So can you force roam?

I see automatic-a and automatic-b on my sprint phone.. but I don't see the old force roam option that came with mightyrom on the touch pro?

I take it the option doesn't exist or is it now just called one of the automatics..

Re: So can you force roam?

Thanks.. I have to change roms anyway.. I mean internet sharing doesn't auto connect?? And I have to download a updater cab.. ehh!

My stock rom ran pretty good.. but didn't auto connect.. (maybe crashed once) but what was really wrong with it.. is the audio would go from audible in the ear piece to almost a whisper randomly and only a reboot would fix it..

So I installed mighty right away.. cause it mostly worked on touch pro..

But now I see it's fairly inadquate for my needs so be glad to try you rom if only cause you care about force roaming

Give this attached Switch Roam Mode cab install a try. It works great here on Sprint. Please note that if you roam a lot with Sprint, you may get warned for over use, or possibly even have your service canceled. Also note that it takes a minute for the roaming mode switch to kick in once activated. This is due to your system unloading automatic mode, loading roam only mode, and then searching and locking in on the signal.

Hope this helps,

roaming only is available. i added it to my sprint tp2. i think the automatic b is the roaming only option. its wierd because mine did not come with an "automatic b" option, jus automatic and sprint only... this is how i added roaming to mine...

i used phm reg edit to add this:

ROAMING ONLY
For Three Menus in Roaming

1st For Home Network
2nd For Home + Partner Networks
3rd For only Partner Networks

HKLM\SOFTWARE\OEM\PhoneSetting\NetworkService

ItemCount=dword 00000003

ItemName3=Roaming Only/Automatic B
ItemValue3=dword 00000005

Then Edit

HKLM\SOFTWARE\OEM\InitProv\PhoneSetting
ServiceName=Network Service

ItemCount=dword 00000003
ItemName3=Roaming Only/Automatic B
ItemValue3=dword 00000005


roaming only should be the 3rd one, it may also say automatic b. dont forget to hit thanks.

This worked Great on Mighty's Rom on sprint network. I usually get good signal, but just moved into a new place where i've been having crappy signal, going roaming gave me full signal now.

Re: So can you force roam?

I posted this in the MightyROM6 thread but haven't heard anything. I think this may be related to having installed SwitchRoamMode...
I'm running MightyROM6 using TouchFLO 3D. Normally there are 18 shortcuts (9 per screen) you can assign to a program in the program's tab however recently after installing nueBattery and SwitchRoamMode I removed one of the shortcuts to add SwitchRoamMode to this list. When I did this another (+) was added to the programs tab (making 19) I attempted to assign a program to the 19th tab however no program could be assigned to this shortcut but it created another (+) I did this a couple more times each time it created a new (+) but none of them could be assigned to a program. Now I have a total of 22 shortcuts of which only 18 of them are able to be assigned to a program. How can I remove these excess (+) or at least make them capable of assigning a program to them?

The attached picture depicts the 16th-22nd shortcut; the last 4 can not be assigned to anything.

Any Ideas? Thanks in advance!
