Roam Control options??? - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I noticed that the "Roam Control" app does not work for the SIII. I cam from an EVO 3D using "MeanROM" and he had 'Roam Only' built in and it came in VERY HANDY. If you are on the fringe of Sprint, you can switch to 'Roam Only' and it will lock on the roaming partner in the area and most of the work much better.
Anyone have a solution for this on the SIII ??

that's pretty original. so you don't have anything to offer?

It's because you posted this in the wrong section...
Big no no....

Send an email to the author. Maybe he can fix it in the next patch.

Did you try the other manufacturer settings Roam Control provides?
Chiefly, Nexus and Other? Or, did you remember to hit Options and change it to Samsung?

yes and yes. still a no-go but figured out another alternative that may just be better!

screw prl edits... I've been attempting this mod over and over on galaxy s phones since the og epic. lol
Problem being, is that the smali looks nothing like the EVO's, or any HTC phone for that matter. HTC either built in, or didn't remove the methods used to switch roam only on or off. I have a feeling i might be persisitant enought this time around (now that i own the phone i'm dev'ing on) to get the job done. As i've also found Roam control not to be working here. We'll see how it goes. Keep your eyes peeled. This is def a mod i want to bring over to the G series
Oh yeah... you're def on the wrong section. This is a Q&A post for sure. lol

Myn said he would try to put it in his ROM too....
I have emailed the roam control Dev twice and no response....

As with all other cautions, roam only when necessary and use Sprint or Wifi for major downloads. Abusing Sprint's roam agreement can get you terminated. Apparently 300MB per month or so brings your account to their attention.
If you force a Verizon PRL, simply update your PRL normally to return to Sprint.
AS A NOTE: This is a Question. It belongs in the Q&A. No doubt it will be moved shortly. That little sticky thread labeled "READ THIS FIRST - Development Rules" clearly dictates what is allowed in the development forum.

??????? If it wasn't currently locked or going to be released locked then HTC would say so, as this is giving them bad PR.
From the statement they released it undoubtedly wasn't going to be released unlocked....

Can the xtc clip not even unlock it because its suppose to unlock all bootloaders and devices up to date ?
There's a difference between locked and encrypted. The Evo3D bootloader is encrypted. Which requires cracking a 256 bit AES key. Anyone work for the NSA?

Verizon is selling your browsing history to marketers

I read somewhere that verizon is selling our browsing history. So I decided to call them up and ask to opt out. They are actually doing this. Seriously. I cussed him out until he hung up on me. I am no where close to being done. I would call up and complain about this. This is an invasion of privacy.
Uh oh, they're going to find out about jayochs' you-know-what videos
Seriously!! I'm wondering now if att and other providers across the globe are doing the same thing..

Ok, so I hung up on the first guy so I decided to call back to make sure that I was opted out. This time the lady said they dont do that and the guy is apparently going to get reprimanded. I dont know what to believe.
I don't think they could do this without a change in their privacy policy... I haven't received any notification of a change in the policy for years that I remember, however sometimes I just chuck that stuff in file 13 if I see it. If such a change came out, it would cause a huge stir in the online community, and I haven't seen any such thing.

Does Verizon use software installed on handsets to collect this information, or do they collect it externally by inspecting the traffic going across their network?
If they are installing software on our phones... well thats bad and shouldn't be allowed to happen.
If they are using equipment on their own network to inspect traffic... well, we can't do anything about that other than switch to a different service provider. It's their network afterall..
This is like CarrierIQ. That junk was everywhere and as soon as consumers found out, Verizon and a bunch of other networks got hit hard.
I don't think they would make that mistake again (I am giving them a lot of credit here).
It just makes me mad whenever they think that they can just go on our phones. Internet history is private property, and they shouldn't be snooping in it.
