My PRL is 60668. When I click update PRL or update Profile, it says "Checking for PRL/Profile update", then says "PRL/Profile could not be updated. Please try again later. If the problem persists, you may need to contact Customer Service. Error code:1012". This happened to me a couple of ROMs ago, any suggestions as to what this is about?
bump????????????

Through research all I can see is the hard reset route, and CDMA workshop. It just seems like no one cares honestly
I've done at least 5 hard resets today and nothing. It just keeps saying "searching for network" I really didn't want to waste my entire day doing this. ugh. I know it must be somewhere in the settings, but Sprint peeps don't seem to have a clue either.

No it's not somewhere in the settings, that's the problem. You went to settings, system upgrade, then update prl and got the same error as me right?
If you have another phone, go online and switch over to it, then switch back, and it will be fixed. That or sprint themselves have some other option. The only way to fix it yourself is pretty complicated
We did all of that. The Sprint rep switched phones and everything and still nothing. It's just not finding the network. LAME!!!

Oh wow that sucks IDK, I'd call em back and complain, demand free service
UPDATE!!!! I thought wth I'll give Sprint another call and see if I can get a different advanced tech that might have some more ideas and get me back up and running. Well after about 2 minutes she asks for my ESN number to validate and well......IT WAS INCORRECT! She updated it to the correct one and voile it works now! My suggestion is to call them and verify that they have the correct ESN. Good luck.
There have been issues with CDMA activation/provisioning all day today. This would include data profile issues and possible PRL updates as well. Try again this weekend.

I will, thanks for the update, and glad your problem was fixed. This seems like a possible problem, considering all of the trouble I had switching the lines over, along with selling my old phone, activating old phone, then dummy phone, then evo, then switched evo.. I'll look into it.

Ha bro this issue has been happening for a long time, check the dates
I'm having this same problem. Just did my first root and installed Fresh Evo 3.1.0.1, with the recommended newest radio/wimax. Everything but the phone works great. I can still dial and receive calls at my normal number, showing good reception, but there is tons of hiss and my voice almost never makes it to the other phone.
Tried to Update Profile and Update PRL, and both gave me Error 1012. Sprint's website is down right now (4 AM Sunday morning), so maybe the network is simply not currently serving updates.
However, if it's something that can be fixed, I'd be grateful if anyone has an idea.
I could be wrong but if i recall error 1012 is a Sprint data/vision username/password error and is correctable with a call to tier 2 tech support.
I cant remember for certain tho, But I believe thats what that is, I know i've seen it quite a few times before.
Im now having this issue. What has been the cause for most of you? If you found out.

hi guys,
I have been a lurker for a while, didn't actually have anything meaningful to contribute (to create a new post/thread), i.e. until now!
Bought a galaxy nexus in April when Google started selling it on the Play store. I did not root it and/or modify it in anyway other than trying out a few apps I developed.
Given that background, 3G/HSPA data has not been working on the phone ever since I got and installed the Jelly Bean OTA update.
I thought I also had the Wifi issues that others are facing, but it turned out to be just a setting (Keep WiFi ON during sleep was set to NEVER by the JellyBean update, am pretty sure I didn't do it).
Do you guys have any clue as to what might be happening here? Any troubleshooting tips?
I am on the AT&T prepaid, data was fine until the JellyBean update. My friend with galaxy nexus also started having this problem post the OTA update, but he is AT&T post paid.
any insights???
thank you!
EDIT:
Also, I forgot to mention in my initial post ..
I get good signals and 3G or H also shows up next to the signal bars, but they are in grey.

I didn't call AT&T because I know thats exactly how they are going to reply. If you didn't know it before, AT&T claims the $50 unlimited talk/text/web is unlimited web only for dumb phones but for smartphones you`ll need a separate data top-up. However, I have been using 3G with the same SIM card from November 2011. I had a Nokia N95 till April and then bought the galaxy nexus.....I didn't add the data top-up.
So at first when I started having this problem I thought AT&T finally started blocking 3G on the nexus, but later found out that my friend who is also on AT&T but on a post paid contract also has this same problem from the day he got JB OTA.
Unfortunately, I never went to Phone Information settings until after I got the JB update, so I do not know how it was before the OTA. .

