I couldn't find this anywhere on the internet or in the forums so I'll start a new thread. I noticed this now a couple of times that at certain times (when i'm at home ironically) where I usually see my carrier's name it will simply say "home service". I thought this could be something that has to do with my carrier, but I recently changed carriers and it still shows up. Had it on my old LG Optimus 7 and now on my HTC HD7. Anyone else seen this before?

well...who is your carrier?

I've seen it a few times on my T-mobile HD7 but only when switching towers. It went away after a few seconds.

I've seen it on my unlocked Lumia 900 with Bell, it goes away quick and doesn't seem to effect anything.

I was on Sunrise when I lived in Switzerland, moved to Singapore and have SingTel now.

I just noticed it today when I booted my phone. It said "Home Service" for about 10 seconds before it changed to AT&T. Thought it might be searching for a signal.

just curious, have any of you seen this or something similar on an other OS? WP7 was my first smartphone, so can't really compare :)

most likely the ROM version you have doesn't have that carrier in the database so it is defaulting to Home Service.

every time I boot it seems to take ages to get a signal again on my 920, sometimes i need to reeboot to get it to work. the home service appears after every boot and it doesn´t seem to go away without booting every time either... Called my service provider and they had no idea what i was talking about so went on nokia livechat customer service and thay had no idea either. so, at least I´ve informed someone about the problem but no one seems to have a clue nor a way to fix it. (sorry about the english, not my mothertongue)

oh no on the contrary, my carrier does usually show, it's just every now and then that "Home Service" shows up. But it doesn't go away after a couple of seconds as others described in this thread, i've seen it stick there for a couple of minutes, even managed to make phone calls or text. I mean it is not a problem or anything, I was just curious.

I have same issue. I have unlock Canadian Rogers Lumia 920, it is a pain to get a signal to lock onto the phone, I usually have to reboot phone once.
