Re: No signal while "Roaming Only"

sounds like maybe there is a batch of phones that are not capable of forceing roaming in this manner

You guys are life savers! I'm in Chicago here, and I have a refurbed sprint touch. On my first touch, the forced roam worked great, however on this one it doesn't work at all. I've been on the phone and in the store for hours. The tech at the store told me its not my phone, but the network, and that alot of people in Chicago are having a hard time roaming. Which is complete BS.

I just used the ##PRT# edit, enter MSL method and it worked great. However, I tried to change item value3 to 5, and it didn't work. I don't even have an itemvalue4, so not sure there.

Either way, can't wait to walk into the store and show the tech how the ##PRT# edit actually works!

Let me know if anyone has found out how to avoid having to use PRT all the time....

Re: No signal while "Roaming Only"

Wanted to say thanks for all the people that posted in here. I finally got my Roam Only working.

My registry settings are as follows:
ItemCount = 3
ItemName1 = Sprint Only
ItemName2 = Automatic
ItemName3 = Roaming Only
ItemName4 = Standard
ItemValue1 = 1
ItemValue2 = 4
ItemValue3 = 5
ItemValue4 = 5
ServiceName = Roaming
ServiceTitle = Phone: Roaming

A soft reset was required. After that its worked every time. Thanks again..

Re: No signal while "Roaming Only"

Thanks guys, this is awesome. I also could not pick up a roam signal. I needed roam only because the roam signal in my apartment is solid, while the sprint signal hangs on by a thread. On automatic, my phone chooses a weak but present Sprint signal over a stronger roam signal. However I could roam when the Sprint signal became unavailable. I just needed to manually choose the stronger roam signal.

The ##prt# method works great for me. A lot of work but worth the trouble. Then I changed my registry like ^^^ and now "Roam Only" works directly from the settings. Perfect!

I'm not sure why ItemValue3=3 works for most, but we need ItemValue3=5. I also added ItemName4 and ItemValue4 just to be safe. Doesn't hurt.

By the way I have a Palm Treo Pro.

Re: No signal while "Roaming Only"

I have tried several cabs and none of them worked for me. The last reg edit seemed to work though thanks for the help it's been a long time.
