Sprint HTC Pro won't Connect to Data while Roaming

[powerplay13]

I'm the guy that started the thread since I could not receive data while roaming ever since I got the phone.
In addition I could not make a call as I got a message saying "verizon could not authenticate your phone"

After 5 weeks of speaking with dozens and dozens of sprint techs, a tech this morning said she did something to re-authenticate my phone.

Now to my surprise data works fine while roaming.

I have no force roam stuff on the phone. My setting is just on automatic........

I hope this may have helped someone.....

Thanks so much for everyones input trying to assist.

Great site!
