Is anyone having problems while roaming? - Samsung Epic 4G Touch

In my house in the back I have no service and it roams and I get 1 bar. When I had my evo 3D it would roam with 3G, but this phone doesntlet the phone roam with data. Is anyone else having this problem and if so is there a fix yet?

Under network settings what is your roaming set to? Sprint or automatic?

Force phone to roam

I need help to force my phone to roam on verzion network

Roam control in the market will do what you want.
Roam control works great. You will only get a 1x signal though so its only good for calls and texts.

It worked great for me when I had a weak or no signal in the mountains. Works fine here in Raleigh, NC as well.

force roam

Sprint is terrible in my area so I always force roam when im home and ive been doing this for about 6 months now with no problems, but Lately when I turn force roam on I get no service or 1 bar. Ive tried to reflashing roms and also updating profile and what not. Any help would be cool, thanks.
Maybe sprint saw how much force roam data you were using and cut you off

That'd probably what it is. At least they didn't cut you off for roaming too much.

3G 4G LTE

Does anyone know how I can change the network? Most of the jelly bean roms don't have 4G I'm on 3G with the dragon rom. Anyway where would I go to change this? In the build prop? I know some say change modem but that has nothing to do with it. Any help would be great.

You would think it could be changed in the build. I have been looking through the build prop but just not sure if that's the right place to start or not. Has to be a way to re write it.

Change the network? It's determined by the Access Point Names and the Network Mode. If you're accessing an LTE-capable APN then as long as you're Network Mode is set to LTE/GSM/WCDMA (and your in an LTE area and have LTE provisioning on your plan of course) you're phone will access it if it's the strongest signal for you.
1 bar of LTE is way faster than HSPA+ btw

Do you have 3G or Hspa+ because on the stock roms it says you have 4G but it really isnt , it is Hspa+.

Have you actually ran a speedtest to determine your actual network speed?
I did a speed test and u get like 23mb download but that's included with my build.prop tweaks
Sent from my Desire HD using xda app-developers app
You can Change the apn right then add z few modification to build.prop then you should have better faster network speeds in theory

So how do I set my Network Mode? My S1 (I9000) has a 'network mode' setting under 'mobile network settings'. It lets me choose between GSM, WCDMA, or both (auto). My S3 has no such setting or option. By the way, the I9000 always worked better in WCDMA Only mode.
I am on a Straight talk plan and have no access to 4G network.

4g settings???

Am I missing something where are 4g settings? Lol

More settings> mobile networks> network mode
Then choose combo with lte listed

Hmm. Doesn't seem to work for me.

It's not working on my either and the LTE option was already chosen.
I believe they screwed up on this, they'll probably fix this with an update.
They're setting us up. They're not gonna give it to us until the 4g lte price hike.

Funny I get 4g like no body's business. I stay connected even more so than my daughter's evo lte.
Try set to home only (sprint) under roaming. Notice my data is a whole lot stable compare to automatic.
Yeah it works...i get 4g. It connects automatically

Roaming

if i purchase roam control will i get fast 3g while roaming on verizons network or will it be slow. currently now when my phone goes into roaming i get very slow 3g data even if i have full bars
I always wondered how this works too
Sent from my SPH-L710 using xda app-developers app
You have to use a prl that supports 3g roaming also. If your just using the prl that came with the phone then your prob only roaming on 1x even though the phone says 3g. Theres lots of threads on this matter however u might find some helpful info in this one http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1906471 btw.....LTE roaming is impossible.
Besides roam control is there any other way to force roaming??

By loading a VZW PRL. There's a thread in the dev section with a bunch of them.

Or manually force your phone to only use the 850mhz band, which is basically what Roam Control does on the S3.
and how do i do that? can you please provide a link
