[Q] prl update for page plus on alltel htc hero cdma

Hi. I've found this site to be very helpful in my attempts to activate an Alltel HTC Hero cdma on the Page Plus network.
I finally got the phone to make calls, but it says that I'm roaming - there's a triangle above the signal strength meter. I checked it by making a call and it charges me the roaming rate of $0.29 a minute. I think I need an updated .prl file, but I'm not sure.
I'm able to send and receive text. I cannot send or receive MMS or connect to the internet.
Maybe someone here can help me. Please
Phone will be used in Berlin, WI 54923 (Near the following cities: Appleton, Oshkosh, Neenah, Fond du Lac)
Original phone details:
Alltel network, but Alltel is no longer in my area. Alltel customers were sent to Element One. I don't know if this affects what I'm trying to do.
Phone # (MDN) 920xxxxxxx
MSID (MIN) 9202900444
SIN/NID 1/65535
MMS Server url mms.alltel.com/servlets/mms
I rooted the phone and got my MSL (000000) number and made the following changes
Phone # (MDN) 920xxxxxxx
MSID (MIN) 9202799238 (from Page Plus)
SIN/NID 240/65535 (got "240" from Page Plus, they couldn't give me a NID number so I used the same one)
MMS Server url mms.vtext.com/servlets/mms (got this from searching on forums)
I downloaded a .prl file via KittyWireless manual programming instructions kittywireless.com/pageplus/pageplusmanualprogramming.html
I updated the PRL from my sd card by dailing ##775# and "commit changes"
When I make a call, I'm always asked to re-enter the 10 digit phone number I'm trying to reach. I've tried the following OTA programming numbers *228, *22800, *22888, *22890, *22891. I always get the following "Message AP 32 Welcome to US Cellular ..." It should be Verizon or Alltel, right?
I thought I might be using the wrong NID number so I tried 65335 (which I think is for Verizon), but it didn't make a difference. Still roaming and same messages when I try OTA programming.
I don't know if this means anything, but when I dial ##DATA# to edit mode I can choose either Data Profile, EVDO, or Advanced. If I choose EVDO, I get a blank screen. I can't make any changes.
So, I'm thinking I need a different prl file. Would this affect my data connection for internet and MMS too? What do you guys think? Can someone direct me to the right PRL file?
I've spent hours trying to get this phone to work... if you have any suggestions let me know.
Thanks!

PRL Update...
Hi there..
I've found the following PRLs useful when using Sprint Phones on Pageplus, so perhaps they will help with the Alltel Hero. I've used 51425m on my Alltel Hero on Pageplus. Worked like a charm. The 52505m is the latest VZW EvDo PRL.
Noticed the thread is old, but may help anyone else trying to do this.

Ive been trying to get 3g data working with my Nexus S on Pageplus.
All I can get is either a good 1X data connection or a slow, intermittent 3g connection.
I will try these PRL's when I get home.
Thanks!

any luck on getting this working yet ??? I can not find any solutions anywhere

You contact your carriers

Help with network settings

Hello all? I got the G920v, I'm not in the US, although phone came unlocked, but it's stock on H+ and I can't select 2g or 3g as I wish... Is it possible to obtain this with change of rom or by debrand long the phone? Thank you

You can't close between 2g and 3g in any phone, it automatically switches to the better network when available.

Hi. My phone is Samsung galaxy s6 verizon, im from Philippines
I cant send text messages. But i can make voice calls and i can receive text messages. Help me ASAP

LTE is working fine, but no 3g and 2g network!!!!

hello,
I am from India and using Vodafone network. I am facing a very weird problem with my OPO. I am able to receive and use LTE ie I can use internet and send and receive messages.
But the problem starts when I try to make a call. As i dial a no. the phone switches to 3g and I receive a error saying NO NETWORK CONNECTION in about 5-7 seconds. To confirm this problem, I tried to switch to 3g only and 2g only in the network settings. Whenever I select 2g or 3g, my connection is lost and I cant even register to a network
I have tried many other sims including reliance, idea and another vodafone sim with the same result. I have flashed the stock COS file using fastboot to make my phone completely stock including clearing data, internal storage and system. I have tried a lot of roms which never used to give me such a error but the problem persists in all the roms
Please guys help me out
Thank you in advance

I managed to solve the same problem not a long time ago. At the end of this post there are several values you can write in nvram. Try experimenting with the ones.
If it did the trick just don't forget to make a backup of EFS partition

same problem, let me know if you resolve

I think you might need to unlock all bands. Check this out: http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-one/general/guide-unlock-aditional-bands-qualcomm-t2877031
Notes:*Those modifications need to be redone after radio*flashes.*

I will certainly try that..
But is it possible that the bands I need were unlocked earlier and now they are not, beacause 10 days earlier my 2g and 3g networking on this phone were working perfectly...
On that day I messed up a lot of settings in *#*#4646*#*# menu, could this be the possible reason that some of the bands are now locked???And I also want to tell you that all the options like WCDMA only GSM only etc which were earlier available in the menu are still available
Thanks your replies
