Make sure you check Samsung in the settings, I used RC for about a year now with no problems. You don't need it for 0001. Its works for any phone really, all you need is root.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] iSkylla:
I have it selected but yeah, it's not roaming for me. I am on Calkulin's ROM 2.5.1. I will try a stock kernel and report back.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bigtoysrock:
So what your saying is 00001 makes your phone roam always?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Rob4828:
Yea although your phone isnt notifying you that you are roaming. If u used the app netmonitor it will say that you are on verizon network. Also you wont need roam control at all
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] xlGmanlx:
Dude, thanks for clearing it up, after rereading the op it clearly states that
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JBTY:
I live in puerto rico there is no verizon nor alltel etc etc which prl will allow me to get the best signal on the sprint network?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bluefire808:
I think your standard sprint prl will. All theae prl's are designed to steal other network signles at 3g speed instead of 1x, also for the guy that cant get Caulkin's 2.5.1 working with roam controle. I have it working 100% on caulkins 2.5.1 using the prl 11115. I get 1.3-1.5Mb/sec but it will only work with certain versizon towers. I do beleive it only works with 3g on older version towers or a certain type of version 3g? I hear that not all verision towers will work with sprint phones... Eh forgot why
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JBTY:
I do get roaming and 3g data roaming as well i beleive open mobile is used for roaming. i was just wondering if the corporate sprint prls would give me superior roaming coverage etc
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] iSkylla:
Weird, I still couldn't get it to work. The 00001 PRL is interesting which has roaming 24/7. I'll probably use the 11115 PRL from now on.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] xlGmanlx:
yeah, I moved to the 11115 hybrid so I could stay on sprint at home and roam when I am out and about
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dkotoric:
on prl 00001 i startup my phone abd i have 3g but as i start using the internet it flips to 1g.

Also does it matter if im roaming on verizon or US Cellular as far as getting kicked off

OP, can you remove your text that makes x-drivers look trustworthy? That site comes off as a malware site. It packages all downloads with that media get software. That is not something legitimate sites do.

Please make a note to download the file from somewhere other than x-drivers.com

Also, is it possible to revert back to the latest Sprint official PRL just by clicking 'Update PRL' in settings?

EDIT: Ok, yep. You can revert back to the original Sprint PRL just by clicking 'Update PRL' in your settings. It put me from 11115 to 60683. I get much better speeds on the official 60683 than I do on the corporate version. I think the corporate version needs to be updated.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dkotoric:
Ok just wanted to make sure im trying to get kicked off and my acct just cycled today, i used up 10gb od roaming data on us celular network and none on verizon cause its not letting me stay connected to 3g on the 00001 prl
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dkotoric:
Has anyone tried calling sprint and telling thdn that someone called u regarding having to cancel ur acct bc of roaming eventhough nobody did yet
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] phatmanxxl:
Some people said they got a letter of warning, some people reported just being terminated without prior notice. They keep notes of conversations with CSR's. So they know if your BSing or not.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Megatr0n.:
Is there another link to get the latest corporate PRLs? 11115 is outdated since Sprint's latest PRL is 60683, not 60681 as in the original post.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tweeker404:
Where are you seeing this text about x-drivers? I don't see the drivers being downloaded from there...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tweeker404:
I don't think there is any newer corporate pro available.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bigtoysrock:
Question. With prl 00001, I get 3g signal but with 11115 + roam control I get no 3G... Any ideas??
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Megatr0n.:
The following text:

1. Quoting x-drivers.com gives it an air of legitimacy. Leading people to believe that it's a legitimate site that they can download from. Whether or not the media program that x-drivers.com attaches to all the software is malware or not isn't relevant. It's enough that the website takes an original program and wraps its own unessential program to the installer so that the downloader is forced to install x-drivers.com's program first in order to install the program that they actually wanted to download.

2. x-drivers.com is the third link in a google search for QPST 2.7 build 323. Given its standing in search results, I think that it's important that people be told that they should avoid that website.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] boe:
I'm on PRL 0001. How do I verify which carrier I'm using for data? I want to make sure I'm using Verizon Data while I'm downloading tons of stuff.

