Has anyone been able to get Sprint TV apk to work on any of the AOSP ROM's? I tried installing Sprint TV apk on Destroyer ROM about a month ago, but had to switch back to my Sense based Rom b/c I wasn't ever able to get Sprint to actually start playing video. (I really need my mobile CNBC on Sprint TV xtra).
If anyone has any advice, it would be greatly appreciated.
BTW - This is for an HTC EVO 4G.
I'm wondering it could possibly do or if it will be stuck with edge speeds? Tmobile has their own version but it apparently does not have the hardware for voice phone calls--the "voice receiver." Perhaps the tmo modem is flashable to this version?
But would that screw up the voice receiver that the unlocked version has?
Quick answer : NO , you cannot flash it with the Tmobile baseband.
how about on AT&T (US)?
yeah looks like user 'broken' on xda has one working with ATT 3G and is selling it http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1502897

I currently have a EVO 3D unlocked/S-OFF. I was curious if someone can explain this question to me? My guess is that it connects to the 'next' network and it might or might not get data/voice and try another.
Is it the sprint version of the EVO 3d or a gsm? If sprint, what is your PRL number?

I have the Sprint version of the EVO 3D. I am currently running a custom ROM (DisarmedToaster CM10) with no support for PRL that I know of. I have other ROM's with PRL support but I do not really run them. I just would like to know how a custom ROM makes the decision to roam and what network to try to roam on.
The PRL itself determines who you roam on and where it happens. While your rom may not display a PRL, the PRL is still on your phone actively working. AOSP roms like AOKP and CM are not be able to update a PRL so its good to have a compact or "senseless" rom to flash to do such updates since an AOSP rom makes you lose vital tools such as EPST.
I guess to answer your question originally, the rom doesn't use the prl, your phone does. Your phone's network status and PRL determine whether you roam or not. Download a senseless rom or small sense 3.0 rom, do a back up of your current rom and flash this because maybe you need to update your PRL to maybe a corporate one. There is a prl thread on the 3d forums somewhere with a PRL claimed to be a corporate that allows roaming without it being counted as roaming. Then you can restore your old rom.
Hope that helps.

Hi Everyone, I rooted my S3 and I am running Beanstown's Build 10 ROM and I realized the other day up in Canada that I was unable to roam. I was up at Tremblant with the wife and I had no data and voice on my phone. I allowed roaming but did not get any signal. My wife has the exact same phone but hers is plain stock (not rooted no custom rom) had no issues. She was able to roam.
Has anyone expreienced this issue and how do I go about fixing it. The radio that I have on my phone is VRBLK3 which is the same as my wife's phone. However, I had to flashed that upgrade myself while my wife got the upgrade via Verizon's OTA. Thanks.
anyone?
Hi everyone - I have a Verizon S3 that I use without any trouble here in the UK. My network (Three Mobile) will soon be turning on their 4G system, and everyone with a 4G device will be able to use it - including me. The only problem is that in order to use 4G you need an OTA update - whether this update is an actual firmware update or just changes to the APN settings, Three don't seem to want to tell me (or more likely, the Three reps don't know).
This OTA update is only going to be sent to Three branded phones and unbranded phones - meaning my Verizon S3 isn't going to get 4G enabled if I leave it as it is.
What I'm wondering, is if there's a way to load the Verizon S3 4G LTE with a standard Samsung ROM that's totally unbranded. That way I should be able to get Three's update and use 4G.
I'm new to this, and I've never flashed a phone before - all Google seems to bring up is Cyanogenmod, but I think that's a bit more custom than I want - I'm looking for something totally vanilla minus the Verizon junk. Can anyone help point me in the right direction? And has anyone used a flashed Verizon S3 in Europe?
Thanks a bunch,
Noam
Would CleanRom 7 work for this? scottsroms .com/downloads.php?do=file&id=415
I see that it's based on "the latest Verizon released VRBMF1 Jellybean 4.1.2 Base and is De-Odex" - does this mean it will still appear to be a Verizon branded phone? Any ideas?
Thanks again.
