Ever since eclair, I've been using the Roam Control app alot on my Epic. There are certain areas that I am in daily that just get spotty/no signal at all. I flash ROMs quite often, and one of the ROMs I flashed in the past killed the Roam Control app. I'm not sure if flashing Froyo was the reason, but I do know that it worked perfectly in the past with this phone.
When I press roam only, it doesn't do anything. It asks for SU permission but the signal bars stay the same. I don't lose signal all together or roam-- this app has no effect on me anymore.
What is the problem here? I am using the latest version of the app (1.5.4) and if it means anything, I'm on ACS' wonderful ROM- 1.1.1.
Does this happen to anyone else, and is there any way to fix it or any other way to force roam?
Thanks!
I had mine break before as it kept telling me to purchase it even though I had already. After numerous attempts of clicking roam, switching devices in settings and trying to connect, uninstalling and reinstalling, and reboots it randomly started working again. Sorry that's not much help but maybe one of those techniques will work for you I wish I knew what exactly fixed but I was doing everything that I don't remember what it finally was, sorry.
I now just use a verizon prl instead so I can get 3g and not just the 1x roam control only allows. Good luck. If I think of anything about exactly what I did I'll let u know.

I checked the auto reboot and when it eventually rebooted, it actually messed up my phone and I got a bunch of FC's
How do you use the Verizon PRL?
Roam control actually works much better for me now the I'm on the ee03 modem
Hmm...theres something wrong on my end then? I tried installing the Roam Control before anything else and it still doesn't work.
Are there any other apps that force roam?
i intsalled roam control and it did nothing. i set everything up and when i manually set it to roam it does nothing. i set it to auto and move to an area i know i get terrible signal and nothing. odd seeing as it has worked for so many.
In my house I get 1 bar on sprint towers, and when I turn on roam control I get 5 on verizons, Ive been using it since February and I believe twice it would kinda wig out and say no signal for about 10 mins or so no matter what I did, I believe it was some kind of auto update or perhaps just resetting itself? Anyways it always came back, the first time was like 10 mins the second was about 5 mins. I know that doesnt explain anything but Its what I have experianced using it. All in all a great app that I use all the time.
I am on the SFR 1.1.1 with EE03 modem and use Roam Control while at work all the time with no problems. I have had the license issue before, but a phone reboot and data connection fixed that.
I would recheck Superuser to see if Roam Control still had permission, also check mobile network settings set to Automatic, and then maybe fix permissions with CWM.
Disclaimer: I am not very developer savvy, so I do not know if these are a waster of time or not.

I wiped all my data and started from fresh, installing Roam Control, making sure that it had SU permission, and made sure that roaming was allowed in the mobile network settings. I went into CWM and fixed my permissions, but it's still the same
Edit: I also updated my PRL but no dough.

I am on my own version of SRF 1.1.0 called RandomRom linked in my signature. I baked in a lot of the mods that are now added into SRF 1.1.0. It uses Genocide to avoid freezing issues, and comes pre-journaled.
Using my Rom and EC05, roam control works great for me every day in my house. I know for a fact that RC can be a fickle app, so maybe give it a try?

In the development section they'd a section on how to manually update your prl. Its pretty good instructions. Just find the prl u want to use. I'm u do ng a 0001. I can't remember where I found it if its not in that thread. I'll look later.
Every few weeks I get rolled back to sprint prl but I just take the 2 to change back. If u need any thing else let me know.

Just be warned, 3G roaming on Verizon may venture into excessive roaming of your Sprint contract and get your account cancelled. No one has a completely clear answer on what excessive is.

I used roam control pretty much non stop for a couple months and have been on this prl for about another two months and no warnings or anything here. I'm in ms and we don't even have 3g where I'm at. The 0001 prl claims to trick your phone into showing sprint also . So that could be why.

If you are using a backup version of Roam Control then it will not work for some reason.. everytime I change to a diffrent ROM and try reinstalling my apps that I backed up.. Roam Control does the samething.. it wont change your signal.. it just does nothing..
this happens no matter how I restore it.. using Titanium Backup, APP Monster or MyBackup Pro.
Roam Control is the only app I have to reinstall from the Market for it to work properly.
Hope this helped!!
Just to be sure, everyone having problems with Roam Control is going into settings and choosing Samsung as their phone model...yeah?
I've had a few problems with roaming on the GB leak, but it's mostly just more of the same weirdness where I randomly have to reset the modem to get a data connection, and Android refuses to 'Never Ask Again', no matter what settings I check.
Otherwise, I've been roaming with Roam Control daily at work. Mind you, I'm not on any custom kernels.
/sometimes if I start Roam Control when I have absolutely no signal, it'll try to confirm my license, fail, and then get really really pissy until I close out of it, get data back, and run it again, at which point it behaves like I just installed it
//Roam Control is fantastic for when Gingerbread's data breaks, even when on Sprint, since you can just go in, tap Automatic, and it'll reset the modem for you without requiring a reboot

I'm using rc1.5.4 and I don't think it works either. I installed it after a day at work which was a bad spot for sprint service but watched my battery drain from 50% in 3 hours with a couple phone calls, emails and texts. Then my battery died. I was not happy that it drained sooo fast. Do any of the earlier versions work? Before 1.4?

