I found my answer from another thread:
-----------------------
a PRL is a list of roaming information and for evdo users it lists all the evdo towers also.
to manually update your prl, type ##prl# on the phones keypad, enter MSL, browse to the msl file.
----------------------
just did the update and testing now

enter ##PRL# (##775#)
it will ask for your MSL enter it (search for msl generator) if you dont know it
and hit ok
tap Update Prl and then goto menu edit, load up the file it will ask you to reboot and your good to go...

hmmm, seems my previous PRL was blank??
With the upgrade, I dont see much of a difference but I dont know if I have REV A speeds.
At the bottom it shows 3 KB and now shows 134 KB but is kind of frozen on nba.com.
nfl.com opens pretty fast but I went back to nba.com and same issue. Stuck with 141kb showing at the bottom now...grrr

before updating the PRL i was getting around 134kb/s with dslreports.com/mspeed
now i get about 670kb/s

Using www.mobilespeedtest.com before I got 676 now I only get about 600.
Not much of a change for my area I'd say...

Chicago Suburbs - Near Schaumburg
Before 700kbps
Now 670kbps
btw i did 7 tests before and 7 after to find the average not going by just 1 test

will this PRL update stay when i hard reset or flash to new ROM?

Yes, this has to do with the Radio, not the ROM...

I updated yo Prl 60711 today on mogul. My speeds at office have always been about 22-32 kbs. Office is in bad area. Now after update pages seemed to flash . Did speed test at dslreports where I always go. Nows I am getting 123 kbs WOW!
Update. Went to freespeedtest and shows 151 kbs and before was about 24 kbs, of couse i always clear cache before each test. This rpl is great, I have called Sprint to complain about data speeds.

yeahhh, i updated the new PRL.. or did i?? It gave me an error message that it couldn't update the PRL, and reset.. ?

speeds before 450kbps
speeds now 750kbps
tested at dslreports 200kb 400kb file 1meg file...im happy...
guess they were workin on some tower upgrades with rev a and that cuased some outages across the east coast...

I don't see much difference between this (60711) and the 60611 I loaded up after updating to the 3.16 ROM. I'm getting roughly 770kbps down and about 77kbps up.

Didn't beleive it myself, but got 1.5mbps on the down and .4mbps on the up.
matt

can someone post the generator as i cannot find it on xda and ppc geeks is down. thanks

No speed increase for me, also windows live cab download still stalls for me...

Is this PRL only for Sprint? (it probably is..)
Also does this fix the 3.27 Radio data problem?

This update definitely increases my data speeds at home.
The getspc program is attached.

Verizon PRL update?
I tried putting in ##775# and send (green button) and this did not work on verizon. Is there an alternate way for verizon?

New ROM dropping internet connection

i know this has been a fairly well known issue but has anyone with much better comp skills than me been able to get an idea on what is causing the connection to time out?
I was looking through the registry and saw a few things but since I wouldn't have a clue for any commands I don't wanna try.
I have an extra Titan laying around but both were flashed to the new ROM and I can't get 2.17 downloaded again to load on to that one to compare the registry.
Any help at all? ? ?
Everyone seems to be focused on GPS which works just fine for me and no one cares to try the connection timeout problem.
Thanks
yea I realized that happens a lot
i havent had that issue suprisingly, but i use exchange throughout the day...
also does anyone have the 2.17 RUU they could email me (phillips.h @ gmail.com)....i can't get it from the htc site it won't complete a DL.
thanks
yea its a good thing, when im not by a power outlet all day but it sux bc at night i like to stay connected to aim, but it doesnt werk. I have a feeling that its not a bug just a way for sprint to limit the bandwidth that is used.
im having a connection problem as well, mine is a little different though. When i upgraded to the leaked rom, it put me back to prl 60610. i upgraded the prl back to 60611 and everything has been working good except one thing, at my home i get poor sprint evdo signal. I used to be able to roam on alltel's tower and get a full evdo signal. now for some reason on this rom i can only get 1x while roaming on alltel's towers, even with the same prl. I don't understand why that would happen. does anyone here know?

i had to manually update my prl and i havent had the dropped evdo that some people have been reporting. my brother has the same rom and prl but lives 3 hours away and has the evdo dropping problem, go figure. i think there are quite a few random problems with this rom. i really would like to get evdo roaming back...
News about the internet connection issues
So I don't know if this is the same as what you are experiencing, but I am able to connect to the network (it shows connected), but it won't load the pages. I went through a bunch of steps with Verizon support and got to the point where I could do what I just described. Initially, I kept getting either the error message saying that I couldnt connect for an unknown reason or username/password was wrong (even though I double checked those). I reverted back to the VZW ROM and everything works again. I'd really like to get the GPS and REV A action going, but I just can't seem to make it work. I followed the instructions everyone gave, too. If I make any progress I'll let you know.

