Nokia 6630 Network Selection problem

1 replies · 8,699 views · Started 15 February 2006

I've got a 6630 with Three. I've got international roaming but when abroad I can't connect to a local network. I called Three CS who said to check if I can get Network Selection in the Tools/Settings menu. I can't. They said I needed a software flash/flush. I did this at Carphone Warehouse but this has not made a difference. A pal has the same phone on Three and the network selection comes up fine. So is this a software problem or something earthier? Thanks for any help!

I think so 😊
