Root Vzw prl

[youdoofus]

ok, so i (against my will LoL) flashed a sense rom so i could update to the vzw prl using these instrusctions and the result was a lower speedtest result.... any ideas as to what the deal is? i thought that vzws transcievers were supposed to be "better"

here ya'll go. use vzw towers at your own discression

Its better in my area...do you have data roaming disabled? You should...

Which prl is it? There are about 5 I know of to try. Some work better than others...

i just did the first one in that xda thread.... ill dig a lil deeper and try a couple diff ones. I guess theyre location specific? And turn data roaming off?? i thought that the data roaming was necessary for the sprint device to hook up with the vzw towers :/

 

[evomattnc]

Dont confuse the prl, lol or me for that matter it will roam, its always roaming, if you actually turn on roaming i think it allows it to hook up back on home...JUST DO IT

 

[youdoofus]

LMAO!!! okay can ya link me the other prl zips pls? (and for the benefit of anyone else who happens upon this thread)

 

[evomattnc]

i'll PM you and not help anyone else...I have like 7, used to have more but my sd card...you know...some of them are sprint ones too...

 

[youdoofus]

LoL okay when i was done foolin around with the one i tried, i just updated automatically thru the sense prl updater thingy.... is that not the preferred method? im only doing this so if/when i go to a rural area(visitin fam n so forth) and i run into connectivity issues, ill have a plan of action to perhaps fix the issue. I guess this is a just in case type thing cuz i get pretty darn good 3g speeds (about 800-900 kbps on a bad day)

 

[evomattnc]

no thats preferred...setting, updates, prl...

 

[evomattnc]

its not that i dont want to help others i just dont know if i can post 7 prl's over here..have to give the whole legal disclaimer first...? im not in the mood

 

[youdoofus]

ohhhhhh.... i was kinda scratcing muh head on that one lol makes perfect sense now... for those who seek it, they already know the risks involved. Well, maybe not, but you know that i know, you know? LoL I dont care if i get kicked for using too much vzw airtime LOL!!! ill just hook it up with virgin or boost and use the vzw prl again LMAO!!!!!

 

[Mr. Ed]

Let me know if you still needs the prls

I have some PRLs in a file but not scared just didn't know if I should flash or push or what. I use Roam control sometimes but lately speeds on internet super slow. Really weird sometimes download at 100 then back up to 600-800 Still not back to my 1.2 high when I was oon Myn Z or CM7, currently on the new Kingdom port by Virus. Wanted to check out Sense 3.0.

Don't believe roam control applies to data, just signal. They may have a flashable zip around somewhere but I change prl by dialing ##prl# and committing the new one

Thanks evomattnc. Would you mind emailing me those numbers...uh I may already have them. I apologize but that sounds very similar to the ##3282# for the data increase that Mr Ed has described in great detail I might ad, (he rocks) and a brief description of the process.

Thanks evomattnc

Good to know. Still rocking 00001 hasn't stopped working yet. If it does I'll try that one first

 

[Mr. Ed]

0001 eventually stopped working for calls for me..I kept getting the "thank you for calling verizon" crap...and txts stopped working.

I remember when I switched I got like 30 txts all at once lol

 

[huffman6977]

fyi....01337 is golden

can some one send me the links please.

 

[youdoofus]

was the link in the op not good enough? its in there.... theres a scrollbox right above the speedtest results on that xda page...... READ GRASSHOPPAH, READ!!!!!

edit, as evom pointed out the word "these" is a hyperlink. sorry if that sounded overly crass. im just an a$$ sometimes purely out of jest, my bad

 

[evomattnc]

maybe he missed the "these" hyperlink...?

 

[youdoofus]

i fully realize that as being a possibility, i guess that was a bit heavy handed.... my bad. it was funny tho

maybe i should edit the op so its not just a linked word

 

[huffman6977]
