Hi,
Having received one of the above phones yesterday to replace an exisint phone (same number), I found it will not connect to the SS. Spoke to tech support who decided to re-sync the box. 6 hours later and guess what the phone will still not connect to SS.
The other 2 phones were fine (Blackberries) and after 6 hours they came back.
Now what? a day wasted and only 6 left before I have to return it as the SS is a must for me!
Any help appreciated.
Steve
Btw, the internet is up and on fibre so no issues there whatsoever. I've had all 3 phones (all blackberries) working fine for over a year, but the HTC will simply not connect. If I put it on 3G only it appears to connect (5 bars) for approx 15 secs then no connection at all

Hi Steve,
Try deregistering the number for the HTC One M8 from the Sure Signal for an hour.
Once you’ve added it back, try a factory reset of the Sure Signal itself.
To do this:
For versions 1 and 2:
For version 3:
If this doesn’t help, we’ll need the information requested by Matt to be able to help further.
Thanks,
Andy

Hi,
With regards to the above posts:-
Yes I've checked the troubleshooting - know it anyway!
The other phones are working as stated so checking pings etc is pointless
The issue only started after changing to HTC on 1 phone
Vodafone de-registered the number and restarted it today without success.

Finally working - level 3 sorted it, but no idea what was wrong.

Here we go again,
Another HTC arrived for the wife and again it won't connect to Sure Signal.
Contacted vodafone sure signal team, who attempted to sort by rebooting sure signal from their end (will take up to an hour) and although sure signal V3 appears up, both lights on - the device and now mine will not connect!!!!!

Hi StevenCavanagh,
It’s unusual that now the HTC One (M8) connects but yours doesn’t.
Try switching your phone off for 30 minutes and see if it connects to the Sure Signal when you switch it on.
If it doesn’t, how old is your SIM?
If it’s more than 12-18 months old, pop to a Vodafone store for a free of charge replacement.
They’ll activate it for you there and then.
When you get home, you’ll need to reset the Sure Signal following the process above.
If this doesn’t help, post your Sure Signal serial number.
Andy