Hmm. Whenever I used to use Roam Control in the past, it gave me much much more battery life. (almost double actually)
But now it doesn't work at all.
The developer of Roam Control is here on XDA, shoot him a PM. He's a really helpful kind of guy.

Ok so I bought roam control and it seems as tho it refuses to go into roaming.
I read this faq and it says,
"My phone does not get any signal when in “roam only” mode.
Chances are you have a Samsung phone. Samsung phones have different behavior - when in "roam only", they only roam on the 800mhz frequency band. There are areas in the US that are 1900mhz only, which means that Samsung phones will not get a signal in those areas."
However, when i'm not trying to force roam, it still goes into roaming sometimes but only when i'm not forcing it.
Is there any way I can change something to make it work?
Some one here may have an answer but if the application is 'acting up'/buggy you may have to contact the developer
Did you see this:
"Please send all questions and comments to [email protected]" The developer may be able to help you.
Or this one:
"If you wish to contact us, please send questions and comments to [email protected]. Make sure to include as many details as possible in your email."
Yeah I noticed that but I had assumed that this was something I could get a quicker response from our community. I'll contact him.

I have been using roam control since I got this phione and before on a Samsung Moment.
When I was running GB roms on this phone it worked flawlessly with it set to:
Phone Manufacturer: Samsung
Action after selection: exit app
Since I changed to ICS roms it has been a bit wonky though (same settings). It sometimes takes a minute or two to switch in or out of forced roam. Very infrequently it drops out of the app without doing anything. Make sure you have the roam notification box checked off while troubleshooting so you know what state it is really in. Also maybe try changing the action setting to reboot after selection as that was required for my Moment to work correctly. Since you have just installed it, this is probably not an issue for you but several times after flashing new roms it stopped working and I had to delete/reinstall it after restoring my apps. Just deleting data and cache never fixed it. Even now I "think" it is acting up a little but it is working correctly.
Well I have actually tried it on 3 roms now and its the same result. I've tried the rebooting option but that didn't work either. I first tried on aokp and then on stock fe10 and now on gb el29, none of which will pick up the roaming.

been using an older version of roam control for a while now.. just downloaded cm9a4 last night while using roam control to force roam.. has worked flawless on multiple roms for me.. when i have issues i go into network settings and make sure its set to automatic, and turn the data roaming guards off, then open up rc and set to roam only
Is there a link so I can try an older version? Or could you email me the apk or something? Maybe that's all I need, an older version.

I'm running the newest version of ROAM Control with PRL 11115 and it works flawlessly on both GB and ICS.
The trick, you really need to pay for it. The newest versions hacked and cracked simply do not work right. Sometimes they work for a while then they do not but paid for legit keys work 100% from what I've seen.
Out of respect for Mr Greg I'd rather not say which one older version seems to work 100% even if its pirated but as I said above, the newest one with a legit key will work.
I think a lot of it has to do with the part of the country your in. In the Omaha area...feel free to chime in Omaha-ens, it just won't work. I think it has to do with the frequency issue and the network your trying to roam too.
I'm not looking for a freebie. I did buy it. It just won't work for me, which is why i'm looking for an older version.

In which case if you go to RC's webpage and email Mr. Greg I would assume he can hook you up with what you need.
Yeah, i'm waiting on a response. I trust that we will figure this out.
If you searched any of the other 10 or so threads on this you would see Samsung cannot always roam 3G depending on what spectrum Verizon is using, it has to do with PCS block.
If you roam 1x at all forced it is working.

No, it gets absolutely NO signal of any sort when trying to force roam.

My question is this:
Is there any way to force the phone to roam?
Yesterday, I was at a location where I had virtually no data/voice connectivity but instead of going to roaming the phone kept looking for a 3G signal. At some point though the phone began to go into ROAMING mode and I was able to make a few phone calls and send/receive some text messages.
Soooooo, like my first question: Is there anyway to force the phone to roam if you are in a low/non-existent signal area?
Ok, I did some research and came across this app: http://www.roamctrl.com/purchase/
Anyone have experience with this app? It seems that this is what I need. I would like to hear some user experiences before I drop $4 on it. The app isn't on the market.
Search these forums for Roam Control. I believe there are some issues with certain builds and ICS. Make sure to check the threads. Here is site too. http://www.roamctrl.com/ Be judicious with roaming I've been reading about more people getting axed lately

Yeah, thanks for the info man. That is exactly where my search has led me. I have no intention to abuse the roaming. There are a few Sprint dead zones that I come across on occasion where using this app will really really help me.
Been using Roam Control here sine my Samsung Moment. It's been nothing but awesome FWIW.
Yep it rocks! And yea it's a bit wonky on the ICS builds... seems worse on some than others but can't really nail it down. I find it seems to be most reliable when set to reboot upon changing the setting.

