For the love of all that do not like spending money.

Hey guys... I REALLY need to figure out how to turn off roaming... I am running EnergyRom April 1rst, Cookie Edition, 6.5.5

I have it set to Home Only, I've enabled all the roaming beeps and whatnot, yet ive been charged 6 minutes of roaming calls, and yet another 6 for LONG distance roaming calls.. Is there no way to just have the phone stop itself from calling when im in roaming mode or w.e? Like simply have a dial tone that wont allow me to call/ allow calls to come in!? This is ridiculous in my opinion if it doesn't.

Re: For the love of all that do not like spending money.

I thought sprint comes with free roaming. Why don't you go back to stock and see if it keeps up?

Roaming is free. No clue if you have SERO why you think you're getting charged. How does what version of ROM you have to do with billing? Check your bill online you'll see Roaming is free.

The SERO 500 has domestic (US only of course) roaming included - not sure why they billed you for it...

Re: For the love of all that do not like spending money.

**NOTICE** this may or may not be correct. it could very well be oh so wrong.

probably a regional plan because its SERO. just a refresher on how roaming works and why a sero (sprint employee referral?) plan wouldn't allow roaming. company owns tower a, does not own tower b. company has to pay extra to use tower b because its not theirs. therefor a discounted plan (i.e. SERO) wouldn't allow for roaming because they are already discounted and.

I'm on stock so i'm not sure if it's on your rom or not, but if you go into settings>personal>Phone>CDMA Services>roaming>Get settings.

You can set the phone to sprint only and that should stop your phone from making roaming calls and give you a notification if you are roaming. You can also set the data roam guard to not use data while roaming.

If it's not exactly like that ask in your rom thread to see how to change these settings.

Re: For the love of all that do not like spending money.

Yep, I get free roaming on my sero plans..... never have I been charged for roaming and I go to the mountains all the time (Continental Divide) where at times in the summer when I am out there for up to 2 weeks. My phone roams the whole time, but I never have been charged for data or calls while roaming.
