Can you please post "logcat -b radio" from the network scan?

As seen above, instead of the Plus GSM mobile network for the number 26001 here 
we have PLAY mobile network.

Do you have a possibility to compare it with output from another android phone?
It looks like issue of the network operator as the network seems to simply 
identify itself as Play instead of Plus GSM.
The network name (Play) is coming directly from proprietary Motorola's RIL 
library response, so I don't suppose it's CM7 specific issue...
You can also try to compare it with "logcat -b radio" output from stock 2.2 
firmware when doing network scan. Is there a difference?

Hmm, but it's info from different location and cell, right? (as there is also 
POL-17 listed that was missing before)

I sit at a desk with the same phone. I only change ROM to stock froyo (nandroid 
restore).

Well, then I'm clueless.
The response string array [NetworkInfo PLAY/PLAY/26006/CURRENT, NetworkInfo 
PLAY/PLAY/26001/AVAILABLE, NetworkInfo Era/Era/26002/FORBIDDEN, NetworkInfo 
Orange PL/Orange PL/26003/FORBIDDEN] comes directly from the proprietary closed 
source modem subsystem, (the response is intermediated by 
libril-moto-umts-1.so) which is provided by Motorola, not from CM7 sources.

Do you have any idea what we can do with this problem? Why does the stock Froyo 
is ok, but CM7 is not? Can I safely replace the library from a factory Froyo to 
this version CM7?

Original comment by daniel.k...@gmail.com on 20 Apr 2011 at 6:07

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago

Naturally, the proprietary closed source files used in CM7 come from stock 
Froyo.

I changed the library at this from the original Froyo and nothing has changed. 
I think it was something wrong with the configuration of CM7.
I noticed that there are still quite common errors shown below, when you search 
for available networks :

I think that it is still a problem. Search networks, and all is well, that is, 
shows a network of 260-01 Plus, when I select it, I coluld register. But after 
registering CM7 still shows that it is in PLAY. There is also no icon roaming. 
Below the logs and screen from the search and registration for the Plus.

Is this wikipedia article correct?

On 09.06.2006 PLAY signed a domestic roaming agreement with Plus operator - 
Polkomtel. It allows Play subscribers to access Plus' GSM network as well as 
UMTS network. Roaming is nationwide, free and unlimited. In addition, Play 
subscribers can manually pick Plus GSM network despite presence of Play's 
native network. However, Plus' domestic network cannot be used with Play's 
Mobile Broadband products.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Play_Mobile

If it is correct, then I don't see what is the problem... In such case, the 
indication of roaming would not make sense as there would be no usual roaming 
consequences.

But of course, I'd like to be corrected, if I'm missing something.

Added labels: Version-CM7_0.08

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago

It's not exactly true. In PLAY some products that operate in such a way that 
voice call in roaming network PLUS are standard, but the roaming data 
connection you have to pay. Therefore, you need to know whether you are roaming 
or not.

As I haven't been abroad lately, can anyone confirm whether even the 
international roaming indication is functional at all in current CM7 for 
Milestone?

Daniel: do you have the "National data roaming" option enabled or disabled?

I make more tests and :
- when I disable "National data roaming" and "Dane w roamingu", I see Roaming 
icon, but don't have data access
- when I enable only option "Dane w roamingu", I see roaming icon, and have 
data acces (screen is attach)
- when I enable "National data roaming" option, I don't see roaming icon.

BTW. I modify file com.motorola.android.providers.settings ,add two lines :

Well, then it works as expected.
"National data roaming" option is there exactly for this - to not indicate 
roaming when doing national roaming. It's there for customers of virtual 
operators that do not have their own network.

I don't suppose that the changes you've made have any effect. Do they? Can you 
check it?

Original comment by kabal...@gmail.com on 22 Apr 2011 at 9:21

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago

Hmmm...I thinking about this,but I have some doubts.
Imagine that :
- live near the border of country
- you have phone in PLAY network, with the possibility of roaming call voice to 
PLUS network but no data access, if you use the data you have to pay
- If you select "Data Roaming" it is possible that the network will be switched 
to abroad network and you will have to pay for the data
- If you uncheck the option "Data Roaming" and select "National data roaming' 
you not see if you are in roaming

BTW. Can You add information like on screenshot_2.png when phone is on roaming. 
Than I can see what realy network I use.

If you want to learn more about why the National Data Roaming option is there, 
you can study e.g. this issue: 
http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=3499

Btw., there's still no official solution for MVNO customers in AOSP Android...

How does the screenshot_1.png look when the National Data Roaming is disabled?

