No network in US but works fine in Canada

Hi guys,
I'm new to the forum. I've tried searching for some answers but can't seem to find how to resolve the problem. I'm quite new to using PPCs so let me know if there's any information that you guys need.
So my phone works fine in Canada using Rogers... but everytime I go to US, I cannot detect a network for my phone and there's a "!" at the top. I tried searching for a network and it says "no network found" or sometimes it tries to register and then it fails in the end. In US, my phone automatically shuts off... I have no idea how this happens but everytime I go to look at my phone after leaving Canada, it's off. So when I go to turn it back on, there's no phone signal. I have no idea what to do as I'm not very familiar with PPCs.
Thanks for the help!

Which phone are you trying to use? Guessing Touch Pro?
Is international roaming or data roaming added to your account with Rogers?

Hey I have the HTC Touch Pro... yeah I've used this sim with my eten m700 before and it works fine. It just always seem to be searching for a network then it can't find any.
Thanks!!!

are you a prepaid customer? if so, Rogers doesnt allow roaming outside of canada.

Hey there... Just figured I'd pipe in here...
I am still using a TyTN (shopping for a Touch Pro today), and although I was able to always use my phone in the states, since my last firmware upgrade (WM6.1, new radio stack)....
....I can't get any service when I cross the border.
SOMETIMES I'll get 10 minutes of service over the course of an entire day. Very strange.
It is obviously firmware-related... Good luck with your phone...!

Thanks for all the help guys...
Nope I'm not a prepaid customer... should I be upgrading something on my phone to see if it works? Sorry... really don't know much about PPCs here!

just out of curiousty, have you called Rogers to ask for an updated OTA to be pushed to your SIM?

I've contacted Rogers and they said it has nothing to do with them... it's my phone! Should I contact them for the OTA? I'm sorry to be so noobie but... what does OTA do?
Thanks again!

Anyone help please!!!

Maybe the phone is carrier locked, thats why you get no network?
You don't need a sim card to use wifi, there probably something wrong with your wifi/network setup (i.e. static ip/automatic).

how do you get the carrier unlocked i know the phone itself is unlocked

The information you provide is to little.
Does it ask you for the carrier pin code?
Is flight mode turned on?

no it doesnt ask for a pin it just has an X over the signal bars

Does the sim work with other phones?
Did you change something or is the phone all stock?
I'm out of ideas for now.

yes my wife has an iphone and it works in hers maybe im not running the correct version of android on my phone im not sure what version i need to use i just downloaded on and it loaded up and no i never tried to turn airplane mode off ill try that and see if it works thanks man

i just looked airplane mode is turned off and another thing with the wifi it works when my phone is booted in winmo

if it helps i have version 2.2.1 android

Data won't work on Bell unlocked version for AT&T?

Hello, I bought an unlocked version of the sensation originally from bell to use on AT&T. I had an iPhone 4 which had a mini sim and went to AT&T to switch it out, they gave me a normal sim but the data didn't work. I went there today to ask them about it and they tried to manually put in the APN settings, but had no luck. Does anyone know what the problem may be? Thanks in advance.

Do you guys think this is AT&T's problem? Could it be a problem with the sim change because I got text on the new phone saying"thank you for upgrading your phone" could it have taken away the data?

Just call them and check. You should be able to add the unlimited non smartphone data for $15 and still get the same 3g speeds. Tell them you switched to a dumb phone and give the sensation imei if they ask. Their system won't be able to recognize that you are using a smartphone.
If you need apn settings let me know, the default wap.cingular should work fine.

First of all i am certainly no expert but this might help. From the way i understand it the sim is for LTE and you would have voice and 3G if no sim existed. When you unlocked it
you allowed the phone to go international. How ever if the sim card that is in the phone is a US sim it will not work out side US. Since you said that you are in Venezuela right now
and did not say where you purchased the phone can i assume that you might have a US sim in it. That being said pull the sim out and see if the phone will now give you 3G.
If it does then get a new sim from where you are.

it wouldnt be cdma at all, just gsm, and your data issue is likely all due to the APN settings. Sounds like youre international unlocked, which is good, but your apn settings are likely messed up. I see that you are rooted, but are you on the stock ROM?

still no solution for DATA on gsm device
