[Bug 1499342] Re: National Roaming not working

 

Ok. Here's the output of logcat on my device when scanning for
operators:  http://paste.ubuntu.com/12552919/

When the simyo card is in the MeeGo phone, I do not get a roaming
indication (although IIRC the N9 wouldn't show that even when
international roaming). The indicator text toggles between "simyo" and
"o2 - de".

When the simyo card is in the Ubuntu Phone and logged into o2, I do get
the R icon in the indicator, yes.


Now, here comes some more observations: I've taken my wife's phone
(krillin & simyo SIM) and scanned things there:
http://paste.ubuntu.com/12552935/

Please note that network id 07 is listed here as "simyo" too, even
though it actually is the o2 network. Also system settings shows 2
entries for simyo when I do a manual scan. I do not get a roaming icon
in the indicator on this phone, regardless of what I select in the
settings.

Title:
  National Roaming not working

Status in Canonical System Image:
  New
Status in ofono package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  I'm using a simyo (German E-Plus mvno) and when E-Plus and o2 joined
  forces, they enabled national roaming for 3G data connections
  (https://www.simyo.de/faq/national-roaming-18262.html).

  This however doesn't seem to work at all for me. My device (bq Aquaris
  E 4.5) is stuck in the simyo (E-Plus) network and has never registered
  to the o2 network so far. This is unlike bug 1449990 which claims that
  national roaming would be working if roaming is enabled in the
  settings. I can not confirm that. I have roaming enabled (and
  international roaming works fine), however, national roaming doesn't
  kick in.

  The problem now is, that ever since those operators enabled national
  roaming, the E-Plus network seems to be degrading and now has reached
  a point where I cannot use a mobile data connection inside buildings
  any more.

  Looking at my app download statistics, 25% of all Ubuntu phone users
  seem to be located in Germany. Given that E-Plus has a huge amount of
  mvno's I estimate this issue is affecting a quite large portion of our
  users.
