For anyone interested in changing their PRL, the method is as simple as ever.
This is on a Sprint phone but should work with any CDMA carrier.
*I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE IF YOU BRICK YOUR DEVICE*
This guide using only your phone works for most PRLs. I would recommend trying this first; in order for it to work, I had to put the device in and out of airplane mode right before changing the PRL. This method worked on most PRLs I've tried, including 00001, 00002, 11115, and 11119.
0. Make sure you're on a Touchwiz ROM. This can be stock or modified, as long as it's Touchwiz.
1. Be rooted!
2. Find your MSL using this handy guide over here.
3. Make sure you have downloaded the phone's drivers onto your computer.
4. Open your phone's dialer and type *#7284#"
5.PhoneUtil should now be open. Click on "Qualcomm USB Settings" and select "DM + Modem + ADB." Remember to change this back after you change your PRL.
6. Plug your phone into your computer; let your phone recognize the phone.
7. Download your preferred PRL from the internet. I usually use 11115, but you can use whichever one you find best.
8. Open "Device Manager" on your computer; click on "Ports" and see which COM port your phone is connected to on your PC.
9. Use the program "CDMA Workshop" to connect to your phone by selecting the correct COM port, clicking "Connect," and then clicking "Read."
10. Go to the "Security" tab and put in your MSL into the box under "SPC." Click the "SPC" button and click "Send." It should say that the phone is unlocked.
11. Under PRL in the "Other" tab, click "Write" and select the PRL you want to switch to.
12. It should say that it successfully wrote; exit the program and let it reboot the phone when it asks.
13. Enjoy your new PRL!
When I get access to my friend's GS3 (was expecting to on the 15th, didn't have the chance) I will update with Verizon PRLs and confirm that this works on Verizon.
Please unzip the files attached in order to get to the .PRL files.

The method using your phone only works just fine ONLY using touchwiz launcher. I was using Apex launcher and it didnt work, As soon as i switched back to touchwiz launcher, worked fine right away. Im in NYC and Long Island and im using 11115 PRL. So far it seems to be the most stable.
The 11115 and 11119 PRL's don't actually put me on the Verizon towers in Madison, WI. The only one that actually does is the 00001 PRL. I'll mess around with them when I'm out in Vegas next week and see If I get different results there. I basically just want a PRL that actually gives me service above floor 50 in Vegas
By the way the AnyCut PRL update method works great on the GS3! One click solution!

I'm from Long Island as well and never really roam that much, but I'm using 11115. And I'm actually in Vegas right now on vacation but have pretty good Sprint service and haven't roamed at all yet, so I can't say how good 11115 is here, either lol.

Data Menu
I wrote the Anycut post in the GNex forums linked in OP and have just got my GS3 yesterday. I noticed fiddling around in the ##DATA# menu that there is a PRL Write option without needing your MSL (View option). When selecting it it says no test.prl on your sd card. So I'm guessing it will work without the need of your MSL or anycut. I'll test more later once I decide which PRL to use and let you guys know my findings.

It is indeed under ##data#/View/PRL Write. No msl required. And it works with blazer rom, whereas any cut doesn't.

After trying the PRL write method a few times I've found that it will only allow me to write the 11115 PRL and a few other unmodified ones. I'm not sure if this problem is universal, but the method I described should work with all PRLs AFAIK

Does changing your PRL force the phone to roam onto these networks, or will you still need to use something like Roam Control to force your phone to roam?

It makes you connect to Verizon towers as if you were not roaming, as if you were on a home network. But any data you use there will still count as roaming data in the Sprint bill. So no, you don't need to use Roam Control.
Which btw still isn't working with this phone. I emailed the developer twice, and no response so far.
sweet, it worked for me!

I imagine that
1) There's no agreement between Sprint and Verizon to use each other lte towers.
2) LTE access is controlled by an lte sim card, and you would need a Verizon lte sim card to use their lte.

all it does is forces your phone to roam of a vzw tower. you will always roam. the dialer code for us is actually ##3282#. and most hacked prl's (00001 00002 01337 etc) will not write using the phone itself you must use something like qpst/cdma workshop to apply. personally i tend to drop to 1x when i use any of those but i dont know if thats just me or not. to apply name the prl your trying to "test.prl" and put on the root of your sd card. hit ##3282# in the dialer and when the menu comes up hit view. at the bottem hit PRL write and then the button that pops up after. It will apply and reboot. Cant hurt nothing but most likely wont work from the phone. results may very. from what i remember only one that worked for me writing from the phone was 01337 however all three didnt get me 3g. good luck

Ive tried it before and yes using ##DATA## to write a Roaming PRL (I tried 00001) DOES work and will get you 3G if there is a strong enough Verizon signal.
Thanks for all the info you guys I got the wrong impression when I first read about it
Didn't know where to put it huh?

actually they will with Any Cut. But using the 00001 PRL is dumb. Use a Sprint Corporate PRL like 11115, 11117, or 11119. They also allow roaming on 3g and when roam control is working on our phone you'll be able to toggle between Sprint and Verizon.

