Even though my prl is right they need to actually authenticate the phone from there end so... roaming no prob now.. and i did install the roam only hack.. anyways it only took like two minutes I explained that I was having trouble roaming... after a few clicks on her end... she asked me call *2 from the handset.. after a second it prompted that there was an update.. it did its thing.. soft reset itself.. after reboot acted funny for five minutes then... perfect reception.. and I traveled today.. to fringe areas with no troubles... the data is even slightly faster....

hope this helps and makes some kind of sense..

just tryin to help
I also called Sprint today for this same issue. I had called twice yesterday and asked for a HLR reload. Both times I was still unable to make calls while roaming, even after resetting the phone. Today I called for a third time and explained the situation again. The person I talked to in Tech Support said that she sent a new PRL Update to my phone and reset my voice and data settings. Within seconds, my phone reset itself. Now my roaming works fine.
I first starting having roaming problems 2 months ago on my Treo 755p right after I had called in requesting a PRL update. I then went to a Centro and now the Touch. This problem has followed me up until now.
