Does somone know how to solve this issue?
When I trigger an email update on the phone I continually get a warning asking me if I am okay with using data while roaming?!?!?!
Does the phone automatically think I am roaming because it is Australian? Is there a Windows Mobile Setting somewhere where I can define that my home market is Canada?
Some help here would be sincerely appreciated. Thanks in Advance...
you might try going into the account setup on the automatic send/receive page under advanced settings there is an option to use automatic send/receive schedule when roaming
Thanks for this response...I was hoping for a setting that would change the phone to make Canada as my home market...I am also getting SMS messages showing time 3hrs behind me (i.e. USA West Coast Time...)
Thanks Again, help anyone?!?!?!
Settings -> Regional Settings
Try changing that to your own country?
I wouldn't know otherwise.
Not particularly familiar with Telstra issuses, my phone was from UK running a standard rom with no carrier customisations/carrier lock and running on Optus HSDPA.
Never have these problems - I know i still roam onto the Telstra network eg is train tunnels etc.
Try using the in the Settings/Control Panel -> Connenctions-> Connection Setup. Country = Au, Operator = Telstra.
But I'm not sure if you have that icon since you are carrier locked (i'm guessing) to tel$cum.
If no one else is replying because its a region/carrier/rom specific issue try asking the question @ http://forums.whirlpool.net.au/
I have posted this plea elsewhere, but without getting any help ... pls forgive the cross-posting.
I've left my Canadian GSM carrier for lousy coverage, and my Xperia X1a is now with Telus HSPA. The phone works well, but I yet haven't figured out how to setup the X1a for HSPA data (leastwise, as it is now, if I try to 'QuickGPS' I get a connection failed message). If this cannot be remedied, I may as well not pay for data.
The phone also nags me because it believes the connection with the carrier is generally not setup properly. It's as if it has a list of Canadian GSM providers, and there are no other possibilities(?)
Please advise ...
TIA & cheerios from the Avalon Peninsula, Newfoundland
you would have to manually set up the data information as telus set up is so new no chefs have cooked that information into their ROMS.
Call telus and have them tell you the best settings to use.
They may also have to refresh your profile to allow you phone to be recognized properly as their settings used to be hardwired into a different set up then sim cards.

That may be the primary problem. That is, I haven't yet found a way manually set these parameters, and as a "unsupported device", the Telus person may not be Xperia-savvy any more than I.
However, if I read you reply correctly, I should be able to choose to manually configure the phone for Telus HSPA, voice & data(?) All that I've been able to find is an options list that shows all the Canadian carriers, and I'm supposed to choose one (which presumably automatically configures the phone for that carrier). I was hoping to see "other", the selection of which would take you to a dialog that would allow manual configuration(??)
you can manually do the connect setting by going to settings - connections - connections and then enter information desired.
Do not use the connection set up because that wull give a list of recognized providers from the xml files.
G1 Help Help Help G1 says no service when im home but when I'm moving to any other place other than my house I have service what's wrong with my phone cause I used to get perfect service where is the antenna on a g1
could that there's no signal at your home. ?
go to wireless settings, scroll down to Mobile Network settings, make sure data is enabled, select network operators. let it load while it searched networks. att and tmo pops up, select your network, most likely tmo, and reboot.
You might have to select the Network in the setting. I had similar problem and I went in to select my network and it gave me signal.
EDIT: Default is uncheck.
Hi All,
I've been messing around with my phone and accessed the *#*#4636#*#* settings thru the dialer. Any one know what the following does?
Testing-->Phone Information
Scroll about half way down there's a popup menu that lets you select a whole bunch of different network types. ie WCDMA, GSM, CDMA, etc.
Does this mean if I take my Sprint phone to Europe or Asian I could use their networks without flashing a new radio?
Thanks,
Ken
This code is used for accessing Service menu of your device.
And you cant use different networks without flashing radio
Even flashing a new radio wont get you new frequencies it seems...

What the network type selection allows you to do it turn off network grades (ie, 2G/3G/LTE)
For example, I turned off my LTE as I don't need that speed and the coverage is spotty. So, in doing so I end up saving battery life bc my phone will only search for 2G/3G networks and wont flip btwn 3G and LTE all the time.
If you want to use your phone on a different carrier in a different country, you'll need to have your SIM unlocked and possibly have flashed the radios required. This should be all there is too it, but I could be wrong.
As it is, if your phone is not the dev. version, your phone will be locked to Sprint, so your phone will not connect to networks that are not Sprint.
Please help I'm in same situation and have no service issue after messing with that setting menu, i have mobilink jazz sim card and xt1526 sprint

Now that you fine folks got s-off working on version 4.4.2 for the HTC One, I was able to put Cyanogenmod on it today. Things seem to work okay, except for the one glaring issue: I can't use the phone to make or get calls. If I look at Settings->About Phone->Status, I get this:
Network - Verizon Wireless
Mobile network type - LTE
Service state - Voiceut of Service / Data: In Service
Roaming - Not roaming
Mobile network state - Disconnected
I suspect that I might have the wrong "Mobile networks" settings in the Settings->Wireless & Networks->More section. For the Preferred network type, I selected "GSM/WCDMA/LTE", but I've tried a few others with no positive effects. For System Select, I'm set to Home Only. If I try to search for available networks, it returns an error and doesn't find any.
Any ideas? Thanks!
I was reading more into this, and people on Sprint found this issue when using Cyanogenmod last summer. I don't know if a solution was found, but the workaround was switching the network type to CDMA only, and then switching "back." The "back" is the key for me (I hope). What should it be set to? I don't remember what it was before I started messing around. It may have been global, but I tried that to no avail. Does anyone have a minute to pop into their settings and check? Thanks!
