I have tried nearly every prl and none of them seem to improve much at all. I live in the Nashville market.

Anyone else had luck with a particular prl in my market?

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dtr145r:
2 questions.

1. Do you currently have 3g?

2. Are you using roam control?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kz6fittycent:
Yes.

No.

However, I've heard poor reviews about roam control and didn't want to bother with it.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] graphic1982:
roam control is a savior. load any of the 111xx PRL's and get 3g roaming on verizon. If i don't force roam with roam control at work phone calls wont even come through.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Epix4G:
Has anyone tried using the app any cut to write the prl on e4gt ? It works great on galaxy nexus but roam control doesn't
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kz6fittycent:
My Rom has force roam baked in. Is roam control going to change that?

sent from my shooter 4g
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dtr145r:
well there is the problem.

you have 3g. im guessing on sprint. the only way it can get better is if you roam on another network for the 3g which you will need prls like 1115 or 1119 and roam control.

you could also just use 00001 with out roam control because that prl is strictly roaming.

people give roam control a bad review because they misunderstand how it and the prls work

using roamcontrol with standard prls such as 60683 and 60685 will has a negative affect because sprint only has 1x data roaming agreements on them

1115 1119 etc. have 3g roaming aggreements therefore there is a good chance that you will see faster speeds with this setup

---------- Post added at 01:18 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:15 PM ----------

IF the rom has it baked in then you shouldnt need roam control.

---------- Post added at 01:20 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:18 PM ----------

I downloaded the app, and while following instructions from the link posted, there is no shortcut to PRL write (running CM9). Someone else should try a TW rom and see if it works.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kz6fittycent:
Yeah, I've used 1115 and 0001 and they were great for a couple days but then they as slow as Sprint. Updated profile to refresh services but that didn't seem to work. And yes, my Rom IS baked with force roam.

From my reading, it appears that some Sprint prls work better in some areas and not in others. What I'm looking for is someone with experience in my market with a prl they've had luck with.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] canteenboy:
I can't seem to get Roam Control to work. If I flash the prl and force roam the 1st time it will connect to EVDO. After that it will only do 1x. I have tried 11115, 11119,11121.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] blackops11252:
It will take sometimes a couple of minutes for it to switch from 1x to 3G when roaming.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Whosdaman:
I haven't given up...it is tedious work creating the perfect PRL and ensuring it works :-\

So far I can only guarantee the Sprint side works flawlessly, but roaming is a major factor to me and the users for the next year or two

im a little confused on the progress of this thread. what is the best option at this point? im on the latest ota prl currently
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] graphic1982:
if you have good sprint service stick with latest 60687 prl. If you need to force roaming i'd say use roam control with any of the 111xx prl's and force roaming. If you just wanna use VZW then go with 00001 or 00002.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] afinch1992:
thank you for your reply. i saw in some posts that some roms force roaming. does that work with ota prls?

---------- Post added at 11:37 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:36 AM ----------

if i use anything other than the current one i have will i still be able to use 4g?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dtr145r:
no stock ota prls dont have 3g roaming agreements.

prls have nothing to do with 4g so it will have no affect.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] afinch1992:

---------- Post added at 12:25 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:09 PM ----------

well I changed to verizon 00002 and the connection seems to be better. I will check more extensively when I am home from work tho
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tdunham:
I think if you use the Verizon 00002 PRL you will ALWAYS be roaming, even if the signal bar doesn't show it. It's stated somewhere here in this thread. I prefer 11119. You can still roam on 3g and when you switch back, you will be on the Sprint network.

Edit: But I think 00002 is faster too. But why risk it if you use a lot of data.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] graphic1982:
the 00002 prl is always roaming on verizon. therefore all data shows up as roaming data and all phone calls deduct from your monthly limit. I prefer prl 11121 and force roam at work where i have no signal and switch back to automatic everywhere else i go.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Whosdaman:
I am, but no area has 800 MHz switched on yet. It the fact that 12117 isn't performing to the standards of 60683 and 11115

Verizon 3G, but it's slower than Sprint so far for me.

I'm actually working on a public document. I'm scrapping these results and starting over.

Possibly. But what is best for me, may not be best for someone say in Kansas or New York or California.

01337 was reported to not be working anymore, it is also outdated, but I will add it to the list of testing.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Whosdaman:
If you have any PRL that you wish to be tested, and want to test please attach and let me know where it came from. I will be more than happy to test any PRL!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Ja5oN:
Right on Korey thanks for your research... I have been following the other how to load a custom PRL thread for a few months now, interesting topic. Its good to see actual real life testing going into this project rather then just playing the guessing game on which PRL works best. I live in California, and will be testing the same same PRLs in the OP and send you or post the data that I have collected.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] stargaterules:
How do you go back to the Sprint's original PRL once you get done with testing these?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jerdog:
If you are using a PRL that is Verizon only then yes - Sprint registers that as 3G data roaming. If you are using a PRL that allows roaming between Sprint and Verizon it will only register Data Roaming when you're on Verizon.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jerdog:
Just do an Update PRL on your phone.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Whosdaman:
Yes, but it doesn't including pulling and I've revised the updating part a bit. It was merely to include it in here so people can see what to do.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Whosdaman:
I'm slowly updating the Excel file. I'll create Pivot Table soon within it to compile the data
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Whosdaman:
I've noticed a major problem. Seems the the Verizon PRL's and the corporate PRLs are flipping between EvDO Rev. O and Rev. A. It's causing some conflicts. Be sure to check the raw data before you write it down. Rev. O is only a little faster than 1xRTT
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Whosdaman:
There are a few new Verizon PRL's I'm looking for.