Hello. I finally decided to root my galaxy s3 a few days ago. After I did so I downloaded some themes, ad block, etc. the normal stuff. The next day I started noticing something odd with the phone, such as very poor data connection (I can restart the phone and it will say I am on 4g for a minute or two although the connection doesn't say the same, but then it will either go to EDGE or give me no connection at all.) and poor network (says I have good bars but texts don't send often and take 10 minutes to receive; phone calls drop.}
I took the device to the AT&T store and got a new SIM card and that did nothing. 45 minutes of "support" did even less for me. I unrooted it, factory restored it, nothing.
I am desperate, if anyone would give me a workaround / fix, it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
Not sure. Did you check your APN settings? Did you flash any ROMS, modems or kernels at all?

Thank you, now for the QCN..........I will be very happy when this is fixed lol.
So whenever I try to create a QCN I am unable to find it in the location I placed it, and I have hidden files visible. When I try to slide it to a different folder it says the file doesn't exist anymore. My phone has moved to "Unspecified" in devices and printers and I am unable to access any of its files even after trying to reinstall drivers multiple times (it gets stuck on the 5th one...network something...). Does anyone have any suggestions on how to resolve the problem with not being able to access my phone?
Ok I figured out how to access my phone and I think installing a new modem fixed it.....we will wait a couple hours and see.
I have a new Galaxy S3 (AT&T branded) phone... No matter what I do any extra APN settings I put in the APNs gets randomly deleted... I thought it was my SIM card but ANY SIM I try this happens, with Straight Talk, With Net10, and with AT&T Go Phone... if its not the default one randomly during the day it will get deleted... I have Googled this issue and found MANY people with the same exact issue but none have an answer except return the Phone... I would love to except I got the phone off a guy who just bought it from Radio Shack (We traded phones and cuz I deleted my old phone to sell it the texts are gone and I never put his number in my phone book... He was a very computer illiterate and thought that Net10 was cutting off his Data so it was happening with him too but he had not a clue... So returning it is out of the question... what do I try? I looked here and found a few old threads about this but never resolved (maybe I missed some?) This is making the phone next to unsusible its a 100% stock phone I am looking into finding a way to do a full restore Via Kies right now but I doubt that will work... Samsung is useless in this issue they say talk to Straight talk and Straight talk says talk to Samsung and AT&T wont even talk to me since I don't have a contract... please help...

If it's 100% stock, what do u mean when u say that you're going to do a full restore? Have u unlocked the phone yet? There are a few threads that tell u how to do this, and u have to be stock, so try that and see if it helps. Are u saving the new APN after u create it? I've had this happen a couple of times after flashing a new ROM, later on I would reboot, and my straight talk APN would be gone, but I just create another one and it always sticks after that... Is your phone updated to the newest 4.1.2?

Just a recap... I have Android 4.1.2, my phone is AT&T branded... The APN settings randomly delete themselves, all of them, it doesn't matter if I make 20 APNs and save them all when it happens all of them go away... I found something strange today... I lost my APN settings like normal early this morning (right before I posted this thread) and I was being lazy so I just put in the APN and the port I left out the MMS settings Cuz I didn't feel like looking them up plus I don't think I've gotten a picture message since 2002... Anyway the settings have not cleared yet and its been a whole day... Maybe its one of those long times were it won't reset for a day or two... Or maybe just maybe I am on to something... I have never seen the APN settings reset yet with just the data set up and nothing else.... I'll keep it like this and keep u all posted....

Hmmm, not really sure then. I just used my old sim that came with the 959g, trimmed it down, created a new APN with all the old settings and was good to go! Maybe try APN manager from the market? U can backup and restore your settings. At least u wouldn't have to enter them manually every time.

