I bought LG Optimus One not long ago, it came with Android 2.2.1, i am using Vodafone North East circle, INDIA... so when i put the SIM in my phone, it displayed roaming for a short second and then disappeared. But when i rooted the phone and installed void. it showed my network as roaming, Other provider doesn't shows as roaming.
I had a HTC TyTn II before and when i installed android on that phone, it also showed my vodafone north east india as roaming (but not other providers)
So how is it that the Indian v10c_00 rom does not show my network as roaming?? How can i do the same for my custom roms??
Thanks a lot
it depends, are you on roaming?
I am from North-east India (Mizoram), and i am using NE Circle Vodafone, so no i am not roaming.
if you are not being charged at roaming rates then you should not worry. its probably a problem from the other end.
Ok thanks... im not charged roaming, but i have to set settings to use data on roaming, which is not really a problem. i was just wondering why the R (roaming) icon is shown on the original FW and not others.. Thanks again

I'll be relocating to the UK in a few months and have been trying to dig up some information on whether or not I can use my ATT Atrix in the UK for data (I know the voice should work just fine). My phone is SIM unlocked.
I've been hearing about how the Atrix allows you to switch bands using some key combinations etc. Not sure what all that's about.
Anyone tried to use a US Atrix in the UK and get 3G data speeds without any issues?
i have att atrix and i live in italy, it work for me. I was on holiday in London, and the phone worked fine

Before the last OTA update on my ATT Atrix, I visited Amsterdam and the UK and was unable to get signal with my AT&T SIM. Since the OTA update I have noticed I can no longer enter the "Select network" or "Operator Selection" menu options. I have not visited the UK since and of course hope that I will be able to get service next time.
i'm stay in italy, with vodafone italy and correct apn it work fine, in uk I had to activate the roaming because my carrier there isn't in uk, this is normal.

GT-I9100 will NEVER get better than an Edge connection (shown as an "E" by your signal indicator) on T-Mobile USA's network, because it doesn't have the hardware to receive the right frequencies to do so. To get 3g or faster speeds (shown as "3G", "H", or "H+" by your signal indicator) in the US, you will need to be on AT&T's network, or another carrier that uses the same frequencies.
I have a Htc desire, the original. Originally its unlocked from purchase and its from the UK, I have now traveled abroad to Canada and got a plan with data, but the fastest connection I can get is 'E' edge. In the UK it was atleast 'H' hsdpa. I thought it would be the APN setting that were not correct but I have tried everything I can find and still it only connects to Edge. I recently went back to the UK and it went back to a hsdpa connection. Is this something to do with frequency or a rom change that can help me connect with hsdpa in Canada. I asked this question here as this may apply to all phones and not just my htc desire.
Did you try to manually switch to 3g? It's under mobile networks in settings.
life!
If you mean Network Mode and then switch that from GSM/WCDMA from auto to WCDMA, I tried that, it loses connection to the network operator and just stays like that until I switch it back.

The carrier you use probably has HSDPA on the 850/1900 frequency, and the HTC Desire you bought in Europe is likely 900/2100. So no, you won't get HSDPA in Canada.
For verification, what carrier are you using in Canada?
I think you can't get faster Internet, because of the different frequencies.
Try to exchange the phone and get one that also works in Canada.
Im using Fido in Canada.
Hi, I live in Argentina and have a AT&T I717 unlocked with ISC official rom.
The problem is about loss signal. When I turn on the phone its show Movistar with 2 or 3 signals bars but after few hours Movistar dissapear and I cant use the phone to make calls. I have to turn off and on the phone the resolve.
I used the simcard in another phone and never had the problem.
Any person with this problem ?
Regards
I used the tmobile modem since movistar uses the same 1700/2100 bands. You also have to change your APN settings.
Long story short...
I have alway had my personal pones used in Mexico and bought in USA (ebay) I have neve had any issue as far as the phones are GSM unlocked, my last phone was the LG G7, new open box from eBay, I use the phone in Mexico without any problem as well as I use it here in Houston, 4G data, calls, SMS etc..
I arrive 3 days ago to spend time with family and I got a preowned Verizon LG V60 GSM unlocked, as soon as I put my SIM card from ATT Mexico it says Service Disabled and the Network Options are greyed with no option to change anything, I already Crossflash to the US Cellular ROM and still have the same problem, I know the phone is unlocked cause I put a SIM from Telcel and it get signal and Roaming and also detect the networks, my question is, have something changed with the service providers here that blocks the SIM from other countryes?
The only think that I notice is that I have a cheap Samsung A13 from my work In mexico, bought in Mexico and If i put the SIM card there I notice a icon of VoLTE in the signal bar, is that the LG V60 does not support VoLTE?

VOLTE is usually softwarw specific and sim card specific. a tmobile v60 will get you volte on tmobile yes but other operators on tmobile network mabey not. Basically buy the right V60 to go with your sim card and if you carrier operates on tmobile network then get tmobile v60 etc and so forth.
