How fix PRI. READ IF YOU HAVE FLASHED ANY DEV ROM

Ok so as most of the users on this website have learned, alot of people who have flashed DC2.0 are having PRI issues.
Following PRI's that are not effected by this problem are
1.70_003
1.68_003
2.10_003
This problem was first noticed on Damageless's DamageControl2.0. The reason it was noticed is because this is an official sprint rom that includes all the Sprint applications. As most people have noticed that a month or so ago people couldn't use sprint tv with alot of roms because of the "You must be a sprint user" error. The cause of this issue is believed to be the ERIS leak a few weeks back. If you have flashed ANY rom that was based off this leak you probably have a bad PRI.This includes but not confined to, ANY DAMAGE CONTROL ROM, ANY FLIPZ ROM AFTER 2.0b, AND ANY ROM THAT IS BASED ON ERIS This must fixed by retrieving you MSL and doing the instructions i will add to the end of this post. If you do not correct the PRI then when official leaks are released you will get many errors.
Now that i have explained all this please do not point fingers at anyone because this problem was completely unknown by anyone and everyone.
Here is how to fix the problem
YOU ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR RETRIEVING YOUR MSL THROUGH LEGAL MEANS WHICH MEANS CALLING SPRINT AND ASKING FOR IT.
After you have your MSL follow these instructions http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=6006539&postcount=1405
and then you should have a correct Sprint PRI.
PLEASE DOWNLOAD FRESH 1.1 AND DO EVERYTHING STATED HERE IN THAT ROM. I CANT STRESS THIS ENOUGH BECAUSE PEOPLE ARE HAVING PROBLEMS ON 2.1 BUILDS
Let me emphasize that in doing testing with this problem RUU was NOT successful in returning the PRI. The only solution that has worked 100% is the ##786#, Enter your MSL, and re-provisioning your phone. Please try to find other solutions and discuss the outcomes in this thread.
Here are specific simple walkthrough. DO THIS IN A 1.5 ROM
1.Call Sprint and get your MSL. Keep calling and asking if it doesnt work the first time. Or go online and switch to another phone.
2. After you get the MSL go into a 1.5 ROM and bring up the dialer and press "##786# CALL"
3. It will initialize and the Reverse Logistics Support menu will come up with information.
4. After it has loaded press menu hardkey and then push reset.
5. Enter your MSL as password.
6. Your phone will reset and go into recovery. just push reboot system
7. Continue waiting an it will reboot again
8. After the last reboot all of your info including your PRI will be back to normal.
9. now update PRL and PROFILE to ensure success.
10. after all that you can nandroid any rom thats not eris based. I suggest darchlegend, Flipz 2.0, or DC2.0
IF YOU GO INTO OPTIONS AND SEE SPRINT AS YOUR CARRIER AND YOUR LOCKSCREEN HAS SPRINT THEN YOU HAVE FIXED THE ISSUE.
Special thanks goes to MrTip for finding the fix
Damageless for releasing the rom to find this problem.
Below for Developers________________________________________
After extensive testing i found the roms based on the Eris build will change the PRI. I am not 100% why but they do. It has to be something in the update-script to mess with the /radio partition. Anyone who can give further insight to this please PM me.

When I dial ##3424# and hit call I get a message that the number or code I dialed is invalid and to try again. Am I missing something

This worked great for me! I did the MSL reset right over the 2.0 Damage rom, however, when I rebooted it would not do the Handset update. I had to wipe and re-install the ROM. Everything working now.
Nice find guys, and Damage if you are watching this thread....nice work

mmm... im a little confused with the instructions provided on the linked post... can you plz clarify... i understand how to obtain my msl, but were do i go from there? the post just says to enter that one code and then the msl but i dont get any option to enter a msl #.
So far this is what i think im supposed to do,
do i need to (##enter code#)press menu -> reset, and then enter the msl as the password?
just want to be completetly clear before i go ahead and mess with it, thanks

I just Created this Software so even though you Dialer dont Support ## Code you can Trigger is via PC
Just place adb.exe and Depdencies on C:\Winodws and use this Software it is made on MS.net

Yeah instructions are unclear I get the same thing, but it wont even let me put in my MSL as a password its too long...

Well PRI is just a Number Showing Exact Programming Protocol
i think Sprint TV dont work Becuase of Improper RTSP Proxy IP and Port
use this Dialer code or use mobile5dm.exe and Trigger that Screen
##3282# - SPC - Advanced
RTSP (Real time Streaming Protocol) and See what u can see in
RTSP Proxy Port
RTSP Proxy Address

Is there a password? I'm confused I didn't need to use my MSL infact when I used the code to access it, it showed my MSL number in the list... I hit ok with out putting a password in and nothing. I tried using my MSL number as the password nothing. Is there some step I'm missing?

