Switch Network
Function: SWITCH_NETWORK
The SWITCH_NETWORK function manually registers the test device on a named operator network. It turns off automatic operator selection, scans for the available networks and registers on the one named in NETWORK_NAME. If the scan is refused, it tries once more. This function is essential for testing the device's ability to switch between different networks.
Automatic operator selection is restored when the test case ends.
Supported on: Android, Samsung handsets only. Saving a test case that uses it on any other device is refused.
