Here we go. I will try and explain this.....

My phone works great at home and around town. Always has the G icon next to the signal bars.

When I go to work it works great for about 5 minutes. Then the G Switches to a E icon and the phone will no make or receive calls or text or anything.

Weird thing is it still shows good signal, just wont do anything. If I shut the phone off and turn it back on, the G will be back and it will work fine. Then a couple minutes later it will switch to a E and quits again.

Now, im pretty sure im not in a area with Edge access, and connect on the 850 band. Im pretty sure im in a partner network of att, but not roaming

Any idea WTF is going on or if I can fix it.

Thanks
Jeremy

Since your problems involve your location, it would be really helpful if you tell us where you are.

Would also be worth looking at what version your Radio ROM is, http://wiki.xda-developers.com/inde...ractedRadioRoms now newer doesn't always mean better. If you do choose to upgrade your Radio, read the associated threads in the link to see if people are having any problems. 1.47 appears to be one of the most stable.

I am in Summersville, WV.

and I have tried the 4 radio versions so far this week. 1.50 right seem takes about 10 minutes to switch. Thats the best result I have seen so far.

It almost seems like i am hitting a edge nework somewhere that will let me on the network, but not actually use it

Try calling AT&T customer support and see if they can figure it out. It seems like one time I had this issue when I was roaming, and they sent out an update that updated the "roaming tables" as the woman put it, I remember. However, I do understand that you're not roaming and it's a partner network. It might work.
