Hi all,
I am using an S6 Edge and whenever I'm abroad I see a permanent notification that roaming is deactivated and I should activate it. I cannot swipe the message away. It's permanent.
I also get a message that data connection was disconnected because roaming is deactivated. But i can swipe that one away at least
Does anybody know where I can deactivate whatevwr is causing this norification? I do not want to activate roaming nor do I want to be reminded. I am using wifi abroad.
I attached a picture for you
Hope someone can help me out
anybody?

Hi there,
I have searched and searched but I can't find anything. I know it's an unusual request but is there an app (or even some simple built-in functionality or a reg tweak) that allows you to enable all data roaming on the HTC?
The reason for this is that, in UK T-Mo and Orange are now network sharing. I am on T-Mobile but when my reception is low the service switches to Orange.
Problem is that my phone thinks it is roaming when it switches to Orange and this messes with my data services. I cannot figure out which of those services are set to disable data in roaming aas I'm not sure where to look.
I'd be happy to set all of my apps to download while roaming as I have NoDataInRoam installed for when I go abroad. The rest of the time I do want to download data when 'roaming'!!
Any help anyone? I know it seems dumb, sorry.

Have a look in the settings tab in sense, there is an option for Data Services. Go to each service you use and enable the check box Download When Roaming. Hope this helps.
Hi
I have my nice new SGS2 but there is no option for network roaming, only data roaming. In order for me to use orange network i need to re-scan and select tmobile/orange, but only get "G" data connection. When i rescan and select Tmobile i get full "H" data connection. Is this normal or am i missing a setting where it will automatically switch. I have set it to automatically but it does not switch between the two. (it's a PAYG O2 handset but unlocked)
Any ideas or will i just have to switch it all the time. Not a real problem as its onyl in my place of work that t-mobile signal is awful yet orange is fine.
Thanks
I think Everything Everywhere rolled out to everyone automatically but by the sounds of it you were missed out. As you're on T-Mobile you can sign up here:

For anyone on Orange, sign up here:

Also, if you haven't ticked the data roaming then tick it! You won't move to any other network than Orange in the UK. Just remember to turn it off when you leave the country.

Done that but still it does not switch to orange when i have no t-mobile signal. If i do it manually it shows great orange signal....just does not automatically switch...
It won't switch automatically if there is a T-Mo signal available no matter how weak or strong.
Or is there no signal available to you with T-Mobile?

I can't say for the SGS2 but I can tell you how it is on my Hero, and im guessing it should be same on the SGS2 as its an Android setting ...
If you're on T-Mobile, as I am, then scan your network and select "T-Mobile" only and tick the Data Roaming option. That's the only option you need and it's the only option available. This should then automatically switch over to Orange only when you can't access a T-Mobile signal. You'll know its done it as your network will be displayed as Orange as opposed to T-Mobile.
This is how it works on my phone and it works fine. It should be the same on the SGS2 as well.
Also apparently you'll only get "G" or "E" connections on the Orange signal. That's all they are allowing at the moment.
Hi, I have a Hero and that switches fine but the sgs2 will just show no network when i lose tmobile and not switch to orange. I see that if i get orange manually i will only get "G", its just the automatic switching does not seem to work. Checked tmobile web site and they dont have internet settings for the phone yet, but do have mms/sms settings...maybe in june when they release it they will update the settings and ill be able to down load.

They aim to do 3G roaming at some point in the future but for now it's EDGE only on data.
My network currently (ie when I drag down notification bar) is 'Orange T-mobile'

Im on t-mobile and mine seems to auto switch without setting anything. A few days ago I remember it saying orange but most the time it says t-moble.
PS: the other day I found out my phone had been emergancy calls only for neely 24hrs the only way i could get signal again was to turn it off and on so dont know if that had anything to do with it messing up when it tryed to change

1. Disable Mobile data, then wait for 3-5 minutes
2. Enter Service mode, then change network to WCDMA only, repeat it like 2 times.
Done.
Correctly good luck...

my problem is described here -Can others be so kind as to verify if they are also having an issue with receiving voice calls or SMS while their phones are using the 2G network for data access. (3G and wifi either unavailable or turned off.)
We have this issue with Orange and I have tested it on one Sunrise iphone4 and we had the same issue. Which is not surprising since Orange and Sunrise are operated by the same staff. It does work correctly over Swisscom.
I raised this case with Orange over one month ago and they still have given me no concrete feedback as to why their network behaves like this.
(FYI this is a network issue and not related to any phone configuration).
Feel free to harass Orange about this. It might get them to pull their fingers out a bit. When I raised the case it took me about 10 calls to their support plus 2 visits to Orange shops to finally get a technician who was capable of understanding this simple but critical issue.
EXACT STEPS LEADING TO PROBLEM:
1. Force phone to use GSM (2G) mode only or be in an area with no 3G coverage, or if your phone chooses to use the 2G network
2. Disable switching to wifi:
3. Connect to 2G packet data, download email or download webpages: Status Bar-> spinning wheel
4. While packet data is connecting, using another phone place a call to your phone
5. After packet data has connected, using another phone place a call to your Phone
EXPECTED OUTCOME:
You expect the packet data connection to either DROP or be SUSPENDED (depending
on network capabilities) and for the phone to ring indicating an incoming call or SMS.
ACTUAL OUTCOME:
The packet data connection persists and remains active; the phone does not ring
and the call is handled by the network as if the phone was unreachable (for most
users this means forwarding to voicemail).
REPRODUCIBILITY:
always; no exceptions.
This has been tested extensively on the Orange network by me and many other users.
Tested devices which all show the same issue, iPhone4, iPhone3GS, Iphone 3G, several Android models.
my edge was bought in a country different than the one i'm living in. it recognizes it as if i were roaming (disabling roaming disables my carrier's data services), so there's a fixed notification telling me that i'm roaming. is it possible to remove it?
thank you.
Hello everyone. I jsut got my Le Max 2 yesterday and noticed a very annoying issue. I can't send or receive MMS messages....that is unless I manually change my network from 4G to 3G. It's very strange that the phone doesn't do this itself.
I've entered in all the correct APN settings (this was needed in order for me to get 4G speeds. The downside is that it only stays on 4G unless i tell it to switch.
Some useful info:
I am on the stock rom 5.8.018S (stable)
I went into the menu via dialer *#*#4636#*#* and have selected LTE/GSM
I 'm on the Fido network in Canada (same as Rogers)
Will flashing another, newer rom solve my problem? Any help or advice would be appreciated!
I am with Freedom Mobile and do not have 4G. In the phone settings, dual SIM networks, network mode, even I set to 4G priority, I can get 3G without problem . In the *#*#4636#*#*, it was set to unknown by default. If you set it to LTE/GSM, I don't see how you can get 3G.

If I don't set it to that I won't get LTE. I can also leave it at unknown but it'll stay on 4g at all times. Point is, unless I manually go and select 3G priority and have the phone stay in 3G I won't be able to send/receive MMS.
I'm also having issues with the LED. It only works for text messages but doesn't light up for Hangouts or email (emails don't push either). As you can see lots of annoying issues! I'm not sure it's worth keeping the phone unless flashing a rom will solve this things.
