I have no clue on how to edit.
Thanks

This one seems to already be modified as the Roam Indicator IDs are in the proper ranges. Do you have a non-modified one from a Verizon device?

I know this thread has been dead a while, but what is the difference between a PRL and a modified PRL?

For me a with a verizon on verizon running a custom rom, any PRL gives me roaming, while your modified one DOES NOT. I would like to update my PRL to the newest version, but was hoping to do the modification to make it not roaming and not "preferred system". Any chance you could fill us in on what makes it "modified"?

I have a question along the lines of this post. I have an Alltel TP and until July 14th was an Alltel customer. I was moved (not by choice) to Verizon. I also have a work phone that was already a Verizon phone. Areas where my Verizon phone would work and my Alltel would not have not changed. Any idea why my Alltel TP will not update and log into the Verzion towers? If I update as listed at the begining of this thread will I then lose the ability to hit the Alltel towers I now can see?

Thanks, I installed 51214 in my Sprint BB 8330 and I am still roaming on SID 3002 which is listed in the prl. I was also roaming using prl 51143 too. If I dial * 611 I get the "welcome to vzw" either way. I am using an Airvoice prepaid plan, maybe that's the problem. Do you know if there is anything else I have to change in the BB. Airv had me put my phone # in "MDN" and MSI_S and change SID to 1026.
That got me connected.

When I am in the city in an EVDO area I am not roaming. Both systems are VZW, the only difference is one is EVDO and the other is 1xrtt. My native VZW HP mini works fine on the 1xrtt, slow, but works. *288 & *28810 do not work anywhere. Airvoice says they use 51457 but couldn't tell me where to get it. Does anyone know? That Corolada site is last years stuff.

Note: When using QPST to put in the prl, there has to be an SPC set. It wouldn't download to the BB with the SPC set to 000000. So I changed it back to the original SPC and it took. To check dial #4357* on the BB and you can see the current SID, PRL, and other stuff.

Will doing this allow me to use a non VZW Touch Pro on Verizon?

Not necessarily. It's something you'll need in the process, but not the only thing that needs to be done.

I searched but can't find instructions on doing it.

Now that I find hard to believe. There are several large threads that deal with getting a non-VZW TP on VZW. First and foremost, you need to get your non-VZW TP added to VZW's Device Management Database (referred to as the DMD). You can't activate it without getting that being done first. You'll need to find a VZW tech that can do it for you, either at the store or over the phone. Everything else, is easy by comparison...
