I think I found the problem.
My provider (O2 - DE) has a new agreement with another provider (E-Plus)
and they are sharing the 3G towers. [1]
The net on the O2 towers is called "o2 - de", while the one on the E-Plus
3G tower is called "o2-de+".

When the phone connects to the second one, it goes into "Roaming" (I guess
that it is because it does not recognize that it is the same provider).

Manually selecting the "o2 - de" works around the problem, but just until
my phone loses the connection and get it again (and the second signal is
better a lot of times).

If I understand it correctly this "sharing" is called "National Roaming".
[2]

So, I think that the above procedure to report the bug is no longer valid.
What should I do?

Is there a way to abilitate national roaming on the same provider network
but not on other networks and not the international one?
