[Bug 1323837] Re: Sim toolkit is not available on UT

 

As talked with Tony.
 I want to reiterate that using my carrier when i go abroad my phone becomes useless as i need to enable a roaming mode via the sim toolkit and then i can connect to the gsm network. 
I do not know how many carriers follow this principle of roaming allowance via sim toolkit.
This is the status i get for my operator ./list-operator
[ /ril_0/operator/23430 ]
        MobileCountryCode = 234
        Status = forbidden
        MobileNetworkCode = 30
        Name = Vectone 
        Technologies = gsm

Title:
  Sim toolkit is not available on UT

Bug description:
  E.g. of SIm toolkit is http://support.vodafone.com.au/articles/FAQ
  /SIM-Toolkit

  While a lot of those addons are completely crap and useless, the SIm
  toolkit is sometimes used by some phone provider to set your sim card
  to roaming mode when you are abroad which makes it a must have.

  For the moment i need to borrow a second phone put my sim card in it,
  go to the Sim-toolkit, enable my sim card for roaming and put the sim
  card back in my UT to get my phone working while i am abroad. I need
  to do the same when i go back home.
