[HTC EVO 3D] Sad Panda:
Dude, did you just read the first sentence of my post, I explained exactly why your logic is incomplete. No need to go any further. It comes down to monopoly. We have next to no choice on who we go with.
[HTC EVO 3D] Dysrhythmic:
PRL 11115 is a Sprint PRL, correct? So, if I use that PRL and don't roam, I'm still only using Sprint's network? I am getting great speeds without using roaming.
[HTC EVO 3D] Sad Panda:
I think we need solstice to come back and answer that, he seems to know more about it than anyone.

From my understanding though, no your interpretation isn't correct. I understood it to be a business prl. Meaning it is a sprint issued prl, but heavier on the off network roaming. It tries to get you on the tower that will get you speed, when that can't happen on a sprint tower it will go on another network to get it, and still allow 3G, not 1x. Where as the custom prl puts you on a Verizon tower almost all the time because they are almost always faster than sprint, and will allow 3G roaming, and not 1x. Sprint won't seem to let most customers 3G roam, maybe because it is too expensive for them.
[HTC EVO 3D] Rob the plumber:
I loaded this prl yesterday used roam control, while roaming I only had 1x data. 00001 was Verizon speedy though.
[HTC EVO 3D] Dysrhythmic:
The roaming icon isn't on, though. I'm also able to use 4g indoors. From my understanding, only Sprint has Wimax, right?
[HTC EVO 3D] Sad Panda:
Yeah currently there won't be any roaming to other 4g networks, certainly not Verizon because they are using lte not Wimax.

As for 3G roaming, if you use the custom prl you won't see the roaming icon.
[HTC EVO 3D] SolsticeZero:
Yes, the 11115 PRL is a Sprint PRL that allows full 3G roaming on Verizon. I've tried it out, but, where I am, the Verizon speeds aren't any better than the Sprint speeds. You might notice if you load it and enable roam only in Roam Control that you still only see 1x. That happens sometimes, and just rebooting usually fixes it.
[HTC EVO 3D] Dysrhythmic:
I have been monitoring my usage on Sprint.com for the last day. It only shows 1 MB of roaming. I'm relieved that I'm on a Sprint PRL that works great.

I have tried "roam only" and it displays the 3G and roaming icons. But, since this PRL is working so well, I just leave it on Sprint only.

Are there any other business PRLs that work as well as this one?
[HTC EVO 3D] codygs83:
I do believe I will be trying this prl tonight.

And as for the "holier than thou" user, I can honestly say I don't feel like a thief to get good coverage in areas such as the workplace and home where there was minimal to none on the sprint network. If anything I feel like I'm being raped by Sprint paying $2,100 a year for 2 lines and not be able to use my phone where I need it the most. I've had Sprint for almost 12 years now and I can in good conscience use my sprint devise on another network. I'm not going to call and complain again to their so called tech support and phone technicians who are obviously a joke and a waste of my time because all they do is shrug their shoulders at me.
[HTC EVO 3D] Sad Panda:
It would be one thing if you were stealing something, but you aren't. Your contract says you can roam unlimited, and sprint has a reciprocal roaming agreement with Verizon so users can do this. Is this 100% ethical? Well no, but in terms of how it affects Verizon customers it really doesn't matter, because it doesn't slow them down. Not only do they have better coverage for voice and data, but higher speed, and Verizon dumps billions into making their network great. Not to mention they have 4g almost everywhere, so many customers that need fast data, have fast data via the 4g network. I don't think anyone needs to justify or defend their actions. There are always going to be people here that have a strong opinion of something, and because of that their bias tends to blow things out of proportion, and the perceived effect from that action is more than the actual effect. In science we call that "observer bias". They will argue the contrary, but it happens quite often.
[HTC EVO 3D] Raignonem:
Well said.
[HTC EVO 3D] codygs83:
touche! thank you
[HTC EVO 3D] Sad Panda:
Thank you. I support and defend you guys. If the circumstances were different, or you were stealing something that you weren't paying for or promised, or it drastically affected others, including Verizon customers my response would be drastically different. I'd probably be the first one calling you douche bags, and selfish, but the circumstances aren't different, so I am on your side. I wish sprint wouldn't have screwed their 4g rollout the first time around, I wish their 3G equipment was better, I wish they had invested the huge money they have made bringing customers to unlimited data plans, I wish they had made better decisions with their business but they didn't so here we are. Contracts are a two way street. They are promised a certain amount of income for a certain amount of time per customer, and you are held to the terms of that agreement. Unfortunately this little workaround is the customer creating their own solution to a problem with service that is not being well taken care of like promised, and so again...here we are. Not completely ethical, certainly not illegal, certainly not the best solution, but it is a temporary band aid for a large wound. Pretty sad.

Cheers, happy holidays.

can anybody help I'm new to EVO 3d and I get bad service were can I get the prl and how do I install it. can anyone help
[HTC EVO 3D] thizzlemania91:
Ok well first off all you need to be rooted or look at the thread that says change prl without root. Kay dial ##3282# and enter your msl code (get msl reader from market) you need to be rooted for msl to read your deal. Then enter msl then go to edit mode change prl to whatever prl you want.

For the guy above go to team nocturnal website
[HTC EVO 3D] fisher1991:
So I typed in the data code and my msl but i couldn't find where the prl was or how to change it any help? Thanks
[HTC EVO 3D] exSD:
You should be going to ##PRL# not ##DATA#.

