ok so i got the sprint prl on the privail and the airave(airvana) picks up the phone but says i cant make calls from this number! Any one know how to allow this number to use the airave?
sorry I can't help you for what you seek....but maybe you can help me ...How did you go about getting the PRL on your phone
Not sure if it matters but i have debugging on
CDMA workshop(dont ask me. ask google)
on the phone dial ##8778#
enter msl code(google how to get msl with connectbot)
change it to USB
open cdma workshop and change the port# to the port your phone is on
click connect then read (after this it should say ready in the bottom of CDMA workshp window)
Go to the security tab and send the defult samsung password
should say phone is unlocked
go to others tab and select write prl
chose the .prl file you want to use and write it to the phone
close cdma workshop with the X and it will ask you something about sending a command to the phone just except this and the phone should reboot.
Please help me I'm daft.
What is the objective of having the sprint prl on boost? Or any other company's prl for that matter?
i have prl 11115I've been trying out several prls, but I am interested to see which one that people are having the best results with...
i have prl 11115
its been pretty good. I should check if there is an update.
you got it?Any ideas why cdma workshop give me an error "failed. phone does not answer" it connects the com8 and com9 but wont read and i cant change prl
never fixed!!
you got it?
for some reason I found you have to change to usb right before you open cdma workshop.
the prl gives you tower information, if the 60681 gives you higher download your probably connecting to a closer tower.Yeah that works for me too thanks
Anyway i've been trying out different prl they all have signal but i'm just at the house so i'm not sure which one is better because i havent been out yet, but does better download mean better signal? cuz prl 11115 give me about 500kbps and 60681 gives me over 1000kbps
When you open cdma workshop and go to the security tab it will have a drop down box you just select default samsung password from the menui want to try this. i get cheap signal at my house and other places. can some one send me links to download cdma workshop. also where do i find the prl files? and what is the default samsung password? i already know my msl number. thanks in advance
ok got cdma work shop, i think i found the prl, and msl. whats the default password?
the prl gives you tower information, if the 60681 gives you higher download your probably connecting to a closer tower.
Though depending on when they put out the 60681 newer is usually better.
it is always better to connect to a closer tower.is it better to connect to tower that are closer to you? Cuz prl 11115 tower are 140 km away or bout two hours away compare to 60681 which is in town?
no it does not cost anything, on boost you get no roaming so you never need worry about connecting and using a tower that is going to cost anything.Does it cost money to use other prls?
And can you just use one or can you use multiple prls?
it is always better to connect to a closer tower.

One more thing does changing prl change your coverage map? Thanks a lot you save me a lot of time optimus
Honestly, changing the PRL to a non Boost one doesn't change the coverage map much if you already have decent service, and it's a hit or miss if you don't. I'm kind of lucky being that I didn't have too good coverage before, but since experimenting with numerous true Sprint PRL's I'm tapping into more towers and my coverage has improved as well as my download speeds.
when i tried downloading cdma workshop microsoft essentials popped up. is that normal or did i find a dirty file?
what prl do you use? i have sprints 60681
