if your phone does not ring. For somebody like me who uses this phone for work, it definitely helps. You may miss the call but you will at least know that you missed the call and you can call them back.
It has saved me many times!

Data service issues

Is anyone else constantly losing 3g? I can be in an area 1000 feet from a tower and I still drop to 1x. It happens all over the place. Resetting data through ##3282# does not resolve the issue. The only thing that helps is going in and out of airplane mode

That seems like such a blanket answer to any signal issues. If it were just towers in the process of being upgraded, why would cycling airplane mode on and off fix it? Why would my girlfriend's iPhone still have 3g? I just wanted to see if this signal issue was at least not unheard of.

When you put phone in airplane mod, it disconnects from tower, then reconnects when you turn your mobile data on. Your girlfriend iphone doesn't have the mod to show 1x. Plus the last radios update was buggy. Hopefully sprint will rectify it soon.
Sent from my lair.
Just to possibly clarify on what the OP stated, I think I'm having the same issue. It would be nice to know that this is just a tower thing for right now, not a problem with this highly anticipated amazing phone...which isnt so amazing right now.
BTW, I live in Largo, Florida, and I've noticed these 3g drop-outs all over the Tampa Bay area. The frequency of these dropouts is very strange though. Heres my issue with it, maybe this is also what the op is experiencing..
The phone is on, 3g works fine, texts go through, internet works, etc. All of a sudden for no reason, the 3g icon disappears. I still have 2-3 bars, but text messages and internet, etc., does not work. After weeks of this, I put the mobile data toggle on my homescreen as a widget, sometimes i can click that off and back on, and 3g comes back, sometimes it doesnt. Lately, its been more on the "doesnt" side. So then I'll be texting with someone, 6-10 text messages in, I get a "failed to send" or "could not send" message. I'll still have the 3g icon, but i notice the "data arrows" directly underneath it do not fluctuate. I understand its only a graphic, and may not be a true indicator of upload and download. anyways the only way to get messages sending again is to reboot the phone. And now lately, that too has been "sometimes working". This will even happen if i switch to wi-fi, the messages still wont go through.
Its very frusterating, seeing as how other sprint users I know are not experiencing this. (they dont have an Evo LTE)

[Q] Sprint Note 3 not registering on Airave Network Extender

So, I have had my Note 3 for about 3 weeks now and it has started to act shy around my Airave at home. Usually, I walk in the door and it's registered on it, but the last week or so it wont. Even if I power the phone off and back on it still camps on the 0-1 bar sprint network outside. My wife's S4 registers on it, no problem. I have called into Sprint, and we have reactivated, reset the profile on the phone and that works (as long as I stay within the range of the airave). The moment I leave and come back --- bam --- no airave coverage for me on my Note 3.
Has anyone else experienced this? Any tips or ideas? I have the Airave 2.5.

Have you tried resetting the Airave? Also, I had a problem with it last week. I went online to my Sprint Account > My Preferences > Manage my Airave and reentered the phone numbers allowed to access the Airave and the Zip Code and it solved the problem for me.
Having the same problem. My s4 never had an issue connecting and reconnecting. I've also tried resetting it but that didn't work. I updated the zip code on sprint's website but that didn't help either.
I recently got the airrave setup and running but my note was the only phone not connecting. I'd tried everything and what finally started it working was using PRL helper to roll my PRL back to an older version like my wife's S4. Been working great every since and I'm thinking somehow the newer PRL was ignoring the airrave.
I don't have the airave restricted in my account. It's wide open for anyone to use. I will check on the zip code. Thanks for the tip.

I live in an apartment complex so I have to restrict it to my numbers. The Airave can only handle 10 lines at a time so if it's full with other sprint users in the area, I can't get on. There used to be an option to restrict the square footage of the signal but that was removed a while back.

I had to do a similar thing. I had sprint send me the previous prl and fixed my issues.

Airave issue partially solved
Ok, I downloaded PRL Helper from the play store ((thanks piaa_nissan)) and I found a PRL list for sprint (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1880781 I found that changing the PRL did help. I went to the 51xxx PRL and it allowed me to register on my Airave. However, I did experience problems with outgoing SMS messages.
I read on the Sprint users forum that the 800 Mhz band is causing the issue with the Airave. Sprint is rolling out 800 SMR in my area and the phone will stay locked on it vs. jumping over to the stronger 1900 Mhz on the Airave.

My phone used to connect to my Airwave, but couldn't send a text.

Hmm... I may try that PRL then. When I got home, my phone connected to the Airwave and was able to send a text, but then I went back down to no bars. It was connecting and dis-connecting all night.

I spent over a half hour with a level 2 tech support guy from Sprint. I tried everything he could think of, and nothing allowed my note 3 to connect with the Airwave. I wish I could describe this better, but he had me go into a troubleshooting mode on the phone and check a channel setting. It turns out each phone is on one of 3-4 channels. One of the channels will not work with the Airwave. Guess what, I'm on that channel. It seems like the channel is 1476, but I might be off base on that one. The only solution is to send me a new phone (with no guarantee it won't be on the same channel). Sprint is upgrading the towers in my area, so I'm going to live with it for now.

Download prl helper in the play store.
Then download this file https://db.tt/xbnGV5lS and put it in the root directory of your internal SD card.
Then simply open up the prl helper app and install that prl.
Should fix your issues.
Let me know how it works.

Your documented process to revert to a different PRL fixed my inability to connect to our Airave, but now the problem sending text messages has returned. After attempting to send a text, delivery times out and I get a "code 34" error. If I power off the airave and retry, it works fine. Any insight??