Sprint PRL 60613

A little bit of self pimpage here... But a decent first post I think. Copied this from my post on ppcgeeks
PRL info
Attached is the Sprint 60613 PRL file
Here are the procedures I used to extract it
PRL Extract Procedures:
Not sure if this works on other phones. As long as it's htc ppc, I'm assuming it should...
YOU WILL NEED YOUR MSL FOR THIS PROCEDURE
NOTE: This was accomplished on XP 32bit for a Sprint Mogul/Titan. I am not responsible if you screw up your phone or pc with these procedures. This is what worked fine for me.
1. Install qpst - (if this is a restricted program please let me know - url can be yanked)
www.menekali.com/qpst-27-build-215-direct-download/
RS Mirror: http://rapidshare.com/files/123491631/QPST_2.7_B215.zip.html
2. Install HTC Diag Drivers
http://www.vzam.net/uploadedfiles/WModemDriverInstaller.exe
RS Mirror: http://rapidshare.com/files/123491632/WModemDriverInstaller.exe.html
3. Put Mogul in Diag mode (dial ##3424#) if on a custom rom it can also be listed as DMR or DM Router
4. Connect Mogul - it should autoload the drivers, you may have to point it to the correct directory though. Should be "C:\Program Files\HTC\WModem_Installer\WinXp"
5. Open QPST Configuration
6. Goto ports tab
7. Click "Add New Port".
8. Select the port listed as USB/QC Diagnostics (may vary, just don't use the data modem one)
9. Goto Start Clients Dropdown > Service Programming
10. Service Programming > Your phone should be selected - hit ok
11. Click "Read from Phone", Enter MSL, Fields should populate, don't worry about what tab you are one
12. Click "Save to File" - save to wherever you want, just remember where
The prl will be located in the directory you saved the file in.
It will be labled as <yourphoneesn>_sp.rl0
Enjoy!
Much thanks to osva of ppcgeeks for the hints at the original procedures.
thanks to jamesfelarca on XDA for the drivers for qpst
P.S. sent a copy to corolada - don't bother
***EDIT***
Thanks to bacspasm of ppcgeeks... If you get a roaming error or any kind of calling issues do a soft reset and give it some time, looks like this new prl might take a little bit to acquire the tower.

What you fail to realize is that 60711 is two revisions older than 60613. LOL
The last two numbers are the revision. "6" means phone and "7" means data card. So your 60711 is a very old data card PRL.
from my post over at SprintMogul.net and PPCGeeks...
I hate to sound like a stickler... but you do know their is a MUCH MUCH MUCH easier way of updating the PRL on your phone....
1) Simply take the PRL file for 60613 place it on the root of your MicroSD card...
2) Go to the dialer...
3) Input ##PRL# (no need for MSL if i remember correctly...)
4) Click brouse for the file...
5) update...
6) ???
7) PROFIT!!!!!!...... i mean your phone should have updated and restarted back on step 5... GLHF
I tried this, and it put me in roaming. I left it sitting for 6 hours this morning, and nothing...

Yeah, I had to do a little research on that one too. With my Sprint Mogul I'm getting alot better reception on where I am now on 60613 (I'm in Iowa, 1-2 bars more depending on area). I'm happy so far.
Here comes the posts that say I picked up new towers in my area.... LOL... I love the PRL misconceptions.

I was under the impressions that a PRL can also add a tower if one has been added in your area. Is this not so? I'm generally roaming so it can harder to tell for me. Why would my signal have gone up otherwise?