Ya any cut is good for it too. Never mess with the prls myself anyway. None give me 3g and even if it did 300 mb ain't **** wen u actually have a usable connection.I'd burn that up super quick. Can't even DL a ROM with it don't see the point

See you just asked a question as well. Then looks like your post to him should have been posted in the proper thread as well. (Q&A) Your right pretty simple. No biggie. He made a mistake. I know you never made a mistake.
You know, Im getting sick of people posting **** that they should know doesnt belong in the development thread. @Autorail - read the rules before you post. You cant post in development when you first get an account for a reason. It gives you plenty of time to read the rules. There is a sticky on the first page of development. If you bothered to read it, it says:
Only the following topics are allowed in DEVELOPMENT area:
[DEV] - Development for any special projects or Apps
[ROM] - Custom ROMs
[KERNEL] - Custom Kernels
[MOD] - Hack & Modifications for the phone
[FIX] - Fixes for known issues & bugs
[R&D] - Research & Development for Devs only, when gathering data for a new projects
[HOWTO] / [GUIDE] - How to instructions and Guides
If whatever you are posting doesnt fall into any of those categories, than it goes somewhere else.
I hate seeing this crap on every freaking device. READ, READ, READ, and use the SEARCH BUTTON.
If I would of known people would be getting butt hurt because of a honest mistake I wouldn't of posted in the first place . Hinges mistake so what give me a warning suspend or cancel my account doesn't matter you guys get but hurt to easily haha
Download 00001.prl, put in in the root of internal storage - /sdcard. Rename it to test.prl, disable mobile data, from phone dialer - ##3282#, choose view, choose write prl, choose write prl. After reboot, reenable mobile data and you should be roaming on Verizon, possibly roaming with 3g speeds.
You can confirm this by going to Settings/About/Status, where PRL will be "1".
To reset back to Sprint prl, go to Settings/System Updates, then do Update Profile, then Update PRL.

PRL is a list of roaming towers available to your phone. It will NOT improve your Sprint coverage but may add additional roaming towers in your area. I don't know what changes are included.
Edit: Current version 25015
Tested this out and it killed my connection. Obviously PRLs depend on your unique situation. With me it dropped dl to 50 kb/s and ul to 25 in my area that only has 3g.. Ouch. I went back to 11114 which magically alliws me to download at 500 dl and ul.

Ah sorry yes. Custom prl
For a normal prl update you need some form of data connection enabled so it can check for and/or download the latest one
When I try to update my data profile (because of VERY slow 3G speeds on my E4GT converted to Boost) I get "The profile update could not be completed. Error: Unknown error". Sometimes, I also get the Error 67, that my Sprint data username and password are incorrect. The E4GT is on a stock GB ROM.
The 3G symbol and arrows take several seconds to appear after I take the phone out of airplane mode, sometimes requiring a restart, and even then, once they appear, they sometimes stay greyed out even though apps are asking for data. When the arrows do go green and orange to indicate active data transfer, it's VERY slow, almost 1x like.
Also, sometimes, far far more often than my Galaxy S1, the signal bars will drop from very good signal (full or almost full) to half or to almost none, then come back up.
'
In testing my 3G connection speed with the Ookla Speedtest.net app right now, my first test got a 962ms ping, a download of 121kbps, and an upload of 152kbps. Two further tests resulted on "network communication issues) with the 3G icon's arrows being greyed out. It was on the Witchita, KS server. I could not get it on the San Francisco server that my Galaxy S1 tested on, as the listbox to choose the server would not scroll to server more than about 1,000 KM away.
For reference, in the same spot, my Sprint/Samsung Galaxy S1 (on Boost, with the same account that's now on the E4GT - Neither is on the network at the same time as the other) scores thus: 126ms ping, a download of 470kbps, and an upload of 797kbps. It was on a local (to me, as in, in my city) server, San Francisco.
Help!
Not saying I know anything about being on Boost but found a couple of XDA threads that talk about Profile/Prl updating on Boost and tweaks for speeds on 3g/4g and wifi.
I'm sure there's a better/quicker answer from the Boost folks here but this might help get you started if you haven't seen them.

