Sprint Treo 650 resets when trying to activate

I broke my centro and now I'm borrowing a treo 650 from a family member but can't seem to get to activate it with my account. Whenever I try to turn on the phone it stays frozen on Network Search for a few mintues and then it just says that the phone is off. And every time I put in the secondary activation code, the phone just brings up the Sprint welcome screen and then resets. I've tried soft and hard resets, the CDMA updater, and walking around outside while turning on the radio.
If it helps, under phone info the Phone Number, PCS vision username, ESN, PRL Rev, and PRI checksum are blank.
Post relates to: Centro (Sprint)

If you did a soft and the almighty hard reset then there's really nothing much that you can do except sending it for repair. Although the repair cost will roughly equal the **same amount** as purchasing a new Centro.
The next step that I recommend doing would be to take it to a Sprint store and having a Sprint Rep. inspect the device.

  • Sprint Treo 650 connection with Apple Powerbook G4 867 MHz runing 10.4.6 ??

    I am trying to use my Sprint Treo 650 as a modem with the Apple Powerbook laptop running the latest version of Tiger.
    The old Treo 600 worked just fine using the laptop with 10.3.7.
    But the old 600 died and I was forced to purchase a 650.
    The Treo 650 manual says its possible to use the Treo 650 as a modem. The Apple manual says its possible to use a mobile phone as a modem.
    I have actually gotten to the point where, after inserting "passords" like 654379 on my Treo after they were issued by the Apple. I've been told:
    "Congratulations, you are connected"
    They lie to me.
    I've read about "hacks" for the TREO and the need to install special scripts. The instructions go for 26 written pages.
    Is there not an easier way? These are the kind of things that make me not even want to visit the Apple Store ever again.
    And I love my Apples!
    Thanks for letting me vent.
    Power Mac G4   Mac OS X (10.4.6)  

    Don't know if it makes a difference (I don't think it does), but I have no problem connecting Treo 650 (Sprint Vision service) to my MBP 10.4.6 as a wireless modem. Make sure that you have the latest firmware on Treo 650 that enables DUN (Dial Up Network) on BT pref.
    I just simply used the OSX BT setup, making sure that my 650 is discoverable and with a code (paired) for security. It is also using 650 serial port as RS232 port.
    Connecting to 650 is done through Network connection on system Pref or via Airport menu. Under BT, configure as Other, the number to dail is #777 with account name and password to your Sprint Vision account (not your Sprint main account login or pw). It should be something like [email protected] for account name and corresponding password for that.
    I think this is all you need to do. Did not use any hacks (in fact I completely stay away from Hacks - I have simple needs and want to keep things simple).
    You'll have to probably try few times to get it all right and connect but it should not be too bad.
    Hope this helps
    Good luck....

  • My daughter has just bought me an iPad 2 from Dubai and set it all up for me but unfortunately the iMessage function doesn't seem to work. We keep getting messages,when trying to activate it, that there is a network connection problem - help!

    My daughter has just bought me an iPad 2 from Dubai and set it all up for me but unfortunately the iMessage function doesn't seem to work. We keep getting messages,when trying to activate it, that there is a network connection problem - help!

    Thank you both for your responses but my daughter was reassured by the salesman in the iStyle store (official Apple store in the UAE) that iMessages would work but conceded that FaceTime wouldn't. My iTunes account is registered in the uk and my daughter's iPhone has iMessages even though she bought it (and uses it) in Dubai. Can anyone else throw any light on this?

    That's definitely enough to start.
    It sure seems like it should work...and then I saw that you're using a router. It could very well be that the router is the weak link here.
    Instead connecting to your network router, try using a direct USB connection from your MBP. If that doesn't work, you read this post, which may be relevant to your problem:

    Can't verify device on website either.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Put in a request for another verification e-mail to be sent to you.
    Start here, change your country if necessary and go to manage your account.
    Also check your Mail rules and filtering, the verification mail may be going to a junk folder or even being deleted altogether. You may also wish to contact your mail provider to see if their spam filters are removing the email before it gets to you.