if your carrier acquired another carrier it is possible.
your phone associates to a SID and the PRL defines these SIDs.
when a new tower goes active within your SID, your phone immediately sees it. an updated list of SIDs (PRL) would have no effect in this case.
however if another SID in your area was previously considered roaming and is now considered home, it would be entirely possible for your phone to attach to towers not previously used, and your signal strength to improve.
edit: usually a carrier updates their PRL for these reasons:
removal or acquisition of another carrier or new area
change in roaming decision to reduce costs to the carrier
addition or removal of EvDO network subnets
I live in iPCS land and EvDO seems to be going up here (finally). I think it was 60612 that activated EvDO here. As iPCS is the last standing sprint affiliate, I wouldnt be surprised if the recent PRL updates are meant to effect iPCS customers (midwest, IL IN MI IA area)
Thanks DCD, that was very informative. It's nice to have someone with your level of knowledge chime in on the topic.
I've also heard that this latest PRL change does affect quite a bit in the Midwest. Experience would seem to point that way as well.
*sigh* I still can't wait for those east coast EVDO speeds though. I normally cap out at about 300kbps burst.
So you say 6 designates phone and 7 data cards. I'm currently running 60711 and it's been great as far as I can tell. I'll probably update to 613 and see if I notice any significant changes.
Question: Are there any pros or cons to running a 7 series prl as opposed to a 6 series? I know that noticeable changes could be user specific, but aside from that.. any techinical pros/cons to 7 vs. 6 or vice versa?

What dcd said is completely true.
The PRL only has two parts to it. It has an acquisition table and a system table.
The acquisition table is an indexed list of frequencies your phone can use to search for systems. Each entry in the acquisition table includes an index, network type, and associated channel blocks.
The system table is a list of system entries. Each entry includes an index from the acquisition table so it knows what frequencies to search on, a roaming indicator to let you know whether you're receiving service from a roaming partner, and a system (in our case, 1xRTT and 1xEVDO systems). Each 1xRTT system is identified by an SID/NID and each 1xEVDO system is identified by a subnet ID.
It's a misconception that the PRL has individual tower information. If your carrier puts up a new tower in your SID area, your phone automatically receives signal from it just as long as the SID in your PRL is considered home.
I gotcha, so in simple terms the signal increase was most likely due to a change to the path (possibly a tower that was roaming previously is no longer considered roaming due to a agreement change). Makes alot of sense too...
Thanks to both of you, GC14 and DCD. My knowledge of PRLs has just increased exponentially.

is this still the most up to date prl for sprint mogul?
http://www.corolada.com/prl/
This is a repost because of the lost threads. The most current for sprint is 60652 and is not listed in the above link.
All a sprint user has to do is call *2 and it will ask you to enter your phone number and it will automatically update for you and it may soft reset your phone.
I've had Sprint PRL 60651 for about three weeks now. I'm running Windows 7 x64 7068 and I'm having a hard time taking the PRL off my phones. Call *2 or ask chat agent for a PRL update.
*edit*
I have this PRL on a Blackberry 8330, Blackberry 8830, and my Mogul.
I posted 60651 and 60652 here. Look towards the end of the thread. I submitted them to Corolada PRL page over a week ago.

Finally Received 1.83 update today. Help, this is terrible

Ok, i have finally received the much anticipated 1.83 update. I did a final speedtest to kiss my slow speeds goodbye, and installed the new update. Before the update my speeds were 1.89 mbps down and .43 mbps up.. now after the upgrade i am getting .43 mbps down and .11 mbps up!!! what is going on? i have hard reset my phone, i have tested multiple times with an excellent signal and now my phone craaaawwwllsss. i cant even download anything from the app store because of my connection.
Has anyone had a similar issue, is there a way to go back to 1.57?
Thanks for listening to my rant.

I'm having a similar problem. After installing the update (via Motorola software, not OTA) I only have access to EDGE networks. Also, I have lost root. Would the old afterupdate.bat fix this?
Thanks
I'm having the same issue, speeds actually seem to have slowed down. Where are you located?

I updated y plugging my phone into my computer and updating through the motorola update software.
I think the downstream speeds are less after the update. Fastest speeds of all for me were using the Telstra radio from here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1052914
But this was before the update and while I am tempted to go back to the Telstra radio I am not flashing it at the current time. Mainly because I don't have an sbf with the .83 radio to go back to if there is an issue. So I would strongly advise against using the Telstra radio (post update) until one of the developers figures it out, confirms it is ok and provides an oem .83 update radio to fall back on.
At first I thought it was a time of day thing but I am convinced the downstream speeds are less. As to the other question in this thread I don't think afterupdate will work if you didn't run the beforeupdate on .57 before updating. You can go back to .26 and then to .57 but I don't think directly back to .57. This is what I recall seeing in vrs threads.
If you do a search you will see folks are using Gingerbreak to gain root after the update.
Imho
I'll try to use gingerbreak once I am in a position to backup my micro SD. I really hate having to restart my phone every time I need to use the SD for mass storage.
im not on the edge network, i dont think, my phone shows h+ and in my system settings i am now on hspa instead of hsdpa. im in the cincinnati market.
Do some real-world testing in addition to speedtest type stuff. Speedtest app has a lot of variance for me post-update. Down is 2-3.5mbit, up ranges from 400kbit-1.5mbit. The down is pretty much as it was before. The up is a good bit better than the 150kbit I had pre-upgrade but it almost looked throttled...initial burst then flat 400kbit after a few seconds.
I did test FTP and scp file uploads to a few different places and the upstream seemed more stable than speedtest suggests. Stayed above 1mbit and usually around 1.5mbit.

