So I drove from Boston to New York today... my BB was switching from 1XEV to 1x to 1X all day long... which is probably why my battery was down 2 bars by 8pm with minimal usage throughout the day... usually I have full battery or just one bar down by midnight... the constant switching between 1x and evdo does drain the battery more. Of course I was driving through fringe areas...so hopefully when I return to Boston my battery life will return to normal.

I do have a problem though... ever since I entered Connecticut...and until now (in NY)... I have a solid triangle roaming indicator next to the 1XEV. WTF? I called CS and they checked my account... didn't see any reason why I'd have a roaming indicator...suggested I try *228, 2, but that didn't get rid of it. I have America's Choice... and Unlimited Data... CS said any roaming charges would be credited back... but that's just a temporary fix. I want the roaming indicator problem fixed period.

Anyone know why I have a roaming indicator? And what I need to do to get back to normal? In the 4 years or so since I've had America's Choice I don't think I've ever gotten a roaming indicator...on any of my phones... and I've travelled across the country.

Help with the roaming indicator! Please!

FYI I followed all the steps in Mark's guide except for the HRT registering. My EVDO and browser worked fine without doing that step, and the tech on the phone said I didn't need to re-register either... so I didn't. Not sure if that could be the culprit... doesn't seem like there's any connection between re-registering and roaming... but... who knows.
