[Q] can someone rip their PRL out of their INCREDIBLE phone for me? :-)

get it? incredible phone....nevermind.
I need the latest Verizon PRL so I can roam on Verizon's tower, so if anyone know how to copy it from their phone onto the computer for me would be great. Thanks
Note: I have the HTC EVO and no service with Sprint in my area(roaming) with 1x/1bar

Soooo... would this work?

I recently posted a verizon prl , I think in Android General. You'll have to search it out. Version 52011. It is the second most recent one.
BTW I'm not sure what you're proposing will work.
Sent from my ADR6300 using XDA App

there is a thread about this in the evo forum.
why not use the prl posted there?

yes i looked there and used those PRLs for the evo in the evo forums.
Really I don't know why I get 1x on ever prl I use. only difference is some PRLs give me a roaming sign and others dont...i'll search for that PRL you mention in your post, hopefully I havne used that one yet

I have the verizon/alltell hybrid prl if you'd like it.

I made a Verizon / sprint hybrid prl for my brothers evo and it works just like what your trying to do. Make sure to uncheck preferred home network while in cdma workshop or you will get roaming. If you pm me I can send you about ten different ones I had made.

I am confused... so just by flashing a different operator's prl - you can use their towers too??? Doesn't the device have to be authorized to connect to sprint as well?

Sorry to jump in but the above post is correct if your Phone's ESN isn't on Verizon's list of active ESNs all you will do is Roam.

Sprint users can hybrid with verizon and verizon users can hybrid with alltel. I had a tech switch me to a hybrid alltel/verizon prl b/c where I live is all old alltel towers and my inc wasn't using them and my service was unusable. I didn't even know what he was talking about then until months later when I started reading here.

Is it possible to make a hybrid for multiple towers 3 or more
Verizon alltel and sprint or is two the Max

Is this because sprint has a roaming arrangement with verizon? Still, very unusual... So a sprint user can flash a hybrid prl on their evo to get it to connect to verizon towers without paying roaming charges? If this is the case, why is this not all over the web? Very odd...
Verizon brought Alltel so giving inc users a hybrid to connect to alltel towers is no biggie but a sprint verizon hybrid prl is very odd. And would it work in reverse? Can i flash a prl which will allow my inc to connect to sprint towers as well just in case they are closer to me?

I'm not sure on the sprint users but when I asked him if I could get on sprint towers as well as alltell b/c sprint is best in an area I drive through, that's what he told me.

I went from 52011 to 52078. I saw higher numbers in other forums... are PRLs based off of location? Which Verizon prl is in the Verizon / Alltel Hybrid ? Any benefits of an Incredible(using Myns Warm TWOPOINTTWO) using a Sprint /Verizon Hybrid?

A Sprint Verizon hybrid would be amazing. You'd be able to use both towers

So are could they be doing tri-bands for the phones or no? In a way it makes sense since 3G is so ass who would want to wait for LTE to come to their town and be on 3G when they could use 4G in the mean time. I do imagine though it would be a big time battery hog...

Never got 4G on Sprint (HTC Supersonic)

Hello everyone, I hope to check this thread for updates (read: I'm so dumb I don't check for thread updates often *laughs*).
Anyway, as the title says, I never got 4G on my phone, even before rooting it! I obtained this phone, new, around the time Sprint (began) started adding a extra rate for all smartphones (read: all smartphones will be more expensive than "simple" phones on same plan).
I'm wondering how to get 4G on my phone that is running Cyanogenmod. I am well-versed in Linux, so if the adb shell or the bootloader is required to fix, I can follow the steps you provide. Or should I just accuse Sprint for giving me a defective phone those many, many years ago, even though I never got 4G in the first place? (since my phone is rooted atm, I doubt I could win a court case.)
I appreciate any help, even if you do not know how to fix this. (read: asking around or just reading this)

4G and wimax are the same thing if you didn't know.
And OP, if you are on an ICS Rom or a JB Rom, you will not have wimax. For all you know, you might not even have 4G service in range of where you live. I personally have never even connected to a 4G network.

i'm referring to the standard 4G pn Sprint (or whatever 4G was said to be had on "Sprint HTC Evo 4G" by Sprint)

From my understand wimax AND Lte use different radios hence why any of the new lte phones like the GS3 or evo are stuck on 3g network until LTE rolls out in the area you live. Also he stated he couldn't access 4g even before so he would be on a stock gb

And if you never have been able to get 4g then I would have brought the phone back to sprint. All their 4g phones should access it if your in the coverage zone.
Sent from my PC36100 using xda premium

If you have had the phone for more than 6 months, which it sounds like you have, you should un-root it and take it to sprint. If that is you want 4g service. The unrooting process is generally about the same in difficulty as rooting the phone was, so if you figured that out you should be able to get it backto stock. The process is different depending on your HBoot version and how you rooted it in the first place. If you want to get your 4g fixed, post your HBoot version and root method and someone will point the way to unrooting the phone.
(to get the HBoot version, pull the battery, put it back in, hold vol down, and power on the phone. You should get into the bootloader and the HBoot version should be listed there.)

