[Q] Error code 67??? - EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Around 2pm today my Evo started giving telling me:
Error code 67. Registration Failure. Your PCS Vision username and/or password may be incorrect. Please try again.
And I've been unable to use any data since.
I've done some searching around the threads and found a few pertaining to this problem. I've tried everything they've suggested ( from simply rebooting to finding the msl and going in to tinker with the data) and nothing has worked.
Do you guys have any ideas what could be going on?

Try updating profile or prl.. And other than that it can be a "pay ur bill on time" scenario...
This is my EVO, there are many like it, but this one is mine....

change password
hi. so i dont know if you solved this issue yet . it doesnt pull up the tread. but anyway if you havent.... i just dealt with the same thing .and for me it was as easy as going to the sprint website and signing in. then i changed my password in the account>> update or edit profile . and i took my battery out for a few minutes and rebooted it.. its worked flawlessly for me. hope it helps and its easy enough if it doesnt you started simple. atleast you dont have to go through a big run around first. it might be something as simple as just changing your password

Error code 67 for htc evo

I really need help guys plz help me i dont how to fix this it all started when i apply the new wimax radio if u can help im a android fan
Might help to explain what you are trying to do when you get this error.
Also when requesting help, try to include the following info:
1) hardware & software versions
2) the recovery & rom you are using
3) the problem you are having
4) what are you doing when the problem occurs
5) what are the expected results
6) any error messages you encounter
Sorry if I'm long winded. I work in a help desk. Providing accurate details always makes it easier to find potential solutions.
you're probably talking about the "Error Code 67" message that says your Sprint PCS Vision username / password are incorrect or something like that. Basically that is sprint's way of saying its not recognizing your phone's credentials on its network. if so, the simple way to fix this is call sprint and go thru their tech support until you get escalated to a real technician who will inadvertently give you your phone's MSL. (or find out your msl some other way) and will try to walk you thru the rest of the process of restoring your data profile.
but, if you want to try it yourself:
open phone app, type ##3282#
enter unlock code (6 digit msl)
>Edit Mode>Data Profile>(Menu Button)>Restore

I get this once in a while. Usually rebooting fixes it.

Rooted phones? ^^^
Have yet to get this error.
I used to get this silly error on my blackberry too so I doubt it is simply because my Evo is rooted.
Hmm. Can't wait to 67 for the first time.
im not sure if you said your rooted or on stock rom, if your rooted you need to be running the stock rooted rom, then go to the section where you can update your prl and profile. update both it will act like its not working but it will say updated successfully, reboot, then should fix issue.
Just update your profile and PRL whenever you get this after doing a reboot, and reboot again.
It happens to everyone, it just means Sprint's network had a hiccup, or you tried to turn on Sprint's hotspot app or HTC's wired tether without paying for it.

Ditto. I agree this usually works... Sometimes just a profile update is enough.
As far as the comments about "Rooting" being the cause... I saw the error 67 Data Failure at initial boot out of the box as the phone was being activated

Are there any other suggestions for this? both profile and PRL update attempts fail because this error blocks the data connection completely. I have also never attempted to use sprint hotspot or any other tethering options.

2) the recovery & rom you are using
-unsure?
3) the problem you are having
-constant "Error code 67"
4) what are you doing when the problem occurs
-anything, most common with any data operations or activating the 4g connection
5) what are the expected results
-not getting an error. having access to data
6) any error messages you encounter

Just FYI, if you saw that on launch day (and especially if you don't live on the East coast) that was due to Sprint's authentication servers being overwhelmed from all the new data and phone activations. Literally took two hours and three calls to Customer Service to get my phone's data connection fully activated and clear out the Error 67 messages.

Have you gone to a Sprint corporate store or nagged customer service lately? What ROM are you currently running?
I was on phone for 4 hours yesterday with same issue...no data due to error 67....finally a hard reset solved my problem. It reprovisioned data immediately upon reboot. Just make sure you fully backup before doing so. I used titanium backup and I'm good to go now with data.

