Believe it or not the 11115 is not the business PRL for the EVO 3D. This is for the 1900 mhz devices only. EVO 3D and a few other devices have special PRL's with the codes 20XXX. Recently it was 20183 or something like that. There is a reason why the EVO 3D has a different PRL than all the older Sprint devices, and it's because it has been updated to include 800 and 1900 mhz towers.
The business PRL is slightly different, it is 21XXX. EVO 3D's do not get the 11115, instead they get the 21XXX for corporate. Does anyone have this PRL and be willing to share it? I want to do some testing on the Epic 4G Touch.
Thanks!

Im the source. I'm whosdaman.
Actually go to your local sprint dealer and ask to see their evo 3d device and check the PRL on it. The PRLs on the demo devices are the corporate ones.

Excellent find. Unfortunately it's the 21081 and not 21083, but it'll do for now. If you do find a way to get the 21083 from your phone let me know! Thanks
Well now that I'm looking into it more it seems like 21083 is the default for EVO 3D. I guess I need to go check what is the corporate PRL on the EVO 3D is again. I know for a fact it isn't 11115 though.
11115 might not be the official one for the 3d but it works just the same as it did on the EVO 4g. It gets me 3g roaming when I force roam when needed. I have a corporate acct and got 11115 on the EVO but I never got anything other than the 2 prls you listed.

Right but for non network vision devices.
Evo 3d has its own 11115 PRL
The 20xxx or 21xxx is the corporate PRL I'm pretty sure.
Of course the 11115 will work with the evo 3d

21083 IS NOT a corporate prl. it is latest prl regular users get when doing a prl update. you want proof of this, find a friend with a 3d and have him update the prl for you. it was either stay 21083 or change to it depending on the area but most everyone will.

PRL 12117
I have a company-provided Evo3D and my PRL shows 12117. I always figured that was a corporate PRL. I have tried PRLs 21081, 21083, 11115 and 00001 and none gave me better results than 12117 although even that PRL is crappy here in South Florida...

I been using 11115 lately but i get about 500kbps it would be great if i could get up to 1mb. Also for some reason i cant roam if it does its to some ****ty tower that gives me 50kps and one bar. Anyone had good experience with other prl around Chicago

For kicks, I used the stock PRL for the EVO LTE (24003) on to my Photon. Wow my data flies with it hovering around 1600kbps - 2300kbps down and 500kbps up. I attached the PRL file below with some screen shots. the first on is my status screen showing the PRL version. The second is my Sprint 3g speed. The last is my roaming. Feel free to try it at your own discretion and I'm not responsible if anything good or bad happens to your device.
Here are instructions to manually update your PRL. You'll need to be on a blur based rom and have your phone's MSL.

Update. A friend let me update their E4GT with this PRL and their phone could not connect to a Wimax tower. My guess that this PRL is CDMA and LTE only with not Wimax tower info. We were able to fix this by flashing another PRL.

A manual update should take it to the current Sprint PRL for your area.
Just flashed it and well my speeds are the same...

You're still on 3G when using this PRL. What is adds it the tower info for the limited test towers for Network Vision and Sprint LTE.

If you still have service just do as Kevets suggested. (menu>settings>about phone>system update) If not you'll have to flash a previous PRL version that you know was working or RDS to stock.
Here's a thread where you can download most of the Sprint PRLs.

Nothing really special about this PRL. It just has the typical 800mhz scans for Chicago. Nothing else real special.
The wimax chipset does not even use a PRL. This PRL is for EV and 1X only.

Its called QoS...I was expected something like this...wimax was never the issue ...it was the overall sprint bandwidth ...so now with lte coming how do hide that lte vs wimax was never the issue...it was the network behind it?...you set a network QoS to give most of the bandwidth to the lte devices and shortchange the non lte...even if you not using lte...the network will put the new stars of sprint lineup to the head of the line to make the look faster....wonder why you see all the reports of ever slower g3 on sprint for the other phones?...you just lower in the qos pecking order..you get what left of the bandwidth...you flying standby..the new first class phone fly first class on the backside of the network even if the local phone link to the network is just 3g

Yep, same here.
Why not try the new PRL before rolling it back?
Its not like a software update. Its not going to hurt your phone or prevent you from root/s-off. Sometimes a PRL upgrade can be a good thing.

See the other PRL thread for more details, but the short version is that I'm seeing the best speeds on the PRL my phone was shipped with. (PRL 24003). I've tried all of the PRL versions I've seen come through on the phone and tested each one.

25004 is a latest one but so is 24004.

Corporate ones give better data speed on roaming is why I am wondering.
25004 here on a personal line as well.
I'm almost positive I've been on 25004 for awhile. I don't remember seeing or doing a prl update.

MIne changed the other night to the 25004 and now i hardly get a data connection to top off my already horrendous 1 bar/roaming all the time crap signal at home
Mine tanked pretty hard on 25004, down to like 14kbps from 700-800 downloads, my upload hasn't really changed.
I've been having issues all day with sms and mms, also been dropping to 1x and so I looked and my PRL is 25002..
Did a prl update and I'm back to 25004.. really weird. Only thing ive done is last night I ran the mod to remove the HTC disclaimer on boot up screen.

I wanted to know what prl your phone is using??
I haven't seen the new evo to check it out.
I live in an area where sprint only has 1x so I use the 11115 prl and roam control to get 3g. I'm hoping that there is no change in prl's for this phone.

I do tech support/customer service for Sprint. PRL stands for preferred roaming list. It will seldom help coverage. Here's an example of what it does. Let's say you have a Verizon tower at the end of your street. If for some reason, this particular area, at the end of your street is so high in traffic that Sprint wants to pay Verizon to add their signal to that tower, then that will result in a situation where instead of roaming, you have Sprint signal. A PRL update is intended to save Sprint money.
Regarding the LTE rollout; I hear about it every day. The LTE rollout isn't going to be done simply by buying into Verizon's towers. So, with that, a PRL update is going to help you get LTE.