When I run netmonitor it says Operator 310... (Sprint) Carrier Springwich Celluar LP. I'm not sure if Springwich is Sprint or Verizon or someone else - I've never heard of them.

I tried PRL 0015 and netmonitor says I'm on Sprint PCs. I tried 01120 and it said Sprint in netmonitor as well. Is there an additional step I have to take on the phone to make sure it is roaming (not just can roam)?

Thanks
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] R1ptide:
OP here

I'll change the xdriver thing and host the file myself later when I get to an actual PC.

As for the new corporate PRL, we need someone whose account gets it to pull it from their phone if in fact it had been updated. If above finds it pm me and I'll add it to OP.

Yeah, I was able to locate a clean copy of the app myself, but do also agree that there needs to be less specific recommendations or at least notify folks when they tried this link they were "required to.."
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ggoldfingerd:
Thanks for the post and prl files. I was getting majorly pawned trying to flash a prl file. It's actually funny, even my MSL didn't work, so I tried 000000 and it work. After flashing, I realized what happened. I was flashing the 3G modem in my laptop.... Luckily, I was able to get the correct prl file back on it and it stopped roaming. To everyone, make sure your using the correct USB port! 3G is a nice thing to have while roaming.

Well im finally done with sprint amd im a very happy tmobile customer

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] boe:
Congrats! Mind telling us how many days/GB it took for them to give you the boot?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Rob4828:
Can you get a contract with sprint 2 years later after being booted and do you get charged when your booted
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] fenixjn:
Coming from the EVO forums if I remember correctly there was a Sprint employee that stated that once you are booted for this reason there is no way to get back (unless you sign up under someone else)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] thechosen1ji:
No way!!

so i followed the steps and used the prl 00001 and i got amazing speeds using verizon towers. I confirmed that by using speed test app, the top speed was the one i got using Verizon all the other are sprint 3g ugh. I also used the netmonitor app to make sure i was using Verizon data. I'll be waiting for my termination letter happily :D
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Will of fire:
I get good speeds on 0001 too i have roamed over 10 gb this month and didnt get the boot so im happy.

I'm up to 15GB roaming and 4 GB on Sprint - still no letter.

I don't want a letter I just get crap speeds without that
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] boe:
I get crap speeds on Sprint. I'm downloading torrents every night (the same ones over and over) while on roaming in a desperate attempt to free myself from Sprint's ETF. I'll admit I'm more pissed at Sprint for promising better data speeds, claiming there are tower issues in my area for the past 2 years and pissed at myself for believing it. I could pay the ETF but now I'm interested in what it takes for Sprint to release me from a contract they didn't even attempt to enter into in good faith. Three very polite phone calls from me explaining that after 2 years I still don't get decent speeds I got - everything looks OK in your area.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] BenThereDidThat:
Have you tried getting a Sprint 3G AIRAVE yet? They will give it to you for free if you can show them that you need one. A speedtest screen would probably help.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] boe:
They did give me one. Doesn't work well in the car and inconvenient to set up at client's offices and friends homes. I've been asked to bring my phone in and they've seen my crappy speeds several times and claim the (two) Sprint stores I've brought them to are in a location with bad reception as well. I've changed out my phone 4 times in the last 6 months. They really don't deserve any more of my time.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] drmacinyasha:
How very odd. I can't get any data to work while at my house. 11115 (when roaming) and 00001 both show a stable 3G connection, but I can't download apps, refresh Twitter, or anything.

I guess I'll give 01337 a try?

EDIT: 01337 has the same issue. Well, this is disturbing. No 3G data means I can't very well rack up roaming data to get Sprint to drop me.