I started getting this out of the blue this morning, all morning. Kept trying to update profile, but that wouldn't work. Kept power cycling, update profile through 3g, then update profile through wifi. Eventually it went through, took a while and many tries though.
Sent from my blah blah blah blah
the thing was it was updating but then the error would pop right up shortly after... but now all the sudden its been ok... so i guess ill wait it out until the replacement gets here and if its still ok i guess ill send the replacement back

[Q] WiMax Not Working After Stock ROM Applied

I did the OTA root of my phone earlier this week and applied the Fresh ROM and the WiMax Radio Update. After that my WiMax stopped working. I get "Connected to Sprint" , "Disconnected" , back to Scanning. I did notice that my WiMax MAC was not correct and followed the steps using the adb commands to correct it. This still did not solve the WiMax connection issues.
I spent a good amount of time yesterday trying to "unroot" the phone and go back to stock. The RUU methods weren't working because of bootloader version issues. I finally found some advice here to to use Toasts Step 2 Method to downgrade the bootloader. This worked and I was able to then apply the Stock ROM using the RUU File RUU_Supersonic_1.32.651.1_Radio_1.39.00.04.26_release_171253
After getting back to stock I allowed all the OTA updates to apply. I'm still having the same WiMax 4G issue. The WiMax radio turns on, goes to scanning, connecting, disconnected, scanning.
I called Sprint last night and they had me do a ##786# reset with my MSL code, PRL Update, Profile Updates, etc. They also tried having CC remove the 4G services and re-provision. I'm still stuck with out the ability to connect to WiMax.
Before I return the phone ... anyone else have any suggestions I should try?
Appreciate the help.

I am having the same exact problem, i was told its something deeper than just the MAC address problem, i would just get a warranty replacement or exchange your phone since youre within the 30 days.
I just installed Netarchy's Stock 2.2 with Root, then applied the radio updates he listed, doing WiMax last. My 4G just says "scanning" when I turn it on, and never actually connects. I am hoping the tower near me is just down at the moment, but I am doubtful.
After I check in a couple of areas if 4G is still not working, I will try reseting the phone and root it again, running the 2.2 w/root, without installing radio updates.
Other then my WiMax getting flushed, Froyo ROCKS. Battery is lasting much longer, better features, etc.
I updated my radios with:
Radio update: 2.15.00.07.28
and
Wimax Update 26023
This is all you have to do:

Only thing that worked for me, do this step, then install the ROM you had before. Like I said, only thing that works!

I tried this ... started over all the way back to original RUU. Still no 4G. I took my phone to the Sprint Store today, left it for a tech to look at.
has anyone else heard of certificate issues that are used in WiMax authentication? I wonder if those certs were damaged by the radio updates. You'd think going back to stock RUU would repair that.
Maybe the stock RUU doesn't actually update the radio device?
If you have the latest radio and 4g is not working you need to flash the Rom again, just the Rom as the radio is already update.
Ps: remember do a titanium and or nandroid back up b4 flashing, good luck.

Flashed the ROM multiple times, still no luck.
ok have you tried a different rom? Just flash a different rom and test the wifi to see if you have the same issue. If it works then you know your issue was with the rom...

In my case flashing back to 2.1 stock, 4G worked again, no problem. But I want the 2.2... The thread for Netarchy's 2.2 stock rom with root has a few people having the same issue, but for most people it looks like the rom is working without WiMax issues.

Your 4g certificate keys got messed up. There is no known solution other than a replacement. I've been to Sprint, I've been online with HTC. There is no solution. Doesn't feel like there will ever be one.

thanks ill go in tommorow for replacement....jeez i'm at my wits end. going to try one more factory reset-root-flash....then im throwing it at the wall.
I am having the same issue with several roms. I just keep going back to the 2.1 when it fails. I have tried every update for the radio I can find, I am going to try again with some new radio zips, but so far 4g is just not working on any 2.2 rom that I try.

[Q] 4g gone?

So, I started out with 4g working. I was on stock kernel with fresh rom. Then I did a backup and flashed cm6. Ofcourse cm6 doesn't have 4g, so because of this, i did a full wipe and went back to the backup. Then i flashed 2-3 kernels like kings, and netarchys. Finally i flashed bakedsnack kernel and rom.
So right now I'm on bakedsnack. BUT my 4g doesn't seem to work. When i enable it, it says "scanning" and then "connecting to sprint". After that it loops back to scanning, and then to connecting to sprint again. Over and over.
I know it sounds as if I'm not in the 4g area, but this happens everywhere and anywhere i go. Even if im 50+ miles from my home (where it worked previously.)
Does anyone know how to fix it?
oh and i actually have clear wire at my house, which has the same exact coverage as sprints network, and right now i have 4 bars on my clearwire.
There are several things that can be done to fix this. Try deleting the tree XML file first, forcing your phone to generate a new one:
Using a terminal emulator or through adb on your computer....
su
ls /data/misc/wimax
(You should see a file with your mac address - several numbers followed by tree.xml)
rm /data/misc/wimax/xxxxxxxxxxxx.tree.xml
Then reboot. Your phone will generate a new tree file when it boots back up. Flip on 4g and see if that fixes it.

