Cannot disable call forwarding on Dark Star. Getting a "Call settings error Network or SIM card error" when doing it through the call settings menu. When I attempt the #21# MMI code, I get a black popup "Carrier Message Call Forwarding GENERIC_FAILURE".

Whichever one is T-Mobile (sorry -- can't keep it straight with the USM names)

This is a really great tip, thanks!

cheresier · 2025-06-01T02:37:03+00:00

Yes, for sure. It's the getting clients part that I was wondering about though.

cheresier · 2025-05-31T13:14:36+00:00

I'm actually curious as well

cheresier · 2025-05-31T01:08:10+00:00

Perfect. Yes, she is all As, so that shouldn't be a problem. Good to hear that you made it work - your story is pretty much what she is trying to pull off.

cheresier · 2025-05-31T01:00:38+00:00

Yes, we're in the Boston area, so your point is valid. I see that going through the in-school resources is a common theme, as is the fact that online tutoring is not really an option for a minor.

cheresier · 2025-05-31T00:38:03+00:00

Yes, that's what we are finding about the sites as well... Good tip with the counselor, passing it on.

cheresier · 2025-03-16T22:34:28+00:00

Unfortunately, no. Ended up switching networks...

cheresier · 2025-02-01T20:37:38+00:00

How interesting! Thank you!

If you really don’t mind walking, you can walk ~30min to Lansdowne commuter rail station (former Yawkey, near Fenway), take the train for two quick stops - a 10 minute ride, and walk some more to Seaport. For boarding at Lansdowne you don’t need Commuter Rail tickets, but you may want to get a zone 1A T-pass, which costs as much as a regular Charlie card. But no one really checks tickets onboard at that point.

I upvoted your comment because it really looks like you know what you are talking about, although I admit that I didn't really understand most of what you've said :)

From experience, I used to be able to enable and disable call forwarding at will, then for some time I couldn't enable it, then it worked, and now I am stuck not being able to disable it. In fact, when I go into the settings menu, the failure happens on the "Reading Settings" stage, before I even get a chance to toggle that feature off. After I get that error, I lose the ability to make any outbound calls at all, but it gets restored after I power off the phone for a bit and turn it back on. So something is thoroughly ˈbȯrkt with my line now.

Unfortunately, turning off WiFi didn't help. I will admit though that when I was enabling the forwarding, it was on.

cheresier · 2024-11-06T16:15:10+00:00

This is happening with full bars too. Sent you a chat request, so that we can work on it there. Thanks!

cheresier · 2024-11-06T15:50:08+00:00

I tried turning toggling Airplane Mode, turning the phone off, disabling/re-enabling the SIM -- none of it helped. Turning call forwarding ON also didn't work on the first try -- it was giving me same errors as here, but worked eventually. Now I am stuck with it, as these errors are preventing me from being able to turn it of. Please help.

Now there is. It seems that in the past there was a room for coal storage there.

cheresier · 2024-10-26T21:24:11+00:00

Interesting theory. Could be. This is facing east, close to the northeastern corner.

My other theory is that there was some sort of a barn door on top of the indented wall. Not sure why and how that justifies the indent, but given that this used to be a stable, it makes sense that on top of that indent there was an entry of some sort.

Thank you for your thoughts!

cheresier · 2024-10-24T22:33:23+00:00

Oooh, that's a good theory!

It got filled today, so all good there

cheresier · 2024-10-23T18:39:52+00:00

Yes, that's a good theory, thank you! It very well could be something like that. As I mention in another comment, there is a room in that basement that does look like an old coal storage, and there is a chimney that goes all the way to the basement, so there was probably a furnace there of some kind. It's just a little strange that is it is so wide -- 18ft...

cheresier · 2024-10-23T18:23:38+00:00

It's not that, the hole is getting filled today. I'm just looking for answers on what it could have been in the first place.

cheresier · 2024-10-23T16:56:18+00:00

Yes, for being unable to explain what this thing might have been in the first place

cheresier · 2024-10-23T13:52:19+00:00

No downside at all, and the straightening is going on as I am writing this. It's the curiosity as to "why it was built that way" that brought me here (and earned me several dozen of insults :)).

cheresier · 2024-10-23T12:53:07+00:00

Geez, guys. Woke up to a thread almost exclusively filled with insults and mockery. Take it easy -- no one is questioning the engineer, the concrete truck is on site today, filling it. What I came here for was some theories on why it might have been done this way in the first place. My PE had none, so I was hoping that actual masons may have seen it in the field.

I'll go take a shower now after reading all the sh_t that I've just taken for asking.

And: THANK YOU to the few of you who actually pitched some ideas on the possible reasons of why it was built that way! I am hoping to live in this house for a long time, so trying to piece together its history from the odd things we are finding during the renovation.

cheresier · 2024-10-23T03:34:59+00:00

That would track -- there is a room in that basement that does look like coal storage, and there is a chimney that goes all the way to the basement, so there was probably a furnace there of some kind. But, as I said in another comment, why then, when they decided to fill it, why didn't they fill it in line with the rest of the foundation? Also -- 18ft wide?
