why would it only register with 911 or 611 though if its not the phone ?
A phone can call those numbers even if is NOT connected to a number, so the problem can be determinded based on what the phone can and cannot connect too.
I am going on lunch now so I will check back in 30 mins.
I now turn my phone off/on at least once a day and the problem is solved. Try this see if it works.
Let me ask you this, are you in Cingular systems or AWS?
1)You using a LG phone, there is a known issue involving the compatability of the sim cards with the LG phone, if you have it then you to cll blue care they will need the primus sollution, for this primus issue ATTW36501

its the service, its goona be like that for ANYONE that stays on the ATTWS service.Simple as that, you can sell it, but it won't help who ever buys it. as this is happening for everyone who has attws service, and will continue till everyone migrates over.
I work in TDMA and the number one cause I have seen of people not getting service anywhere they go is they don't turn the phones off/on at least once a day.
I am up to 8 people now with that problem that has solved it.

son by you turning the phone off and on is what is known as "power cycling' or force registration.The simple fact that is a temp sollutipn within a few minutes it happens again, its a known service issue.

I have been doing the "power cycle" option greater then the last 2-3 months, I even received a kudos from TSD stating that I did my job really well.

See the agreeements allowed them to use the other carriers networks, but since that agreement was dissolved in october, then those customers in the divested markets as well as the other "former attws" customers will have it like it was before april 2004, they can only have access to the att network, if anyone remembers the blue side ...