I did a spf flash yesterday and I have really good speeds at home. At work, it's another story. Since I only get 1 bar here in the office, the old radio performed better by having a consistent connection whereas the new update has is having a hard time maintaining the connection. Sucks since I use my the cell connection more at work than at home.
I believe ATT just released the 1.83 update OTA. I got a notification asking me to update. I'm holding back until I see some more information of what changes after the update.
I had this issue at start of beta. Was fixed after several reboots for me.

Were you talking about my message? If you were, just rebooting eventually fixed it?
yea, my real world test is that out in the open air, i cannot even log onto marketplace, it just gives me a network error. I can hit up a simple website, like a blog and after about 2 minuets i will show some activity. its dead in the water. after driving around a bit, there were some towers that gave me upwards of 4.5 mbps download before the update, now those towers are giving me about .95 download. im screwed.
Updated without problem
I used the today released 4.1.83 OTA. It worked fine and I don't see any differences with the previous version

Ok, my ATT guy just gave me one of the new "4g" compatible sim cards to try to see if it would help. Nope. Maybe slower, i took 4 tries to get Speedtest net to connect to server. finally i registered a .11 down and .04 up. Guess ill try to go back to 1.57 and see if that helps.

This happened to me too.. you don't need a '4g SIM' to get those speeds... I have my SIM from my old Fuze in my Atrix...
Try this, I did a battery pull on mine after 2 reboots and still connecting to Edge.. after the battery pull, back to *cough H+...... speed on upload went to 1.49Mbps...

My 3vo is getting max 126 download and even worse upload. Four people in my family have EVO 4g, they are consistently getting close to 1 mbs and similar uploads. Tried the proxy fix and everything. My speeds are typically better where I live, but are horrible this holiday weekend. Could it be the towers here don't like the 3vo, or should I exchange the phone?

Try 2 things before you take it to Sprint:
First, update your PRL and Profile (Under Menu-Options-System Updates) and then hard reset the phone. (Turn it off, pull battery, turn it back on) then test your speeds
If that doesn't work:
Try the MSL fix Here
Make sure to write down your defaults, as I hear Sprint doesn't like it when you mess with that stuff, and set it back if it doesn't help.
If all else fails, go to Sprint, whine or something. Maybe they'll give you an AirRave. I'm just not a fan of having other people fix my problems.
I get same DL as you, upload speed is like 18. Only getting 2-3 bars most of the time even though I pulled up the sprint map and there are supposedly towers all over the place here.

The over the air provisioning is not authenticating your 3g (only 1x speeds)
The fastest and easiest fix is to call sprint tech support and have then perform a HLR RELOAD or refresh on your data profile.
From there, you will go to settings then update profile from your evo
Note: if the hrl reload doesn't work, have tech support "REPROVOSION YOUR DATA PROFILE" (exact words)
Trust me. This works
What happened was when you dis the hands free activation, 3g was not authenticated correctly.
Hit the thanks button if I've helped you

I has the same problem all last week, it turns out (God, knows why) but my EVDO setting was CDMA and it had to be set to Automatic - Once I changed this, I was getting much better speeds.
called sprint. they did something and asked me to reset the phone after we hung up. same speeds afterward, 98 down, 70ish up. said they can't do anything else because i am calling from the phone i need service on. i don't have another phone to call from right now so i'll have to call back later and request the reloads mentioned above.
after resetting my phone, i did prl update, profile update and the proxy fix. still getting same speed results.

what speeds are we suppose to be seeing. I'm using speed test.net and my test numbers always change. on 3g i can test it 1 minute apart and get 1.16 Mbps down and then .72 Mbps down......should they be better?