If ##PRL# puts you back to your dialer then your EPST if not compatible. You will need a compatible EPST.apk. It may be in this thread (check attachments) but it isn't hard to find.
[HTC EVO 3D] sander999:
ok so I did the ##3282# and the msl I'm seeing 5 options 1-date option

2-EVDO

3-advanced

4- Wimax

5- UBS

what should I select please help
[HTC EVO 3D] thizzlemania91:
Sry I messed up dial ##775# then enter your msl

[HTC EVO 3D] sander999:
Thank you so much
[HTC EVO 3D] sander999:
I'm not rooted so ##775# won't work I tried it but thank you for your help
[HTC EVO 3D] thizzlemania91:
You can still change it. It's a lot harder thoo. Go to google and search " how to change prl" i click on the android central website bro.
[HTC EVO 3D] jes24cap:
Just a FYI Sprint can decide not to cancel your contract and charge you for your roaming. It clearly states that in your contract and if your trying to avoid a $200 fee and get stuck with a $600 phone bill instead. Ouch! My sprint rep told me that they might start enforcing it.

Anyone with a Focus S know if it has the same Diagnosis menu as the original Focus? If so...do any of the original diagnosis codes work?

It does have the diagnosis app. So far some of the original codes dont work with it though. I couldnt find the AutoAPN or the sound when I tried the original codes.
[Focus General] simbadogg:
Cool thanks
[Focus General] simbadogg:
By the way, if you have the focus s, can you also check the charger. it looks like the same 800 mA charger output, but i just wanted to be sure.
[Focus General] Rcf686:
I will check in the box when I get home. I have just been using the charger from my original Focus.
[Focus General] jfreiman:
I too have the Focus S

The charger states 5.0v .70A

The charge is really slow - just like the Focus, but longer since it's a larger battery.

That said, I don't use the chargers unless I'm traveling because I have two dual USB / power outlets - which are really cool, and turn off when there is no device connected. :)

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Cleargrey:
I ask this totally un-PC question because as I read more and more about UK vendors coming out officially and saying that you can indeed get the Nexus on the 17th, I feel like going back to all those threads where people started *****ing about Google being this and Samsung being that, without exercising any real thought applied with patience. Evidently the launch (everyelse but the Americas I'm guessing) hasn't been botched as (I'm paraphrasing) many have said. The Americas... well, I think we've come to understand that Verizon is playing hardball.

Even though I can't be bothered to go through the threads, the are plenty of others where people start flaming companies, others forum users, self-flaming for erotic pleasure, whatever.

LOL. I agree a *****slap icon would be fun.

However, on the topic of the launch, i would say the *****slap icon should be used only after the 17th if its proven there is wide general availability of the GNexus. I still think there are e-tailers advertising misleading dates. Just today Clove confirmed to a user (posted somewhere on the gnexus thread) that they didnt know when stock would actually arrive and they may not be able to ship till w/c 21st even though their web site still says 17th.

Don't waste your time.. Unless you don't mind 119 kB/s data speeds. Just to give you an idea of how slow that is, it takes about a minute to load www.nytimes.com. Ridiculous.

I've quadruple checked the APN settings, rebooted multiple times, and even activated the service with 2 of their SIM cards (Yes, I paid for 2 months of service with 2 sim cards to try and get this crap to be worth it)..

A quick Google search also turned up many similar complaints. Too bad I didn't do my research. This is all on their "3G" data plan.

Don't waste your time like I did.
[HTC Sensation] j0hnnyn:
on my first try, i just hit 4mbps with only 2 bars of reception on 4g with the $60/month simple mobile plan
[HTC Sensation] montez.061-:
I second that I called t-mobile when I first got this phone just to figure out how my vibrant was beating it hands down on speedtest 10/10 times. You gotta get the $60 plan to get 4g speeds.
[HTC Sensation] Fast-Droid:
I'm on the Simple $60 4G..Using CM7 ROM overclocked to 1.4..My data speeds are crazy fast ,even@1.0g ..Dunno but in Miami/Nyc only Verizon LTE can barely beat my T-Mobile data..I had a Thunderbolt with LTE and if in the right spot it was a rocket but cost twice as much a month..
[HTC Sensation] ags29:
I see. So it looks like the 4G plan is worth it, but the 3G one should still not be advertised as 3G if it runs at 2G speeds.

Oh well, none of the customer service agents were able to mention any of this so I already switched back to T-Mobile.
[HTC Sensation] clockcycle:
Finally spoke to someone at Simple Mobile tech support that was able to tell me something that makes sense. At least in my case and it may be the issue for others as well.

I switched my SIM from a Verizon Motorola Droid 2 Global, that only supports EDGE / 2G connection to a Tmobile Sidekick 4G. Which is considered a Samsung Galaxy S 4G.

Well the problem is that it connects at 4G and since I am on the $40, when it does try to connect to the towers I am not authorized for 4G, so it automatically throttles me to 119..

He suggested I toggle 4G off and connect 3G and I should get full speeds... My problem now is that this phone doesn't have an option or toggle, that I know of to test.

Perhaps someone else that knows how to toggle a SK4G could give me a hint or someone could put this to the test on their, it would help the rest of us resolve this mystery.

-CC
[HTC Sensation] overthinkingme:
3G and "4G" are both throttled. In fact, switching to EDGE will get you faster speeds near 150 kbps.

The $60 plan isn't worth it. It isn't really unlimited, I get one or two customers per month with disconnected Internet. Hard cap is somewhere around 3-4gb. Another thing is that their MMS is hardly ever working even on "compatible phones".

I jumped ship to the tmobile $60 monthly plan. I've yet to see any customer get disconnected. I don't use international texts so I don't miss simple and my MMS works flawlessly.

That being said, if Simple capped it slightly higher, about 200kbps I would be all over it, $20 saved are $20 earned lol

That will get you started. Just click on the link for the version you pick up and it will take you to flashing instructions. The only thing you have to watch is that you don't get a v7. They are older routers but work great, especially for what you want to do. After you flash the router, ddwrt has numerous guides on how to configure it as a repeater.
