I messed around with the 0001.prl and it was adviced with it to change the mode using some code in the dialer like *#*#89983## something im not sure, well i messed it up. I get x service under sprint and only 1X roaming. I need help on restoring the settings I changed.
The 00001 PRL shouldn't be used anymore as Sprint is canceling people's service because of it. There are several threads in the general section that should be able to help you update to the latest PRLs though.

My prl is not the problem..im on 24006 now, i need to restore my regular service.
The more information you can post about what you did or which guide you followed the easier it will be to help you, but from what you've said so far it sounds like you changed the preferred network.
If so you should be able to fix it by dialing *#*#4636#*#* -> Select 'Phone Information' -> 'Set prefered network type:' to CDMA + LTE/EvDo auto

i cant even remember what it was, and the thread I got it from Im pretty sure was deleted.
You messed up the auto frequency. I did it before and there is a way to fix it but I do not remember how.
You can try ##SCRTN#
That resets and reconfigures all network related settings. You'll just need to know your MSL.

Not to be confused with ##RTN# which hard resets a phone.

By the way, sprints policy is to repair a rooted phone just as if it were not rooted. If any employee ever tries to argue about that tell them to check their methods and procedures.

There is no way to do that without taking out 3g option. (settings/more settings/mobile networks/network mode)

from a stock rom that is.
I have a strange issue with my phone. Everything is working great except that I have to enable "Overseas roaming" to be able to get the network working. The phone obviously thinks it's still in China and not in Sweden. Anyone else seen this?
...
Nope, no problems.

Same for me. I have to enable it to get any service.
Can you edit the region code in build.prop? Obviously you would need to be rooted. Mine thinks I have a U.S phone in England. So far I haven't had to enable roaming to use data. Not sure why. I did use the app More Locales to create a new language region on my phone though
According to this post at miui.com this could be due to our operator being a so called MVNO, I'm going to try the WSM tools suggested in the post.

One of my SIMs runs on a MVNO and I don't need to enable roaming to use data. No idea why, or if that helps your investigations.
I would love to know how to solve the problem on national roaming. I have had this issue with my previous phones as well. Alcatel one touch flash, mlais m52, and now the redmi note 2.
---------- Post added at 08:03 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:58 PM ----------
The mismatch comes from your network identifier that is in your simcard as compared to the network that you are connected to. Your country code is the same but since you are on an MVNO, the network provider code is different. Android is fooled to think that you are roaming. For calls and sms, roaming gets enabled automatically. But you need to enable data roaming to get data connection working.
---------- Post added at 08:10 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:03 PM ----------
The national roaming fix as far as i know does away with comparing the network id between simcard and the connected network. As long as your simcard and the network provider have the same country id, then the roaming flag will not be enabled.
For the fix to work, i believe you need a rooted phone or a custom rom. Sadly, i havent seen that for the redmi note 2.
Attempt to find a way to carrier unlock the LG Tribute HD (LG LS676) without having root access.
One consideration, GCPro Key might operate by generating a 'pseudo key' which tricks the phone into believing the system has been unlocked by the carrier. This is deployed to the phone via adb. If this is the case, it would not require root.
Second consideration, begging and pleading with Sprint to perform OTA unlocks. This doesn't seem likely.
So, just as an update, I was able to get the phone to recognize a FreedomPop global sim, but without being able to edit the APN settings, it is unusable.
Have you tried to change the APN by dialing ##3282# to get the Data settings menu? It requires entering the MSL to edit.
I looked at the APN settings, but even with the MSL given to me by Ting it didn't seem to want to let me edit any.
I just unlocked my friend's with gsmzambia. Everything working perfectly.
this gsmzambia is bot

How did you manage to get it accept non-Sprint SIM?

It was activated on Ting, and they were able to perform an International SIM unlock.
Since APN's cannot be edited, it isn't worth very much, though
Ok

Your feedback is valuable to us, thanks
Why can't anyone edit apn settings? I have a **** boost mobile LG tribute had (LS 676), and boost provided me my msl code, so I CAN edit apn settings. What kind of screenshots can I post to help? If love to have root on this device.... Not a bad daily driver, but root for make it that much better. Thanks in advance for any help you can provide... And come on, gotta give it up to the devs, who have lost so much sleep...and probably a little hair, working on this!?
Hope this helps in some way?

What is the "this" you're referring to? I have a Tribute HD that was international unlocked by Ting. I have the MSL but ##3282# only displays APNs, can't edit them. How did you manage to edit them? Can you post a quick step by step process?
Lgls676
Use same method as g5 on youtude download hidden menu i believe its not install all ready tryed everything else same way to unlock hope it helps to gain root other then that check oma setting ##66236# msl required

I did - I can see the menus and settings and set LTE etc - but APNs are read-only. You can open to see but can't create any.

Can you post a screenshot of the APN settings Add/Edit view as a starter? I have MSL code too but unable to add/edit APN.
It took me a bit of time to figure out what is being suggested above related to following the G5 procedure to unlock the Tribute HD, so I am posting here to make it easier for everyone else trying to unlock this device.
For starters, you don't need the Service Programming Code (SPC), you don't need it rooted, nor do you need to have it internationally unlocked by a Sprint MVNO -- I unlocked two, and the second was pretty much straight out of the box (the first was internationally unlocked first).
Follow the instructions here for the G5 -- Same Hidden Menu app APK and same first 8 steps up to the point where you reboot and are about to add the new APN:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/sprint-lg-g5/how-to/guide-gsm-unlock-sprint-lg-g5-t3574819
Then, to add the new APN, which is where I struggled to find the solution and the "trick" to creating the new APN was recently posted towards the end of the G5 thread. To create the APN, use the Hidden Menu app and do the following:
1) Select IOT (GDG2),
2) Select LTE Setting
3) Select APN Setting
4) Now press and hold the multi-function key (the little square task-switcher on the lower right of the screen) and select NEW APN
5) Fill in at least the following 3 fields:
NAME -- Call it anything you want
APN -- Enter the APN for your carrier
APN Type -- Enter "default,dun" (without the quotes).
Note: If you have other APN entries that you know, please add them too -- the above 3 items will get at least the web working (and perhaps hotspot), but you may need additional carrier-specific settings for SMS/MMS/etc..
When you are finished entering the APN entries, press and hold the multifunction (little square) key again and select SAVE.
Make sure your new APN has the radio button selected on the right side of the screen, and then back your way out to the main menu and close the Hidden Menu app. Close the Hidden Menu app with the task switcher.
Your device should now show either 3G or LTE for your GSM-based carrier. The web should work, as should calling (admittedly I used FreedomPop SIMs for my testing so I was only able to test 3G with the Global SIM and LTE with the AT&T LTE SIM, but I didn't test calling/texting/MMS with a US-based SIM myself). If something isn't working, I'll borrow a T-Mo postpaid SIM from another phone and try to provide further assistance.
Kudos and thanks to all of those who figured out the G5 -- I am merely outlining the steps they developed here for the Tribute HD.
