I was just about to post this........you beat me to it.

this might sound weird but, i know prl is preferred roaming location(and it picks up diff towers etc), but what is pri? i figured id ask since we were already talking about it. What is pri for and prl and functions? Can someone hit me with a link lol.

this is why im debating if it's worth keeping cm7. id like to be able to update the profile, utilize phone codes for data resets and update my prl's. i do not see why the cm team cannot get these to work, i mean they got 4g & hdmi.
at least give us a prl that we can flash, using qpst is too time consuming, so is flashing sense to do it.

It's possible to flash a PRL update but someone has to pull it from their phone first. There was a flashable version of the last PRL linked in this thread.

If you have issues with something this insignificant, you might wanna get out more. It took a grand total of 10 seconds and didn't impact anything.

I'm usually eager to get PRLs which are new, actually, but yeah thanks for being concerned about my social life.
I just think it's stupid to push them, because if people's phones are working acceptably with reception they shouldn't be forced to "upgrade"--it wouldn't take you long to find folks who report better results with older PRLs on here, and not everyone will be able to find out how to manually roll back to an older one and succeed.

99.9% of users don't even know what PRLs are, so they have to be pushed, or else those people would be using outdated PRLs. And therein lies a real safety concern.
52341, 52299, 58008 and Verizon Alltel Hybrid PRL.zip are all new PRL's.
These are for testing.
For all the babies out there who don't like my posts, get a life and go join another forum! Most members would like to have the information out there to research and test. I love this forum and have learned alot from it. Although I've noticed you can't give a little credit to people without them still bitc**** about not getting all of it so none will be given any more.
Anyway, enough of my ranting.
Techknowfile's PRL's are quite old now. They still work, but will not have the most up-to date towers and channels.
I live in eastern ohio and use the 52341.prl.
Step #1: Download and unzip
Step #2: Follow Techknowfile's instructions for flashing. Here is his thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=696073
Step #3: Test and Enjoy!
Step #4: Give me some Love
The 5XXXX PRLs are strictly Verizon/Alltel PRLs, the SprintVZWPRL is a PRL that was designed for Verizon guys that wanted to roam on Sprint. Which is sweet for us Sprint users that want to use Verizons/Alltels towers but swich back to Sprint if there is no service.
P.S. - These PRLs DO show when your roaming. Please post your speed results and which PRLs work best for you so others can benefit. Use at your own risk, some have been terminated for roaming too much. These are being posted for testing purposes only, dont come crying to me if Sprint whacks your fingers!
FOR ME
Reserved for later.
Could you explain the difference between each prl file please. Looks interesting. Might have to try this out. Is there a speed difference?
Not trying to troll, but you should put a disclaimer in the op that with continuous use of non sprint prl will result in contract being terminated..
There are reports of this in the general thread and on android central. Just a thought so no one starts blaming you or any other member who post these Verizon prl's. Lol they will go on a witch hunt... ha ha

Yeah I'm a firm believer in C.Y.A. Not trolling just a friendly reminder to OP. Thanks for the work on this, I'm going to try the verizon/sprint one.
I assume this has to be applied while on a sense rom? And if applied while on sense and i nandroid back to cm7 do i lose the new prl? or would it stick if i just flashed cm7 over sense instead of using nandroid?

Man thx i get horrible service where i live and i hope this verizon\sprint one will help me out.
So wait is it right to say by loading these you can use both sprint and vzw towers to get your cell service?
downloading now
Mine only works for phone service. Still connects to Sprint's data, except 999ms ping, instead of 300.
;(
Tried every prl out 2 times and speed tested 3 times each time.

Yep, dude. It's been talked about in other threads too. It's the "man" trying to keep a brother down again.
was at work and noticed my phone was roaming, but i'm in a sprint area - i was on 60679, did a prl update and now im on prl 60680.
couldnt find what the changes between the prl's.
if anyone want to guide me through pulling the info i'd be happy to do it to compare to the previous prl.
btw, I'm in Clinton, CT
Until AOSP has the ability to update prl/data profile, it sure be mighty swell if a fine young developer would hook us up with dual boot capabilities like the Epic has.

Same with me - on a business account - updated prl a few days ago and it went to 60679 from 01115?, and then today to the 60680.
they all seem to be the same as coverage near me goes - they must have added some other roaming areas/coverage (or removed it? based on verizon changes maybe?)
I was on 01115 [not a business account], updated today here in virginia, and can confirm the 60680 PRL.
Yeah, mine updated too, FINALLY.
Now, my connection is faster, my signal is stronger and I can talk to God!

60680 in Chicago.

I have cleanROM installed. that's it, nothing else. I went ahead and installed todays OTA and at work, where i normally have 4G, it won't connect. it doesnt say "error", simply "disconnected".
Anyone else having this issue?
by "cleanrom" you mean you have a custom rom installed? If you do, NEVER take ota updates when you are rooted.

How did you receive an update in the first place? Most custom ROMs disable the phone's autoupdate/OTA notifications feature to avoid issues like this.
lmao. what an 1D10T! lmao! Well, find out if you still have the key using the app. once you have confirmed you have the key. install the "STOCK!" rooted copy and attempt to connect again. lol. then if it doesn't work. get a hammer and smash all your fingers for being stupid. lol!
TIME AND TIME AGAIN, NEVER TAKE AN OTA! IT SHOULD BE COMMON SENSE! I could bet anything that sprint disabled their 4G network because they don't want to support wimax anymore. LOL!
So what does the update fix/break anyway?

PRL is preferred roaming list. Its a file that tells your phone what towers to roam on when you have no sprint service. It will NOT improve your sprint signal, your phone automatically connects to those towers, it only improves roaming capabilities.

You seem like the person to ask with as much knowledge as you know about phones and all the work you've created; good grief. I am stuck with Sprint and cant leave until next year without paying ETF; long story short; get terrible service and have airave (only works half the time and have 3 replacements-sprint does not want to address to issue; and me being on a SERO account probably doesn't help either) but someone in a different thread mentioned about a sprint diagnostic tool that you can use to force your phone to Roam verizon towers and get the boot rather quickly from sprint; unfortunately he said it was only for samsung devices; http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1774503

I didn't know if there was such a tool that could work for the evo shift that you knew of since you work with other devs and know A LOT about A LOT of stuff. I searched google a bit then headed over here of the forums, but couldnt find much in regards to it for my phone. thanks in advance

No you don't need to change your prl. Also, Several Shift ROMs like newSENSE Supreme Sense and StockMod have roam only as an option built in so you don't have to buy roam control if you don't want too.
