Nevermind I had a small brain fart. Guess I wanted to see how stupid I could be all at once
[Hero CDMA General] b4u2:
I find it odd that the Verizon 52341 doesn't work for me. Cedar Rapids should be heavy Verizon and Sprint.
[Hero CDMA General] Bierce22:
verizon pushed out another one a couple days ago 52363 so that could be why the 52341 prl isnt working.
[Hero CDMA General] b4u2:
Anyone snag that one yet?

I am using QPST to install the PRL's. Should I do anything else after the phone restarts? Like a profile update, or am I good to go after installing?
[Hero CDMA General] Bierce22:
With verizon and alltel u don't need to do a profile update
[Hero CDMA General] oostah:
i have the droid 3 now and im on verizon. im tying to see how to pull the prl,s

if i can,t i will look for it.
[Hero CDMA General] dtr145r:
what would be a good way to install a prl on a lg optimus s?##775# doesnt work and i believe qpst is for htc phones, at least every post i saw it was for htc..

let me know.

thanks
[Hero CDMA General] Bierce22:
If your phone has a dial up mode than qpst should recognise it
[Hero CDMA General] oostah:
true it should. and its hard to get in the d3 for prl pull. so im going to root and see what i get.
[Hero CDMA General] Bierce22:
yea on my continuum it dosnt have diag mode but it does have dial up mode witch is pretty much the same thing except it can be found in the phones settings instead of the dialer however the drawback is the rom im using dosnt have it in settings so i still have to nand back to my stock rom everytime i want to load dfs tools. also you could try kyoukos method on diag mode for cm7 and aosp roms i have a link in my sig for the guide.
[Hero CDMA General] dtr145r:
i got it. i installed the lg drivers and qpst worked..

qpst is a pretty nice tool.

i took a look at the prl editor

id love to learn how to edit a prl.
[Hero CDMA General] Ken C:
Just so ya'll know. I had been running the 01337 prl ran like a champ. sometime just before midnight last night I lost 3g. Phone said couldn't connect because service was unavailable. Changed to I believe use sprint mod prl and got data back. Just figured I'd put it out there for the next person

Ya'll stay cool

Sprint Service on Verizon Phone

I have a Verizon Droid Inc, I am in a more of a small town area. Verizon does not work great for me at all! I get 3g with avg 57k down. And maybe 2 bars avg.

I tried 52341, 52699, vzwmod, with no real results. Verizon does not come in well.

Sprint seems to get best coverage, I get full bars with verizonsprint prl. The problem is it seems to keep me at 1x. Wont let me roam 3g on sprint.

Does anyone know a prl they can recommend or what I can do

Thanks

11115
[Hero CDMA General] norcalempire:
11115 works great full signal! The problem is 3g comes on for a few seconds. Then the signal meter goes empty. Then back full with 1x. Stays on 1x with the occasional switch back to 3g and back again. Any Ideas
[Hero CDMA General] Bierce22:
try switching roaming mode to auttomatic
[Hero CDMA General] Ken C:
Curious about something. I had noticed a thread (can't place where ATM) that had talked about rolling back the pri to 1.7 and that it helped battery life and signal strength. Granted it was on older thread. But is it still an option with the newer radios? And if so would you also change the NV version to match? I never was sure what the pri and the NV did, just that when you update the radios that was updated as well.

Thanks guys if it wasn't for y'all my evo would be an overpriced paperweight
[Hero CDMA General] b4u2:
Where can I get PRL 11115?
[Hero CDMA General] waqasr:
Please look at the OP/First post and you will find the link for all

PRLs.
[Hero CDMA General] b4u2:
Really? Did you find it there?
[Hero CDMA General] b4u2:
Sprint finally admits there is a problem in our area with 3g. They claim three weeks to fix it and that it will get worse before it gets better. They have to shut down towers to implement fixes. I have lost data completely many times today so MAYBE they are actually working on it.

So I need a PRL that doesn't use Sprint LOL
[Hero CDMA General] Bierce22:
if its only for a couple of weeks and u dont go overkill on your data usage i would try verizons 52341 prl its probably your best option. Verizon did push a newer prl but i can not for the life for me figure out how to extract it from my continuum dfs tools recognizes my phone but it will not read the prl no matter what i do.
[Hero CDMA General] Mumnoch:
I recently rooted and flashed my Heroc phone due to wanting a wi-fi tether for my nook and my network connection became garbage with PRL 60681, I am currently stationed @ Cannon AFB NM, Sprint is my carrier and Sprint towers seem to be the main type here...so my question is what PRL would be good for me here? Thanks for your help!
[Hero CDMA General] Bierce22:
most sprint ones are about the same u could try one of the hybrid sprint prls or try sprints 01120 corporate prl and see if that helps
[Hero CDMA General] BigMosley:
Hey I'm currently running shooter 2.3 with the EVO 4G on Sprint and I've ran so many different PRLs I can't even count and the same result. I always get .12 mbps up and down which Blows ****. Also in the toolbar it saye 1x and not 3g so that may be the problem. I live 6 miles outside of Washington dc. How can you help me bro? Thanks alot.
[Hero CDMA General] dtr145r:
are you sure you are actually running different prl's?

