Re: VERIZON users on Custom Rom's - annoying voice-only network notification??

Let me start by saying I don’t have a solution for this, but as someone who loves NRG’s ROMS and travels overseas a great deal, I’ve made several observations that I will share which hopefully will provide clues to whomever has the right experience to figure this out. Basically, the NRG CDMA ROM is unusable if you have Verizon and travel a lot. But as several have said, I don’t think this is a ROM issue, but rather a carrier provisioning issue. As far as I can tell, looking all over the forums (this thread seems most relevant) and comparing stock and NRG custom registries, there are many things missing in the most recent Verizon provisioning cabs as it relates to traveling outside of the Verizon network.
A) Assisted dialing entries and dlls/executables are completely missing (this is needed to adjust the dialing prefix depending on where you are and how you saved phone numbers – e.g. with or without +1,001, etc.)
B) Under phone->options->CMDA Services and GSM/UMTS services, many of the options are missing or different (some of it including “Network Services->Automatic-A/B”) have been discussed here
C) If you are in a GSM or UMTS region, then the data dialing option of “VZW Embedded GSM” is missing (explained in this thread already) and you cannot connect to a data network even though you can connect to a 3G voice network fine
D) If you are in a CDMA area, then everything seems to work but you get the frequent annoying message that this thread started with
I have tried all of the ideas mentioned in this thread, as well as tried copying several registry settings, dlls and executables from my stock rom to NRG’s to no avail. I will keep trying different things (blindly since I really don’t understand the guts of the OS or the Verizon stuff) and will report any progress, but until this is fixed, I’m back to stock. L
