Is there a way to update the PRL or Network? - HTC Desire 610

I got an AT&T SIM card today for my AT&T prepaid the desire 610. The signal is consistently on 1 bar and goes from 4g to Edge and I can hardly ever send texts without them failing. Is there a way to update the PRL or something to update the network on this phone? Unfortunately, there's no PRL update option in the settings like there is for the desire 510.

Just a shot in the dark here but have you tried turning your phone on safe mode just a see if it's not something that's third party that could be affecting your signal or messages. Before I installed adaway I had addblock Plus and it was making it to where I couldn't send any messages.
I don't know too much about troubleshooting phone signal but i have had 3rd party apps toggle weirdness with my calls/text before. Also make sure your APN settings are right

Use rooted jetstream as phone?

Does anyone know if it is possible to use a rooted Jetstream as a phone? I assume it would involve accessing the phone.apk somehow, but i am unsure.
It would be nice to be able to toss my vivid SIM card into my Jetstream and have a phone/tablet all-in-one.

I was able to enable and access the phone menu, the dialer is huge on the tablet screen, but I did not actually test it as at&t puts a voice restriction on all tablet plans... It would need a phone sim card to test, but then again it would have the wrong data plan for data, which would throw up some flags on your account.
Instructions are similar to the HTC Flyer, just needs some build.prop editing.

Cool. I will give this a try today. I have an LTE data plan on my vivid, so I will try that SIM. Between that and possibly setting up a new APN this may work.

I have done it.
working ok with Orange SIM card on a rooted Jetstream.
SMS works perfect, send and receive sms from the Jetstream (Need to download from the market an sms client, i used SMS chomp)
As for the phone functionality:
Dialer - works as expected both orientations (able to call who ever is in my contacts)
Able to dial and get a ring on the other phone, call start but there is no voice.
Missed called notification, works, both on lock screen and at the notification bar, showing a red missed call with the details.
Not working : Voice, no voice on any side of the call, nither on the jetstream or the other called phone, the call is active, both sides are connected and call minutes is running, but there is no voice at all.
tried earphones, speaker, bluetooth, nothing gets the voice working.
this is still needed to work on till a fix will be found.

[Q] Can't send MMS messages

Randomly this evening, my phone has decided that it no longer wants to send any MMS messages. I can send SMS messages just fine, but MMS messages do not go through. They sit for a while, and then it just says that the text message cannot be sent.
Anyone have any suggestions that don't involve factory resetting?

You have 2 options.
1)do master reset and retest it.
2) call your cell carrier.
I had a similar problem a few nights ago. All I had to do was reboot it.
That's all I need to do for a few random glitches.

Do you have data disabled? I noticed when data is disabled, mms do not go through..
Sent from my XT910 using Tapatalk
No, data was enabled. I was able to browse the internet and such, so I don't think it was a connectivity problem. But it's fixed now, so I guess it really doesn't matter.

Okay. When I said it was fixed that was actually a lie. It's started doing it again. I have no idea what caused it, but it will sometimes work and sometimes not. Any ideas anyone?

Not that I'm aware of.

Will it be the APN settings problems?
In some country you have to set your mms APN manual
Mine does the same thing. A restart is only a temporary fix because it has done it again a day later or so. I have not found anything to fix it yet.
I am on 4g. Not on wifi. unlimited messages.

Try this on dialpad
*#*#4636#*#*
Wacth phone services
Then tap second right update buttom
It must be filled with Service Center Number, for sms/mms data. If you get 'update error', you may have a bug in system that prevents it from correctly setup of older sim cards (mostly cutted ones), if so, buy a new micro sim. It's cheap and solves a lot of small problems
Thanks, and if helps any way, share the learnin'

I tried this but every time I entered the code nothing popped up. But I think I've figured it out. It appears to only happen when I'm connected to a WiFi network. So I guess I just have to disconnect from WiFi if I want to send an MMS message.

Well, it'd boring this way. Try Apn Droid Pro on G play, it will keep mms on

I had the same issue, tried a number of things to fix it. Called Verizon and apparently it's a known issue that they expect to be fixed with the upcoming GB update. Other than that the only way I was able to workaround was installing Go SMS Pro, which sent MMS messages fine.
I figured out what the problem is! It stems back to the problem the Razr has with switching between 3G and 4G. In my house, I have to use WiFi because I live on the edge of a 4G service area. I get maybe one bar of 4G service, which without WiFi, pretty much refuses to do anything having to do with data. Apparently, even though WiFi is enabled, the MMS messages are NOT being transmitted over WiFi. So instead, it attempts to send them over 4G cellular data and fails because of the poor reception in my house. Switching the phone from CDMA/LTE to CDMA only before sending the messages (my signal reception jumps to 4 bars) allows it to send without failing.

Need questions answered!

First some background:
OG HTC Evo 4G
I'm rooted running masons latest kernel.
TeamDIRT RemICS UX JB ROM
Now what I'm wanting to know as I want to share the info behind what I've found but need help digging into this phone to share it.
My service from sprint was shut off. So I installed Gvoice to try to make calls via WiFi. Also in "Mobile Networks" a 3rd option showed up "Affiliated Network". Since selecting that I'm able to make Free calls. With out being on WiFi. Signal strength is fantastic and call quality is perfect everywhere. I'm not able to receive calls but I will know if im in WiFi range if someone calls via Gvoice VM.
So what is needed to get the info from my phone to share with the community?
What apps do I need?

mms pics wont download

ran searches and tried suggested threads, still no solution.
bought 2 s3's. one for wife and one for mom. texted pics to both phones. moms will receive pics but wifes wont. they are bone stock.
for some reason wife get box stating "download". when pushed i get pop up stating "unable to download, try again later"???
then in the text window appears an expiration date and time???
anyone ever get this?
is it a difference in settings between the 2 phones?
i dont see any difference in them however
Are both phones on the same carrier?
I'm pretty sure it's a carrier issue.
Check both phones APN settings are correct (Settings - more settings- mobile networks - Access Point Names) also make sure mobile data is turned on as you need this to send/receive MMS.

[Q] Yet another Resound issue of mine - left ear beeping headphones.

Well here's another issue I'm having, that didn't seem to arise until recently (or maybe I haven't noticed it until now, but that's unlikely). I'm getting the dreaded left-ear beep in my headphones with my resound. I read that this is apparently the sound when your rezound is roaming and it finds a new network or something like that. I read a solution on a Verizon website saying all I have to do is disable the roaming b

My message got cut short :S
I read on Verizon that I need to disable roaming beep in mobile network settings. The only problem is I don't have that option in my settings. Is other a hidden menu I can go into from the phone dialer or something to disable this? I am running gsm-compatible AOKP 4.2.2 jellybean with T-Mobile as my carrier. And yes I tried disabling network roaming itself as well as switching headphones and none of this worked.
