I just went w/ the cab file since I can uninstall it.

So what this tweak does is that it gives you more option in Settings/Phone/CDMA services?

If you're in a poor signal area, your phone will switch over to a different network to allow you to make the call. This is great, but the problem is that as soon as it senses even a faint Sprint signal, your phone will jump back on to the weaker spring signal resulting in more dropped calls and poor call quality.

What forced roaming allows you to do is to stay on the stronger signal network. Your phone will disregard trying to get back on the Sprint while you're on the call. Very useful. Unfortunately it only works on Sprint as far as I know!

I don't see the roam only option in my settings with the cab you provided.

Thanks

I can say for a fact this doesn't work on Verizon. I have tried in multiple areas and it can never find a roaming network. This is why I have a cheap prepaid SIM card to go onto the AT&T network if I ever need to Roam.

If his cab just did what my registry edit did, just go in and remove the added lines by hand, exit, wait a minute, then soft-reset. Or try to install the cab again, it will ask to remove the previous installation, allow that, then when it asks where to install it, exit out/cancel

Re: I got the "Roaming Only" thing working
 
It added two additional entries something "phone" and that was after the 3 entries, I removed those and soft-reset. Working again. But, when I goto roam only, it never connects to anything. I know we have roaming here, must be something else. I verified that I have the three entries, as referenced in OP.
