I have an Apple Watch SE first generation, setup as standalone line, via family setup on T mobile Magneta X plan. Our phones have switched successfully to local roaming partner (Vi India), however I’m unable to get Apple Watch to get to work, either phone, text or data. The Watch is on WatchOS 9.1 and has data roaming enabled. Cellular options shows Status as No connection.

Multiple chat sessions with t-mobile rep has not yielded no results yet. They tried adding international data pass, enabling DIGITS, disabling it and putting line back to standalone line so far.

I can see at least 1 bar of signal strength on Watch using explorer Watch face (phones show 3).

Same issue experienced while traveling to Taiwan.  Arrive yesterday and found simple global worked great on the phone (Magenta Max) but my two other Apple Watches with stand-alone plan (which also has simple global) got no cellular connection.