Double Edit: Tried loading 00001 again. I can make calls, and visit any Google website or service, including getting notifications of new Gmail messages. But Twitter, Foursquare, and every other site never connects, even though I can ping their respective servers just fine. Quite odd.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jayh214:
same here :confused:
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] boe:
I think Sprint has changed something; I was able to use 0001 no problem before. I can still browse the web with 0001 but I couldn't get to certain web pages to work and downloading torrents was an issue. I initiate the session for a torrent with wifi now but then turn off wifi once it begins downloading. I can continue to use bandwidth once I kill the wifi connection.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] boolboo:
I can confirm this. I came to this thread to see if others were having this issue. I can only get on google sites using the 01 PRL. Has anyone gone back to a sprint PRL to confirm that the verizon one is the issue?

****....if the 01 PRL is broken...im really going to miss it.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dtr145r:
****ttt

im having the same problem.

i just reset everything on my phone thinking i borked something.

at least i have a nand.

i guess the 0001 is no good anymore

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bigtoysrock:
I was on 00001 up until yesterday (maybe the day before that) and had working data. Had swapped back to a normal PRL to check the new EL26 modem. I will swap back to 00001 tonight and see if I get the same thing you all are getting since I know it worked for me in my area before.

I can't get 3G roaming with the corporate PRLs, it's only very VERY slow 1x (2G) roaming on verizon. The 0001 PRL gives great verizon coverage.

Are there updated corporate PRLs? Thanks.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dtr145r:
Cooperate prls only work in a few states. Chances are yours is not one of them..
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] iSkylla:
Too bad. Do you know of a PRL that will run in the NYC/tristate area?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] boolboo:
Can you upload a custom prl to any sprint android phone? My girlfriend would like to run 0001 on her evo 3d.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] boe:
Can you tell me why some people would want the corporate PRLs? I'm not sure what coporate ones do for you over regular ones.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] iSkylla:
Allows you to roam with 3G instead of 2G.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] boe:
Thanks - so you are telling me my 2G on Verizon (I'm on 0001) I'm still faster than Sprint?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] iSkylla:
Well on the 00001 PRL, you are roaming all the time at 3G, not 2G.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Dalmus:
Its possible Verizon is experimenting with blocking torrents... Can't say I blame them too much.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] boe:
BTJunkie working fine on Verizon again using 0001 - must have been a temporary glitch.

I've downloaded 20GB so far on Verizon with no response from Sprint. Do they wait until your billing cycle has ended to review and contact you or does it have to be more than 1 month in a row?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] phatmanxxl:
Some people said they've used 0001 for a year then finally got booted. Im sure it'll be take more than 30 days.

Mid 2013 is a life time in cellular industry, no? I have no wimax here, and never will. 4g lte? I know Omaha is not at the top off their market list, in fact, it's probably at the bottom.

I use about 1.5-2g per month. But I also use a lot of minutes. I work on my phone, and probably racked up 800+mins of voice roaming.

Just to let everyone know updating to either EL26 or el29 modem breaks the 3g roam hack

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Whosdaman:
11115 is the best. It is basically 00001 and 60683 combined
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Menashe04:
I am interested in doing this for my et4g but I like to know exactly what it is before I do it. Does this affect my service when I'm in sprint, or is the only thing this affect is for when I'm roaming to Verizon it changes which tower I roam to?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dmchssc:
It depends which PRL you flash. The only two really worth looking into are 00001 and 11115. With 00001, you will always be roaming, but your phone's signal indicator will not show the roaming symbol. However, Sprint still detects this usage as roaming. Since Sprint reserves the right to boot subscribers who roam too much (300 MB or 800 minutes or 50% of total data or minutes), this is not a good PRL to use for an extended period of time unless you don't mind being kicked and banned from Sprint for a while. On the other hand, with the 11115 PRL, everything will work exactly the same as it does now, except when your phone begins roaming, (or roaming is forced with Roam Control) it will connect to EVDO instead of just 1xRTT. This gives you much faster data speeds while roaming, but avoids most of the problems with the 00001 PRL. However, since higher speeds tend to lead to more data use, you still need to be conscious of data use while roaming to avoid passing the 300 MB quota.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] caaznkid:
Hey guys I could use some help. Having trouble getting 3G on the 11115 PRL using roam control latest version (i bought it and have license so it works). It roams only on 1x or 2g or watever that is. Using the 00001 PRL I can get 3G fine so something must be wrong with my phone or something. I'm in southern california (orange county) if that helps at all. If anyone from that region could chime in I would appreciate it. Thanks. I would really like the ability to switch back and forth b/w networks.