Yes it totaly random and other people have the same issue... the APNs still havent reset with the way I have it now maybe it has something to do with the MMS settings here are the new settings maybe someone can find a flaw in them...
FIELD SETTINGS
NAME straight talk
APN tfdata
PORT 80
MMSC http://mms-tf.net
MMS PROXY mms3.tracfone.com
MMS PORT 80
as of right now only putting in the TFdata line with the first port 80 seems to be keeping it... I dont use my MMS but I do have really long texts that get sent MMS sometimes and they would not get sent/receved so is there anyone who can look at this and tell me if Straight Talk ****ed something up here? the thing is Both Net10 AND Straight Talk have these same exact settings and the Go phone could have just been cuz I had the Straight talk ones in the list,..... I might be on to something here.... if I get this Ill post on all of those pages that had issues that have never been resolved maybe the MMSC or the MMS PROXY is giving errors cuz I do know that when it works with all of these settings on the data is a slower (3Mbps) to when its just the data settings (6Mbps plus) but that could have been a acquiescence (spelled right?) LOL can someone who knows about MMS and MMS proxys get back at me?
WTF?!?!?
THE APN Settings still have not reset with just the Data settings wrote in.. Im going to put the MMS settings in tonight and see how long it lasts till it resets... I hope this helps someone knowing you can have the DATA settings at lest is better then nothing... Im gonna experiment, if they delete again ill try the old proxy and MMS settings and see if they still work...

I got TWO major reasons why I haven't rooted yet, the first being I have heard from more then one site that returning the S3 has fixed the problem like the one they had was defective, if I have to return it I'd rather it be stock (I know I said I couldn't return it to the store but I know if I ***** at Samsung long enough they will give me the warranty since they have the record of when it was sold)
The other reason is I want to try and figure the problem out if it is a glitch, hardware issue, Android issue, whatever it may be and if I root and ROM it then that's just one more factor I have to throw in to the list of things that could be messing with my results... also some of the other posts Ive read they were on CM 10.1 so it could be a deeper issue.... I think maybe its the way the MMS is entered to the device maybe there is a trick... there is a hi-fen (I don't know how to spell it) in the settings and I have never seen one before in MMS settings...
Lastly I take my time and go though all the ROMs cuz I don't like to flash my phones over and over since I use my phone though out the day for many reasons so I need a working smartphone.... but I do have to do it soon since I do need my Tether... my SGSII is looking better all the time to bring as back up since its not getting much traffic on Craigslist....
Weird.....
So I have been going for DAYS without an issue.... the only thing that's different in my APN now is the NAME from when it was deleting itself... I used to name it Straight Talk but i been named it TF I wonder if having a space in the name messed it up? this is truly strange and if that's the issue then I will have to lay down and take a nap from the head trauma that will follow, finding out that naming the APN wrong can have these effects... Ill report back here ASAP on this....
almost a month and still working have not a clue what is going on...
I did remember seeing an update from AT&T but it didn't seem like any kind of firmware update I thought it was something to do with one of their apps but who knows... APNs are working fine now haven't had one delete on me in all this time... strangest thing I have ever seen... I bought a 6.5 inch Monster quad core phone from China and will be joining that thread now (if there is one)... I gotta sell this SIII and SII now LOL but thanks for all of you who tried to help
Hey everyone and thanks for taking the time to read this,
So the story goes as so: After doing some research couple months ago about the capability of the Verizon Galaxy S3 to work on T-mobile, i purchased it, and got it to successfully work on T-mobile(texts, calls, wi-fi). The problem is, i just recently upgraded to include a data plan, and i cannot access the internet, despite taking my phone to my cell phone dealer and contacting T-mobile.T-mobile even sent me a guide to do a mastery reset to factory in hopes to solve this problem, only to tell me afterwards that the phone version SCH-I535 is a "verizon locked-software" and i won't be able to set up an APN to work on the T-mobile network. This was all due to the fact that i was not able to set up a APN for T-mobile, and every time i tried to access it through setting, it brought me to a blank black page with the only option of "Reset to Default". After reading other forums and talking with some people, many have suggested i take this issue to XDA to find a solution.
So, here i am.....Does anyone know if it is possible for me to break/root/ or whatever it is called so i can successfully access the t-mobile network on my phone? Preferably an easier guide since i am sort of a newbie at this sort of stuff.
Thanks again for reading.
Before your Contract change, you were able to receive and make calls successfully with T-Mo Sim right ? Even now you can make calls too correct ? The reason I am asking this is to be able to check if you are really unlocked off of VZW. If you are not unlocked, then that would be the first step.
You are right, the APNs do drive Data Connection. If the stock firmware does not allow you to change APNs then you will have to root. Please post a screen of your Settings > About phone that shows your Rom Version, Baseband and Kernel.

