As some of you may or may not know but in Sprint's latest ROM update for the Mogul (RUU_TITAN_SPRINT_WWE_3.56.651.0_RS_3.42.02_SPCS2.0 4_PPST_0619), there is NO ROAMING ONLY option under the Roaming settings. The only options are Sprint Only and Automatic. That is it! It appears Sprint is trying to cut back on all of the Roaming. Well after looking at the programming and the registy, I quickly learned that the Roaming Only option will work if you put the proper registry settings back on. Well, I have those settings for you ...
Before you can do any of this, you will need a Registry Editor. If you are unsure of what a Registry Editor is or have no clue about the registry, you should probably not be attempting this ... LOL
First thing you will need to do is go to ...
\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\OEM\PhoneSetting\NetworkService
After highlighting ...\NetworkService, you will see the list with the first line saying "ItemCount". You will need to highlight this line and go into changing the value. You will want to change the Value Data from 2 to 3. After clicking OK, you should see under Name: ItemCount and Data: 3 (0X000003).
The second thing you need to do is create a New String Value. Once you have done this, you will see Value Name and Value Data. Under Value Name, enter "ItemName3" and under Value Data enter "Roaming". After finishing this, you should now see this entry under Name: ItemName3 and Data: Roaming.
The last thing you need to do is create a New DWord Value. Once you have done this, you will see Value Name, Value Data, and a box that says Base with Binary, Decimal, and Hexidecimal as options. Under Value Name enter "ItemValue3" and under Value Data enter "3". Make sure that under the Base option box that Decimal is checked. After finishing this, you should see another new entry under Name: ItemValue3 and Data: 3 (0X000003).
That is it !!! You will now be able to force Roaming whenever you need to without having to put up with dropped calls when you are between service areas. I hope this helps and if you have any further questions, please PM me. Good luck ...