- 14008 Alltel associated PRL for Verizon

If anyone can get their hands on any of these, let me know. I don't know how the 15XXX will work, they are Verizon's LTE device PRL's.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] stargaterules:
K, I guess I'm confused. If Sprint only allows you to use 300 MB of roaming, then what's the point of using other PRLs when you can reach that in a day or less?

Second questio- is there a PRL that will allow you to use say Verizon's network without Sprint seeing it as roaming?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tdunham:
Same for me too. The 11121 is an updated PRL to the 11119, correct?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] graphic1982:
i would assume it is. I've been using it and i get 3g roaming. I always upgrade prls in the 111xx line. Went from 11115>11119>11121 and always get 3g roaming.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] epdp14:
I only need the ability to connect to 3g while roaming... which prl is best? I am assuming 61085, but what about the mobile broadband ones like the 11121?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tdunham:
I don't know much about 61085, it may be a corporate prl (and	it would be nice if someone could tell us what the difference is ;)).

11119 & 11121 the ones to use for force roaming on 3g.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] epdp14:
I don't necessarily need to force roaming, I'd just like it to be able to roam on 3g when Sprint 3g isn't available.

You answered your own question immediately after asking it. :) The corporate PRL's are made to allow corporate customers to be able to roam on 3g. This allows Sprint to "properly" perform for sales folk who are far more likely to wander out of Sprint network areas than the average Joe.

Nope :( Have to flash to a TW rom....

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] chrisnosleep:
I live in south-central Kansas where a whole bunch of Sprint's towers were shut down recently. I recently installed the 11121 PRL and it is smoking in this area. Using roam control to force roaming and testing with SpeedTest.net consistently shows D/L speeds of 1.4 to 2.0 Mbps. Upload speeds around .5 to .6 Mbps. And, if I happen to be in an area where I can get a Sprint signal, I easily get 2 Mbps download speeds. However, upload speeds vary wildly.

Compared to the official 60687 that is currently out, 11121 is the only option. On 60687 my speeds are fairly close to that of dial up. :mad: Just a heads up!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] afinch1992:
I am a bit confused on roam control and forcing. How does it not show up in your bill? What roms have this capability? I am currently on calk's 1.6 and have been thinking about giving cm9 a shot
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] graphic1982:
Sprint gives you unlimited roaming. Although there are limits to it, they usually only pay attention if you have massive amounts of roaming (>300 megabytes). As far as roms that have the capability, well they all do, some play better with the app than others in my experience, but every single rom i've tried out is able to use the roam control app.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] afinch1992:
thank you for the info. what is the roam control app? i searched the thread and could not find a specific app called roam control. maybe im just blind tho
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] afinch1992:
Ok found the apply online. Now I just switch it to roaming and reset at like work or where ever?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] chrisnosleep:
That's how I do it. If I have a poor Sprint signal that may be draining my battery, I'll switch to roaming for the sake of my battery and speeds.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] elliwigy:
Yea.. open app and set to roam only.. did you write another prl to ur phone? If not your going to still have prl 60687.. which while using roam control will get a signal but wont go over .13mbps down and up usually slightly higher.. and to the person who said unlimited roaming is wrong.. look in your contract or search xda for ppl who got letters from sprint using too much data while roaming.. contract has a limit.. i believe it says you can use up to 200mb while roaming.. also somewhat true that they wont bother unless they see your consistently over using your data while roaming. Only unlimited while on the sprint network.. i use roam cintrol religously and have yet to get any letter but i hardly use my data since on cm9 and prl 60687 cant download anything for S***
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] afinch1992:

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dtr145r:

if so AND verizon does have 3g in your area then you are doning something wrong.

possibly in youre rom settings you need to have roaming data checked under mobile settings.

I'm having the same issue. I have Verizon 3g in my area, but it only goes to 1x. I'm using CM9 daily builds with data roaming checked on my Nexus S 4G. I'm in Los Angeles, so there's 3g blanketed with both services. I'm thinking there is no Verizon 3g on this PRL in my area because Sprint knows that it's covered pretty well.

00002 provides the best speeds. 12121 didn't do much for me as it still put me on Alltel towers so that speed was awful. Loaded up 02 and hittin past 1.5mbps. on alltel i was like to get passed 150kbps

kind of disappointed with roam control, i thought it'd give me more control, like choosing from a list of towers in my area. should have looked more into it before buying. really not seeing the value it has since it's automatic or roam only. really wish it gave a list of towers to choose from.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tdunham:
The 02 prl will also keep you on Verizon even if you turn roaming off.
