With the change from Froyo to GB, we had to flash the Froyo EPST apk to get those codes to work. Not sure if that will work with ICS since it's such a big change from GB.
Just tried installing the ESPT-2.1 apk & got nothing.
I backed up & removed the ICS' ESPT before trying it.

PRL
im having the same issue. i updated from meanrom gb today to meanrom ics. my prl carried over from before but i cant manually change it using the ##775# code. i also tried flashing epst 2.1 but it didnt work for me either
If QPST works, can't you just use that?
Lengthier process that requires a computer, but it's either that or restoring to a GB rom and doing it.
Question....here at work i only get roaming for my phone on ics. Which prl for roaming would be good for me here....everyone else here uses verizon and they get good 3g here. Thanks in advance.
i use the 00001 prl for verizon when im getting bad sprint reception but i usually use the sprint corporate prl (22085). we could use qpst but i like to be able to switch between the 2 depending on how my sprint reception is because i really dont wanna get booted from my contract

Should I switch my Preferred Mode from CDMA Only to Automatic? I notice download and upload speeds were alot more when I did switch to Automatic, but keep getting a FC on com.android.phone process? Had to Flash a new rom to get rid of the issue.
Really want the speeds back but dont want the A FC com.android.phone process.
Rom: CleanROM 2.1 (2.3.4 deoxed)
Any thoughts on CDMA ONLY vs Automatic?
I've done both and haven't seen a difference. I think all peoples phones may vary. I did a speed test on both and maybe its my area or phone but got nothing significant.

Putting the phone in Sprint only makes the phone inky look for Sprint towers. The only reason, really, to out Tue phone into automatic is if you know you are going to be roaming.
Sent from my PG86100 using xda premium
leave it in automatic also i would download roam control in the market because u can force roam anytime u want just in case ur signal with sprint is weak
No have no clue but i really wuld like to get my.hands on the deodexd version of the new 2.3.4 (2.08)ota update if u culd please post me a link

I've noticed since yesterday that my phone stays in CDMA only mode, no matter how many times I change it to Automatic, it doesn't stick.........any suggestions to change to Automatic and it stay?
is it a verizon prl or is it ok. I know that 11111 is a verizon. been running 11115 for a couple of days with good results but I dont want sprint to cancel me..
11115 is fine. It is a Sprint prl. Mostly given out to only some business accounts. But you won't have to worry about them saying anything. For more info, look at XsMagical's thread here.

Hello,
I was reading about PRL here and on Magical post and I now have a question, which PRL do you think works best for a daily use?
Thank you!
11115 has been great for me for daily use.
Yeah 11115 rocks in combination with roam control
Sent from my PG86100 using Tapatalk
I have been using 11115 for about 2 weeks and it is the best one I have used since my OG evo had the business PRL on it. I love being able to roam in 3G
How do I change it?

Okay so when I downloaded the prl .zip and placed it and extract it unto the SD card. Then dialed ##775# then msl then update prl then selected the prl I downloaded. Then pressed menu and commit then it was successful then it said wait 10 seconds. Do I reboot my phone? Cause I've tried waiting and rebooting and its doesn't seem to give me better reception. Any suggestions? Thanks.

Quick question - If I flash this then use boot manager to run something else, will it keep the PRL that I flashed?

Yes. It will go to the one which Sprint has designated for your area. If you wanted to go back, you would have to do the process all over again.
First of all I am unrooted. I downloaded the zip file for 11115 but when I type ##775# I don't get the password field to show up it just clears the dialer. Any ideas?

Here you go should be good after installing this apk.
strange thing........
I changed my prl to this and it works great at my house ( I live in Virginia) but the family and I went out to eat and my reception was terrible. We only went about 10 miles away and with the old prl I got decent 3g signal but with this prl my 3g went to 1X and when I got back home it was again moving faster than ever again.
Okay I installed that and I renamed the 11115.zip to 11115.prl and used ##775# to update. Commit changes it said successful so I rebooted and I'm still on 22081 not 11115. I tried twice. What did I forget to do?

You don't have to rename it just extract the zip to your SD card.

Hey guys. I've had my EVO for a while and I've been flashing roms like a fiend, recently I've been stuck on 1x for a few days now. I switched to a stock based ROM and updated all my stuff. Called sprint and they reset my connection and its still on 1x. They want me to go into a store because they think its the phone. Any last minute ideas? Should I s-on or anything. Im also worried about them switching out the phones and me being able to root the new one.
Sent from my PG86100 using Tapatalk
in dialer dial ##DATA# click edit mode enter you msl click data profile then hit the settings(?) button on the bottom of phone click restore reboot phone let it do its thing see if that helps
And if you do end up bringing it in, normally a fresh flash of a completly stock ROM will work, as long as you don't have a custom splash screen they shouldn't notice s-off.
They would try to do an update which will include 1.5 bootloader.( I've seen someone who did this and ended up with 1.5 boot, with s-off as a result, but who knows what was done to it in the store)
Go with the instructions above my post, worth a shot..

Ok, that makes me feel a little better because I've tried it a couple times and the second time I let go for about 30 mins with it being stuck on the "Contacting Network" message and nothing! But if it finally took after some tries for you, I'll keep trying!

Haha don't use sprint zone, its archaic and isn't properly updated, use the about phone tab to check software and carrier versions. But to answers your question, a PRL (Preferred Roaming List) update is carrier wide. When towers are updated or tweaked they roll out a PRL update, normally they do a couple towers and then roll out a update, or else there would be a new PRL update every day! Most PRL updates come from upgrades, like the transition from CDMA to CDMA LTE towers. Even though you prolly won't see much effect from the update in your area, if you ever traveled to a 4g area without the update your phone wouldn't work efficiently, so everyone gets the update. PRL updates also come from tower performance tweaks aswell.

Thanks for the heads up about Sprint Zone and the info about PRL updates. I assumed it had something to do with the network but wasn't exactly sure. I've gotten messages from Sprint recently talking about "A new Network is coming" so that would make sense and I know they've also done some tower upgrades in my area recently.
On another note, is anyone else having issues with doing a PRL update? It has still yet to work and continues to just hang on "Contacting Network" message. When it hangs on that message it totally renders my device useless and I have to power down (or pull the battery).

The messages about the new network are pertaining to Network Vision, sprint is merging all their technologies 3G/4GLTE/WiMax(where available) together into a more efficient spectrum and coverage overlap! Its actually quite an impressive system! At least the PowerPoint was lol, hoping that they deliver what they promise!

I hope they deliver too because it sounds promising. I can't complain too much tho, I get fairly good service most everywhere I go in my area. 4G (WiMax) is pretty limited but I get it where I work and surrounding areas.
Still have yet to have any luck as far as a PRL update goes tho. Oh we'll I guess, I'll try every now and then and if it happens it happens...

No, I'm pretty sure you have to flash stock to update, then flash back to whatever custom ROM you're using.
Easiest way is to have a nandroid of stock, take a nandroid of what you're using, flash the stock, update via "about phone," then restore your custom nandroid.

Or to get you back where you were just update your prl in the settings menu. That will atleast get you back on to a functioning prl. Personally I run the corporate prls, currently 11115 but that's just my preference. There are newer ones.
