I've been having some issues roaming lately. Today I went down to the chicago area (from the milwaukee area) and shortly after i crossed the border into illinois my phone would not receive any service. Any ideas here?

Possible that there's no service in that area?
My friend with the same phone as me had service

Dial *228 when you aren't roaming
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA App
Also make sure you have network settings set to automatic A or B. If its on homeonly it wont roam. That happened to me.

Okay I just did the *228. What exactly did that do?

It updates your prl which tells you which towers have preference, if I understand correctly.

Is anyone else getting an orange tint across the bottom of the screen? I'm debating getting another device before my 14 days are up.

have you only noticed it when you are scrolling down to the bottom of a page? (snickers a little bit)
Its a constant feint glow about 1 mm is thickness. And I'm not running Gingerbread.

Same here. All 3 of my replacement phones had it. I think it's part of the lcd bleed issue.

Unfortunately my camera is home, but if you don't recognize it then UT must be a defect.

No. $10 to ship the old one back. Then they credit your acct back the $10.

And the heat issue is a defect as well. Return it if you get it.

Heck no with a phone rep. In person would be even better. If they were as understanding.
Keep a good attitude and remember escilation helps. Its a new phone. Defects are unacceptable, and not the product you wanted nor paid for. So its either a new phone or full refund.
This is not a negotiation nor a request. You are in a contract. They will not try. They will do.
Full refund.
Really. Say that if you have to. Really.

i'm so glad someone else has this issue. my backlight bleed was bad, but the orange band was what was driving me crazy more than anything else.
replacement should be here in another 3 days, hopefully it doesnt have the same issues.

Good stuff man, please let me know if it's gone when you get your new one.
I'm running stock and my GPS is incredibly slow. Using GPS Fix can never get a fix within 15 minutes. Any ideas? Should I just return the phone? I bought it at a tmobile store over a month ago. Would they even accept returns this far out?

Where are you guys at?
Cross streets near you?
Need to see how far away LTE is getting. I'm in Fayette County and don't have any but I'll be watching my phone as I come into town this morning. I'll try and see where it starts.
If there are people in Arlington or North Memphis that have it, then we're looking real good!!

I had that issue on 2.0.2 a few times. I also experienced it on a few other roms but was not really tracking it. I do not seem to be having it on 2.0.3
Are you using the included kernel or a different kernel?
Oh, what radios are you using?
I'm just curious, if a phone is reported lost/stolen can it still be used by someone else? Or is it somehow deactivated?

Once it's on the black list (reported stolen), it's useless.

Yes it can still be "used" but on a network is a different story. If the ESN is reported to the original carrier though, it would be shut-off from authenticating on that network.
