Ok. This is interesting: I've put the card in my old MeeGo based phone and here's what happens:
I don't yet know if automatic roaming works as I would probably need to walk around out side and I haven't done that yet. However, going to system settings -> cellular networks I get all 4 of the above listed. Clicking on "o2 - de" makes it switch to the o2 network successfully. The indicator starts toggling between "simyo" and "o2 - de". If I click for example on "Vodafone.de" I do get a permission denied popup. So the "forbidden" status in our scan-for-operators seems to be the issue. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Phonedations bugs, which is subscribed to ofono in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1499342 Title: National Roaming not working Status in Canonical System Image: New Status in ofono package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: I'm using a simyo (German E-Plus mvno) and when E-Plus and o2 joined forces, they enabled national roaming for 3G data connections (https://www.simyo.de/faq/national-roaming-18262.html). This however doesn't seem to work at all for me. My device (bq Aquaris E 4.5) is stuck in the simyo (E-Plus) network and has never registered to the o2 network so far. This is unlike bug 1449990 which claims that national roaming would be working if roaming is enabled in the settings. I can not confirm that. I have roaming enabled (and international roaming works fine), however, national roaming doesn't kick in. The problem now is, that ever since those operators enabled national roaming, the E-Plus network seems to be degrading and now has reached a point where I cannot use a mobile data connection inside buildings any more. Looking at my app download statistics, 25% of all Ubuntu phone users seem to be located in Germany. Given that E-Plus has a huge amount of mvno's I estimate this issue is affecting a quite large portion of our users.
