.:What is "Error Code 16" !!???:.

Ok some weird stuff is going on here. I recently noticed that if I'm not connected to my airave and try to make a phone call I get an error code 16. And my text receiving or out going don't go through and my incoming calls either go straight to voice mail or ring and ring the normal amount until voice mail picks up. Data also don't seem to work. nothing unless its connected to my airave which basically turned my mobile device into a voip wireless land line since I can only use it as far as my airave reach. Other than that its use less even if I am picking up full sprint signal I don't even think it will roam. Can someone please give me an idea of what this is and what might be causing it and how I could fix it without calling in! If possible!?

So anyone got any idea?

Sounds like the system has somehow locked your phone to your air rave. Calling in is probably your best bet and have your account reset.

it usually happens when you do a ##RTN# on the phone, sprint is basically upgrading their network security so it does not recognize your phone after the hard reset, easy way to fix it is to call CS from another phone and tell them you need a network refresh or walk in to a store. The reps have a special number for this issue.
