I used 11115 and now 11119. I still get a lot of 1xrtt and incoming calls go to voicemail. Which one is the best PRL?
Thanks

When using roam control I think it defaults to 1x data speeds, I don't know if a different PRL would make a difference.
I use 01337 without roam control. I may be missing something, but when using a custom prl, I do not see a need for using roam control.

11115 & 11119 will both connect to Verizon towers in 3G when you force roam using Roam Control. I am currently on 11119 and it is working perfect. I am on the Blu Kuban rom so I have the 1x mod and I can confirm 3G does work. Could it be the area your in??

sometimes, I get 3g but a lot of times I get 1x. I'm in Baltimore and we have plenty 3g/4g towers for sure.

Is there anything that exists that will allow the phone to force to roam instead of sprints service?
I am currently in an area that has next to no sprint but full roaming and the phone will get hung up on trying to connect back to sprint service and I'll lose data until I airplane mode and back.
I'm not looking for a permanent fix, but maybe just an app or kernel that will allow me to actually use the phone.
Any and all help is greatly appreciated!

Roam control ...if you use 11115 prl. It can 3g roam too

Awesome! Just installed roam control so I will give that a whirl. What's the 11115 prl hack? Is it better than the prl update that just went through last week?
Sent from my SPH-D710
Unless you are on a business account when you go into "roaming" you roam 1X data. The 11115 PRL is a business PRL that still allows you to roam 3G.
For some reason when I load the 1115 PRL I only get 3g speeds for about 1/2 an hour, then it goes back to 1x. I have tried reloading a couple of different times and still the same thing. I use roam control to switch over to Verizon and that works just dandy, but no 3g speeds. Its the weirdest thing, anyone else have the same issues?
i have same exact problem i am on 1x all the time after 11115 prl
will wait for answer otherwise going to take it back to sprint let them fix it..
Maybe the area ur in doesn't have 3g on vz? I know there's one area I go to that there's barely a vz signal with 1x

1115 only gives 3 g in 5 states. I'm not sure which ones. Chances are 1115 will have no effect for you. If you want 3g you need to use 0001 otherwise your stuck on 1x

Also there is an app in the market called netmonitor it will tell you what if you are roaming.
If the "carrier " says sprint , your not roaming.
It also says the network type you are on.

Man what the hell I'm totally jelous...
Try out roam control. It's been mentioned in these forums before and it works great. Unfortunately it's not on the market anymore but you can buy it directly from the developers website. I use it at work where I get hardly any sprint service and it roams on 3G perfectly. It also helps out my battery because the phone isn't constantly trying to switch from roaming to local. I think the site is roamctrl.com.
I use Roam Control in Atlanta and it works great and I do indeed receive Verizon 3G on my phone. But Roam Control can't magically give you 3G if it's just not available on PRL 11115 in your area. I would try a different PRL but please be wary of roaming all the time. Sprint will eventually be very upset with you.

Can anyone else confirm whether or not this is true? 3g with prl 1115 only works in 5 states?
Use the search button or try it yourself.
It's not hard to load a pro,
Netmonitor will tell you if your roaming and if you have 3g

It works in Houston, Texas area. When my discount with Sprint was through Dish Network all my devices would have the business PRLs. I found a way to change my discount from 16% to 20% by creating a AOL email. Anyway since doing that I no longer get the business PRLs. Not worth the 4%, since I no longer work with Dish Network I am stuck with this AOL discount

I'm not sure that is correct... I am in Pennsylvania and both 1115 & 1119 give me 3g in forced roam all the time. Both Alltel & Verizon are good to go.