Thanks. I saw the first thread you linked (In fact, that's how I got my OG Epic onto Boost) and did use it (and others) to get my S2 onto Boost. But where in there do you see talk of resetting the radio?
As far as the second thread, I haven't done those tweaks on my OG S1, and it gets MUCH faster data than this S2, so it must be something else.

peryp9 said:
I fixed the problem. Here's what I did, just in case someone else's phone experiences the same symptoms.
-from the dialer, type ##3282# ...
-click EDIT and type your MSL code
-select EVDO from the menu
-I waited about 3 seconds while the signal bars and the 3G icons disappeared ... then I waited another couple of seconds for the icons to re-appear
-then I pressed the back button until I was back in the Home screen
NOTE: I didn't change any settings during this procedure, the 3G restored itself just by entering and exiting this menu
It looks like the radio resets during this procedure and everything restores back to normal. It's interesting that updating the Profile and the PRL did not help, even though the radio resets itself after performing said updates.

I tried the radio reset procedure you quoted, but it had no effect. Here's a video (4m, 14s) showing me trying the reset procedure and a speed test afterward, as well as my profile update difficulties.

I have not set a PRL. The only thing I tweaked was to remove the Sprint proxy in ##3282, though this did not help my speeds. When I bought the phone it had a bad ESN, so I never activated it on Sprint, only on Boost.

Only thing i would think to try is flashing a one click, since I've seen others on boost that says it doesn't change keys etc, and seeing of that helps.
Wish i had more experience with boost to be of any help.

I tried a one click back to EL29 (Gingerbread) last night since I read that I must be on a GB ROM to install CWM and proceed from there. No change in speeds, still have the error 67 registration failure.
Further, I rolled my OG Epic 4G back to stock so that I could get at the dialer codes and get it recognized in QPST, read its settings and saved them to a file, then opened up my E4GT in a window beside it. I then duped all the M.IP and PPP Config settings. I also checked the NAM settings to make sure they agreed.
No luck, I'm still having the same issues, while my OG Epic 4G is not.
My prl,,firmware,profile wont update neiher.. It states that the Error code 6204 ..im calling Sprint to see if anything could be done.
advice
Hey you may want to edit the first pic shows way too much info ......phone number meid etc .....
PRL 2000 is an emergency prl I dont know the specific details but in the sprint prl update thread its been happening to alot of people what you can do is manually update your prl to say 25013/15 or 55015 or something like that or try the modded verizon prls they're doing great for me

I had the same error even after going back to stock. Sprint rep said that they have no record of that error and didn't know how to handle it. He reset the phone with ## commands (sorry don't remember) then the phone wouldn't activate. Took back to best buy and the Samsung rep flashed something, no help. I have a replacement now. I hope you have better luck.

I can help you out because I was going through the same problem.
Here's the thread to the list of all PRLs (don't worry about it being in the S3 section, they are the same for the Note II): http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1880781
Also, if you run accross the issue of not seeing the "PRL write" in the ##DATA# menu, you need to go here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2159054 and flash the MA4 zip. I'm running MC2, and it worked for me. Also, there's some tricks to get the prls to stick when you write them. First, name the PRL "TEST.prl" (all caps). Second, turn your data off before doing the prl write.
This is my first post, so give me a thanks if I did any good
My setup:
Sprint Note II LPH-L900
Rooted stock ROM (MC2)
Kernel: Perseus-alpha36
PRL: 55015 (I'm still looking looking around, though)
My final note: I <3 Xposed Framework
Disclaimer: I don't have a clue what I'm talking about. I can't program or read code. I just look up stuff on Google. If this bricks your phone, don't blame me. Make a backup!
Lol I didn't realize Chris already posted the PRLs thread. I figure why not throw in some screenshots of the dialer steps and menu You should see. I also wanted to show off the theme I came up with.

I get that a lot when they're working on our towers. Only fix is to wait and keep trying. Sometimes it can last a bit but sometimes it can go on for days. A work around I found was to switch from LTE mode to CDMA and let it reprovision on evdo. On evdo the chances of programming are better. It's weird but it works for me most of the time when ehrpd keeps giving me that error. Also I would like to point out that you're roaming and its just a hunch but maybe you can't update while roaming as you're on Verizon's network and not Sprint's which I think is required to pull ur info from.

Its cool you helped more than I did but if thats true about having issues with updating then that happened to me about twice so far meaning about them working on the tower

Yea I learned that the hard way.. If you get that error while trying to update your profile or prl a handsfree activation is the worst thing you could do. Was stuck with a non working phone with a phone number of 0000003410 or something like that. The reason why I assume it's tower work related is because the problem is on ehrpd only. Once I switch to CDMA mode the process gets completed whether I'm on evdo or 1xrtt. In OP's case though I think it's roaming related.

I had sprint change my username & I had to reset phone by ##72786# once the phone rebooted i let it run the Hands Free Activation and it worked..
I could swear, like others, that I'm having better results with 55015 than 2000. Time will tell still, but previously i was seeing no network connection far too often, signal bars but no 3G or 4G. Have had constant connection so far since switching to 55015 lat night, and i hope it continues, and i hope i dont have any call/text issues due to 800 mhz band or whatever.
Was such a shame to have such a nice phone with such crappy service!
