I am a Cellular One dealer in Michigan. I have been trying a 6085 for a couple of days and I have one major problem. The phone will not handoff a call. If I start on the cellular one network and drive into a roaming network the call has to either be dropped or hung up to pick up the roaming signal. If I start in a roaming area and drive into a cellular one area with full signal the call will not handoff. You have to hang and lose signal to pick up the other tower. This has happened in 5 different areas and not with other phones that I have used (6126,razr). Just wondering if anybody knows of any settings that can be changed or if the phone is programmed this way?

I guess it was not a problem with the phone it is a handoff issue, looks like there is no handoff agreement in the surrounding 5 counties. We put a Razr in the same situation and it would not handoff the call either. Can't imagine why we have so many complaints about dropped calls and why our deactivation rate is 1 out of every 5 phones sold.
