Did you use the cab or manually edit the registry.?

Here are my settings under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\OEM\InitProv\PhoneSett ing


ItemCount 3
ItemName1 Sprint Only
ItemName2 Automatic
Itamename3 Roam Only
Itemname4 Standard
ItemValue1 1
ItemValue2 4
ItemValue3 3
ItemValue4 4
ServiceName Roaming
SeriveTitle Phone: Roaming

As long as those are set it should work.

I made everything in my registry look like yours ( i only have to change the itemname4 to standard and itemvalue4 to 4) did a soft reset, and I still only see "sprint" and "automatic" under the roaming options, I dunno why its not working. Thanks for trying to help though.

Re: Roam Only

I ran the cab from post #4, and it worked like a charm. I now have a ROAMING OPTION!!! SO SWEET!!! Thanks, guys! Just made my day. Sucks when I'm at work, cause I had really bad Sprint service. My old a920 I used to force to roam at work, now I can do the same with my Pro!!

Yes. Here:

http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...1&postcount=15

I modified someone's Mortscript to improve speed and work with VGA. This will allow you to create a short cut to toggle between roam and automatic. I use it all time.

In that same thread, someone took the script I modified and simplified it to toggle only.

Enjoy...

Re: Roam Only

Doesn't Sprint require that at least 50% of calls/data are on the PCS Network?

Also something a lot of people don't know... Mobile to Mobile calls come off of your anytime minutes when roaming.
