How to hold the EVO in Roaming

[ianmac23]

Hello I am new to Android and coming from a Palm Pre. In Webos I could make the phone stay in Roaming. In my building at work Sprint is very weak and we have a Verizon tower next door. Is there any option on the EVO 3D to make the phone hold the roaming signal?

I think you need root access for this. I could be wrong.

I've used the app roam control in the past. Very good but must be rooted. I'm temp rooted on my 3d but haven't tried it yet.

Roam Control now works without root. It's definitely worth the money

That is so great. I was a happy user of Roam Control on my rooted EVO 4G, and I had no idea it was available for unrooted HTCs now. It's installed and working great on my 3D!

I wish it was the "App of the Day".

I have very crappy signal at my home, and a crappy Airrave to boot...

Who'd ever thunk that $3.99 could fix my problem!!!

Thanks! Best app I have downloaded yet!

What's the difference in putting the phone on 'Automatic' roam settings and this app?

I set mine to roam only, but how do I know it is working?

Where your bars are there should be a character above the small ones

I don't see anything above my signal bars.

I don't see anything above my signal bars.

Then you're not roaming.

I have absolutely no signal in my office but but my friends with Verizon do.
I DL's this app yesterday but returned it because my calls went straight to voicemail. At least before, the caller would get rings before it did that.

Could someone tell me what settings I need to change on the phone to make this app work? I don't want to return this phone but I can't make or receive phone calls. Please help!
