Most recent PRL for 'where', exactly? Different parts of the US have different PRLs.

As I am SURE everyone knows, a PRL is a "preferred roaming list" It is for secondary tower acquisition when you are in an area that is not served by Verizon's primary towers. A new or different PRL will have NO effect on your phone when you are not roaming.

Hello,
I am trying to get a hold of the US Cellular .prl file 15106. I am on VZW and want to manually flash 15106 so I can roam on USCC 3G. I do not have VZW 3G in my area and am stuck on 1X all the time.
Can anyone help?
Thanks in advance.

Have you done this?
Menu>Settings>Wireless & Networks > Mobile Networks > Check Data Roaming
also make sure system select is on Automatic and not Home only
Yup, I do roam on their towers but I can't get 3G. I know they have it, it is just not in my prl to use 3g.
Can anyone tell me how to pull the file from a friends phone with a mac?
Bump - anyone????
It was just brought to my attention that I don't have to have that specific prl I just need one at least that new.
If you still need a current US Cellular PRL, I can upload it somewhere for you. This thread is kind of old though...
USCC prl
I would like the USCC prl for 3g. I am on Sprint, but the signal where I'm at isn't that great.

I'm on Verizon as well and I am having problems with getting data or voice in parts of my area. I could use the latest prl from USCC if possible... Thanks.

I too desperately need a USCC .prl file if it is available. Thanks for any help
I had used a Verizon PRL which gave me great signal in my college in NY. I'm home in Puerto Rico for spring break and get absolutely nothing since there's no Verizon here. How can I revert to a Sprint PRL? Any flashable file or something I could do? I have wifi.
Fixed it, I love you all.
Get the Sprint prl and use ##775# to load that prl file. Search for 60683 on here.
I have heard that one can take one PRL from another phone and place on another phone in order to pick up different data services, such as if I had a Verizion phone and I'm in an 1x coverage area but can pick up 3G from another carrier if I only change the PRL to there carrier's PRL. If anyone has any info on this please let me know.
This does not work on lk8 and later updates. see this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2042277 to add back prl write function.
I got corp prl 24006 unzipped it, renamed it test.prl, put it on my internal card. Dial ##data# then click on write prl and write prl again, phone should reboot with 24006 prl. This only works on touchwhiz. I set it to automatic network and made sure I have roaming guard off.
I get no signal with out my airave here, which doesnt make sense because the samsung intercept gets 2-3 bars without it. Our cable goes out every now and then so I dont want to be stuck with out a phone. This prl allows you to roam on other carriers.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1747257 link for prl 24006 post 160. if you click on 24006 (the top one) it will bring you to post 160.
If you ever update your prl in the future it will wipe out this one and you will have to redo the install on the dialer.
I took the update on my phone and it restored my old prl, so I had to reinstall it. If you left the file on your sd card just start at the dialer directions.
I cant take credit for any of this info, other than being the first one to try it on the note 2.

Renamed it TEST.prl it accepted /rebooted and shows 24006 as the prl but im not roaming still. Are you forcing it to room?
I set it to automatic network and made sure under roaming that all boxes were checked. this seems to be backwards from the GS3. once all boxes were checked I have 3 bars.
The stock PRL on these phones is 55008... wouldn't it be bad to go to a PRL designed for a different phone not to mention with a lower number?
Its not for a different phone, its for a corporate account. Corporate prls are different. IT will not ruin your phone. It allows you to roam on other carriers.
I've attempted to locate the posting you linked to your message, unfortuanetly it is not longer there, is there another location for this corp prl?

I would assume the big difference in the PRL numbers is because the Galaxy Note 2 has GSM bands as well. Does Sprint allow roaming on At&t towers?

Even if the Sprint Note 2 does still have GSM active, we couldn't roam on GSM networks because the phone doesn't have a SIM, nor does it have a place to put a SIM. No SIM no GSM access.

It has an embedded SIM. But still, it's not setup to roam on GSM in the US.

It only allows for roaming on preferred carriers outside of the US.
A little tidbit on PRLs guys:
1. Please...please..please...stop spreading the lies that 24xxx is a corporate PRL. It's far from it.
2. Looking for a VZW 3G roaming PRL? Try 56xxx or 16xxx for LTE/800SMR devices.
3. But what about 12124 or 11119? 12xxx is missing the MCC/MNC records needed for some LTE chipsets, it also has the 800SMR channels/SIDS as lower priority than PCS. 11119? Don't even touch it unless you are on say the original EVO or Epic.
4. No CDMA PRL will ever have anything to do with GSM. Get it? It's a CDMA PRL, GSM doesn't use PRLs.
5. Can I get a PRL to enable VZW LTE? Nope. Your phone isn't auth'd for it nor is it setup for it.
6. Well what is 55xxx? It's a PRL for LTE devices but it does not have 800SMR support at this time. What does this mean? You could be in Chicago in a thick walled building and your buddy pulls out his GS3 or EVO LTE that has a stock PRL on it, his phone would have coverage from Sprint on the 800mhz channel and you would have no coverage or either be roaming.
7. Why doesn't it have 800SMR since the phone support it? Don't know.
8. What other phones have this 55xxx PRL? iPhone and Photon Q LTE or whatever it's name is.
and continue on with the other list of PRL myths...
There have been multiple threads all over xda saying that 24006 is a corporate prl. if it isnt, then what is it? and why is everyone saying it is?

Because someone decided to start that rumor. Corporate prls to me roam on VZW 3g, 24xxx doesn't do this so it isn't corporate in my book.

there is no 3g roaming for on 56006 either for me.

Help with putting the prl on my Note II.
Sorry for my ignorance, but when you say "put it on my internal card," where exactly do you mean? I downloaded the zip file you mentioned, renamed it to test.prl, dragged into the root storage for the phone, and followed the rest of the steps but I get a message saying there is not test prl file on the SD card.
Could you please help? Many thanks.

It worked for me. Make sure you have your MSL code to get in the programming.
What are you using the msl code for? any extra settings that your adding like a force to roam ? I was able to load several different test.prl's without the MSL but Im not able to MAKE my phone roam. Theres a very weak weak sprint signal that it tries to hold on to If i was able to get my msl and tweak it to roam it would be Awesome!
