Just got my phone and it worked fine for the first day. For the past two days however, I have been unable to make or receive calls/text messages. 3g and 1x work fine but everytime I dial out, I get: "we are unable to complete your call, please try again"

I am rooted via revolutionary and running the stock deodexed rom and latest radio. I tested cdma connectivity after rooting and everything worked fine. I've had sprint reset my profile, updated prl etc...

I've been told by CS that there is an outage affecting certain users, anyone else not able to use the phone part of your smartphone?

If you are getting an "Error 16" then you have to call Sprint and have them fix it, takes 5 minutes. They don't care.

However if you are on the East Coast you might be experiencing the same crap I am. Most Sprint towers are still down. I have had to use the Alltell PRL to get decent speed....I figure WTH not, I'm already roaming 100% of the time, I might as well get decent speed.

Where would I see this error 16? I've called sprint and had them reprovision my account twice and just about everything else I can think of. Im located in hawaii and my roommates og evo works fine.
