more than likely it will be a registry edit... to enable it in phone options...

Re: Diamond roaming

Since it has WM6.1, then I would guess its a simple registry hack to give you the roam only option.

Re: Diamond roaming

It's in the registry, I don't remember where though.
Check the vogue threads maybe.

As for why, some other carriers have better signal / technology in some areas as opposed to the home network, ie: by going home only they might get 4 bars of rev a instead of just 4 bars of rev 0.

most Sprint plans include unlimited roaming (as long as you dont go over a threshold continually)