Does ##8778# not work on EL29?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Whosdaman:
Yes it does
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bralkan:
odd...

When I hit the final # it clears the numbers (And i've tried other dialer codes and they work), but it doesn't bring up the menu.

Am I being dense and missing something?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Whosdaman:
##8778#, try restarting phone if anything. If you are running a custom ROM it may have been borked.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Archon810:
I have the same thing, and had it for months. ##8778# just clears and doesn't start whatever it's supposed to. All I did was root using the original zedomax method, then flashed back to stock to get rid of the boot exclamation point.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Whosdaman:
There's the problem. Don't use zedomax root method. It causes more problems than anything. Just flash sfhubs rooted stock roms. That way you keep stock bootloader, but a rooted rom
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bigtoysrock:
That method has nothing to do with why his ##8778# is not working. I used the same method months ago and have ZERO issues with how I rooted or anything. I still have the yellow triangle, cause frankly don't give a damn. I think there's an issue with the rom your on. Try a custom rom and see if it works then.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Whosdaman:
He's on stock rooted... Can't get much purer than that
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bigtoysrock:
Technically correct, however if it was pure and nothing was wrong he would be able to perform ##8778#, correct. However he can't run that 1, so maybe, just maybe, he should try another rom, even if its another stock or custom, don't matter. Your blaming his root method. Could be right, but I did the same and have no issues is the point I'm making. Another thing is try different things, such as flash another rom after you backup the stock.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Whosdaman:
Well I suggest everyone having problems to Odin back to stock and start over. If it doesn't work on stock we might have a problem
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] fallenraven75:

i flashed 11115 and now i get 1x Internet speed

i flashed back to 60681 and still get 1X

what happen i need my 3G back ??

any help please
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] R1ptide:
No worries, this is how you learn. A PRL is a "preferred roaming list," it tells your phone what towers to connect to and what frequencies to scan for different services when roaming. Normal Sprint PRLs don't tell the phone to look for EVDO (3G) coverage when roaming and your forced to very slow 1X speeds. The 11115 PRL allows you to roam on 3G data. Now you could go find a Verizon PRL throw it on there and your phone would connect to Verizon's network first anytime it could see it, and then connect to their roaming partners if Verizon coverage wasn't present. I don't do that because that means quite a bit of time spent on Verizon's network instead of Sprint's and they can cancel your service for to much roaming. So I use 11115, normally I'm on Sprint, if I ever have bad coverage but the phone is trying to hold onto a very weak sprint signal I use Roam Control to go "Roaming Only" and voila Verizon/Alltel's network.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Amd4life:
Can't you use the old epst apk, and code ##775# to do this, or is this different from the evo 4g, or 3d???
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] R1ptide:
Like you, I'm more familiar with HTC. I don't think it can be done that way on the Sammy phones, but I could be wrong.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] churro7:
still need root for roam control to work on samsung?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] klub242:
It's not working for me. I flashed the 11115 prl and used root control to switch to roaming only but it's staying on sprint. Am I missing something? I've got Zedomaxes V3 kernel. Also, I live in South Seattle.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] R1ptide:
yeah unfortunately

Are you sure the flash worked? settings/aboutphone/status, prl version?

can you ever roam? If you put your phone in a place where it doesn't get a sprint signal does it roam.

I would guess Roam Control isn't working correctly
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] klub242:
It's working now, can't remember what I did. I do notice switching from home to roam on roam control it switches to roaming fast but takes several minutes to connect to 3G, is that normal?

1115.prl only allows 3g in 5 states. OH and FL are 2 of them, i dont know the rest.
