Hi,
Have a big problem in that whenever I put a rom on my new Tilt 2 (which I am running on the new HSPA Bell network). My phone thinks it is roaming.
This is a real pain and I can't seem to find away around the problem.
Please can somebody think of something I might be missing?
Thanks!!

Are you sure its roaming and not mistaken the icon for something else? Also, if you are indeed roaming, which network is it? AFAIK, in ON, there's only 2 HSPA network Rogers/Fido or Bell/Telus. Who is your provider?

So I have the icon telling me that I am roaming and all the application warn me before they download data that I am roaming as well (which is a right pain!!).
I am on the new Bell HSPA network.
Any ideas?
roaming..
ok .. this is my experience about this problem ..
first my home base is Netherlands ! and im using Telfort network on my nokia .. buat the last 3 year .. Telfort using KPN Network .. if you turn ON the phone .. it will display Telfort .. but a few second it will change to KPN ...
maybe.. your operator also using another network...
if I put my Telfort sim to TP2 it will display Telfort but with with ROAMING icon !!!
cheers

Bell have their own network here so I dont think that could be the problem. I also have a Omnia 2 and an Iphone 3Gs that dont have this problem.
Also just tried to manually join the Rogers network and as I thought it would not let me connect.
It is only on the tilt2 after I flashed a new ROM onto it.
Thanks for the idea though.
Anybody else?

EDIT: read this first and then try the following suggestion
Try setting in the TP2 band selection to only HSPA and see what happens. Since bell has no GSM, and if your phone is set to 2G mode only, it's falling back on Rogers/Fido, hence, the roaming.
Start>>Settings>>Personal>>Phone>> Goto "Band" tab>>Set the GSM/UMTS band to "GSM (1900+850) + UMTS(1900+850).
Play around with the Network type by switching to GSM only or CDMA or leave it on Auto.
FYI Rogers/Fido and Bell/Telus HSPA network runs on 850/1900 band.
Food for thought....
Also another thing to consider, considering that Bell/Telus HSPA network is new, I thought i read somewhere you have to get your device "added" to their new HSPA system. Right now, only new sign-up's gets on the new HSPA network. In other words, your phone is trying to get on Bell HSPA network, but Bell rejects it since it's not in their system, so your phone hop's onto next on the list, either roaming on Rogers HSPA or Rogers GSM.

Thanks for the detailed response.
I dont think I am on the Rogers network as I get the Bell operator logo appear and the phone stays on 3G (as I cant drop to Edge because Bell dont have it on their network).
Also checking my online billing from the past few days I would expect to see some nasty roaming charges which I dont have.
Finally I also have a Jailbroken Iphone and that works on the network fine without any problems.
Its just very weird!!
Just tried to connect to the Rogers network manually and it will not let me connect. So it must be something wierd on the device.
Oh, it does show Bell operator logo. I thought the phone was registering on another entwork other than Bell.
Hmm, since you are not incuring roaming charges, only thing I can think of, is the network list that comes within the ROM classifies Bell as CDMA and not updated to reflect it supports HSPA. So it reads the network id as Bell and network type as HSPA and thinks its roaming? I dunno, i could be wrong lol! ::shrugs::

Make sense to me
I guess I can live with it if I need to. Does anybody know of a way to force the device not to flag any messages about roaming?
At least that will make it less annoying.
Hi,
I would like to be able to modify my AT&T radio and change the default Mobile Network Code for my carier, is there any software to make easy to modify the ROM file ?
Thank
I'm not quite sure I understand what you're asking, but a radio will work on various different networks, depending on which SIM card you have in the phone. So I'm not sure that it's in the radio that you need to look.
What is it that you're trying to achive exactly, why do you want to change this code ?
Well, here is my problem;
I bought a Tilt 2 on ebay, and I also get an Unlock code for it. I have inserted my Bell SIM and the phone work correctly. I have configured the APN setting correctly and now I have internet without any problem.
The only bad thing is that the phone always think i'm in roaming, but that's not true. I have to deactivate all setting about roaming check, it's not a big thing but If I got to USA I will be charged for real roaming. and another downside is that many application pup info about roaming and data charge.
I'm searching since couple days to found a solution, and I'm pretty there is one but I have not enough knowledge on programming stuff. I've look all every registry in my phone and no one can't correct this ''roaming'' situation.
That's why im turning to Radio, since this phone is an AT&T, it's propbably seaching to compare SIM network provided and ROM network. I've found an interesting site about MMC/MNC http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mobile_Network_Code
and found that the default network for AT&T is 310-410. Here in Canada We have bell and telus that use same technology then AT&T (UMTS 850 / UMTS 1900).
I would like to change the default ''home'' network code to 302-880. because my Sim Provided IMSI is 302-610 (Bell).
So to make it short. I want to change the default ''HOME'' network 310-410 to 302-880 so the phone will not be in a roaming profile.
Hope that someone can help me, and I'm pretty sure many people will appreciate this fix.
Thank You.
I don't know much about this, but surely it's your SIM card that is providing this code ? Since I could buy an unlocked Tilt 2 and put my own SIM card in it, and use it fine here in the UK on a UK network.
I can't believe that your phone thinks it's roaming just because it's a Tilt 2.
Yes, I found in my registry ProvidedIMSI="302610" that is the SIM registred network 302610 Bell HSPA network. So my SIM is telling the phone to use this network, but there is something in the phone that say it's roaming and not a home network. and I need to find and change this.
I'm not the only one in this situation and i would like to find a fix.
i have no knowledge about this only thing i can think of at the moment is just change the current radio version and flash a new rom. the latest version for radio is
4.49.25.95
and is found here ------> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=549939
follow the right steps. [:d]
best of luck
Yes, I've updated the Radio to the latest version and still have the problem of ROAMING. i've try 2 old radio and always got the roaming icon.
Any other input will be accepted!!
Thanks

