If you have a data plan try the AGPS fix linked in the first post. Make sure you read both the first post here and the linked wiki page. There's one minor difference in the port assignment. Make sure you follow the steps on the wiki to an exact.

You need to reinstall the fix and it should make it go away.

It will not be roaming, it will just look like its roaming. When you dial *228 you're still getting to VZW, not Sprint. So its not roaming.

Everyone is suggesting I try it however...I can't. You did not link to the Wiki from what I could see and the QPST link is dead, can't attempt anything if I can't get the tools

EDIT: Wll I just tried again and managed to get it to work, although took me over 60 seconds to get a fix on a sattelite - hopefully it will stay working

i understand that. but... will it show the roaming triangle even if i ever use *228 again? it seems to me a hard reset should have resolved that.

**EDIT** i got it eorked out. thanx guys!
