Root Phone did prl update now no service

[Tattooedgod]

My phone did a prl update by itself now no service x above signal bars.
Help please

you probably messed up the prl like many other users did if you search around u will find the answer but the solution is that u have to download a working prl and push it onto your phone using cdma or dfs something like that...

Here's my post on that same thing happening to me. I can't guarantee my solution will work for you. There was a method of using ##786# and I can't seem to find where the steps were to follow. Hope it helps some.

Good Luck!

I lost 3G today and tried everything I could to get it back, even calling Boost to see if something happened to my account.

I ended up wiping my data and it came back but, I went ahead and updated my profile then, after I updated the PRL, the phone went into roaming mode. After selecting Sprint Only it had no signal and showed the red X.

I'm going to reinstall the rom and hope for the best.

REINSTALLED-- nope...didn't help at all. Now I have a roaming phone. Geez....anyone have suggestion on what I can do to get this phone working again? I've tried the ##786# method, reverting back to stock ....nadda. Tried searching how to manually update PRL and have failed to get a how-to for this phone. Thanks!

UPDATE: well, it works again--- I restored the saved stock version again that I had when i first bought the phone and it went into activation mode, guess because I used the ##786#. It activated, updated PRL then Profile and I am on the boost network all is fine.

Read this thread. It will help you manually change your PRL if needed.

dfs won't connect unless you are running a stock rom, so you will need to flash stock zvc, update prl with dfs, then restore your backup of current rom.

Yeah got it all up and working and loving having it back.

I messed up and updated the prl. I cant get it to diag. mode to connect to DFS. Any ideas?

Did you flash stock ROM

 

[wetbiker7]

Flash back to stock or Marky Beats and use the info I posted above. You're gonna have to install a new prl probably. Tattooedgod can give you the details, he just had to do it.

If you need any help PM me I'll get back to you as soon as I can.

I did flash it back to stock and installed the beats rom. but I still dont get that menu when i dial the numbers, Ive also gotten my MSL via the log. But when i put it on the SPC it says its incorrect

 

[BastardMcgee]

Got it working. Ended up using my laptop. I guess my firewall was blocking communications or somethings. Thanks guys. You guys are awesome.

Yeah that's the other thing you don't need the hidden menu. Just plug in and running DFS and you would need to shut off all virus/firewall that's why wetbiker said I would fill you in if you needed it. It's just a little different than the guide for that phone. And if your on windows 8 good luck I had to switch over to windows 7 to get in done.

 

[BastardMcgee]

Thanks. I was in windows 8. At least now if someone has an issue, this is one more thing they can try.

 

[wetbiker7]

Yep. This is a great method to solve the dreaded loss of service due to prl update or if you just want to change it.

Even better, there is no trial like there is with CDMA workshop.

Or when your phone trys to do a prl update and things go hay wire like it happened to me
