I Tried Flashing Software (Easy Flasher & Houdini) And Also Tried QPST 2.7 But No Luck Im Able To Go Thru All The Steps But Nothing Changes Has Anybody Been Able To Change Their PRL On Their MetroPCS S3 Phone?
if your trying to flash something else besides prl 2032 dont even bother. i was given a new prl named 9033 supposenly a new prl we are getting around the end of this month and its suppose to allow us to connect to sprint's evdo.....didnt work. if your on a old prl like 2031 then try *228 option 5. also if your trying to flash a prl from some other carrier dont even bother nothing happens.
Ok You Got Me I'm Trying To Flash A PRL From A Different Carrier, On The Lg Esteem I Was Able To Change It To Any PRL From Any Carrier Do You Know The Reason We Can't On The MetroPCS S3? Its It Just Because The Phone Is New On MetroPCS Line Up And No One Has Found A Way To Do It Yet
Worked for me what did you do?
I'm more interested in what you did can you link us if what your saying is true or share more details of what your trying to say
Its a similar application to qpst I can provide a link for you to download it. I have used it to change/pull prl from the phone and change other things too. like the others said you can change the prl if you are on stock rom with out using this but I'm not on stock so I used DFS.

Im on a stock rom tried every thing the phone even reboots with every program I mentioned in my first post like its actually doing it but sadly nothing changes on the device im surprised I haven't bricked it lol and yes if you can provide a link to the program you mentioned I would be grateful but your are talking about the "MetroPCS Samsung Galaxy S III" Right?
how did you get the port number to show up in device manager?
Drivers must be installed then from stock and stock only u must enter hidden menu make sure its enabled first, then switch it to rmnet+dm+modem then hit ok your phone should try to install the modem driver from your computer's device manager. once it done only then you will have a port number. ill repeat again this will only work on stock ics since on aosp roms hidden menu dont exist! so any prl changes will have to be done on stock.
on stock go to dialer and dial this
*#22745927
enable hidden menu.
then i think u dial *#7284# to switch it to rmnet+dm+modem cant remember but im sure some1 can correct me if im mistaken.
I flashed a custom Verizon prl. Although 4g was same. My phone was literally kind of on Verizon network for voice. I mean we can mess around with the setting. Also you will have to flash the metropcs prl couple of time before it sticks so don't freak out if the phone stays in Verizon prl even after few flash. Keep flashing and it will stick.
Does metro allow roaming on other providers? Or will they charge for it?

You can flash prl manually using the phone it self by accessing the iothiddenmenu then there is an option to flash test prl what you do is download the prl in your sd card and rename it to test.prl and then flash in the hidden menu stated earlier. Also like everyone else said honestly we have the best prl already flashing anything is useless or may rather degrade the network.
metro knows when you are roaming.
DependsDo they allow it? Or will they charge extra for it. Sent from my SCH-R530M
