update:
Sorry, I was wrong, I can access internet with roaming data, even with the "national data roaming" option OFF.
I just can't access any service of google
F the GFW!
It followed me to USA -_-b
--------------------------------------------------------
I am a Chinese and traveling in Fremont, CA, USA
I have national roaming service from my carrier, China Mobile
I can send and receive text message, voice talk does not work some times, and works in other time
and I can't access internet with mobile signal
when I try to set "National Data Roaming" option on, it looks "on", I can see some small data transfer on my status bar at this point
and each time I leave the setting page of that option, and enter the page once again, the option is OFF,
tried many times, just can't turn it on
I can see that I am connected to AT&T
I also tried switching to T-mobile, but still can't turn that option on, and still no internet
is this a bug of ROM, or there's other possibility(Carriers....)?

a few things first.
1. I have the internet access block on AT&T's end.
2. I live in a area that is mostly edge only, but work in areas with 3g.
3. As far as I can tell, I have nothing that use GPRS turned on. (weather data is not set to auto update, no e-mail services, AGPS is disabled)
when I end a call in a edge network area, or restart my phone, I get the following error message
"There is a problem connecting to the GPRS service in you registered home network"
I do not get this error when I am in a 3g service area.
Any suggestions?
On a recent trip to Germany I discovered that I cannot data roam.
My handset is a dev unlocked (upto date) HTC Pro 7 with a T-Mobile UK SIM.
On a arriving in Germany I rebooted my phone, selected the T_Mobile DE network and turned on data roaming.
Once connected I fired up internet explorer, it tried to redirect me to the t-mobile portal, where you are supposed to be presented with the option to purchase international access.
After a while it just timed out with a message saying that it could not connect and suggesting that i turn on data roaming.
I double checked the settings and rebooted, still no access. This time however it wasn't even trying to auto redirect. Selecting the url from history still resulted in the same error page.
Thinking that it might be a cache problem, I deleted the cache. Still nothing. Selecting other networks didn't help either.
I rang T_mobile, they checked for network issues but could not recommend anything other than wiping the handset. I was not willing to do this given that i could not be assured that I would have the necessary internet access to restore my data...
Has anyone else had problems roaming with T_mobile on WP7.5?
Tnx
here's the issue: when I'm not connected to home network, wifi won't transmit/receive data. I have /!\ sign in the taskbar with explanation "data disconnected because your phone is in roaming network". No matter what I do, data will not work over wifi. The same wifi AP works perfectly when in home network... anyone have this problem? any clue how to solve it?
Try enabling data roaming. Setting>Wireless Networks>Mobile Network Settings
Check "Data Roaming" Connect to data services when roaming
Having a similar issue. I'm about 300 miles from home (Chicago) in Door County WI. Weak Edge signal here. Data works over WiFi, but not over Edge. I continually get a notification saying "You have lost data connectivity because you left your home network with data roaming disabled". I now have it enabled, but the message sounds like I am SOL because I should have made the change before leaving.
To clarify, I enabled roaming 1-1/2 days ago, restarted several times and confirmed the roaming box is still enabled. But I continue to get the lost data notification.
Are you kidding me ATT? Is there no way to fix this without returning home?
I have a friend who has this phone. The problem is I inputted the data setting for their service provider and it worked for a while, now though it doesn't work. Enabling or disabling the data settings doesn't work and on checking the Testing Menu the phone has not GPRS service and the Roaming shows Roaming also it shows that it has 3g. The 3g symbol shows up in the notification area yet it wont connect however Wifi works and Calling and Sms work as well.
I would factory reset the phone but my friend doesn't want to do that. Is there anyway to fix this.
I have Mediapad X2 701 B003
The data roaming doesn't work. If I use data locally - everything works, but if I go abroad - then not. I spoke with my mobile provider - they said that my device is not supported for data roaming. If I use the same SIM on a different device - then data roaming works. This shows the problem is with my X2
If I go to Settings>More>Mobile network:
..I can't get inside that menu, nothing happens when I click on it
..my mobile operator symbol disappears for a second, and I get the following message in the notification area:
"Data roaming
You have lost data connectivity because you left your home network with data roaming turned off"
Is there any way to enable data roaming on this device?
Thank you for your help