0001.prl will pretty much only allow you on 3g..
[Hero CDMA General] BigMosley:
Yea I think I'm doing it right. I download the PRL zip and put it on the root of my SD card. Then go to phone and do ##775# and type in my code and load the zip file in from the SD card and run it then press ok then manually restart my phone and same result every time. Are those steps correct or am I supposed to extract the zip file then load the PRL?
[Hero CDMA General] dtr145r:
you shouldnt need to manually reboot.

after you select the prl file click ok then click menu and 'commit changes'

to verify that your prl has been changed click menu>settings>about phone>software information

at the very bottom it will say the prl version you are on.
[Hero CDMA General] BigMosley:
Yea it doesn't automatically reboot like it says its going to after 10 seconds. So your saying I don't need to reboot at all? Just run the PRL and go on with it?

---------- Post added at 11:00 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:54 PM ----------

Iif I don't manually reboot it keeps flashing "commit successful" over and over again and all my bars and roaming triangle are dashed out.

---------- Post added at 11:06 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:00 PM ----------

It says my PRL version is 00772 and regardless of what I run it doesn't change. Getting depressed lol.
[Hero CDMA General] dtr145r:
ok if the commit was successful go verify that it changed

for the evo its

menu, settings, about phone, software information

yours will be in the same general area

also go into

menu, settings, wireless and networks, mobile networks.

make sure these are checked.

[Hero CDMA General] Mumnoch:
thanks for the reply Bierce22, I'll try the sprint corporate and hope it helps, now to figure out how to get it onto my gingerbread 1.2.1 ROM! Just tried the ##775# and that gave me a incorrect number dialed error, how do I figure out the correct number to dial to get to the 01120 corporate version PRL?
[Hero CDMA General] BigMosley:
Everything you said to do i did and the same result. I also saw on another post that if i go do the ##DATA# and reset to defaults it could fix and it actually took away my 3g or 1xrtt. Im now wiping everything and installing my rom again to see if everything is set back to normal. Ill try again from there hopefully it corrects my data and gets me off roaming. After id pushed a new PRL it never changed what my current version was. It just remained the same PRL.

---------- Post added at 12:30 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:25 PM ----------

OK i flashed my rom again and its still on roaming network. How do i get back on my current PRL so theres no more roaming?
[Hero CDMA General] dtr145r:
can you tell me what prl you are using.

menu>settings>about phone>then either software information or status

look for the PRL version

this hack will not tell you that you are roaming so i think you are actually on stock but id like to check....

its really not that hard...
[Hero CDMA General] BigMosley:
Sorry dude i was just a little aggrevated earlier. I wiped all user data/factory reset and flashed the ROM again and its back to the stock PRL. My current PRL is 60681. I actually went to a sprint store earlier and downloaded and ran speedtest on their display Evo 4g and new Evo 3D and i got the same ****y 3g speeds as my phone has which is around .10-.25 mbps at best.
[Hero CDMA General] BigMosley:
Well I just flashed my Rom like i just stated and was waiting for your response and for ****s and giggles I ran speed test on 3g and I'm getting 2.3 mbps up and 1 mbps down. I didn't flash any new PRLs or anything. Very very weird but I'm happy as hell now!!!
[Hero CDMA General] Drunkpilot:
Flashing a new Rom shouldn't effect your prl. That is why you are able to flash different roms and kernels and still keep the same radio and prl. It sounds like it never changed from the most recent.

