what exactly does a PRL update. i seem to remember sprint doing this for me years ago on a phone i had that was losing signal alot.

That's what it does- improve roaming and signal pickups from towers whenever they update their towers or add new ones.

We are trying to update our PRI not our PRL at this time. I am not sure what PRI does though. That is something I would love to know. :)

You did it right. There is no msg that says no service. But if you would have tapped on your signal bar, it would have said no service. You should be setup just fine.

Alright thanx. 8)

Just a note... This is for the PRL (perfered roaming list) only. It will (or should) enable ring through as well (this is a side effect).

This does not update the Radio or the PRI. There is a different CAB (on the Ext by default) that updates the PRI and you have to flash a different Radio.

Hope this clarifies things.

This updated my PRI. I flashed my radio right before it and the PRI was unchanged. I then applied this cab and all was good with the PRI. :)

MadManX,
i followed your first post and everything updated perfectly for me. 8)
thanxs

PRL
 

Madmanx; I followed your steps but nothing happen my PRL remains at 20224 on a Radio version of 1.27.00

thanks for this essential update!

For some reason I can't get this to work. Here's exactly what I did
1. Downloaded to my computer, then transfered to 6700 to the storage card.
2. Installed to device.
3. Went to Windows\ and found PPST.exe and ran it.
4. I waited until I had no service (only a few seconds)
5. Soft reset, went to Settings/System/Device Information, still have PRL 20224.

What did I do wrong?
