My HTC Evo is reading Verizon wireless when y dial *228 to set up the device.
the problem is I have used the metropcs prl - 0069/02001/02004 and 03011 and no matter what, it stays in roaming "Analog B" and doesnt go to metro.
Sometimes get some american blabla network.
Phone is rooted and with metrodroid 1.2
The cyanogen doesnt give me option to go to ##3424# or ##3282#
And not getting into ##775# at all.
Some help would be appreciated
the ESN is added to metropcs inventory and with a working phone number.
Need it really bad.
thanks
Double check to make sure the Metro PCS PRL sticks. Go to Settings > About Phone > Status and look under PRL.
Also, check to see if your number shows up under "My phone number."

That's strange. How about under MIN? There should be a number that looks like a phone number there.
You could also try going to the Sprint OTA and *228 from there

And when I dial *228 from the cell, verizon comes up to update or register the phone...LOL
Metro has a roaming agreement with verizon. When in one of these roaming zones or sometimes when metro is doing some system maintenance this scenario you describe will occur. When you leave that roaming zone or metro finishes with their system maintenance, whatever the case. Your phone should then just go back to working as before.

Im located in Queen-NY where there is pretty good metropcs coverage,
This is a fresh flashing, has not yet work on metro, Im still trying to get to work.
I've been trying to set it up for 4 days in a roll and its given me only headaches ..lol...
that's why I really need help here.... I have tried few ROM's but it seens to not help at all,,,
Let me ask, is that normal when I go back to QPST -> PPP Config
the Password field be empty? or should there be something that was set before?
Is the prl file to be uploaded to ROAM tab right?
what prl have anybody up running on evo metro?
The EVO will not work on NY. Since there is not PCS band in NY
NY,NJ and some others states only use AWS band which is a new frecuency band not supported by the EVO,
thats why you're on roaming, your EVO can't see any metro network even if you have the latest metro PRL

So, what you mean, I just gotta go to a metropcs area and set up the phone then come back to my area?
will that work?
You're right, Dual bands cellphones will not work on metropcs NY are...
So what about virgin or cricket in NY...?
will they work if flashed over to them?

HOWEVER!!! none of them work on my htc evo 4g I get absolutely no signal. (flashing evo to metro here) and metro service is flawless in my area. it'll get spotty when I drive around but in my home. on my normal metro phone I have full bars. this is my last step before this phone is completely flashed what to do???
sorry to bring a dead thread back to life
but its not working for me either and i have cloned the esn of my huawei ascend into my Evo yet nothing. is still in Analog B
All, my girlfriends Inc2 will not update the PRL. I've flashed the latest stock sense ROM on to it, did *228, and the PRL still stays around 30000 (not sure on specific number). I've noticed from other screen shots people's PRLs are up around 52000. She is still on an old Alltel plan and probably old Alltel towers still around here. I noticed on Sense 3.5 ROMs the locked screen and dialer will always say 31000 instead of Verizon Wireless. PRI is at 1.92_002.
Any suggestions or is this normal?
Thanks.
A PRL (Preferred Roaming List) is specific to providers of service among other things. If you aren't on VZ plan, you won't have the same PRL as a VZ customer.
Are you having signal issues? What happens when you dial *228 and press 1 or 2?

Thanks for the response. She is a verizon customer, she is just has the same plan she had from when she was Alltel. I really haven't noticed signal issues for her per say, it's just I've noticed that her signal bounces around more after this latest radio update. I tried updating the PRL to see if that would make a difference.
*228 option 2 works, but nothing ever changes.
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.
What prl will roam on verizon 3g only i only wanna roam on verizon 3g roam constantly nothing else or what is the fastest only roam prl
00002 will always be roaming on verizon. no need for roam control app.
Hello
I use a regional carrier in Western NC with a Moto milestone plus. To solve roaming issues, I've been running, mostly successfully, with the VZW PRL 52870. This carrier is allowed to roam in VZW, however Sprint is preferred in their default PRL.
The issue I have experienced is that I get no data at all in FL. Literally, a mile after crossing the state line I lose data. I have tried other VZW PRLs without success. If I load a Sprint PRL I get (slow) data. Also when using the default carrier PRL it uses Sprint, except in areas with no Sprint coverage then it goes with VZW without data. For example in the Tindall or Appalachicola areas, VZW only, and guess what - no data!
Can anyone offer a viable suggestion?
Thanks!!!!