I'd like to avoid messing with the logic of SPN and PLMN display.
It's controlled by this code:
https://github.com/CyanogenMod/android_frameworks_base/blob/gingerbread/telephon
y/java/com/android/internal/telephony/gsm/SIMRecords.java#L1353

Can you post the CarrierLabel entries from logcat (main) when you use the 
attached SystemUI.apk? I'm interested what is there when you are connected to 
Plus, and if there is a difference when National Data Roaming is enabled / 
disabled.

"If you want to learn more about why the National Data Roaming option is there,

I read this carefully, and I think that is the same problem in Poland.
National Roaming option is working ok, but no information about this like on 
screenshot_2.png or maybe I thinking about create new icons for signal strength 
with letter NR insead R when National Roaming is occurs.

How does the screenshot_1.png look when the National Data Roaming is disabled?

Uhm, there are no CarrierLabel entries in the log...
Is the SystemUI.apk I attached really in use?

I mean that I wanted to see the log entry (from the previously attached 
SystemUI.apk) like this one:
04-23 10:47:00.444: INFO/CarrierLabel(1807): updateNetworkName showSpn=true 
spn=T-Mobile CZ showPlmn=false plmn=T-Mobile CZ

When you connect to Plus network.

But I guess it will be simply "INFO/CarrierLabel(XXXX): updateNetworkName 
showSpn=true spn=Play showPlmn=false plmn=Plus", am I right?

Hmm, I think so. I move orginal SystemUI.apk to SystemUI.apk.org and adb push 
your SystemUI.apk to /system/app. Then I restart phone.

I use adb logcat -b main, register to Plus wit National roaming enabled and 
disabled and send logs to you.

I try now once time again with logcat -b radio, and I will send you new logs.

@36: I think you shouldn't force displaying PLMN for SPDI networks - it should 
be controlled by SIM card (as referred to TS 51.011) cause some Network 
Operators (eg. Play in Poland) don't want users to know that they are roaming 
nationally and Gingerbread's way is the correct way to handle this: with PLAY 
SIM card you can see no PLMN when logged in to 26006 (home network) or 26001 
(Plus - national roaming) yet you can see PLMN when roaming internationally. 
And personally I think that we should leave this as is and possibly implement 
user-defined overriding of displaying PLMN (by editing spn-conf.xml as seen 
here: http://pastebin.com/wn3vhKAW - it seems that this way works only with 
Samsung Galaxy S).

@Daniel: my suggestion is that you leave "Dane w roamingu" disabled and 
"National data roaming" enabled - this would allow you using your data packets 
with Plus network and would prevent data transfers when roaming internationally.

Very thanks, for comment.
Now I using "Dane w roamingu" disabled and "Nationa data roaming" enabled. In 
Play Poland, if you using stock froyo, you see information about PLAY - Plus.

The "Froyo way" wasn't actually a feature, it was a bug. ;) It was fixed here:

I can see your point I would too prefer to know that I am roaming nationally 
(just out of curiosity) but I can assure you that "Gingerbread" way is correct 
and it's done that way on every other non-Android phone.

Hmmm, I read this and I have to admit that you're right...
Maybe we can add option "Force displaying PLMN for SPDI networks" to CM7, for 
people like me :)?

Thanks for the input.
Yes, I'm aware that by that change I'm actually breaking the standards, and I'm 
not too happy with that.
That's also the reason why I haven't closed this issue yet.
But I also understand the need to be aware of what network the phone is 
connected to, when it can imply different charges.
I actually planned to make it optional from the start. I was just rather busy, 
so take the change introduced in 7.0.1 as only temporary quick hack. The proper 
solution (as an option) will follow.

Hi, I've added a menu option (in CMParts->Interface->Status bar tweaks) to 
choose whether to force PLMN display or not. As I don't really know how to 
submit these changes for review (the change was made to multiple projects - 
I'll have to read how to do this), I'm attaching my .diff file. It is for 
latest CyanogenMod (not 4milestone) tree.

I just noticed that there is an issue with my patch (a result of writing code 
at 4 A.M.) - is forces to show PLMN on HPLMN as well - easy to fix, will use 
solution from #36. I also think that I shouldn't split this feature into 2 
packages, so I'll put that option into Network Settings menu.

I'm also planning to introduce a choice whether to display "R" icon when 
National Data Roaming is enabled.

I am having problems with uploading this patch to CyanogenMod Gerrit (ssh 
doesn't authenticate), so I'm posting my solution here. Confirmed to work on 
HTC Desire and PLAY (26006) SIM card. I left the setting in CMParts, because 
I'd need to modify two projects anyway if wanted to add this to "Network 
settings".