You think Meth is bad? Try being a flash whore with a Gingerbread habit and a legacy device! It ain't pretty.
[Hero CDMA General] BigMosley:
Well before I wiped everything I used the netmonitor app and it said my network type was 1xrtt which is 2g I believe and now when I check my network type it says EvDo rev. A which is 3g. So my ****ty speeds were do to me only being on 2g. Going from .25 to 2 is a huge difference.

just to be brief is there a way to fix the text problem that some of us have. for ex. with no recieving or sening text?
[Hero CDMA General] Bierce22:
the only sms issues were with the 0001 prl and the time stamps were just off can u be more spefic as to witch prl your using more than likely its something on sprints side thats messing up.
[Hero CDMA General] BigMosley:
Gingerbread ghostly SMS app in the market will fix the missed text problem.
[Hero CDMA General] oostah:
are you on a 2.3 rom if so on most of 2.3 rom even the D3 stock was is having issues with txt. i dont think its the prl.
[Hero CDMA General] oostah:
thanks man they are in the verizion prl's now. i will look to see if they are worth modifying.
[Hero CDMA General] oostah:
sprints roaming agreement is

Voice/Data Usage Limitation: Sprint reserves the right, without notice, to limit throughput speeds, and to deny, terminate, modify, disconnect or suspend service if off-network usage in a month exceeds: (1) voice: 800 min. or a majority of minutes; or (2) data: 300 megabytes or a majority of kilobytes. Prohibited network use rules apply. See in-store materials or sprint.com/termsandconditions for specific prohibited uses.

can be found here at the bottom of the page under vocie/data

http://shop.sprint.com/mysprint/sho...01cat&planFamilyType=&flow=AAL&showDetailsTab

all carriers are going to if they can prove that you are using free wifi tether or usb tether they can terminate your contract.

and on a good note all carriers are going to one prl. so no one carrier IE verizon cant corner the smaller carriers. from what i have read it should be in the next 6 months. verizion and at&t lost there court cases.

here is one thread right off hand to why the bigger carriers want to stop tethering

Hey, I've been attempting this for a little while now. I'm on Long Island, NY and my area has horrible service. I'm getting around .3-.6mbps upload speed. I wanted to try a different PRL, but couldn't find the epst.apk file anywhere. The old link on here wasn't working. I'm running mikk 2.55 rom right now. Does anyone have a PRL that has been good in this area that i could try and the epst file?
[Hero CDMA General] Ken C:
Here's a link to the epst file I use.download to sd should install like a regular app. I'd remove the (epst.) before the com in the file name before trying. I added it so I could see wth the file was on my phone. As for prl I've learned its a matter of just plugging away til you get a good one.

Hope it helps

Just checked out the corolada PRL list tonight and I am going to email him some of the newer PRL's! This site excited me!

everyone needs to remember that you are using some one else towers so there customers will over ride you. other words is sprint is on verizon tower and it allows 10 people on the tower and you are on it and a verizon customer gets on the tower you will get kicked off it or slow way down for there customers to get the best service.

Makes sense

Hey Oostah,

that file you posted says it's 60668. Not trying to bust ya balls or anything. But is it a typo? Just making sure what I got is all. I have noticed sprint's signal has been improving over the last month or so. Btw, how are you able to pull the prl's from the phone? I like having a regular up to date prl from sprint for "just in case" situations. I appreciate your help on this. Without it my phone woulda been **** for the last 3 months. But it's not like it's your job to supply me with prl's LOL... Don't stop though LOL just trying to learn is all.

i tried the epst.apk patch and worked on my phone running ss8, tried the same thing on my wifes phone with ss8 and it does not work, it applys changes and just sits there when it says "phone will reboot in 10 sec." so i manually reboot and phone still has current sprint prl.

any advice?

Have you tried the 01337 prl? I got pretty good results off that. I'd also try changing the roaming control from sprint only to auto. I noticed that what would run well on one side of town would produce that 67 code someplace else. Sprints been messing with thier towers lately.

Anyone have a recommendation for this area or should I just get the latest Sprint PRL?

[Hero CDMA General] Ken C:
I'd try the newest one. I'm in south fl. up against the everglades and it's been running pretty well for me. as for a different one, try the 01337-mod prl. that one also worked well. Other than that you just have to keep trying different prl's and changing roam control from sprint only to automatic. It's really a matter of trying till you get one that works best for you.
[Hero CDMA General] Bierce22:
either use the current sprint prl or one of the corporate ones if u travel alot u shouldnt be roaming near as much on it
[Hero CDMA General] smallfrys:
Success! Installing the driver on Win 7 x64 was the hardest part.

I do have a few questions though:

1. Will I be alright using the Verizon-only PRL (52299) since I usually use far less than 1 GB/month total?

2. Will this let me use Verizon for calls too? It says I'm roaming, has the triangle, and says "Preferred System." So I'm guessing yes, but want to make sure.

3. What is Roam Control used for? Is it worth rooting just to use that? I've been hesitant to root mostly because I use banking apps on my phone and don't want other apps being able to look at that data.
[Hero CDMA General] Hippie459MN:
Rooting your phone has nothing to do with apps looking at your data. You can make an app do that without giving it root access.
