Hey guys I hope you could provide some guidance to me with my problem. Here's the thing i made a mistake on switching with X carrier which still has a not so stable of a network. Often times my phone goes to roaming even though im still on a network coverage area which in turn causes charges to my account when I send message or call someone and use my data. Now what I do when that happens is (on a samsung phone) go to [Settings>Mobile Networks>Network Operators>Select Automatically] which fixes the problem sometimes. Is there a way to automate this process with tasker so that whenever my phone's signal state goes to roaming it does the thing above^
Im new when it comes to tasker so I dont really have any idea if this could be done so advice and tips are greatly appreaciated.

have posted before-running darkforce(excellent)
however when abroad(sweden,spain most of europe) the phone cannot establish a data connection for either email or internet yet displays all the right signs -the triangle for roaming 3g etc
i am reposting because the last reponse was to try the latest radio 1.18-I have and still the same problem
I am with t-mobile who insist every is set up to work abroad(which it did on the original rom-but that rom was sooo bad)
all network setting are set to auto-it picks up every network going but makes no difference.
can people confirm what roms they use abroad?
what operator is their primary?
thanks
roaming- the same problem
hi!
I have the same problem. I posted a message in here, but still without any response. It is really great problem for someone, who travel all the time and cannot check his e-mails
Basically this is my problem.
On my XDA Guide, on touchflow, there is a weather section and when ever you accidentally go over it, 3G kicks in and updates it and costs me a hefty some every time i do this. There are other times when 3G kicks in. so eventually i turned this off correctly how ever when i was trying to overcome this problem, for some idiotic reason i went to connections, and deleted all of the profiles, i.e the cellular network, the other cellular network (3G & GPRS) etc.. And ever since that i cant make calls or recieve texts. My sim is VIRGIN at the moment. when i try to make a call all i get is 3 beeps. and the call ends. Any ideas on how to fix this PLEASE!!
i remade all the profiles i deleted (i think) so i dont understand why. Perhaps this isnt the reason for it not working? i dont know
First of all, I have searched the forums extensively, and can't find a solution to this, however I may have missed something...
Basically, I am on EE in the U.K which means I can use either the T-Mobile or Orange networks, but my contract was with T-Mobile, so my phone always prefers to use that one. If I go into Network Selection, I see all the operators listed (T-Mobile has a picture of a house next to it) and I can chose Orange. It registers and everything works perfectly, for a few minutes. I assume the phone then realizes that T-Mob is available and jumps straight back to it, although I can go back in and choose Orange again, until it decides to change back.
The problem is basically that the T-Mob network is very busy where I live and although I get a perfect signal, I get ridiculous Internet speeds (despite being on H+), dropped/failed calls and text messages that can take upto 30 minutes to be received. If I am on Orange, I don't have these issues!
Anyone have any solution to this? I see a few threads on the issue in various devices, however none have a solution and most are quite old...

Try changing Search settings to manual @andys5
go to settings, network operators, and search mode change from automatic to manual
btw wrong section
Hi andys5
I am also in the UK with Three/3 & I have a similar issue. I don't receive calls & messages immediately, sometimes if someone messages me I receive the messages from anywhere between 30 minutes to a few hours later which is ridiculous. It is a similar case for calls, someone may try to call me but never get through (nor would I receive a call)-I would only find out hours later when they call again. My network coverage is fine in my area-I think it is the phone. Before the Xperia L I had the Live with Walkman which I never had problems with (no late calls/messages) in the same location with same network. I am sure it is the Xperia L which the problem resides with, may it be the hardware or firmware, I think it is the phone.
I must say that it is a pain at times, it doesn't happen all the time but it does occur often.
Doesn't work...

Thanks for the reply. I have done this, however it doesn't work. It stays on manual, and my chosen network for anything up to a minute, then the settings change back to "Automatic" and it puts me back to the network I don't want to be on.
Very annoying.

Contact your operator for further help i think they might help you ??
Does anyone else have this problem? My SGS5 is pure stock, unrooted. I just got it the other day and am still reading and learning about the root methods so I haven't gone that far yet but I noticed that whenever I am roaming...which is a lot at my house...I can't send or receive text messages. I have played with the roam settings a little but its made no difference.
Thanks for any help given.
Go to roam setting turn roam on and turn off roam protection I'd also turn off connection opt
Edit These options are in more settings under connection in settings
Thats how I have it set...yet it still won't text while in roam.
Ok well I found out why I'm roaming all the time. It seems a tower that I would connect to when I'm at home is down and will be down for at least a month. On the bright side though I figured out a fix for it in case anyone else has this problem...Its simple really. Set up WiFi calling and you can talk and text just find through your home WiFi. The phone behaves as if it had full tower. Hope it helps someone. =)
Hi! New to these boards, so I apologize in advance if I'm posting something that someone recently asked!
Last week at some point, I must have accidentally switched some roaming settings in my phone. While at work, my phone is constantly in roaming. I've never had issues sending or receiving calls and texts in the past, but now nothing works. It says I've lost data connectivity because I've left my home network with data turned off, but my voice and data are both set to "on" under "data roaming" and "roaming guard". As soon as I switch out of roaming, everything works fine. I am extremely frustrated and just want full function of my phone back. Any and all help is greatly appreciated!

Try going to the Sprint Zone app and then updating your profile from that app (Not from the system updates in the Settings)
Let us know what happens...