Those are 3g speeds so sounds like authentication for you isn't an issue. Probably just the network where you are.
i would be satisfied with speeds in that range, even if they were sporadic. what i'm getting is .2 mbps down .03 mbps up (or less) consistently. just got .03 down, .11 down and .18 down, on my last three tests.
I am constantly getting 300-400kbps down and 50-150kbps up.
Tried ##786# and performed a data profile reset. Fixed it got great speeds now.

Evo stuck on 1X even after changing PRL

Hi, I'm on sprint with my evo 3d and I'm stuck with only 1X. I have read the posts about the bad PRLs and I have set mine back to 21081 with no luck. I read here cricketusers.com/sprint-htc-evo-4g/9588-evo-only-doing-1xrtt-no-3g-evdo-any-ideas.html that " I took a backup using QPST of my old EVO, and loaded that on to the new one, and I'm getting pings under 100, downs around 1000 kbps, ups around 500 kbps."
Anyone have any suggestions? Thank you.
get msl# type ##3282# type in your msl as your password click on edit mode click data profile hit menu and restore. then reboot. when it reboots let it do the hands free set up but cancel the prl update and firmware update. hit thanks it helps. that is what I did and it worked
hey shawnten, thanks for the reply. I have already tried that many times, but I will do it again right now and hope it helps. I actually haven't done that since I changed the prl, so I'll hope for the best. any further advice would be appreciated.
I would also like to mention that I keep getting error 67, unable to establish wireless data connection. doing hands free activation now taking forever
Still on 1x. Could someone share a qpst backup of their phone to me? Perhaps that will fix the problem like in the original post
i have the same problem any help is appreciated
This worked for me. Thanks
Seems like the 21081 prl is screwing up no, because I had the same problem earlier today. I switched to the 11115 prl and I have my 3g back but now its stuck on roaming
Turning GPS off is important!!
"FIRST, make sure you are using the stock dialer and not a third-party one as the menus will not work (as I discovered the hard way... ) Then...
Turn off your GPS. Dial ##3282#, and select Edit. Enter your MSL, then go to Data Profile. Push the menu button, then tap on Restore. Push OK to reboot. Allow the phone to go through hands-free activation, but WATCH YOUR PHONE CAREFULLY AND PRESS CANCEL WHEN IT BEGINS TO UPDATE PRL."
Compliments of CarrieK.
Tried 3 or 4 prls, followed all the steps and still 1X I believe the 4g works but I'm not in a 4g area anymore so I can't check. Anyone else...?
Try ##3282#,edit,enter msl,EVDO,preferred mode- Automatic,menu, commit modifications,ok. See if that helps.

Did you even read my post!?
I have factory reset my phone like 7 times and done all of this and still on 1x.. I know 3g works fine on my evo 4g cause I'm using it now. Dunno what the problem is... the settings on my phone are fine.. can someone post a QPST backup of theirs?
This happened to me before too. What I did was turn off the gps. Update the profile. Update the prl. Then goto the dialer and do the ##DATA#. EDIT. Enter MSL. DATA PROFILE. then MENU key RESTORE. It will confirm then restart if it doesn't restart then POWER MENU. RESTART. Wait for the Hands Free Activation to come up after the restart. Let it activate then CANCEL THE PRL UPDATE AND THE FIRMWARE UPDATE...
Hope this works for you. I've gotten stuck at 1x about 3+ times and this always worked for me.

EDIT: Seeing your previous post about those download speeds makes me think your 3g is working fine. Get the app Network Signal Info and see if that tells you your on 1x.
Why is it that nobody can read my posts? Those are not MY speeds. I have netmonitor and I know I'm on 1xrtt. My d/l speed is about 30 kb/s. I'll try doing what you posted again but I have done it at least 12 times.
another thing you can try which is one step different but may help is doing the data profile restore and and let it do the profile update then follow thw rest of the steps. that's the only thing i can think of other than it being something on sprints end, they may have to reset something.

For what it is worth, this worked on my EVO 4G that had the same problem.

I used to have the same problem. I did the exact same thing, and the problem is resolved.

I've seen people's phones get stuck in cdma only (1x) mode, it's just an internal setting that needs to be changed.
It was fixed with this app, however I don't think it works with the 3D:

I can probably look around more tonight for something that will work with the 3D, I just can't remember off the top of my head.
Edit: probably the same solution as the post above mine.
This happens to my 3d when I first started messing with my prls I followed those directions in the op of the post I liked above and never have had a problem.