Have the same issue good luck I havent found a fix other than a replacement phone
I have the correct mac I need I have certs etc etc
just reflashed it to start over. Seems to have teh same problem. Still have the 0016. Re doing it again now.
Same problem still, except now it does:
Scanning, connecting to sprint, turning off, turning on, scanning, etc..
sorry for the bump, but i had a nandroid backup of my old fresh rom with stock kernel. At first i wasn't expecting much when i restored, but i just saw that in the /data/misc/wimax dir, there are 2 xml files. One of which has my own hex (or w/e its called), the other one is 0016. I deleted the 0016, but it keeps re appearing. Is there any way to fix this?
I tried to adb remount it, but for some reason i cant. Is there another way to check to see if my rsa keys are still there?
Thanks
edit: I have now successfully changed my xml to the mac address, but 4g still doesnt work =/
I've had the same issue for a while now. I was on the 2.2 "leak" and it was still working. I used the roll back hack to get back and then went up to rooted 2.2. Since then, I've had nothing.
- My MAC was wrong, but the fastboot fix got that worked out.
- My tree.xml was wrong, but I renamed it and a new one with the right MAC in the name was generated.
- I went all the way back to stock unrooted (2.2 Final RUU) S-OFF and everything and still nothing.
I have mine sitting next to a friends and he's got 3 bars. Mine just keeps scanning, connecting and turning off then turning on (same cycle as the OP) without getting anywhere. I'll be watching this thread to see if there are any suggestions posted that I haven't seen in my searches. I think I've tried 4 ideas from other threads to no avail. If I don't get this worked out I'm going to have to visit the dreaded Sprint store and kill half a day waiting on them to test and most likely replace the damn thing but whatever.
Yea, im taking mine to the sprint store today. Tried everything. I cant even update it to 2.2 using the normal updater thats in the phone. Just fails at signature verification.
The problem is, I bought mine on craigslist, would they still replace it? Or am i ****ed?

[Q] Data network not connecting

Hi. Well I had rooted my phone and was running CM6.1.1 with snapdragon kernel. When the evo shift came out, I bought it and changed over to the shift. 3days in to using shift, the micro usb port failed and would not charge. It wouldn't even recognize when connected to my computer. So had to go and return it.
But when I changed over to evo, it started having problems with data connection. I could make calls but it would not be able to connect via 3g. It could connect through wifi but that was it.
So I unrooted my phone using .ruu and haven't tried it yet. Could you guys help me out and advise me in what option I have. Thanks again.
I had a similar problem when I had my hero....I lost 3g and ended up finding the solution was to wipe all, flash a sense rom and then go back to cyanogen....
Thanks. I'll try that and see what happens. I'll switch to evo tomorrow and see how it goes..
i had a similar problem with 3g data being very faulty after i updated all of my radios to the latest versions. what i did to fix the problem was full data/cache/dalvik wipe and then flash the radio: EVO_Radio_2.15.00.11.19, flash the wimax:EVO_WiMAX_27167_R01, and flash the PRI: EVO_PRI_1.77_003. Prior to that, i had the latest PRI and it would constantly screw with my data connection, so whatever you do, do not update to the latest PRI. Its actually been said that something weird is up with it and that this problem is common.
the radios can be found right here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=715485
good luck man, hope this helped!
I have the same issue. I went from CM7 to a sense ROM and I still dont have date even after the new radio updates. Is there anything else I can do?
Have you already tried reverting back to your old radio that worked?
sure did. Nothing.
I actually did a full unroot using ruu. Then started my phone again back in stock mode. It worked after full unroot. Now I re-rooted my phone and back to using CM6.1.1 with snap dragon kernel.
Same Issue Please Help
Im having the same issue as the OP. I went from CM7 to a sense ROM and lost my Data connection. I can only connect through wifi. However I can't update my profile or my PRL This is a pretty big issue for me as I can't use any data features on the phone except when connected via wifi.
Can someone please suggest a way to re-establish my ability to connect to the sprint network. I do not have 4G in my area so I can't try that route. I have searched the forum for the last day and a half and still haven't found a solution. Ive tried reflashing the newest radios and still no luck. I have cleared the dalvik, cache and factory data reset mutiple times and I have tried sprint lovers newest ROm and also even tried reverting back to the original backup I took when I first rooted before I flashed any ROM's and still no luck. I also tried the ##3283#/MSL code/Data/ restore option and still nothing.
ANY Suggestions? Unrooting would be a last resort option followed by going to sprint and getting a new phone.