Check your APN setting. Under setting- more setting- mobile network - APN.
What ROM are you on now?
If not call your carrier operator.

I don't have that option, task&ktoonsez aokp jellybean. Had problems on cm10 nightlies and this. This ROM is epic awesome but I can't not have data. I had stock ROM rooted on stock lf9 radio, never un-rooted and updated. Not a single problem for months. Put cm10 on and within the first week, no data. Re flashed, still none. Flashed all 4 radio versions, then lost phone service. Flashed aokp last Monday, good until I woke up this morning. Went to bed last night with 20mbps 4glte connection, phone never moved, woke up with no data. I can get 3g once every 2 hours or so at a bandwidth of .6kbps ( speed test certified).
Try calling your network operator. Or you can reflash stock firmware and see if problem persist.
But CM10 by default has a wrong APN setting (For me) and I just change according to the right one and it is perfect now.
But reflash stock.one and try.

TO ALL!!!! this is a call to action. I too, like many others are experiencing unacceptable data speeds while on 3G and in great reception while using the Galaxy S III. the speeds I should be receiving are 1.5-3 MB/s but instead I am receiving around 128Kb/s in the city and within excellent service. We all have to pay a 'Premium Data Add-On' charges just to own these phones and this is unacceptable. Please write an Email to [email protected], vice president of customer experience at sprint and let him know what you are experiencing. Maybe if enough pissed off customers write, they will finally listen!
I have downloaded and done a clean install of the latest ROM from Team-Venom "Wicked Sensations v2.0" First of all the ROM is so in depth, and runs smoother than any other ROM I have used in the last year. There is only one issue. The only way I can use mobile data is if I switch the mobile network to CDMA, 4G LTE does allow me to send and receive phone calls but no text messages, or any data whatsoever. . I have read all of Team Venom's thread, well most of it anyways, and I cannot find anyone else having this issue. I am aware of the rules of the forums, so I am posting this under the Q/A as not to bog down or step on anyone's toes, in the developers thread.
Is there a fix for the 4G data issue, or is it just my phone? I have tried everything I can think of such as..
Flash stock Kernal
Flashed the latest radios
flashed the latest PRL's (not sure what that would do but I did it anyways)
tried toggling airplane mode on and off.
Since nobody else is having this issue, I am not sure what else to try. also, when I am using LTE, I DO NOT have the 4G icon next to my signal bars, like I do when I am on 3G.
Before you ask, yes, I do in fact live in an area that does have 4G, I am in Kansas City Kansas.
Anyone with an idea or know how I would be grateful.

Thanks for the replies all. I have done the suggested troubleshooting as follows
1: did a fresh install of the ROM (after wiping EVERYTHING first)
2. went through setup of the device (just to verify 4G was still not working, which it was not)
3. went to dialer and input ##486#
4. chose the reset option
5. entered my MSL # and then the phone did a factory reset.
When the phone came back up I had to go through the setup again, and had to turn on wifi to get through it because the data was still not working.
Also if anyone comes accross this and wants to know how to get the MSL # download a terminal emulator from the market and input "getprop ril.MSL"
Or check out this thread - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=28182339
Also while investigating the MSL further I found this possible solution-
"The phone needs to be re-provisioned as follows ##72786# or ##SCRTN# the phone may restart twice, after the restarts, launch a browser and type in your phone number on the prompt."
After following this, when I opened the browser I was not prompted to input anything I was only greeted with a connection error. :crying:
I am still searching for more answers. I am exploring ##DATA# but there is more in here than I am familiar with so I will hold of on this until I know what I am doing.
In the mean time 3G works so I am still able to use my phone just wish I could tether my 4G to my laptop.
Any other ideas are more than welcome.

If you go to ##3282# under view then advance, see if LTE is enabled or disabled.. If it is enabled then I bet that is why you do not get 4G service.. I believe LTE does not have 4G service just 3G.. I have done this and my 4G went to 3G after enableing it.. If you have it disabled you will get 4G service..
That is a good idea but even then you have to wait five min. inbetween lol why couldn't I remember my old login that would be way easier

Well I have finally been able to get 4G data working on v2.0!!!
1. Wipe EVERYTHING
2. Flashed sensations v1.3
3. Reboot phone into recovery
4. Flashed v2.0
5. BEFORE REBOOTING OUT OF RECOVERY, Flash latest sprint radios
6. Reboot phone one last time
This has made 4G data work for me.
Im in the car right now, will try to remember to post a link to the latest radios. And PRL Updates. Those are nice to have too.

This is what I did and it seemed to work. I switched to cdma only then update profile and prl. Then when I switched back to cdma/lte everything seemed to work fine.
