Roaming noise - Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Guys,
Since tmpbile and orange merged, I automatically roam between them.
Each time the phone switches, it plays the notification sound, even when ringer is off - its driving me nuts.
Appears to be no way to turn off in software either.
Anyone any ideas?

Menu > Settings > Wireless & networks > Mobile networks > Data roaming sound
I don't know how you could miss it though, you'd have been there to check the option directly above it to enable Data roaming!

Oh, for fuu......! Thanks. You're utterly right. I could have sworn that wasn't there a minute ago!
Thanks

WiFi problems

I got my desire yesterday. Really love this phone. But I got a problem. The WiFi works as it should. But it stops working after I wake the phone from sleep mode. I have to toggle WiFi off then on again to get it work.
Is there a solution?

How long did you wait after awakening the phone?
It takes mine 2-4 mins to restart the connection after awakening, automatically. It's always worked.

Hmm.. I found out, Desire actually still connected to my WiFi router during sleep.
So there is no problem with reconnection at all.
I tried to wait 4-5 min. ord still connected but the ip wasent refreshing.

You can change this setting by doing the following:
Go to Menu > Settings > Wireless & Networks > Wi-Fi Settings. Click the Menu button again and select the Advanced option. Select Wi-Fi sleep policy and then set the relevant option.

That doesn't help I've had my desire on that option since I got it yet the wi-fi constantly goes idle and stops checking for updates etc, the only time I get email notifications on my phone is when I stay on mobile data.
Already on "never".
Somtimes the WiFi works, somtimes it dont.

Disable annoying desire alerts

I live in a boarder area and i want to choose network manually. I mean manually select the provider, not disable data roaming only. So i did so in the settings menu. The most annoying thing is the allerts, saying that i lost mobile connection which stop anything i do and offer me the list of available providers. It happened 17 times while i typed this message, so you can imagine how annoying it is to press "back" button all the time. Has anybody had this problem? Is there a solution to it?can you disable certain allert types or all of them? Please help my phone coz it's in danger of landing at extrem
ely high speed at my bedroom wall.

Hi, you can go to settings/wireless/ and unthick 'mobile network' and you'll stop getting the nagging screen about the lack of data connectivity if that's the problem
No, it's not only the data. I can choose mobile provider manually, but once the reception dissappears- i start getting those annoying allerts with a list of available networks. And it stops anything u do- just a full screen alert.

Changing to WiFi only Data?

When I installed my ROM, and on first boot I was given an option for when to use data.
Wifi only, or WiFi and Mobile Networks.
Now, I am going on holiday in a week and wanted to switch it to WiFi only to avoid data roaming charges.
Can anyone help, I cannot find it in the settings.
Settings > wireless and networks > mobile network.
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA Premium App
Obviously I looked there first. There doesn't seem to be a "WiFi Only" option.
If I just deselect Data Roaming, will that essentially do what I want?
Yes, just turn off mobile network and turn on WiFi.
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA Premium App
In the widgets > settings widgets you can choose mobile network and wifi network (as well as gps and bluetooth) screen widgets so you can toggle them on and off.... when not wanting to use mobile data, its good to have those widgets on one of your screens (as the dashboard widgets are usually missing one or another of those 4 essentials)
saves time from going into the settings repeatedly just to turn something on or off.

It is stated in the setting that it enable/disable data packet usage over mobile network. It has absolutely nothing to do with your phone call whatsoever. What makes you think that way?
Just kidding. In extreme cases, to prevent data on moblie network, one uses firewall to block access to any applications that try to access it.

All you need to do is deselect Mobile Network. Even the description says its used to connect to the internet.
a question really easy

[Q] Cannot turn off constant Data Roaming Notifications

Has anyone else been seeing near constant Roaming Notifications? The little triangle up int the notification bar.
I have unchecked everything in Roaming Guard and I am still getting the notifications. Is there some other setting to turn off these notifications?
I'd like to know how to stop these as well. Tho, mine wont let me uncheck the ones under GSM roaming. I thought I glimpsed somewhere that the way to turn that off was to remove a particular apk file and folder in the systems folder... but I can't find it again.
Mine remain checked as well, though they remain grey so I am not concerned with them. The only way I have been able to eliminate the messages is to change Settings>More Settings>Roaming>Roaming Network
Change to "Home Only". This is my workaround, but I dont think its the answer as I believe it eliminates additional roaming networks.
I get them all the time too and they're annoying. I ignore them. Now it's like the Boy who cried Wolf.
I turned my setting to sprint only instead of automatic roaming and I don't get the notification anymore but I will probably not be able to roam when out of sprint service area as well

I get them to and have changed the setting and they always revert back to the original. Getting very angry. How is this stopped?
Has anyone been able to resolve this?? its freaking annoying! the dang thing wont stay off!
Anyone ever find a way to delete the dang notification? Just really annoying... If someone can give me a starting point, I could try diving in, but I have no idea where to start.
Have any of you guys tried turned off the sprint connection optimizer? I've read somewhere that it stops these notifications.

I never thought that might be what keeps the network data notification going, you might be right. I had the Sprint optimizer disabled but when I went into mange apps it showed it disabled but there was a little box checked for notifications. So, for good measure I uninstalled the app completely. I'll report back with the results in a while... I hope that eliminates that annoying crap! Thank you!
UPDATE: arrrrrrrRrrggghhhh ! Still popping up.... thanks anyway. There has got to be some line of code to remove, I just wish I knew how to find the offender.
I have these roaming notifications also. Just ignored them. I'll see if I can stop them and report back.

Did anyone ever figure this out?
I'm having a problem trying to disable the Roam Guard settings. The Roaming network is set to Automatic, but I cannot un-check the Voice and Data (actually it prompted me when roaming and had a little check box to not show again for Data, but Voice is still selected and doesn't give the little check box to not show again) roaming guards for Domestic Data or International Data with exception to "Outgoing SMS" in International. I am stumped. Had them unchecked before, but had to change the Roaming network to "Home Only" because my phone was having trouble connecting to an Airave. I immediately switched it back to Automatic once it connected, and now I cannot disable the Roam Guard
Any ideas? Screen Shot attached.
1. ##SCRTN#
2. Reboot
3. Hands Free Activate
4. Reboot
5. Update Profile/PRL
Roam Guard boxes should be restored / not grayed out.

Wifi Push Notifications Problem

Hi,
after the Update for my M9 to Android 6.0, i got a annoying Problem with Wifi.
I get my Push Notifications ours Later, and only if i unlock the Display. I tried Factory Reset. disabled the Wifi Optimizier, forgot the App Settings and lots of other Stuff.
Also i checked my Wifi Connections in the Router Menu, but i have a good Signal.
If i look at Google Play Services (*#*#426#*#*) i see a Error Message thats looks like "err:FIN network:1 time: 42341"
Befor the Update i had no Problems. I don't know what to do.
And sorry for my bad English.
Enable background wifi and test your signal is good and not dropping out.
Make sure your wifi isn't set to powersave mode where it switches off when the screen is off. There could also be an option for allowing apps to update over wifi while charging.. Set it to always.

Where I can find the Wi-Fi power safe mode?
You'll find it under "settings > WLAN > press the 3-dot Menu > choose advanced". There you can change WLAN to always on and disable Battery optimization while in WLAN. This should solve your problem.

Check your network for ip conflicts, dns resolving and Network Address Translation.