going to a sense rom, dialing ##data# and then entering your msl, then going to edit mode, top section, hit menu, and do a reset?
this usually fixes alot of data issues from what i am aware. It won't harm your phone anyway.
Yeah I have tried the ##data# restore multiple times and still nothing. It will reboot and begin the hands free activation but it never successfully completes it. Afterwards when I try to update profile it just sits in a loop saying "the network is preparing you services..." for 20 mins and then times out with nothing happening. I even tried the ##data# restore method again after reading this, for good measure, and still nothing.
Is it possible to connect via 4G and update my profile even tho I cant via 3G? I'm about an hour away from any 4G service I think Cincinnati may be the closest.
this is extremely frustrating and the worst part is that I dont know how it happened as I followed every instruction to the tee and Ive flashed mutiple multiple ROMS over the last 6 months and have had no problem until I tried going from CM7 to myn's warm2.2 rls5. After flashing the ROM and wiping EVERYTHING except the SD card I flashed the new Radio's (Cualkin's Combo pack with the newest Radios) and that's when I noticed the data connection was gone. I'm not sure as which step of the process caused the issue as I didn't notice it until I began to go thru the initial setup on the phone and was unable to connect to my gmail account.
I have backed up a few versions of rom's. Would they have the Data info I need and maybe a could just copy and paste a file or does this info need to be downloaded from sprint in order to setup the phone?
Please any advice??? I'd like to try all my options before I reroot and exchange it, If unrooting and returning is my only option can someone please point me to a good guide for the process? I used Unrevoked 3.21 for the root.

[Q] *HELP!*T-Mobile Galaxy S II Network Problem

OK guys i'm a complete noob here at XDA (registered yesterday) but i'm getting really desperate and confused and since i've seen XDA is such a great community i thought i'd give it a shot...
My GSII had been running BeastMOD ROM II v3.0 for about a month now and it worked like a dream but about 3 days ago i turned off my phone and then turned it back on a minute later and I HAD NO NETWORK!! Now, that i recall i didn't do anything to cause this. I called t-mobile and went through all their troubleshooting, no luck. I flashed BeastMOD ROM II v4.2, no luck. Re-flashed BMOD 3.0, no luck. I noticed i don't get ping to my network, I have no IMEI number(i get null/null), and no baseband version(unknown). I'm really worried and hopefully you guys can help me some suggestions ASAP as i haven't had network in three days.
restore a back up of your stock if you still have it.
and this will only get me back to stock and not undo root or will it? will try
Here's what happens. I try to do my first stock ROM restore and it says
"Checking MD5 sums...
MD5 mismatch!" <--Whats wrong? I'm currently doing a restore on a backup three hours after that one which i'm not sure which one it is (maybe the first backup after i installed BMOD 3.0) but hopefully it will do something.

Hey thanx for that last link but the freakin person that made that method just bailed on me after his method screwed with my phone. I have stock now but i have a problem where my phone keeps rebooting until it gets network and even after it finds network and gets its IMEI and Baseband version back, that "fix" doesn't let me use data and for some actions the phone says the SIM card is not ready or available. and when i turn off the phone and back on it keeps rebooting until it finds network like i said. I don't know what the EFS is but that could be something that is making the phone malfunction. Please! Someone help!
i had almost the same problem.
My IMEI is still there, but it just won't connect to any network! All of a sudden, I woke up and it wont connect!
I'm getting a replacement sent to me from tmobile. weird.