  • Error when trying to activate Office 2013 ProPlus - (0x80070005)

    Have been receiving this error message for 2 days when trying to activate Office 2013. 
    Please note that I do not have the option to run Office as Administrator.
    ISV using VB.net and SQL Server Express

    Hi,
    The suggestion I would like to provide was to run Office as administrator. By "I do not have the option to run Office as Administrator", did you mean you couldn't see the option or something else?
    To run an Office application as administrator, we need to find the application shortcut, right click on it, then click "Run as administrator".
    For the error message you provided, I also suggest you run the System File Checker to run the sfc /scannow command to scan all protected system files and replace the incorrect versions with the correct Microsoft versions.
    For a Windows 7 PC
    1. Click Start > All Programs >
    Accessories, and then right-click Command Prompt and choose
    Run as administrator.
    2. In the command prompt, type sfc /scannow and press Enter.
    3. When the system scan is complete, try to install Office again.
    For a Windows 8 PC
    1. Swipe in from the right edge of the screen, and then tap Search.
    (If you're using a mouse, point to the upper-right corner of the screen, move the mouse pointer down, and then click
    Search.)
    2. Enter command prompt in the search box.
    3. In the list of results, swipe down on or right-click Command Prompt, and then tap or click
    Run as administrator.
    4. In the Administrator: Command Prompt window, type sfc /scannow
    press Enter.
    5. When the system scan is complete, try to install Office again.
    I hope the information is helpful.

  • Error when trying to activate new valuation area - AU158

    Hi,
    I´m getting an error when trying to activate a new valuation area by using AFBN transaction. I get a message that says "Closed fiscal years for areas 01 and 08 differ by more than 1 year" (AU158).
    Then the system recomends me to check the settings of the depreciation areas for the closed fiscal years since the closed fiscal years of the areas are not allowed to more than 1 years apart.
    When I check the settings in transaction OAAR what I see is: area 01 - 2010 and area 08 (newest) - 2008 fiscal year is assigned.
    How can I close area 08? Will I need reopen the 01 area until 2008 fiscal year?
    How can I create the new area with the same fiscal year closing?
    Tks

    Year end closing--AJAB
    FY Change---AJRW
    If you open FY 2008, then you can create new depreciation area through AFBN.
    I guess this depreciation area doesn't generate any postings and this is only for reporting purpose.

  • Error when trying to activate new valuation area.

    Hello forum,
    I´m getting an error when trying to activate a new valuation area by using AFBN transaction. I get a message that says "Closed fiscal years for areas 01 and 10 differ by more than 1 year".
    Then the system recomends me to check the settings of the depreciation areas for the closed fiscal years since the closed fiscal years of the areas are not allowed to more than 1 years apart.
    But when I check the settings in transaction OAAR what I see is that same fiscal year is assigned to all the areas.
    I don´t understand why the system is showing me this error then...How can I ensure all areas to be in the same fiscal year.
    Thanks in advance

    Hi,
    Do you have other company codes which are using the same Chart of  Depreciation? Please check these company codes and perform fiscal  year change to them.
    It seems that the problem is related to note 421549 : the system tries             
    to check the entries for field T093B-ABGJA for all the entries,not                 
    only for the relevant company code. If there's a difference of more                
    than 1 fiscal year between the last closed fiscal year for the area                
    you are trying to create, and one of the entries in T093B, then,                   
    error AU 158 arises."                                                              
    Because according to the note 421549: the system tried to check the entries for field for ALL THE ENTRIES,not only for the relevant company  code.                                                                               
    If there's a difference of more than 1 fiscal year between the last  closed fiscal year for the area you are trying to create, and one of the entries in T093B, then, error AU 158 arises.

  • When trying to activate my iPad 3 I get a message that the activation server is temporarily unavailable.   Does anyone know how to help me activate my iPad?

    When trying to activate my iPad 3, I consistently get a message that the activation server is unavailable, Please Try Again.    Does anyone know how to help me?

    It is not bricked... I think I finally found the way:  http://www.imore.com/how-fix-activation-errors-iphone-after-installation-ios-7-b eta.
    The above artical started to help.. but eventually I did the following:
    1) put device into DFU mode
    http://www.imore.com/tip-put-iphone-ipad-dfu-mode
    2) when connecting ipad to itunes, itunes was aware of DFU mode.  Just selected the update and itunes downloaded the correct new OS (iOS 7.0.2) and did it's thing.
    Note: there was no need to download an older version of iOS.  In fact, I was always rejected when attempting a downloaded ipsw.  iTunes always said, "This device isn't eligible for the requested build".
    Device Info: iPad 3 wifi.  Software was iOS beta 7 (7 release 5 I think).

    Go to your system preferences → network → make sure WI-FI selected → advanced → DNS tab. Add 8.8.8.8 to the DNS servers. Go back to FaceTime and try to verify your account again.
    Good luck!
