Hi all, somebody knows how to enable the phone option "roaming assistant" on keyone? This option should enable the primary country code prefix when i'm in a foreign country for number without international prefix. this option is present on iphone and samsung s6, i can't see on K1

Hi,
as far as I know, Windows Mobile for Smartphone supports the "Alternate Line Service", a feature allowing one to have two phone numbers on one contract and switch between these numbers. The necessary menus for this service are only visible if the service has been activated in the CSP of the simcard.
However, eplus (Germany) offers this service, but does not activate the simcard. Therefore it is necessary to activate the menus manually, which could be done on e.g. Nokia phones by so called CSP-override.
I wonder if it is possible to activate these menus in windows smartphone as well, e.g. by a registry hack?
Thanks,
Chris
Hi All,
how to deactivate international call barring. I tried to deactivate it in HTC hero. But it asks a password. I asked my network operator O2 (Germany). They said, that the password is set by HTC. But I checked the HTC manual and googled, I have not the password yet.
Does anybody know this password?
Best regards from Munich
BS. theres no such password set by HTC, so it must be o2.
No bar on making international calls on my Uk Hero either. And at what Orange charge me for them I am sure they want me to make as many as I can
Or do you mean roamimg, i.e. using the phone when abroad? If so then often networks block that.
What steps did you take to try to activate international calling, because I have never even seen an option on my phone for doing that

Is the "outgoing international" box got a green tick against it? If not then the outgoing international calls are NOT called barred. On mine the ones above headed "all outgoing" and the one below headed "all incoming" are the same - i.e. with no green tick in the box and "disable" underneath. So on mine there are no bars.
But when I click on it it asks me to provide a password so that I can set up call barring, not so that I can get rid of it.
If any of the boxes have a green tick and you did not put it there then somebody has probably barred the calls and put their own password in. Since this is something that the user can do I do not think it will be HTC who will have done it
if it asks for a password, this is usually limited by the PIN2 on the SIM. This is set by the network and not by HTC.
If this is what you have got, with the ticks and everything, ask the network for the PIN2 of your SIM. They should be able to provide it as most networks set it to a default value, just as they do the standard PIN.
if you can not work around it..
You can look at calling cards.. which will save you money in the long run.
The calls are considered local calls on Calling cards.
just an idea....
good luck
Guys
I am wondering if anyone knows if Samsung has MCC/MNC whitelist in these phones limiting to these networks only (Like Apple do)? I have the issue where we are building a private LTE network and it seems that this phone does not want to accept our MCC.MNC. I have the international version so it's definitely not network locked and i have tried a few of the main operator SIM cards and it works. I have read all the other related thread on the subject but found no answers.
So does anyone know if Samsung is doing this and is there a way to change this list in the phone if it exists?
I know I'm breaking the cardinal rule of posting in the wrong forum but many of you have been such a great help with my Note 3 and are knowledgeable on Samsung products in general, I thought I would cross post. With the Note 3, you can access the "Regional Carrier" settings using the following code:
*#272*[IMEI]# (that is *#272*(your IMEI number)#)
When this menu is accessed, it shows all the carriers (using 3 letter code) which the phone can be set to. Assuming your device is unlocked and the inserted SIM is from the carrier you're switching to, upon reboot, the phone is provisioned for that specific carrier (APN settings, carrier specific apps, network settings etc...).
This is a great feature but I'm wondering how you access this menu on the Samsung Galaxy S4 device. The model I'm using is the M919V model from WIND Mobile (Canadian variant).
Any help would be appreciated. Thank you!

Unlike the Note 3, the CSC (Consumer Software Customization) otherwise known as the Regional Carrier menu is a hidden menu within the Samsung Device model lineup. This menu will show a listing of scripts in the phone, depicted by a 3 letter code and specific to the carriers which can be preloaded on your device. If your device is unlocked and you wish to use it with one of the specified carriers, you can insert your carrier specific SIM, access this menu and "INSTALL" the specific configured script for that carrier. The question is always asked... "What is the benefit?".
Answer: With smartphones, they are mini computers and not just your typical "telephone". As such, you have multiple settings which vary among carriers. As such, by configuring your device to be carrier specific, it will modify specific settings which are proprietary to that specific carrier. As an example, it will modify the APN details, update your network settings to reflect access to specific modems such as 3G, 4G, HSPA+ and LTE and will also brand the device with specific apps which have been preloaded and configured for that specific carrier such as a "My Account" app. These are just some of the things to name a few which implementation of the proper CSC settings will provide.
Samsung realized that tech savvy people have figured out how to access these menus and this has resulted in fixes implemented in OTA updates to hinder people from being able to do this. As such, you cannot use the typical dialpad entry to gain access to the menu but do have the ability through ROOTING your device. Unfortunately, a ROOT will most likely "void" your warranty so it's at the discretion of the "end user" whether or not the warranty is important.
Thank you to all who assisted and happy trails!

I have unlocked my US Cellular SM-N900R4 on Lilipop, and am now trying to get it working on T-mobile. After the local USC store unlocked it, I added an APN editor from the Playstore, and now have the data working for the LTE connection. The problem that i am having is that it gives a 'no Sim or Sim Error' when trying to place calls, probably due to the network setting not allowing me to select GSM / LTE network option. The only 2 options for network selection LET / CDMA or CDMA.
The following thread was for unlocking a Sprint G2 for Tmobile, but gave some good info but the apps just wornt work on my Note 3 on lilipop.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2729370
The radio switcher app crashes, as well as the other ones that i saw on the PlayStore, so i cant select a GSM option
I was able to install an APN app to get the data working, so now i just need to get the voice / calls working. I was able to install the Rom Toolbox Lite app from the store, but there is no
ro.carrier=???
ro.build.target_operator=???
available from the build properties. Instead there are CDMA operator values for US Cellular and the 310??? value for US Celllar. Should i change this value to 'None'? IF so, what is the decimal value for the 'None' carrier option?
Can anyone give me some suggestions? are these apps specific to the Sprint G2 or to the android version? Is there a custom rom that might enable these settings?
Thanks in advance for any assistance or re-direction to information on the subject.
Suggestion would be to use the Sprint forums .
