So, they are currently rolling out 800 mhz and LTE in my area, From what I understand the PRL makes no difference other than to look for roaming and certain bands. So an old PRL that does not have LTE in my area is bad. I have also come across a later corprate PRL to allow verizon roming.
I have the latest avatar rom and rooted. I am still S-on and I have changed ro.build.type to dev. Debugging is also on. I have downloaded the latest PRL and ##778# does not work. In fact I can not find a single ## code that works. Am I screwed? Do I need to go back to stock???
You need to be on a Sense ROM to update your PRL or use those dialer commands.
Also keep in mind that you cannot roam on another 4G network.

Also I think AOSP kills the dialer commands too. I tried to update my PRL on CM10 and it just kept trying to dial the number rather than giving me the update menu. Just an FYI.

This coming from a guy that seems to follow my posts around just to argue...
You try installing the latest CM10.1 rom and follow the plethora of different prl update threads on here and see if it works for you. If you know a trick to it great, that is why I am asking, But showing up just to make snide comments is stupid.
Follow the directions in this thread to manually change your PRL while on a Sense ROM. If you simply want the latest Sprint PRL for your area, make a Nandroid backup of your current setup, then flash a Sense ROM and update your PRL from the settings menu. After it's updated you can restore your backup.

Thank you.
I did a hybrid of the two.
I had to flash a sense rom and it still would not use the update PRL.
I then used ## codes to enable modem mode and used CDMA workshop to flash the corporate rom!
If I could only find a way to enable modem/ dev mode on my Avatar rom I would be set.
Thank you to all that provided constructive responses.

After flashing a Sense rom you must edit the build.prop so that ro.build.type = dev. Reboot then try ##778# and you will have the option to change prl. I've done it on meanbean, viper, operation jellybean, and the Sense 5 port. All with success. Just some future info.

I'm trying to get the latest Verizon PRL so I have the best shot of getting 4G on the current pre-alpha CM7 build. Search has yielded no way of forcing a PRL update, though. Most threads say just wait for it. Anyone know of an alternative method?
Reboot. That's the only way. U can't dial #228 or whatever its different. Reasons? It has a similar card its a lot different then phone that don't have sim cards. :/

In a Sense-based ROM open the dialer, enter ##778#, then hit dial. Choose view mode in the menu that comes up, then scroll down to PRL and click that. Your current PRL will be listed at the top.

Go to the dialer and hit ##3282#, put in your msl, click on EVDO --> hit preferred mode --> change from CDMA only to automatic if different. Commit changes and reboot.

Recommit. Maybe it could be a glitch. We'll keep searching for other solutions in the meantime. Another ROM maybe?
What prl are you on? I know you said you downgraded, but maybe it didn't take? The latest prl sent out by Sprint is causing this issue for everyone.
Wat prl r u currently on? If its 58080 or somethin its a 1xrtt prl that is blocking ur 3g. U need to revert back to 21080. Search the 3d forum for instructions. Sprint pushed out a bad prl! Still havent fixed it. This works for unrooted phones as well.

Sent from my PG86100 using XDA App
For starters it has to be a Sense rom. And if you're on a sense rom, you will need to make sure that that epst is installed. (Most have them) If it doesn't, you can find it floating around here somewhere.

The old epst is cool for PRL changing, but crashes when you try and edit WiMAX settings. I may remove it from my ROM.

I am completely stumped here. Ive been on slimbean cm10.1 Rom for a while and recently flashed viper Rom 3.1.6 and since than, all the incoming calls are going straight to voicemail without a single ring. I've tried four different sense roms and can't figure out the issue.
Going back to cm10.1 Rom fixes the issue. Can someone please help me

Try updating your profile on a Sense ROM. Other than that you might have to go into diagnostic mode and play with the settings there.
Sent from my EVO using xda premium
Is there a particular setting I should be looking at in the diagnostics mode? Also, I can get into that mode by dialing ##3282# correct?

Diagnostic mode (##DIAG#) is for programs like qpst, DFS, and cdma workshop. There are a lot settings in there that unless you know what you are doing, and are familiar with the program, I wouldn't mess with.
You could try...
##data# (3282) select edit and enter msl
Menu>restore
After it reboots your phone may even try to re provision... Let go through the menus but you can cancel the firmware update.
Make sure to update your profile afterwards.
If this doesn't work you may have to do a hard reset (probably best anyways) but you want to make sure that you do a proper backup. Check the link in my sig, there is faq section at the bottom of post 1 that will assist you. :thumbup::thumbup:

Thanks for that suggestion. I followed you guide and performed each step, even the last step of hard reset and I still can't take calls. I just don't understand why sense rom would prevent taking phone calls while CM10.1 works without any issues.

I would say the next step is to flash a sense rom and call Sprint from another #. Sometimes they give you a number to call to provision. If they can't help you, you will have to take it in.

Hello ladies and gentlemen. First and foremost I would like to say that XDA is a wonderful community of which I am very pleased to finally be taking a part of. Since my very first Samsung Transform that I had back in 2010, to my Current HTC Ego 4g LTE I have used XDA and the resources that are provided here for all of my Android related questions. For that I want to thank XDA for having such a wonderful community and hope that things continue to devolp fruitfully for everyone.
Now onto the subject of my first post, of which I hope is appropriate in every manner.
I am running Cyanogenmod v 10.0 on my HTC Evo 4g LTE, TWRP recovery, S-on, Hboot v unknown currently.
Upon installing Cyanogenmod v 10.0 after much struggle I noticed that the 4g does not work. I checked my PRL and noticed that I am running 25015. So I began trying to find a method to update my PRL in hopes that this would allow the 4g to begin working. I have tried many different ways that I have found throughout XDA and Cyanogenmod forums to no avail. No dial codes work. Period. Please do not suggest a dial code because I have already gone through and tried every prominent variation. The next thing I began trying was connectingy phone to the computer and using the CDMA editor program(I cannot remember the name currently). The problem I ran into with this was entering DIAG mode. Again the dial code does not work due to the non Sense ROM. I have tried many variations of the Echo > 1 command but I cannot locate a DIAG file that this command would apply to. I have found a qct_ file but it is corrupt.
If anyone has found a method to put the phone into DIAG mode, or update the PRL using a different method that I have not mentioned your assistance would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
I will update this post with more specific information on what I have tried when I have access to a desktop terminal.
You could make a backup, revert back to a sense Rom, update the PRL, then restore the backup.

^Easiest way to do it. It's always good to keep a Sense backup for updating profile and PRL, and for the occasional GPS fix.

I would like to figure out how to do so without flashing a new sense ROM. Until I get S-off I have to flash the boot.IMG if I understand this correctly. I had to do that when I flashed Cyanogenmod the first time.

Even so, I think it would be good to find a direct method to update the PRL and Profile in Cyanogenmod as opposed to simply working around it. That's no fun. I have beem trying to hunt down the file to change but to little success.

Is your firmware up to date? Only reason I ask is because your PRL is up to date and won't help you with your lack of 4G LTE.

You might need to call sprint and have them reprovision your phone, for that you probably need to be on a sense rom, flash meanbean which has a s-on installer then restore your cm nandroid... Good luck! I don't think there's other way to do what you need in aosp... :banghead:
