Hello, Is it in any way possible to force roam into another gsm network like TMOBILE when att towers are in the area? I want to test a couple of things which involve force roaming to tmobiles network. Is it possible through seam editing something? I have a Motorola Razr V3 Thanks.

I don't understand how that link is relevant. I have att service, and I want to force roam into tmobiles or another network.

oops my bad. when you get down to the step "Network Setup". select "available networks" instead.it should be academic after that

When I choose tmobile from that network and I hit register, it tries registering it, and then quickly switches back to AT&T.

that would be your sim programming at work. its switching you back to ATT because that network is available. there used to be a time when you could. but no more. this is to prevent excessive off network roaming. a cost cutting measure by ATT and presumably other carriers as well.,.when you roam to a different network it costs your carrier money to do so. but not you.so if the carrier can cut costs they will.
