Hi All
I just received a text message from Sprint saying an Update PRL was available for my EVo. I am rooted and running Myn's Sense ROM. Wondering if it is safe to update the PRL? Am i gaining anything by doing it? My phone is working great, have no issues, so perhaps i should skip it?

Yes, you can update the PRL safely. Don't worry about it.

Ok, I'm mixed up and maybe I still have too much noob left in me. I've got a rooted phone, software version 1.32.651.6. I know there was an update but I didn't do it b/c of fear of losing my root. So, what I did do was update some things "manually." I now have Baseband 2.05.00.06.10, and PRL Version 60667. I also flashed new Wimax as found within these forums. My question now is: I'm hearing about PRI version. How do you update this? And, is it necessary or useful? And finally, was there anything other than the above changes that I'm missing as a result of not doing the OTA?
Any info on any of these questions would help.
Thanks!
After downgrading my PRI to 1.34_003 (using the NAND unlock), I have not been able to receive text messages from AT&T. I have tried everything I possibly could to restore the PRI, but am helpless because it's an issue that resides in the roms themselves, according to toast (forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=6845492&postcount=75). I am really hoping that we can find a way to update back to the stock 1.40_003 or better yet, an updated version. That's just my 2 cents!

Hmm thats strange. I have no problems sending or receiving from AT&T. All my friends but 2 are on it (one T-Mo & one Sprint) and I have no problem whatsoever messaging them.
Hey guys just wondering if there has been a fix or anything for the PRI or if anyone knows of a method that wont get rid of the newest PRI?
No there is not

Do you know the purpose of the PRI? I had heard that it has to do with coverage, I just dont want to do the root then get worse signal then I already had..
I have read that is has something to do with data speed but that is not a sure thing I had never heard of a PRI until recently
Yeah, its just unfortunate that in order to root that the PRI is downgraded, and not to mention that no one knows how to get the update once you have. I had to return a phone to Sprint when I got my new Evo due to screen issues and I had all the newest OTA updates and it would not update the PRI.
I am still not seeing the OTA update from my stock evo. Just wondering if they are still rolling it out or if everyone but me has access now ;-)

What ROM are you running?
If you're running a 2.2 rom already it might think you are current already
Also, just in case you've missed the other billion times it's been said:
DO NOT UPDATE IF YOU LIKE HAVING ROOT ACCESS TO YOUR PHONE

Then just keep checking, it'll show up eventually.
Try updating your profile, and rebooting wouldn't hurt anything.
Thanks for the ideas. So I guess no one knows if its a gradual roll out or if it's available for everyone yet...
I thought it wasn't coming out till thurs? What did I miss..anyway I won't be updating right now. Waiting for all you impatient people to report the bugs and for things to be updated.
Running rooted 1.47. Happy with it...but want that new PRL and wimax because reception here stinks and can't hold 4g if you step in any direction from where you connected.
Hello, i'm new to this forum and must say that there is an incredible amount of information here. I rooted my Incredible a few weeks ago because I wanted to use wifi tethering. When the 2.2 OTA update started going out, I returned my phone to factory settings because I heard clockwork mod was messing with the update. I still have not recieved the 2.2 OTA, and i'm wondering if this is due to having build number 1.22.605.0 until today. I read in a thread that to do the manual method you need to update to 1.22.605.2.
Is there any difference between manually updating to 2.2 and recieving the OTA?
Now that i've updated my build to 1.22.605.2 should I just wait until I get the OTA?
Can anyone confirm Condition 7 in this thread working?: forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=771178
If I only want wifi tethering, should I really root my phone?
The only thing I can answer is your last question. In order to use wifi tether(not Verizons version) you must be rooted.

If you only want wifi tethering - you do have another choice. Change the duns. So far I have not heard of anybody that has been caught doing that but it could be costly if the network provider figured it out,
Ok, I followed all the instructions on rooting without a computer and all went well. I have root, CWM2.5.1 and DRockstar.Clean.Kernel.EC05.v1.02.zip working just fine. However, when I go to update PRL and profile, I get errors and it doesn't work. Any suggestions?
Its a common problem with sprint.
So it's not to rom/kernal?

Something could have happened in the flash. You can verify by Odin back to stock and see if you can update. Sprint fixed there end so most phones update again.
