im still having a problem with data roaming and i think maybe sprint has changed something. ever since the beta ive had this problem. i was not able to force data evdo roaming on an alltell tower even though my girlfriends phone in the same room could on the sprint 2.17
now we are both on the newest sprint rom and this is what i can tell you, neither phone can force data evdo roaming. I can get them to see the evdo signal, but when i actually connect it wont work and drops back to 1x. this is with full evdo signal.
Another piece of this puzzle is when i am on automatic mode, when there is no sprint signal available, i can roam on evdo just fine. I think they may have changed something to not allow us to force data roaming in these new radios.

it sucks for me because i am in a fringe area for sprint and only get a weak 1x signal, which is enough to keep me from roaming on evdo
