Dial #777 Error.
 
1 Attachment(s)
I get an occasional error that pops up on my phone. I only started getting this after updating to the Sprint 6.5 ROM. I updated from the factory ROM. Here's a Screen shot of my phone. Just click on the image and you can read the message. Anyone know what this means exactly? How can I correct the cause?

I wish I had more information for you. I can only say that I too get that pop up every once in a while. It doesn't seem to correlate to anything specific, at least for me, and I just hit Dismiss. FWIW, I used to get it with the 6.1 stock ROM, and Mighty's 6.1 ROM also.

From what the tech guys at USCC told me it is just that the phone lost contact with the tower. Because of a glitch, something blocking the reception, and on and on. Lots of reasons but no fix. :protest: I just dismiss it when it pops up. :disgust:

since the phone uses the cellular radio to connect to the internet, it dials out 777 to connect for data. i usually get this error if im just getting a phone call or using the "phone" part of the phone right as one of my services is about to connect to the "data" part of the phone, like weather or twitter or email send/recieve.

This makes perfect sense if the phone is in use, and another app/feature is attempting to initiate a data connection. OMG TEH LUEK WILSEN WUZ RITE!!!

JK, this hasn't negatively impacted me in the slightest.

I have gotten this message while in the subway or in an elevator where the signal was interrupted. As I don't make phone calls in those locations I assume it is because one of my email accounts is sending/receiving as programmed and the data connection has been cut off. I ignore it and simply close the popup window.

i get this too since upgrading to 6.5, though it only happens when turning the phone off. never saw this issue with 6.1.

Yeah its so useless.. its one of those little annoyance that would be really nice if someone could disable that pop-up but since it has been around so long I am guessing its here to stay.. so just dismiss it..
