Yeah, he means PRL. Those two terms get mixed up so much that I've sort of become numb to it.
However, I do have a question. I'm currently running an AOSP ROM, and I don't get the PRL update option like I do with Sense ROMs. There is a software update option in the Settings->About menu, but it just says that everything is up to date (I currently have PRL 60674). Is there any way to do a PRL update in AOSP, or do I have to flash a Sense ROM to do it (ugh, and probably not worth it)?

quick PRL def from what i've read on here, "Public Radio License" it just says what radio towers your phone can use.
Sense roms with downgraded ESPT or something can flash Verizon PRLs to use Verizon towers, i tried this in the same spots tethering through laptop.
Sprint PRL i avg'd 700kbps download and 120ping(would spike every 3-4 seconds to 800~)
Verizon PRL i avg'd 1.3mbps download and 300ping(very steady...never spiked)
on CM7, to lazy to restore a Sense rom just to update PRL...lol, maybe later when I flash my phone again in a day or so.
EDIT: PRL means Preferred Roaming List....i stand corrected. wutevs =D close enough

PRL does not mean "Public Radio License" Did you just make that up to sound cool, Nrre?
PRL is Priority Roaming List. Basically it tells your phone which towers/frequencies to prefer.

If you have 4G connectivity issues on a rooted ROM try flipz's fix: http://bugs.geekfor.me/view.php?id=24
This doesn't do anything that switching airplane mode on and off wont do unless u have manually replaced ur prl file to something else. The phone came with prl 60665 and thats what the prl update gives you.

i must give sprint and the evo props.
from etown kentucky to nashville i had 3G 100% of the time. good speed. never lost signal. and incredible 4G in nashville (didnt know they had it)

Well ok, if this helped someone then I'll gladly be wrong.
Looking over in the HERO forum someone has found out away to modify the phone.apk to include a roam only option. Wondering if this was possible for the evo as well. I tried using the apktool but the files do not match.
Heres the link:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=745092
I'm sure it's possible. If I remember correctly when I was using CyanogenMod Nightlies, there was an option for this (it wasn't call roam only but im sure thats what it did).
Yeah this is where all of this started.... Now someone has ported it to the hero and I would really like to see if this is possible for the hero.
Why would you want to force Roam only?

I know I would. I used to do it on my Pre while I was at work.. I work in radio and in the lower level of our building in production studios all day and my signal is very weak. Forcing the phone into roam helped me have better battery life, and a more stable phone if I got a call or something.
Roam only on the Evo would be very nice!

This is the same reason why I need it..... I used it on my pre all the time as well when at work and in other areas where coverage was very spotty
I have the phone.apk (from Fresh 3.1.01) decompiled and I have made the noted changes from the original Hero thread and I'm ready to test, but I'm having fits on compileing the apk to sign and test. Can someone else try, the modifications are simple to edit.

I am not running Fresh.... Wish I knew a little more about programing. I tried the apktool mentioned in the post but the rom I use has a different dialer setup than fresh's. I wonder if he would be willing to help.
I would love to have this option in a widget, shortcut, or some other method that makes it easy to toggle on and off. There were registry edits on my old HTC WinMo phones to enable this.
I have very good Sprint coverage most of the time but every once in a while I'm somewhere Verizon has better coverage. I've seen my phone hold onto Sprint with one or even no bars, and only switch to Verizon every once in a while and get full bars. This kills the battery and of course service.
Could someone post the original stock 2.2 phone.apk (unthemed). I think that the themeing on the dialer is what is causing my issues with rebuilding the .apk. This could cause issues with the htc framework used, just my .02. We should be able to port this over.
I modded the apk for Fresh 3.1.0.1, try it out and let me know if it works:

Unfortunately I keep getting FC's after moving this one over the old one. Rebooted the phone and still no luck. I feel like something is different with the framework or something. Could theme changes (Rosie) in this ROM be the issue? What did you do to rebuild the apk. I worked a few hrs after I moded it from your instructions trying to rebuild using APKmanger. I greatly appreciate your efforts. Trial and error, we'll get there with the EVO!!! Thanks!
I would love this app also

U dont get charged for roaming it just comes out of your anytime minutes if you do not have an unlimited plan. If u have unlimited then it costs nothing
Any one have any progress to report on this
One thing that may work: load CM6, set it to affiliated networks, then restore back to your previous ROM.
It may not work, but I know on my N1, if I would set it to WCDMA only to prevent the 3G dropping to EDGE, then that would stay sticky over flashes & wipes etc.
The settings are stored in the radio, so I think setting it to roam only should stick.

