I took this test in Detroit and I had 1 bar during most of the test. PRL 3024 has better 3g reception for me.

I had 3023 and did that and I was moved back to 3019. When I talked to a MPCS rep he said "Do not ever *228 if you already have something better, it could roll back, because Metro will push to a new prl and the prl at *228 may not up to date." His words not mine.

I did same thing in past and was also pushed back to 3019:thinking: (learn the hard way) but then updated to 3023.

Now have 3024 - n so far 3g's been working pretty good (Florida) tho I use my wifi more often. ~~Glad to see someone is uploading it. :)

so, the answer that escapes me is how do we get the phone (now that we *228'd back to 3019) to update itself back to 3024 which it seemingly did automagically by itself without manually doing it?

Ok, so I installed the prl 3024 and few days after that I finally got 3G in Queens, NY. However, it keeps switching between x1 and 3G, is there any way I can make it stay on 3G? I can't keep it even long enough just to make a speed test.

I'm getting the same thing. I'd say wait until 3025, that would probably make things more stable.

Edit I Forgot to add get LTE on off from the market and switch to evdo only.
