Dear friends, I've two identic htc evo 4g. One of them working properly. Second was not receiving incoming calls. Someone adviced to update radio. i updated radio and PRI Radio-2.15.00.12.19_PRI-2.33 . After that i couldn`t make and receive calls. device showed me on roaming, i allowed data on rouming but still can`t call. On ##786# did hard reset, now device doen`t catch antenna signal. Please help! Can i copy settings and radio and prl from first device?
Thanks.
need to know what carrier you are on. Verizon and Sprint are CDMA/WCDMA as wehre at&t T-Mobile are GSM
the difference being Sprint/Verizon CDMA uses a PRL list as where T-Mobile and AT&T use GSM use a slightly different Method.
From there if its a CDMA type there are ways to check the PRL list and compare.

Hello All.
I recently bought a TP2 CDMA phone which was on US Cellular's network. My infinate wisdom told me I could probably program it for my carrier (Cellcom - NSight). I found the unlock code for EPST and added my setting from a previous EPST file from my old HTC Titan. Gave the ESN to Cellcom and the phone works, except I cannot connect via EVDO. It will only connect to 1X when making calls and accessing the data. I tried updating the tower list with *228, however, it calls USCC and says the number cannot be dialed. I'm guessing there is a setting in EPST or the registry which is still looking at USCC. Does anyone have a clue as to how I can get EVDO to work? I can post the EPST if needed. I tried MightyRom, Sprint, and USCC roms and cleared the memory without any luck on the EVDO problem.
Thanks!

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
8=D
i loaded the hacked prl 00001 to get some 3g data. when i have this prl loaded, i can select home only and unselect the data roaming option while still having 3g with the eri telling me "Sprint" or Google in this case, modded eri. it seems if i load any other prl, when set to home only, i will get no service at all...i assume the power outages and high winds here had everything to do with it.
when i check isp sites, my isp is sprint pcs, with the hacked prl and set to home only. am i on vzw with this prl even though home only is selected? ive had 01115 since it was released, i have a personal account with a place of employment discount.(although i dont think this has anything to do with it.)
Also, if anyone in the NE region or Boston area could please post which prl you are on, itd be appreciated.
Thank you!
Alright, so I have an EVO 3d from Sprint, Unlocked, s-off.
For whatever reason I can't seem to find how to update the PRL or Profile through any rom I've tried,
as per Ting's instructions on how to activate.
They have my ESN/MEID listed as active and an assigned phone number. I'm a noob.
I'm wondering what rom I can use that will update the PRL and Profile, assuming that will
assign my new phone number and such - the device is not active with Sprint currently so hopefully that's not a problem.
Anyone know what I should do? Ting's support is great, and recommended going back to stock then trying the prl and profile update.
Let me know if you can help
Thanks
Short story: I'd like to be able to activate US Cellular and Telus branded Snaps on Verizon or Sprint. Assume for the purposes of this question that the ESN on these devices can be activated on Verizon's network. What steps must be taken for the phone to be recognized on the Verizon network such that data will work?
What I can do/have already tried: Activated US Cellular and other carrier's HTC Snap (SMT6175) devices on both Verizon and Sprint's networks via both OTA and manual programming of the MDN, etc. The device works fine for voice and text, but data does not work. I've changed the CID of the device using a Riffbox, I've manually changed HDR AN and PPP user IDs and passwords, I've put HSPL on the SMT6175 and installed the stock WM6.5 Verizon ROM. The phones activate using OTAP, but don't get the correct UID and passwords in the PPP fields for some reason.
If I do a hard reset after making modifications, the phones go back to thinking they are US Cellular phones, based on the pre-populated settings in the PPP and other fields.
I need to figure out what it is that makes the phones know they should revert back to US Cellular or whatever the original carrier was, and hopefully make permanent changes so that I can get the phones to work just like a real Verizon HTC Ozone (xv6175) that could be activated normally via OTAP, and have voice, text, and data working.
Any ideas or suggestions? Please reply or send PM! Thanks!