try a different prl, the hacked 1337 is the only one that will give me 3g roaming
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1267893
I've been using 1115/1119 in CA and am now getting 3g speeds when roaming. That's when Sprint doesn't push the stupid 60686 to my device.
11115 Works for 3g in Seattle area... and +1 to Roam Control...
I don't understand why it doesn't work. I put Samsung as the phone device under settings. It just gets LOS whenever I hit roam. I emailed the dev shortly after purchase and he hasn't responded.
Any suggestions?
I'm on PRL 60687.
EDIT: FF02 radio, CM9 alpha 5 (no mods added).
EDIT2: It hasn't work for me on GB or ICS Touchwiz leaks either. Is it just because of my location? I have relatively good sprint signal at home, but I like to use the roamcontrol at my cousins house.
First of all, there is no point in roaming on Sprint's network with their PRL. It will only give you 1G speed anyway. You need to change your PRL according to this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1521343
The 11119 PRL is the one that is normally recommended. It allows you to roam 3g on verizon's network.
That being said, roam control doesn't seem to work for everyone for some reason. You may want to go back to a stock modem and GB if it's not working for you on ICS. I use it on a stock based FE22 ICS kernel but I'm still on EL29 modem. (The ICS modems never seemed to make a big difference for me so I quit trying to keep up )
If you get stuck or need more help, reply here, PM me or reply in the PRL forum for specific help with that too.
After you hit roam, go to your settings and go to your roam settings. Turn off your roaming and then back on. Then disable your roam gaurd. It won't show the roaming icon but it does work. I checked my roaming usage and I am at 2.5GB of roaming. I'll probably get kicked soon.

That's weird lol I got it to connect that way but it said 3g instead of roaming and my speeds are 1mbps+ on prl 60687 (which doesn't use 3g roaming.)

I've been using both 11119 and 60658. Both have the same speeds for me. But when I wasn't roaming on 11119 it was still on Verizons towers. I made a call and I had the wrong number and it was confirmed to be Verizon.

Hi. I was waiting for Roam Control to work on S3 to be able to force roaming whenever I get bad 3G speeds on Sprint, which is quite often.
So now this day have come, but I can't find prl file that would allow 3G speed while roaming! I tried 24006 - still get 1x when roaming.
Modded prl like 00001 etc will just connect to Verizon network full time. Not what I need. And even with this modded prls whenever I'm roaming, still getting 1x speed on Verizon.
Is there no hope? No way to get 3G roaming speed?
12121 is working great for me in Milwaukee. None of the prl's starting with 2 have me 3g roaming. Neither did 11115, which works fine on my S2.

nope.. nothing works for me here in NY
tried 12121 and 11115. still getting 1x speed
anyone got this working in NY? anyone tries to combine prls? surely if I can get 3G speed with 00001 then it is possible to do when roaming as well?

Yeah I know. Don't need that. Just wondering, if 00001 works fine here, then there's gotta be prl that lets me do 3G roaming.
Tried 12123, same thing. 1x speed.
I am using 12124 and have 3g roaming (when available).

Yeah I know. But I also hate touchwiz. And can't switch prls on CM10. I guess you can't have everything...
I'm interested in being able to roam on Verizon, since Sprint is a POS at my school and home, and I'm constantly loosing messages, and data speeds are very sad. Anyways, I did a quick search and found a guide on changing the PRL to Sprint's "Corporate PRL" which apparently grants roaming with 3G data on Sprint, but it seems as if though that guide is old (Sept 19 from last year) and I'm not sure it'll work on my ROM (AOKP JB) So, does that guide still work? Is it safe? If no, what are my other options?
Also, how much minutes/texts/data usage would piss off Sprint? I've been meaning to switch for a while now...

I don't want to get too deep into this since there is a PRL thread in the forums, but doesn't that one force you to roam all the time? Sprint has a roaming limit of something like 200MB a month; if you go over that they can and frequently will cancel the rest of your contact. Some people do that on purpose, which I don't recommend or advise. If you just want to use your phone when you don't have much of a signal, use a PRL like 11115 along with the app Roam Control, that way you control when the phone roams.
yes.. oooo2 or w.e is a verizon prl roaming 100%.. i used the sprint corp prl i think 11124 or something which wasnt roaming while set to home only. but would have verizon 3g while in roam only with roam control which is compatible with jb now... however if using verizon eventually u will get a call from sprints roaming team.. and the prl thread is right. just need to be on a tw rom and when u go back to a aosp rom prl will stay until u update it
