Root RESOLVED: Phone won't activate

[apavolka]

I just unlocked my bootloader and after rebooting, I have no signal. I did NOT call *228 but instead called the number on the VZW website and I cannot get my phone activated now. Anyone have this problem?

try rebooting?

Ive rebooted multiple times, did another factory reset and still nothing.

I would say perhaps a regional outage, but most likely not the case since I live just south of you and I'm running at full bars 4g. I can't see why unlocking would cause you to lose the ability to activate. not sure what recovery you're running, or I would suggest wiping your cache's and ext's.

I just got off the phone with vzw and they said no outages here and they were able to get to my phone on their end. They said to go to a corporate store and just grab a new sim card.

Nice, too bad VZ stores arent 24h

Stupid question...did you put the back, back on the phone?

 

[trophynuts]

also did you try pulling your sim card and re inserting it

Not a stupid question as most dont know what is on the inside of the cover. Yes i did.

also did you try pulling your sim card and re inserting it

I did this multiple Times.

As for an update, I ended up getting a signal this morning but they retired my sim card so i still had to get a new one.

 

[trophynuts]

so is your problem solved?

 

[apavolka]

Yes it is haha.
