On my Samsung Galaxy Nexus i9250 the STK only showed after setting a PIN for the SIM card. Although I doubt it, maybe thatīs a problem with other handsets as well?

The STK on my Nexus is shown after I activate and de-activate the airplane mode. After that I can see the STK menu with one option: "toggle". When I click on toggle it seems to load the next menu for a nano-second, but then I'm prompted to the same menu with the same option "toggle"...

Just so you folk with no STK on your expensive phones know: It does not show up on my cheap phone either. A BLU tri-SIM I got for $27.

Bear in mind that the menu can show up in strange places. On my Sony Ericsson Z750a (non-smartphone), it shows up under the entertainment menu.

Yes it can. I just checked ALL the obscure menus to double check.
No luck. One would think this kind of thing would get solved over the years.
But no.

Thanks for that. On my old Sony Ericsson K600i (from 2006), it likewise shows up under the entertainment menu (with the icon of a games console controller).

Default Phone always indicates roaming - 14-06-2013, 12:10

I have a fairly basic Samsung GT-E1190 mobile which, even when in the UK, permanently displays the roaming symbol on the screen.

Even if I enter the Toggle menu and select "Manual > UK" it still displays the roaming symbol.

I called ToggleMobile and they said to just leave it in Automatic and it would work correctly.

My question is how do I know whether it has selected the local UK number or if it is actually roaming and going to create excessive call charges?

Make a short test call. If they charge too much call Toggle and complain and figure out the issue. Get them to refund any overage. This solves the issue sooner rather than later.
