Does anyone know anything about this prl? I've been using it for about a month, and get very good data speeds using it. But, I don't know anything about it, and I don't wanna get in any trouble over it. Could someone please enlighten me?

That is a Verizon PRL, and while you won't incurr any additional charges from Sprint for using it, you could end up having your contract terminated.

Okay, I can see that if I roam a lot, but my phone is never in roam. So, if i never roam, do you think I will still have problems using the prl 000001?

Yep, your phone is on Verizon full time so according to your device your not roaming, however according to Sprint they see you using a different tower then they brings out the big guns and cancel you like a bad tv show, you might get by for a month or two then you will get the letter of doom.... My advice go to a different prl.....
Sent from my clean sharp shooter
I spoke with retentions today and they told me that you have to be roaming at least 80% of your bill for a couple of months to get a termination letter. I suggest just using it when u need it. If it is in your house get an airave.

You can try to aruge with them that the numbers you called were indeed mobile.phone numbers and pretend you weren't ever roaming and try to do this perhaps at a sprint store

I would say, go back to the dopey prl we're using.

Do be warned about using custom PRL's as Sprint is known to terminate your service for incurring significant roaming charges.

Maybe you can purchase overage relief minutes and get it back dated. Call retentions.

I'm surprised those prl threads are even allowed here as they are basically instructions to steal service/cost sprint tons of charges. And people wonder why the plan prices are going up?

It isn't really stealing it at all, it just forces our devices to roam on to Verizon towers which free roaming is part of our plans. The Plans are rising due to the demand of users increasing year after year and greedy companies who are convinced we NEED them. they require more money for better upgrades in service but sadly sprint seems to lack keeping up with their overhauled network.

Does anyone know if you can still get the Evo 3d using verizon coverage? I have no service at my job with sprint and wanted to know if this is still possible. Thanks

I dont think there is .. I haven't seen anything like it.. I dont think the phone can be compatible with Verizon.
Sorry
There is a force roam mod floating around here somewhere. You'd better be careful playing with stuff though, Sprint is getting pretty gung ho about offing contracts for too much data roaming.

You can force your phone to roam by using a verizon PRL but Sprint will drop you after awhile

2nd both the airave and force roam app.
I would laugh if Sprint dropped me for roaming as I have 8 lines on my account plus the airave and have been with Sprint for over 10 years. (Ask the big three how laying off their customers is working out for them)
Try to make sure that you do not pay for the airave and make all the other Sprinters at work at least take you to lunch before you let them use it.

Like stated earlier, using the 00001 Verizon prl constantly is a bad idea if you want to stay with sprint.

The 1115 PRL is a Sprint PRL.
The only VZW PRL we can use on our phones is 0001.
Ok thanks

let's get the number of digits correct:
11115 - sprint prl

Not for PRLs
Sent from my MB855 using xda premium
Mine has the latest updated - but EVERY time I check in the "Help" section of sprint zone it keeps telling me there is a profile or prl update needed.. even after I update everything. Any clue as to why? Ever since I received this phone I've had data connection and mobile IP registration response errors..
anyone else have this issue ?? I'm currently having Sprint check the tower (who knows if they actually will..) due to slow/almost nonexistent data service.
So I had been insanely bad data speeds. Changed my prl and now look I was getting 140 max now I'm getting well take a look. Very happy now. Except my upload speed fluctuate a lot, is that normal?

ha what PRL did you change to?.....if its one of the VZ based ones on the forum here just be careful as Sprint will not think twice to hit you with a little letter when you go over the roaming allotment...
Sprint's data speeds are so crappy, don't expect you speed tests to be similar. And upload speeds are usually never as high as download.
And yes, be careful if you flashed a Verizon PRL not to go over 300mb a month.

You should always know exactly what your flashing and adding into your device before doing so btw, so you should know exactly what PRL you have to be honest...
I yep it is for Sprint corporate. And I understand that I was just trying to give insight to those in my area that my data speeds went up. My apologies for not researching enough. Moderators please close thread

Sprint will give you a nice fat boot for Christmas if you try to force roaming.

You would need to flash a Verizon prl and like its been mentioned, not a good idea. Sprint throttles first, send a polite warning and then terminate if you continue to roam.
I was more talking a setting I'm in PA hunting and I know Verizon gets good service here. If we're supposed to be roaming on Verizon, why do I get nothing?

Like he said, you'll need to manually install a Verizon prl to do it But in all seriousness, I wouldn't try it... Once upon a time I tried a mod to force Verizon roaming on my old HTC Hero and promptly got a letter from Sprint less than a week later. It's just not a smart thing to do.
