More likely is, that your vectone mobile is allowed to roam on A1 since this has been the original provider for vectone before they moved to TMO just recently.

OK - perhaps you are right. The phone definitely showed the R icon, indicating that it was roaming away from T-Mobile, and it only showed 2G/Edge when it was roaming. In any case, I found this 2G roaming access to be of no help to me, as it only forced the phone into 2G mode. When I disabled the 2G/GSM mode on the phone it always locked onto T-Mobile 3G and stayed with it unless I had no coverage.
