Default [Q] EVO Shift: Data Call Failure after Temp-Root

Hey guys, I'm hoping somebody might be able to lend me a hand.

After applying the Temp-Root to my EVO Shift (GB, 2.3.3 (temp-root found here)), I'm getting the following error message:

Data Call Failure
Error Code 67: Unable to establish wireless data connection.

Has anybody seen this message? It comes up randomly it seems. I'm still able to connect to the internet via wireless. I'm not really sure what the deal is. It's similar to another one going around, but the other refers to the username/password. This one does not.

I have googled the error message, but almost everything I come across is a mass hysteria of confused people. I've tried the things I've found.

I haven't tried rebooting, yet, as that'll kill my temp-root (doesn't work in most cases anyhow, from what I've read). But, I'm willing to try it tonight if no other options are available. I've tried updating profile and prl, but issue remains. Not really interested in getting Sprint support involved, as from what I hear they're mostly a bunch of... uhm... funny people.

Any help is appreciated!

I should also note: This may have nothing at all to do with the Temp-Root. As far as I can remember, it worked fine for the first day (I applied it about 2 days ago, I think). However, I didn't do anything that day that required use of the Wireless connection (but wireless was still enabled).

I'll try this tonight if no other resolutions come up (not at home currently). Thanks for the suggestion.

As per my original post, I have already updated both profile and PRL. Thanks for the suggestion, just the same.

Edit: The problem may be due to billing issues. Will wait for that to get fixed and see if that fixes is. Will report back.

Another Edit: Does appear this is due to billing issues. Seems to be working just fine again, re-rooted and all.

Was getting this Error message for about a half a day a few weeks back. Updated PRL and Profile, didn't fix the issue. Called Sprint, turns out they were doing some work on the towers. Rebooted the phone and all was good. You might want to try and put the phone in Airplane mode for a few minutes. Then turn off Airplane mode, see if that helps.

I actually tried all of that. In my case it seemed to be a billing issue, because as soon as that was cleared up (the phone didn't have service, and I didn't realize til' I tried to make a call) everything worked fine... and has since. Thanks, though.
