phone wont let me make or recive calls

I have 4 lines on my plan. We all have the same phones. Both mine and my daughter's lines won't make or receive phone calls. We can text and use data. I have tried switching my sim card to another phone which is also on my plan that is working. That phone would not work with my sim card in it. I have tried driving to another spot closer into town still won't work. I tried turning my phone off and on that didn't work. I tried taking my sim card out that didn't work. I tried clearing the cache that didn't work. I tried to call can't make any calls. I tried to chat held on the chat for over 20 minutes. Then got disconnected.  Now they are closed. They are not even open for technical support. This is ridiculous. My bill is paid up. I checked my software is up to date. Here I've been without phones for a day now. This is the biggest crock of#$it ever.

is cricket dream 5g phone really 5g phone? why I see 4G in the Settings

I have a Cricket Dream 5g phone for year and half and didn’t look at the setting until now. I find three weird things:Under the setting → About Phone→ SIM status,  the ‘Mobile Voice Network Type’ is 4G (my other 5G phone shows LTE); Under the setting → About Phone→ SIM status, the “Mobile Data Network Type” is NR NSA (my other 5G phone shows 5G) Under the setting → Network & internet → Mobile network, the “Mobile data” is gray, can’t turn on/off (my other 5G phone can toggle on/off.Does any one have the same issues? Do you know how to resolve them. I contacted the customer service, they are not able to resolve these issues and not be able to get hold anyone in the warranty department, being disconnected twice.

What Is This Number In Call Forwarding Settings?

I see at least one other has had a similar problem and this is my question, which does not need a "walk-through" reply, telling me how to remove a number that is in my settings…📷... what is the default number for cricket, for forwarding calls to voicemail... if I need that to be set. I have this number on my settings and I did not program that number in. I also do not click on messages or answer calls from people I don't know, so I've no idea how I could have been hacked and this number is listed as being a known high risk number, and those people also did not put that number in their settings. The only other way this number could have made it into my settings is if Cricket software/returns department put it there. I would think Cricket would be able to find out who owns that number and give me the information if it is offensive/risk. I would be willing to file charges seeing as how I'm fed up with the Vultures/California Condors and their antics, if Cricket themselves cannot do so...

will my samsung galaxy z flip 5 get service anytime soon?

I bought the flip 5 and was able to get it activated in store, (I bought it unlocked from amazon) but when I was finishing set up to make calls and stuff It didn't work. I was wondering if it's not compatible yet because it's new and if it will be available soon? What should I do in the meantime without getting rid of this phone or costing too much?

Ovation 2 Text Notifications Duplicating

So I've had my Ovation 2 for a couple of months and each time I reply to an SMS from the notification in the status bar it sends me the same messaging notification the second it sends my response. I've reset all settings, I've factory reset phone, and I've done software updates. Nothing I've tried fixes it. Please help, it is driving me insane.

Passpoint-WIFI Issue

I work in the Technology division for a school district. The district just rolled out Passpoint-WIFI in all of our buildings. They also moved our division-issued iPhones from Verizon to T-Mobile, and pushed down a policy that connects them to Passpoint. They seem to work fine.The issue I’m having is that I have a personal iPhone XR (iOS 17.1) on Cricket Wireless that works so-so on Passpoint. Specifically, the iPhone email app will not refresh and get updates. It just spins. I use Gmail as my email provider.Some other apps that I have installed that use Internet access, such as Grammarly also time out.I have Googled the crap out of this and have found nothing that helps.Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Why Are Cricket Streaming Videos Always Poor Quality?

Greetings fellow cricket fans,I'm hoping some of you can help explain an issue I consistently face when trying to stream cricket matches online - the video quality is awful!Whether I'm using free streaming sites or even paid services like Willow and Hotstar, the video is almost always blurry, pixelated, stuttering, and just hard to watch. This makes it really difficult to follow the action and enjoy the games.My internet connection speeds are pretty good. I get over 50 Mbps download on Speedtest. So I don't think it's on my end.A few questions for the community:Are cricket streaming services just lower quality overall compared to other sports? Is there a setting I'm missing to bump up the video resolution? Are there any streaming sites you'd recommend that offer consistently high-def cricket streams? Any other tips to improve the streaming experience?I'm desperate to finally watch crisp, clear cricket matches live online. Really appreciate any advice you seasoned streamers can provide!

Cricket Ovation is a waste of money

I had the Nokia C1 last year and I disliked it, so not even 3 weeks ago I "upgraded" to the Cricket Ovation, and I effing HATE it! The battery will not charge. It might go up 2-3% after being on charge for an hour, but I'll look again 10 minutes later-- still on charge-- and it's dropped at least 10%!!! It was finally up to 80% about 12 hours ago... It's currently in 57%, and yet again it's been in charge this whole time! And let's talk about how it starts lagging then freezes up completely! Most of my memory is still free. I don't run apps in the background. There is no reason for it to do this every time I turn around! If runs redonkulously slow. I find it funny that it has 4 stars on the website, but everytime I tried to leave a review, the page suddenly disappeared. Wtf is that about?!The only good thing about this phone is the screen size.

iPhone automated photo editor

A couple days ago, I went to my camera roll and saw this small section where my iPhone had generated 2 edits to 2 pictures on my phone. 1 photo had the levels adjusted to it, and the other turned a live photo into a stable loop/gif. For some reason, that section is gone and I don't see any options within my photos to make similar edits.I hope this all made sense, can someone tell me how to get it again? I thought turning the live photo into a stable gif was super cool and would love to do it to some other photos.

WhatsApp issues on Samsung S10+: GIFs & attachments problem. Solutions?

Hello everyone! I'm experiencing some issues with WhatsApp on my Samsung S10+. Specifically, I'm having trouble searching for GIFs as the screen behaves strangely and the keyboard doesn't appear for me to type in my search. Additionally, when attempting to send attachments, I'm given the option to quickly send to recent or popular recipients, but tapping on them only loads all the other send options. Has anyone else encountered similar problems with WhatsApp on their Samsung S10+? If so, I would greatly appreciate any advice or solutions to resolve these issues. Thank you in advance for your assistance!
