Hi there,

Is there any known issue with data roaming in Harare, Zimbabwe ?

I’m trying to manually select Telecel but having no luck joining…

Cheers

Try connecting to another carrier in ZW and what is the rejection message displayed on the handset?

I left it on automatic for a few hours and it wouldn't connect to any network. Then try manually connecting to TELECEL with is the recommended network on the 2 Degrees website.

And all the obvious stuff like restarting the phone etc.. Im in the capital Harare

Try manually to select different networks but try 3 to 4 times incase of roaming steering

Carrier forces to get the handset onto the preferred network when handset is on automatic network selection

Sounds like a roaming fault
