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

Hi Guys,
Basically my provider is Virgin Uk who is an MVNO. They use TMobiles network. TMobile has an agreement with Orange so that we can use their network when the TMob/Virgin signal is not good. Once I am on the Orange network, the network name changes to 'Virgin' from the normal 'virgin'.
Note, in the notification pull down tray where you can see the current network, when I am on my home network ('virgin'), it shows as 'no service'.
Whilst I am on the 'virgin' network (actually the TMob network), I can use data without any changes to the roaming settings. If I swap over onto the 'Virgin' network (actually the Orange network), Android tells me that I am roaming and thus I have lost data. At this stage I have to change the roaming settings to enable data.
In my CM9 rom, I have an option to enable 'National Data Roaming'. Should this option allow me to use data on the 'Virgin' network (actually the Orange network)?
This doesn't appear to be the case and I have to switch on the main 'Data Roaming' option which would then mean when travelling abroad where I am actually roaming, I would get charged for any data usage.
Does anyone have ideas on how to sort this out so I don't have to keep changing my Roaming options?
Thanks
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.
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....)?
Unable to turn off data after upgraded TL10 to 5.1.1
Dear all,
I need an urgent help from all experts.
I just upgraded my TL10, and after upgraded the both sim card always show 3g and 2g sign on both sim card. even though i disable my data from phone, they are still showing data sign on both sims. I already turned off the data, but i was at oversea yesterday but i keep receiving a warning SMS from telco saying data on roaming will incur high cost. which i forced to disable the simcard instead of the data.
hope anyone has solved this issue please let me know. thanks
That was my issue too when I first upgraded to LP.
Usually, when you turn on mobile data, you will see 3g, 4g, etc. on your status bar. Anyway, what I did was I went to Settings->More(Wireless and networks)->Mobile Network
Data enabled OFF
Mobile data always on OFF
Data roaming:
Data roaming OFF
Receive MMS messages while roaming OFF
You will still see the 3g/4g sign but you won't be using any mobile data unless you turn it on.
