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

I'm looking to get a better handle on who else is having this problem.

If you are a Verizon TP2 user and load a Custom ROM (I use MightyROM but I have seen other ROM's like Juicy referenced for the same issue) what happens when you roam outside of EVDO coverage areas (By ROAMING I mean no longer on VZW towers)

I get this really annoying pop up message every few seconds that says the following:

The entire screen dims and this message pops up to the top, which means you must get rid of it to do anything else on the phone. The message will continue to come up every few seconds, forcing you to constantly OK this message in order to use the phone.. but realistically this makes the phone unusable. No one has yet found a way to disable this notification.

This doesn't appear to be unique to a particular ROM.. therefore my theory is there is something amiss with the kitchens being used to create these ROM's.

In either case, on the stock Verizon ROM you have three options, Automatic A, Automatic B, and Home Only. On the custom ROM's there appear to be only two options, Standard and Home Only. I don't know if this is the smoking gun or not, but what I do know is that using custom ROM's on the original Touch Pro, I had three options for Network Service but all the Touch Pro 2 ROM's seem to have only the two.

If you are affected by this, you won't know until you roam out of EVDO coverage and into 1x territory. I got surprised by it when trying to use my phone for GPS, which this stupid message basically stopped me from being able to do. As it stands now, if I had to use the phone as GPS again in the near future, I would have to flash back to stock. I have tried hard resetting my device and tried a couple of ROM's while in the problem area and they all have the same symptom - this was with nothing installed except the carrier provisioning CAB, fresh from a hard reset. I have also confirmed that I do NOT get this message with stock ROM.

Does anyone have any ideas? I'm not getting anywhere in the Custom ROM threads and there were a couple of threads about it here in the main section but they quickly got buried. I'm guessing that since you don't see the problem until you roam, and EVDO coverage is so good, the TP2 is so new, as is the ability to flash it, that perhaps there aren't THAT many people who have actually seen this error yet.. but I'd love to get this fixed or get an idea what's causing it so there is at least a workaround. I'd hate for someone to get an ugly surprise like I did.

u might need to load the carrier cab on your device!

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

No that's not it.

I'm not personally having this problem cause I'm pretty much engulfed by VZW towers but I know what he's talking about.

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

What he said. TO BE CLEAR, I am hard resetting the device, loading the carrier provisioning CAB, and testing in a 1x area.

You might lose 3G but you're probably still on a VZW tower. I also haven't experience this but like I said that's cause I'm always on VZW towers. Think this only happens when you're roaming on another tower.

As requested here is my Radio and ROM versions.

And janko10 has a very good point. You have to be ROAMING in order to see this error. In my case, I was traveling in the boondocks in US Cellular territory.

that miek be a radio error popping up not rm specific... VZW radio specific... as i dont get this when im in a 1x area.

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

I believe it only affects devices on VZW network, while roaming on non-VZW towers in 1x mode. That might sound like it wouldn't happen very often, but next time you try a road trip of a few hours and get outside metro areas you'd be surprised!

It only happens on custom ROM's, and thus I think that Verizon isn't being 100% provisioned properly or the kitchen is flawed. Remember those Automatic-A and Automatic-B settings? I no longer have those.. When on stock ROM, I have to be on Automatic-B, as Automatic-A will cause issues, and VZW tells you to do this in my area. Thus, since I only have two options for CDMA Network Service in custom ROM's, that is where I suspect the issue lies. I do not believe it is specific to a certain custom ROM but I believe most if not all custom ROM's are affected.