Hey Perseus, thanks a lot for taking the time to reply. I bought the phone in the summer off someone who had verizon. I have always had T-mobile, and considering this phone is GSM, i decided to buy it because it would probably work for T-mobile. I had the phone unlocked, and i am currently using it to make calls, texts, and even use wi-fi with no problem. The only problem at this time is that i recently added a data plan which i cannot currently use. Here is a screen shot of what you have requested.
Thanks again
First try
Settings > More > Mobile Networks > Preferred Network Type.See what it is set to. Change it to LTE/GSM/WCDMA if needed. See the other option System Select as well.
Also separately try the following.
Hit ##DATA# in the Dialer. In the subsequent Menu choose EDIT > OTHERS > LTE APN
If all fails, please Root the phone and then try. The way you go about is
1. Flash a Custom Recovery via Odin. Make sure the version of Custom recovery is for your model D2VZW not D2TMO.
2. Flash a SuperSU zip file via Recovery and then hit fix permissions in the recovery.
Try the APN Settings after that. IF you can actually access them, then set them according to this link.
If all the above fails, I'd suggest a custom Rom for d2VZW.
You will never get 4g trust me I had one... you will just get the E

Ok, so i tried to changed it to LTE and i got no service at all, so i switched it back to Global. I also tried the dialer thing several times, and got the " connection problem or invalid MMI code"
So i guess i am going to have to root the phone? Does anyone know a good video tutorial or written tutorial on how to safely do this? Also, what exactly is rooting?

You have to enable the mmi codes to use them. Anyway as stated above your reply you will never get 3g or 4g just edge (seen it personally) which is pretty darn slow.. Not worth it if you ask me and be paying for data.. If you still want to root it and keep trying to add sons check the Verizon forums.. They could probably help you a lot more than on this side of the forums

Guys, he is not getting ANY data signal at all. His problem isn't getting the specific icon but being not able to change APNs.
@HackThisThing, you are better off following up on Verizon Device forum. That forum does have a video tutorial for Rooting. Here's forum link.
I don't think you will be able to change APNs without rooting. I checked with a buddy of mine who has the same device as you.
Here's a good answer to What is Rooting ?
Even if you CAN fix it, why bother if you can only get 2G? I'd sell it or trade it for a phone that's more compatible with T-Mobile 's network instead of paying for data and only getting dial-up speeds. I get that solving problems is fun, but OP do you want to live with only 2G?
Sent from my SGH-T999 using Tapatalk
I don't agree with that assessment. Just like the T999L phone, this device will work on LTE Bands just fine. OP just needs to wait for LTE to be rolled out in their area. There's a coverage map and roll out schedule on T-Mo website and the T-Mo News blog.
It's worth a look, but could still leave them with patchy coverage. If it's going to be a while, why wait when it's not hard to just trade the phone? I guess I don't see a reason why hold out on getting a Verizon phone to work when you could just get one that works now with little to no monetary loss. It's just a Verizon S3, not really something worth "waiting" for when they could get the same thing but more functional on their network of choice.
They made an honest mistake and waiting might give them "good enough" service - but other than that they're stuck with dial up speed only and risk bricking a phone they could just trade or sell now.
Maybe I'm just impatient and risk averse.