I read somewhere that roaming starts when you are out of your area code range.
But you can try this too
go to ------> setting ---> personal ------> phone -------> Network (in the bottom tabs)
In the network tab click Find Network and make sure it is the same network you are using.
Network selection should be "Automatic".
Now in next tab BAND
select network type to "GSM" and GSM/UMTS band to "Auto".
Try this and let me know if this work else i will ask somebody knowledgeable like Sir Phunkee

I've play with these setting and nothing seem to work.
But maybe I found something interesting.
I've just test the phone with a ROGERS SIM card and I get 3G signal and i'm NOT in roaming mode..
Now, What that mean ? Rogers 3G is UMTS/HSPA 850/1900MHz same as BELL.
Why it say Roaming when phone is connected to BELL with BELL Sim and not on ROGERS SIM??
Could someone help me with that ? fix, cab, anything ?
Thanks
rooming
Hi
I do not know think you want to do with your tilt 2
Why you don't do a hard SPL and install a cocked rom !! as energy
I am using a tilt purchased from AT&T without contract
I get a unlock cod from the internet then I do a hard SPL it and install the energy rom in, is work like a charm with Rogers, without any problem( only the gps wish I never try
Perhaps this is can resolve your problem you should try
thanks
Already done Cjoco My Tilt 2 is Unlocked and Hard-SPL with latest EnergyROM.
Like I said before, SIM ROGERS work like a charm in my phone, No roaming warning. but with BELL and TELUS SIM I get the Roaming notif but it's not true, Im connected to BELL and VOICE,DATA,etc. work #1.
People say that it work with ROGERS because this carrier have a fallback signal if 3G is not available, with BELL if I lose 3G signal my phone doesn't work.

then i think problem is with your sim card not with your phone. Just get your sim card replaced and i am sure the problem would be resolved.
the problem may be with his sim card, but im not sure replacing it will fix anythibng. im also with bell and have the same problem on my fuze.
bios2k, how old is your sim card?
bobzero My SIM card is 2 Week Old. so, i'm not sure it because my SIM is old.
I'll give a call at tech support @ BELL to see if they know why it doing this. I'm not sure if they will be enough good to explain this situation.
I've read last night on many forums the RILPHONE.DLL could be a possible cause of our problem.
In my config I can select GSM(850,1700) + UMTS(850,1700) but there is no option to select UMTS only. so maybe the phone is searching for GSM first (rogers) that's why when I insert a ROGERS SIM my phone is not roaming.
Is there a way I can extract RILPHONE.DLL for our EnergyROM or Stock Tilt 2 rom. Maybe I can ask a Programmer to take a look at this DLL to see the code.
I'll let you know.
I've just talk with BELL technical support and they have no idea why I'm the phone say it's in ROAMING. I've talk to the billing department and they say I don't have any ROAMING fees, so nothing to worry about..
Now, I'm still at the same state = no solution
Same here.
I was checking around and found many got this problem, including BBs. Now, some claimed that after upgrading the O/S for his BB, it went away. Another person with different device upgraded his O/S and started having that problem, and it wasn't there with stock ROM.
Make me think it has to do with the software side of thing and nothing to do with SIM or radios. To pinpoint what is causing it, can be a tough task though.
scooper True, Hard task for people that don't know much about programming ROM and files, but maybe we can have help from other that wanna look at our problem.
I'm available to test if someone want to Help us .

