Other than sprint I didn't know that many other companies actually still charge roaming, and thats most likely just because its a foreign SIM which is drawing a different band. What you can do is hex edit the phone to turn off the triangles, if you talk to the service provider they can tell you if your being charged roaming.

the roaming triangle means nothing billing wise... its your rate plan that determines that... Tmob rate plans are all national... there should be a seem edit that Mikay will post to cover this (he usually does)... but dont worry about roaming charges... the phone is looking for the carriers tower that it was made for