Sprint doesn't charge for domestic voice or data roaming. They reserve the right to cancel your account if you roam for more than half your minutes or a specific amount of data (I can't remember how much), so it's not the kind of thing you'd leave on all the time. But there are situations where it would be beneficial to force roaming for a short period of time.
i'd def be interested in this. im using fresh.
I've been reading that Canadian wireless company Rogers is going to be getting the Samsung Captivate.
I'm curious if it would be possible to get the system dump from it to gain access to all of the stuff AT&T had cut out.
In theory they would be exactly the same, just changing out carrier codes and such.
I know it's a bit early to really know, but it sure would be nice.
Sorry, I'm new so I can't post links yet.
It should be possible if it is the same model.
rogers usually leaves the phones stock with all the features intact.
thats why ive decided to wait for them to get it in a couple weeks, instead of ordering it from the states.

All the stuff AT&T cut out, like what? Sideloading apps? A few thethering apps from the Market? I'm certain it won't have as much bloatware as the AT&T version.
Does Rogers have any other Android apps? AT&T is the only one to really "restricts" the Android experience. I'm rooted, sideloaded, and bloat free, and it wasn't hard at all. I just made backups before and after every step. But to each their own

Main thing i want from Rogers, is the HSPUA enabled radio
Rogers does not block unknown sources on their Androids. However they may install some bloatware such as Telenav, a "My Account" app, MySpace, etc, and they may throw in some preloaded bookmarks that won't go away. Again, rooting will easily tweak this.

This is exactly what I'm waiting for. And I can't wait for somebody to build a 2.2 AOSP ROM. That will be sweet.
Lets go Roger's Captivate. I am so ready to get HSUPA speeds. It is a complete bummer to know my phone is being crippled by AT&T.
has there been any more news/rumors to when rogers is coming out with the captivate?

So anyway, I tried searching and most of the time I wouldn't know what to search for. I am deployed to a place in the desert and I have my HTC Inspire 4G rooted with a Wataniya Prepaid Sim installed. The phone works fine for the exception that I pay 70ish bucks a month for 40KD, in which 20KD is used for my unlimited internet called NetToPhone. Anywho, the problem is this. Appareantly my radio I am using is not "compatable" with the towers here, so 3G is out of the question. I have been searching and searching and talking to the Hindu people here to try and figure out why I was not receiving 3G service when my line is set for it and I had FINALLY stumbled upon something today saying my radio is not capable? I flashed my radio and ROM twice since receiving my Inspire and everytime I has an issue I come here.
With that being said, I am asking if anyone is familiar with radios and 800MHz and 1900MHz bands and towers and all that other nice stuff, and if someone could tell me which radio would be appropriate for me to use to recieve my 3G service here for the duration of my deployment. I can always flash back to a US radio if I need to when I return back to the states.
My phone information :
Andriod Ver - 2.3.5
Sense - 3.0
Soft. Number - ARHD 6.1.2
Kernel Ver. - 2.6.35.14-RCMIX-ARHD-5.0
BB Ver. - 12.62.60.27P_26.13.04.19_M
Build Number - 3.06.405.1 CL150597
MODS :
ARHD No Sense 0.16
ARHD FullTrans QSXL 6X 0.1
I check this site pretty religiously for updates to my ROM, radio, and MODS and incase anything new and fancy comes out that I can force feed this little guy. Also, my email is [email protected]... Any help is appreciated.

First of all thank you serving.
Unfortunately. I got some bad news. our inspire are not 3g compatible with most of the world(Canada and Australia excluded). They use the 900 and2100 bands. This is a hardware thing so no radio or rom flashing can change it. You are stuck on edge I'm afraid
I need a new sig
hmm.

I don't have a lot of time, so my search wasn't all that great. I have CM7.1 flashed on my Inspire, and my phone info says it's a DHD. I think that's the reason my data connection is messed up.

To help you, InspireMod is attached to the first post in the AOSPX thread in development.
Also, you might want to just keep it on your SDcard and flash it immediately after flashing any roms that have been ported.
And here I thought we were done with the whole H+ thing. Haven't seen this in ages. Its purely cosmetic doesn't mean anything. Hell I can make it say 6g +++ if I wanted to take the time and edit the icons.
And your right the dhd doesn't have lte and neither does the inspire. The whole 4g is just marketing. Its more like 3.5g Max on a good day. But that doesn't sound as good for selling phones. Personally I think only lte should be 4g, but even then that's a modification of the original qualification (lte advanced)
