Searching does wonders, it also helps you see what else is happening if you have issues.
In case you dont know after installing this, ##775# change PRL. I think you need your msl which there is a app in the market msl reader. you also need to put the prl that you want on there. if you dont have one, search for the prls.

I did find my prl# with ws and I think I can write or change the prl with ws, but I dont know what to write ?
Please help me. The prl that's installed on my phone won't give me data when I roam. When I dial ##775# I get a weird incomplete call message from Cricket. I'm supposed to have unlimited data while roaming. Now I have no data. I installed 2.3.3. Rooted EVO 4G on Sprint. Prl 01115.
EDIT: Never mind, I re-read what you posted. I had answered incorrectly.
you dont actually get unlimited data when you roam....you get 300mb or 800min...after that sprint will ask you to stop the roaming and soon will discontinue your contract. you get truly unlimited data if you use sprints network

My evo is fully flashed and was on the standard $55 plan and I could get everything working, including *228. I had it switched to the $55 android plan and now I am no longer able to *228 or *22804 even if I change my prl file. I am not sure what the problem is but if anyone can help with this it would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you
My internet was VERY slow once this happend...I mean it made dial up look like broadband. I tried to ##prl# so I could change the prl, but with the rom I am using it wouldn't let me update the prl that way. Once I made it back home I was able to update the prl using QPST and while this brought my internet speed back to a nice level it still won't let me *228 or *22804 for some reason. I have no idea what is going on and will still love some help or advice.
Thanks
Got a USCC CDMA Wildfire S (Rooted, S-Off) that I just activated onto Page Plus. I sort of followed a guide to change the PRL and flashed the latest Page Plus PRL to the phone, manually entered my MDN, MSID and then did OTA programming. Talk and text work fine. I can't figure how to get data working - but I don't really want it as I use mostly Wifi.
Anyhow, as I said voice is working and I am sure that the correct PRL is in use - however, the bars on the phone are showing that I am roaming. I know that the area I am in is definitely roaming for USCC but not for Page Plus (Verizon). I am just wondering why it would still display as roaming even though I am flashed to a different PRL? I would like to get this fixed somehow as I would like to know for sure when I am truly roaming on Page Plus. I am on the stock USCC software. Any ideas?
UPDATE: Fixed this by flashing a modified Verizon PRL found in this thread.
Thanku thanku !!!!!

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.

This -^
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.

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!
I have an EVO on Boost and I updated the PRL and since I get no service at all. I have flash like 30 different prls and same thing. I did a bunch of searching on the issue and cant come up with anything. What do I do?? Any help is appreciated. Thanks.
Ummm...try the EVO thread.

Well, which PRL are you on now?
Do you get an error?
If so, can you be more specific about it?
Are you sure roaming is disabled and set to home only?
I learned I had to re-apply all my settings but now I cant seem to get 3g working at all and everything is set up right just as before..??