I assumed it was due to not having the 4G plan before that caused my phone to never get 4G with the plans change (read: Sprint changed plan details). I should of thought of turning it in sooner, but I was not 100% smart back then (nor will I ever be *laughs*)

I would bring it into a store and get it tested to see if it works after you unroot, my sprint store doesn't care about root but that might not bevl the case. Then if it really doesn't work I would ***** and tell them to look up your account to show you never used 4g and see if the will give you a comp on your account.
Sent from my PC36100 using xda premium

I never noticed any difference in speed the few times I was in California where there was 4g. I live in AZ and with sprint there is no 4g service but we still pay the fee :/

I doubt unrooting it will fully unroot it (I did edit some startup scripts since i've rooted which seemed to have no impact on my data connection (mostly for ext2 mount point on a directory "/mnt/sdcard/sd-ext" which I removed due to delayed sdcard mounting--now I use a script I manually run when I want to ... offtopic sorry >.> ), so idk if a full unroot is possible.
EDIT: *scrolls back on posts* I read that flashing someone else's radio (backed up from their device) can prevent both from using 4G at the same time. tbh, I don't know if I ever did (I hope not)
Sent from my HTC Evo 4G using Tapatalk (ex-GetJar version)

*hopes this doesn't count as a double post*
Somehow I'm getting 4G atm... but it is in a place I tried before (many moons ago). Strange indeed.
What I just don't get is why it is now working. Did I really flash someone else's Radio? If so, was someone else with that "4G login credientals" always on when I tried before? If not, was Sprint lying to me on their online map for 3G/4G coverage?
EDIT: I want to leave this open to see if anyone has any idea as to why it was failing. Another strange finding is that it is a 1 of 3 bars 4G signal according to Cyanogenmod's standard indicator. ( +1 for tethering without having to pay over $100 USD total on Sprint)
Sent from my laptop without any glorious Pixel Shader or "real" Virtulization support.

I've never had wimax signal at my house. Or city.
We are listed as 4g service area for "clear" wimax broadband, but they also state that it is currently not being sold here. That tells me the switch hasn't been flipped on it yet.
There is no sprint wimax one city over but they flipped the switch on "clear" broadband wimax and it's FAST.... If I get signal (its very spotty) ... . 7.4mb down. 1.14mb up.
Edit:
I was searching the intarwebz and it looks like anything more than 2 miles from the tower is pushing it for signal.
I also have the understanding that the 10$ smartphone fee is not just for 4g, but more so the nature of the beast. We have always on, always connected/pinging data devices.

A little late to the party. It's called SVDO, which allows devices with CDMA radios to simultaneously use voice and data.

My understanding is that only the S3 and EVO LTE have the radios capable of doing this, whereas the Nexus LTE may not.

Gs3 and the Evo LTE has two radios antennas. One for voice & one for data. So I've heard. Let me know if I'm wrong tho

It's because they don't support SVDO on all towers and during high volumes, data is less prioritized so you may only get voice.

LMAO I wouldn't be surprised. I don't even bother going into their store to ask questions. Only to look at phones and when I'm approached by someone I tell them I'm fine because 99% of what they say is misinformation or flat out ridiculous. Last time I went I overheard one of the guys telling this lady who obviously knew nothing about phones that she should go with the Epic Touch 4G because the Galaxy Nexus "wasn't that good." Really? It was hard holding my tongue at that moment. Anyways sorry to get a little off topic but just had to let it out.

[Q] Can I use another 4G LTE provider?

Can I use another 4G LTE provider on the Galaxy Note II from Sprint?
I have Boost Mobile and I had a Galaxy S2 with Clear.com 4G WiMax. I now can only get 3G, and as you ALL know the 3G speed has lowered quite a bit. (200~400k vs 700~900k 3 years ago)
Another alternative I guess would be to get a Hotspot, but who wants to carry around a phone AND a hotspot when you can have them both on the phone?

I believe you can use this device on any network that is actually using Sprint towers, like MetroPCS (?) or Boost?
There are threads somewhere for instructions on flashing this.
(i'm also talking out my ass, because I have only noticed these threads in passing, never actually researched this. But I bet if you Searched a bit, you'd find the info.)

Thats why this galaxy note 2 is my LAST Cdma phone. For SURE getting GsM next theres plenty of carriers with 4G for it. Cdma sucks because I cant get no 4G. Before this phone had the oneX and yea 4G I miss.

Are u a retard? Hmm my guess im right on spot with that one. Sprint can suck it. GSM is better and if you don't agree? Take a ticket and take a seat next to the idiots that are waiting for me to give a Fuk.

I give facts and argument you insult sprint... well of course you are right. who has ever heard of the "can suck it" argument ever loosing. that's how we explained to Hitler and the Japanese emperor that he had to surrender in WW2 "Mr Hitler can suck it" -pres trueman, "since I can suck it I have ordered my forces to surrender and suggested to the Japanese to do the same"-hitler (translated to English)
if you can't give facts to support your claim you can go head and get an iPhone on a gsm network since you are using the same arguments apple uses to ensnare its sheep -i mean- customers
either that or you are an at&t rep or fanboy trying to weakarm customers away from sprint. why you aren't targeting your biggest competitor Verizon is beyond me but take that stuff to T-Mobile customers they'll eat that up like they eat their "unlimited" throttled data
one bad experience in one city with one small period of data speed downturn does not a bad carrier make
oh and mods don't blame chuko (or me) for starting arguments. arguments are healthy and help shape perception

In all fairness, Sprint in Denver does suck... 3g speeds right now. 200 kbps and no lte. There are a few lte towers popping up. but not in the metro area. Person in the cube next to me has AT&T and hspa+ is 15mbps and lte 40mbps. Faster than the cable provider here!

Tmobile has 4G LTE in almost all of New York with some decent coverage in Washington, Baltimore and Philadelphia and they're just starting.. So they actually do have real 4G lol
