View Full Version : Went from Sprint to roaming, can anyone help?

I've had my Treo 700p for a week now and the service has been great. 2-3 bars, just got EVDO turned on a few days back.
Until this morning. My phone is now roaming on VZW.
It will not let me complete a call (you hear a VZW message) but I can get calls.
Does anyone think this may have something to with the recent EVDO rollout?
Sprint's maps do not show EVDO in my area (zip code 13021).
For the record, I live about 5 miles south of Auburn, on Rt 38A (next to the lake).
Is data roaming allowed on a SERO plan? I know voice is.

Can you set your roaming to "Sprint Only?"

Can you set your roaming to "Sprint Only?"

I did "home networks only" and now get "No Service."

Can their tower be down?

More than likely your local tower burned out. But at least you can still roam. Oh I hope you have roaming on your plan or you'll get hit pretty hard.

I second the calling of customer service from a landline.

I have Sprint service again, I was leaving for work after my last post.
It was on in the city where I work (5 miles north of my house) the whole time.
I'm getting 2 bars now with Sprint on my Treo 700p.
Now they need to get EVDO fully cranked up, sometimes I have it, sometimes not.
Thanks to all who posted and their help.
