Only noticed it on the EL underground as a Instagram & Email notification came through.
I'm I the last to notice?
Edit: by default I mean without the help of a Special PRL, not as in "exclusivly roaming".

You can data roam on Verizon network without any special prl.... It's 1x data.

Hiya there,
I switched to Three's One Plan quite a few months ago, and it is seemingly great.
However, whenever I tend to travel through, or visit, places that do not have Three's coverage, it roams onto a partner network (Orange, I think).
As soon as that happens, I get the little "R" on top of the network bars, and a warning triangle notification which says "Data roaming - You havev lost data connectivity because you left our home network with data roaming .. " can't read the rest :/, although a bit of online research says " .. with data roaming turned off." Under the mobile network settings, I have Use Packet Data and Data Roaming enabled, and my APN set to three.co.uk (APN type: default MCC:234 MNC:20)
Any ideas as to why I can't get any data access at all? Customer services tend to get me round and round a circle, and keep asking me to try another phone, which I would if I could right now.
Did u brought that 5L abroad data packet and u can try to flash other modems maybe this help

I am suffering a case of search block - I am betting this has already been asked and hopefully answered.
1. I want to enable tethering without a tethering plan. I know all the warnings, but on occasion find this useful. Never more than a few minutes at a time. I don't want a tethering plan because I am unlimited now, though I will switch if they get me. Did this with WP7, are the instructions the same? link?
2. I really would like to reenable the switch that allows me to disable LTE. I find that LTE drains the battery too fast and if I am somewhere and need to squeeze a little extra out of the battery... particularly if on the edge of the LTE coverage area... don't get why at&t disables this ability.
Thanks!
Tethering plan? US carriers...
I think under settings > cellular there are new settings to "add internet apn" & "add mms apn". Not sure if you manually enter your APN, if it will create a new entry with default settings and allow tethering.
Warning: I have not tried this and it might not work and/or break your stuff requiring a reset.

APN and tethering are two separate things. AT&T puts a lock on the tethering where it "Phones" home to see if you have the plan. SO changing apn WONT work
I don't care about the tethering part since I have the shared data family plan that includes tethering, but I am interested in being able to disable LTE.
At work, I'm in a fringe area, so it'll keep switching between LTE and 4G. It gets full 4G bars but will hover around 0-1 LTE bars.
After the Portico update, ##3282 will get me into the data menu which has some settings to force 2G, 3G, and 4G, but I don't see anything that would disable LTE. If I force "3G", would it actually do "4G" since its all HSPA+?

http://forums.wpcentral.com/nokia-lumia-920/203675-turn-off-4g-lte-t-lumia-920-a.html This link gives all the information for turning off LTE. Since HSPA+ is actually just enhanced 3G signal, forcing 3G will still let you receive HSPA+ or what AT&T calls "4G"

would love to find out if there is a way to prevent it from "phoning home". or even a way to redirect to another server that can give the proper "ok" to use tethering. It seems ridiculous that there isn't some way to go around this at&t check.
I was able to get my Evo onto PagePlus without too much trouble. I have voice/sms and 1X data. I even managed to get the stock messaging app to send MMSs fine. I'm not able to get 3G working, I have a donor phone but its a Droid 2 and I have no way of getting the ESN changed so I can do the Donation. If anyone has had luck getting 3G to work any other way please let me know. The only other oddment I have going on is a message that pops up very often saying "Unable to establish Data Connection". Its obviously looking for a Sprint LTE or 3G connection which I cant do anything about, but does anyone know how make the message go away forever?
I have also noticed that while I am at home, I can send SMS to anyone, but when I am at work, 30 miles away, some I am unable to send SMSs to certain contacts.
Have you tried changing your prl and roaming?

I have updated my PRL to one that turns off the roaming triangle, and set the options under data to roam data and voice without asking. If I fiddle with the roaming settings too much things stop working and I have not found a combination that will avoid the message.
I am running Android 2.3.4 on Sprint's network. I see full signal strength. I am streaming some music online on a straight road (which per Sprint's coverage has full 3g support). However, at some points, the data switches from EVDO to 1xRTT.
Is there any way to force the phone to always connect to 3g instead of edge? I am local most of the time, so I will prefer the same.
Currently, after opening the debug menu (*#*#4636#*#*) The phone is currently on CDMA auto (PRL). Is that the best one?
I finally got around to modifying my PRL on my Sprint Note 3. I'm using PRL Helper to switch PRL's out. I first started with 65002 and it worked as VZW voice and 3G evdo data no problem. Ran some video with no buffering so speed was good and verified it was VZW in settings and the rome control app. Then I switched to the 53137 corporate PRL and it still works but it doesn't seem to roam to VZW at all, not evdo or 1X...nothing. I flashed the 65002 back and now I can't get any data on VZW and I don't see any 3G icon, not data at all. Am I doing something wrong or am I using outdated PRLs? Did VZW notice that I don't suppose to be on a corporate PRL or noticed that I was getting 3G evdo data then suspended my ESN? I use Rome Control too so now when I force into rome only mode I get no data.
