Hi,
I am trying to get my Tilt 2 working on the new Bell HSPA network in Canada.
Problem is that the device always reports that it is roaming even though it is not.
Being a fairly new network I was wondering if this has anything to do with the problems and have been digging around in the registery to see if there is anything that I can find there which might help.
Can anybody shed any light on the settings in:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\OEM\RIL\OperatorContexts\
Or if not think of anyplace else in the registery that could be worth looking at?
Thanks,
P

Anyone else having issues that the roaming icon is now constantly on with Black 2.0? Would love to figure out how to make it go away. I am on Cingular/ATT
No and in my experience its completely random no matter what ROM I have used..
When I did have the problem I used the cingular settings cab at www.htcclub.net
yeah
yeah i had that issue when i went to Vegas where there is solid 3g coverage everywhere, as soon as i got back home to NJ it went away
Having the same issue.
Not really a problem but, somewhat annoying I tried the cab suggested in the thread to no avail.
yeah -- the cab did nothing for me too.. I will worry about this more if I have the problem when I get back home in a few days. (just hope I am no getting some high roaming charges)!
don't worry about roaming charges, it's all Cingular. Just some of the ROMs have trouble telling the Cingular (Orange) towers from the Cingular (Blue - old AT&T) towers. It will think you are roaming on the Blue towers for some strange reason, but they are both Cingular.
Thanks -- that makes sense. I also checked my bill online and confirmed that there are no surprises there ... the calls I made since moving to Black 2.0 and having the roaming icon are not being billed at any higher rates .. so no worries. Maybe when I get back to the bay area the roaming icon will disappear.
I also got the roaming icon when I was in Vegas, but I did not get it when I was going thru the Oakland airport on the way home...
if all else fails, try a different radio rom to get rid of the roaming icon.
New SIM card removed the Roaming icon for me.
In a strange twist of fate, the guy who sold me my device (he owns the are Cingular franchise) called me and said he needed to upgrade my SIM card. He dropped it buy and I popped it in and...
Voila! No more Roaming icon...
so is there no hope for T-Mobile US users using th 8525? lol its bugging me too!
back in the bay area -- roaming icon went away -- go figure. Not sure why I had this issue on Black 2.0 and not on LVSW

Yeah, probably no hope. I was on T-Mobile before I switched to AT&T for the 3G, and I had the roaming icon a lot with T-Mobile.
oo dang...i remember there was a registry tweak on the wizard that removed it, i dont remember what it was, but i wonder if that will do the trick...

Man!! I too are in the same area (S. Cali) and have the same damn roaming icon. It's bugging me. If you find the reg tweak, please let me know!
FYI, someone said to set the registry key in:
----------
Go into your registry and modify this key
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\RIL\NoRoamInd
Change Value to 1 for no indication.
If it's not there create REG_DWORD "NoRoamInd"
-------------
I created this but this did not work in Black 2.0. I'm all out of ideas here. I'd hate to go back to branded Cingular. Good damn hackers!!! Help us US peeps out here.

Ok so i went to use the latest WM5 Shipped Rom from Cingular/ATT: RUU_Hermes_CINGULAR_WWE_2_1_.15.502.3_6275_1.40.30.00_108_Ship.exe
Get this!!! You ready??! Interesting find... I got the roaming icon after the new OS was built. But! When it installed ATT's branded stuff from the extended ROM, the Roaming ICON went away. Something in there changed it. We must disect this and figure it out. Any takers? I'd love to go back to wm6 but I won't until this is fixed.
Hi,
I've purchased an unlocked TP2 from Clove and it seems to be working well, except for one irritating problem. I cannot select a network operator manually. I have the tab available but everytime I click on it, it gives me a 'device.exe' error.
I have been experiencing a lot of missed calls and my network operator suggested that I change the automatic settings to manual. This obviously did not happen and my callers continue to get a 'customer not reachable message'.
I tried calling HTC (India) and they had no idea on how to resolve this issue, partly because the TP2 hasn't been released here as yet.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks in advance
had the same missed calling problem, but it lies on the EDGE network where i always ON, change it to 3G and problem is gone. however, battery life decreased significantly
Unfortunately, I can't seem to find the 3G selection tab. I wonder if it's because the one I have is a Euro version? Will dig in deeper.
Thanks

Look under start\settings\phone\band change it to only use GSM and it will stop switching between bands, however data will be much slower on GSM than UMTS.
Cheers,

Still no luck. Will keep on pegging at this.
I have a T-mobile dash on a pay as go plan. I unlocked my phone and I am switching to iwireless Megatalk text phone and web.
My issue is that I can't get the internet to work with iwireless. I am guessing it is because T-mobile has some sort of lock with the internet home screen. How can I map the internet to the new carrier iwireless? Do I need to bypass the internet home screen some how? I think iwireless uses the EDGE newtwork the same as T-Mobile? What settings do I need to change and or do I need some sort of login into iwireless internet server? The phone I have is not a iwireless phone but I wouldn't think that it really doesn't matter. iwireless sales HTC phones with WM 6.1 so you would think that it is just a setting.
I think I still have WM 6.0 on my phone, I didn't want to upgrade because I was playing ROM's on my phone, DONKEY KONG....cool stuff....
Thanks,
Captain
Just search for the connection settings online and input into Settings\Connection\GPRS "not sure exact location but sure you can find" you will also want MMS & MMSC
Got help with my carrier
Just called iwireless and they helped me. No biggie took a few minutes.
Thanks,
Captain
Hey. So a problem a lot of Canadians are having is getting an unlocked WP7 to work on Rogers because Rogers is not on the list of network profiles listed. Currently Bell and Telus are on there. Unless you have a phone FROM Rogers, which has the Network Profile on it.
I'm really looking for someone who has the xml network profile from a Rogers WP7 that can share it with us here. Looking through the forums, this would help a lot of us out. Without it we have broken Caller ID and MMS.
Thanks much for any help!

If you require assistance, please call 1-888-ROGERS1 and a customer service representative will be happy to assist you.
I'm not speaking of specific entries like the data or mms apn. There is a specific xml file built into windows phones that has the entirety of connectivity information, including MMS and CLID settings, which can not be set through the settings menu. It is per carrier. But not all phones have those settings for all carriers.
..............
I have a sim unlocked Surround that was originally on Telus, now on Rogers. I downloaded the Htc connection assistant which adapted my phone to the new carrier with no problems
Sent from my GT-P1000 using XDA App
Sadly lg phones don't come with that option.
I had the same problems with my HD7. You can fix your CID issue by phoning Rogers and disabling name display, after that all CID's will show up like they should.
Well that's what I was planning to do until I realized WP7 devices on Rogers with the proper network profile settings have working name display. And also MMS. Was really hoping someone could contribute something. I've been searching google every few days to see if anyone has posted a copy of it anywhere. No luck as of yet.

Has anyone been able to get data on AT&T USA, I just got this phone today and flashed Eragon already but I don't get any data, I input the correct APN settings and tried both sim card slots but still nothing. I took a look at the engineering menu but i'm not very familiar with it since it's the first time i've owned one of these phones. Does anyone know a way to get any sort of data on AT&T USA calls and texts seem to work fine so far I know 4G isn't possible but I read that 2G maybe even 3G is but I have had no luck. anybody have any info on this?