[Q] fb chat problem

fb chat is really annoying, it shows me online all the tile can't put it off.
When i chat with som1 the messeged are delayed or arrive in wrong order. do i need to reinstall the app?
I'm not rooted, is there already a good way to s-off, root.
i'm kinda noob in this, thanks alot

and i have no xtc-clip

just heard i can unlock the bootloader with HTC-dev. after that i'm able to root...
Problem is i have never worked with skd, adb.. I don't really know what could go wrong if i just follow a guide and don't know what i'm doing.
Should i just try and see what happens?

Go to htcdev.com and follow the instructions to unlock your bootloader
You'll need software version 1.54 or higher tho, you can check in Menu>Settings>About Phone>Software Information
If you have a lower version than 1.54, than you need to update with this RUU:
swtesting.ro/alex/downloads/ruu_chacha_htc_asia_wwe_1.57.707.2_radio_47.23.35.3033h_7.51.35.19_release_228383_signed.zip
To update with this RUU, you'll need a goldcard:
theunlockr.com/2010/03/10/how-to-create-a-goldcard/
..then you are good to go with htcdev unlock
After that, search "everything for chacha" in the forum and you'll find instructions how to easily root your chacha I know it's long winded, but it's worth it

I found it annoying too, I uninstalled it
In the meanwhile, going into facebook chat and clicking "Menu>Go Offline" is a temporary fix until you reboot

thanks alot, i will try to unlock today.
Once unlocked ill try a simple root program. (zroot or something like that) if that doesn't work ill follow a guide for the long way.

No problem I found an easier goldcard guide here if you're interested http://droid-den.com/android-guides/android-guide-how-to-create-a-gold-card/
I just flashed superuser in clockwordmod recovery, and I had root
Rooting is dead simple, just the unlocking which takes longer to do
If you need any help, I've done it, so ask away

HTCdev Link Broken?

Hey All!
Couldn't find anyone else having issues with this...But, I've registered/logged into the htcdev website, and when I click on 'Begin Unlock Bootloader' for 'all other supported models' nothing happens! I've tried this on 3 different browsers. None of which are doing anything.
Am I missing something. My phone is hooked up, but I assumed that the link would take me to a file to download. Can someone confirm?
Thanks,
Dan

Its something wrong with their website, I was having the same issue
What you do:
Mouse over each of the buttons to find their target URL and then manually type in the URL. Do that for each button untill you get to the unlock process.

Works for me with latest firefox

I had to stop in the middle of the superCID because they never sent the activation email. I was looking through forums and since mid-April they've been looking into getting a bigger server because they're getting too packed.. dont know if this has to do with server issues or what.. hoping I get it soon.

[Q] How can I make my phone run less sluggishly?

Hey
I have HTC desire s, which is pretty old (i'v had about three years now). In recent months it has started to run more and more sluggishly. After I re-downloaded a game that I played when I first got the phone I realized that my phone had experienced some power-loss, as the game that used to run smoothly now lagged. It wasn't so big deal as I do not play games with my phone so often, but now it feels like apps that I use and pretty much need like whatsapp and internet browser are also starting to lag more.
So now I am trying to find some way to restore my phone do the state it was when I first got it.
I have done almost everything that you can do with an un-rooted phone. (Ram,cache,apps...) I also did "factory reset" which actually seemed to help for a while, but soon the problem came back.
I tried also rooting my phone with super-one-click, but even I followed instructions "perfectly" and the app said my phone is rooted it actually wasn't.
I can try it again if it's necessary.
Thank you for Answers and I apologize for being a noob.

The toolkit provides steps to "Unlock bootloader" via HTCdev.com. You need it unlocked to root or flash a custom recovery.
PLS read exactly and keep in mind that unlocking the bootloader will reset your phone to stock. MAKE SURE you safe ALL your PERSONAL DATA before you proceed.

When I press install HTC drivers a mesage pops up saying that it will install them, but after that nothing happens. I looked from youtube that a install wizard should pop up, but nothing happens. So what should I do as I think that those drivers aren't being installed.

You connected your phone in "fastboot" mode?
It toolkit fails (its important that you haven't change the folder name of the toolkit!)
We can do manually --> Go to HTC dev --> http://www.htcdev.com/bootloader/ select "All other supported models" you also will have to register.
and you need this adb/fastboot http://d-h.st/KIP

My bootloader should now be unlocked

Dead Mother's locked Velvet

I searched the forum for this and maybe I missed something but I can't find help anywhere.
My mother recently passed and we're trying to crack open her LG Velvet. She was very secretive about passwords and such and I can't break passed her finger pattern lock screen. Everything I've found says I can wipe her phone clean and it'll be clear but we need in to access her information and photos, we don't know what details she kept on her phone so we desperately need in. Does anyone know a way we can get passed the lock screen without erasing data? We've tried 55 times all the patterns we think she used but it's so far to no avail. We have T-Mobile, of which I called. They can't help so they sent me to LG and they can't help.
PLEASE SOMEONE HELP!!!

Id u can get an custom recovery installed on that go to /Data/system/ and erase all files with lockscreen name on it and it would remove the pattern
