Hello folks. I am searching for an application that switches off my internet connection from countries that my roaming is not free (meaning non EU countries).
Well the technical challenge would be to keep track and recognise that it is entering in an foreign provider non approved.
Thanks for the help in advance.

Hello,
Have tried searching xda-developers, google, and apps to no avail.
My SGS2 thinks I am roaming when I am not, so certain Apps will not work as they were intended.
Is there anyway and or app that would override the phone/sim to think I am not roaming.
Thanks in advance for any solutions.
There is a option in settings-wireless and network-mobile network... Data roaming, untick that, i do not know if it does anything for you, and maybe choose automatic network selection, according to sim... other than that, i wouldn't know... It is strange if its roaming all the time in a home network...
When un-checking Data Roaming the phone will no longer connect to Data services as it thinks it is Roaming.
If selecting the network or leaving it to automatic it makes no difference.
I had this same issue before with other phones and was hoping with Apps or Root Access I would be able to finally force the phone to think it was not Roaming.
Did you by any chance use same sim card on all of your phones ? if yes, contact you service provider, because no phone should think its roaming all the time. I doubt it its up to the phone, as apps go, i've haven't heard of any, but if i find anything i'll post it..
Yes I have used the same Sim. It is not one of the main local providers in Spain (Movistar, Vodafone, Orange) but rather Simyo which is owned by KPN (major Dutch company). Simyo only sells sim cards on the Internet and are extremely cheap.
I have checked with the service provider and it is something they force, in that Data connection will only work when phone is set to Roaming. Internet, and Skype works but Rebtel will not activate as it thinks I am roaming.
I have this same issue.
Just upgraded my SGSII (GT I9100M) from the stock Bell firmware to Android 2.3.6 XXKL1 Firmware. After the upgrade it thinks it's roaming when it isn't.
Hi,
I have my new Nokia Lumia 800
SIM unlocked but TIM branded (Italy)
I am in Bulgaria and the operator doesn't have auto settings for internet (for this model).
I am putting them manually as the people from the mobile operator said, also written in the website.
But there is no connection!
Just Wi-Fi...
Is it because of the TIM? I know there is no logic but...
Also from the mobile operator told me that there must be some setting in the Zune when I connect the device with the computer
Please help me, I realy need my mobile internet
Yes, that approach will not work.
Get your phone on wi-fi, got into the marketplace and open "Nokia Collection". Download "Network Setup". It will set your APN's for both data and mms. Hopefully it understands your carrier and can obtain the settings.
This worked for me, I had the same issue as my phone was set for Three in the UK but I am on o2.
I have TIM version too and it works with all operators here in Serbia. JUst download app suggested and it will work
Thank you guys!
You are awesome.. just like the Lumia
Just one more.. what are the symbols for network (3G, EDGE etc.)
Now my phone have "H" next to the signal bars.
H is short from HDSPA. It is know as 3G+ on some Samsung models and it is the highest speeed you can get
Thanks, I found what are the symbols meaning by the way...
Sorry for the stupid question
hello, now with the new eu rules for data roaming in other member countries i wonder if there's an app out there, that can disable data roaming for some countries automatically?
my provider (3 italy) startet with free data roaming yesterday morning.
as my dad has to go other countries very often because of his job, he's really happy to have data roaming available, but from time to time he's also got to visit svizerland which is not a member country of the eu, therefore there is no free data roaming = he'd need to disable data roaming every time he crosses the border <-- as he's not a smartphone extern he's probably going to forget about it every now and than = he'd loose a lot of money
i cam across this app, but it does not seem to work on newer phones

same problem here, i would like to avoid data roaming in switzerland (non eu-country in the eu )
ok i just found this one, but it does not turn of data connection on andrid 5+, therefore it's kind of useless on newer phones (apart from that it notifies you as soon as you leave one of the approved countries)
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=dk.quan.roamingguard
an app like this one for newer android versions would be more than great
Is it possible to block my phone from auto connecting to a certain mobile operator? Eg. when I'm on a ferry there is an operator (MCP Maritime) which charges insanely high rates which my phone auto connects to.
I have the Oneplus 5 and really just want the phone to automatically connect to any available regular provider with the exception ot the maritime network.
Really appreciate your help as I've searched Google in and out with no joy.
Many thanks
