[Bug 1470835] Re: Roaming can not be turned off

 

@Eduard

There is no setting to "disable roaming", there's only a setting to
disable "data roaming".

Regarding the list of carriers with the same name, this is a bug in
Ubuntu System Settings.  I've added a task for them to review.  There
are additional carrier properties that could be displayed such as
technologies, or possibly Mobile Network Codes.  If it's the latter, we
probably shouldn't be displaying more than one entry for the carrier.

My guess is that this is an instance of the multiple networks being
present for the same carrier.  When you select the one that doesn't
roam, the modem switches you automatically to the network with better
signal.

Regarding mobile data not working at all, you'll need to provide more
details for us to continue...  Please provide the device and image
details via the command 'system-image-cli -i' on the phone.   Also,
please provide the output from the following scripts ( run on the phone
):

/usr/share/ofono/scripts/list-modems

/usr/share/ofono/scripts/list-contexts

Title:
  Roaming can not be turned off

Status in ofono package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete
Status in ubuntu-system-settings package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  the phone will go to roaming mode even through roaming is deactivated.
  This might be connected to "national roaming" between o2 and eplus in
  germany.

  - I expect the phone to not roam if roaming is disabled but is does.
  - If I try to manually select the native carrier, I get a list the possible networks BUT: all entries have the same name.
  - If I select the native carrier the roaming symbol disappears and the phone will use this network for some minutes, but then it goes back to roam in the other network!
  - mobile data does not work in the roaming network indifferent if roaming data option is enabled or disabled.

  
  wish:
  -> a possibility to totally turn  of roaming