You should try to change the radio and rom of your phone. Make sure to Task 29 b4 flashing. Another thing to make sure is you use the right radio, i mean the specific radio for telus, t-mobile or att.....
Wrong radio can also cause such problems.
I have the same issue with my Unlocked Tilt2 on Telus. I found a lot of people with unlocked winmo devices on bell/telus complaining of this problem and never have seen a solution. People say that a Fido sim will do the same thing. Only Rogers sims seem to not show roaming. PLEASE post if you find the solution or even cause of this.
I just did task29 and reflash ROM. I soon as I have the main menu Roaming Icon appear on top just beside or 3G.
Damn!! still stock with this roaming issue
anyone have Q's ?
PROBLEM SOLVED - DEFECTIVE SIM CARD. Thanks everybody !!!
Hi guys,
I really need your help with this one, here's the deal :
1. just bought my second SGS from vodaphone CH last week.
2. the phone came with 2.1 stock
3. i was not able to get data connection (able to make phonecalls and sms, but no 3g)
4. my apn settings are correct (i have another sgs configured same way on same network)
5. decided to upgrade to 2.2 (JPH) hoped this would help - NO
6. updated MODEM & CSC to the SAME ones working on my second SGS - STILL NOT WORKING
what else could it be ???
THANK YOU FOR YOUR HELP
did you install DroidWall ?
Nope,
Never heard of that Apo.
Can it help ?

Here's what's there, can you see what is wrong ?
Try this, worked for me
This is a weird coincidence. I have (had!) the exact same problem.
My problem was when I reflashed my galaxy S with stock firmware back again, I lost 3g connection. Using a different sim (which supports only Edge) I was able to get edge connection but with my sim, there was no connection.
Here's what I did. It seems when you select the band selection to "Automatic" it somehow didnt get registered properly even though it showed up on the settings->Wireless and network->Mobile networks->NetworkMode. Even though it read GSM/WCDMA (auto mode) it wasnt actually the case.
So - type *#2263# on your phone to enter the Service Mode's Band Selection.
There see if first row is [1] AUTOMATIC[] OR [1] AUTOMATIC[*]
In my case it wasnt selected ie. there was no *. So I clicked on it and did that selection myself and baam!! H connection. It connected even before I exited from service mode.
I tried a 2g and 3g card after that multiple times and it connects properly to E or H from then on.
Give it a try. I am hoping that your APN is set properly.
Anup
Thanks for the help, but unfortunately this didn't work :-(
1. Automatic was selected.
2. Ive tried to play around with the options there and within the mobile networks.
Nothing works ... this is so frustrating :-(

Why didn't you just call Vodafone and get their help before flashing the phone If you already have another SGS configured same way at the same location with 3G, then chances are there is a hardware problem with the phone.
Anyways, try contacting vodafone, they might still do something about it (despite the fact you have voided their warranty by flashing).

The problem is that I'm not from Czech Republic. The phone was purchased there by a friend of mine and brought to me...
hi there..got i9305 and its got a strange problem that every time i change the sim card it cant detect the sim cards automaticly and i have to search networks manualy and select it..then its works fine with all sim cards like t mobile phone o2 vodaphone but only with 3 sim it cant connect to network and always says mobile networks not avalible..
its was locked on EE and i used the free methoed to unlock it from xda..
please help to solve that problem
thanks
Go to Network Settings and set it to "WCDMA only" or "AUTO" mode. You CAN'T use 2G only for Three UK as it is 3G ONLY network. If this doesn't work then try different sim-card or try different Modem/Rom. Nothing else's coming to my head.
It's all OK here, 3UK as well, my i9305 was locked to T-Mobile but I've used a Unlocking Code from eBay and simlock is gone for good.

Hi,
I never test with 3G SM before with my phone.
I have changed my Vodafone plan to 3G and started using it.The SIM is working fine with 3G in my old mobile (Sony Ercsson).
When I put the SIM i my HTC it is not detecting 3G Network.If I choose GSM/WCDMA it is selecting the 2G Network and for WCDMA Only option
it is not showing any network.
Please note I am having the HTC mobile fro HTC Hongkong and now using the same in India.
Operator: Vodafone
Activity Performed:
Restart the phone and put off the battery multiple time
Factory Reset
Use another 3G SIM which is also workng in my old phone
Toggling between flight mode and WCDMA.
Results:
Just received the 3G network twice and it was sustained for 20 minutes and so.
Please note I am having good 3G Coverage in my locality and with my old phoe it always come full signal.
It happens some time
I have to disable / enable 3G to make it works.
