Hi,
Thanks..............
Unfortunately my son is away at College, who would know how to do this.

Would it be too much trouble to detail exactly what steps I have to take to get this program installed on my phone.

I'm sorry for such a basic question....

Thanks again...............

You are ok man, no worries. Dowload the cab I pointed you to to your desktop (know where it is). Connect your TP via usb to your desktop/laptop, check disk drive for faster transfer. Now right click on the "roam only cab" on your desktop hit copy. Go to my computer, find the TP , usually it is caled "F storage" or something like that. Open it you should see the content of your TP, once there ,right click and paste. Roam only cab should be in your TP now. Turn off screen on TP, close TP on your desktop/laptop, tuen on your TP again, find under program/File explorer. Open it, point it to your memory car/find the Roam only cab, double click it , it should self install...soft reset

I am having the same problem. I already have the Roam Only option on my phone, I did it manually by editing the registry. While roaming, voice works perfect but data won't work at all. Both 1x and EVDO don't work for me. And I honestly don't remember if data roaming worked before I did the roam only hack.

I experience the inability to data roam, I did not make any changes, it picked up again. There is a possibility that it could be Verizon or whomever prob

I started playing with it and theres actually a simple solution. Go to the roaming setting and under data roam guard make sure allow roaming is checked. I can't believe this didnt occur to me earlier.

That definitely needs to be checked, but w/o the Roam only can you can not force TP to roam only. Congrats on getting it it to work

I was the one who started this thread.

My "Allow Roaming" was always checked............

I assumed that power play, in his case he ws missing that setting, so good for him.Again, w/o the cab, you do not have the roam only option..so that is a must, btw were u able to install the cab?

Well if your TP is connected you should see it in your computer (under my computer) if that is the case just right click and copy the Roam only cab on your pc/laptop and drop it on your TP showing on your computer/laptop, lemme ask you this, is your email set up in you TP? if so, go ahead and email the cab to your self from your computer and I will walk you through the rest, if not we can phone support u to get that resolved..
