You're telling folks a lot of technical things where they'll get stuck doing them. I only know this because I've done all this. But for those who don't know, ALL of this is necessary as is the GETSPL application if they don't want to call sprint and have to deal with them.

Thanks for the upgrade information, but you need to include a lot more detail here.

Also, can you say what is included in this PRI update and why it's necessary?

I stand corrected, I tried your method, apparently this works without entering th MSL. Not sure what it does though. Would like more explanation.

I'm not sure if the PRI re-programs the data/vocoder settings or keeps them; it used to reset them to the network defaults. I checked and saw that my VOCODER settings were all set to EVRC-B; something Sprint's network has worked with in an unofficial capacity for years. There has been debate on whether the network ignores the phone's setting and forces EVRC, so perhaps even if the phones had been previously set to EVRC-B, the settings were ignored and this new PRI effectively implements EVRC-B. I'd rather it be EVRC-WB or some newer 4GV codec, as the TP2 can handle encoding/decoding them; this is apparent as the specs mention AMR-WB.

In any case, I am impressed.

There is a better explanation.

thank you for the link and the explnation as to what this does, but doing a google search yields no information as to what a PRI is exactly.

Any ideas?

You can check your pri version by going to settings, system,and selecting device information. If you have 1.42_003, upgrade, if you already have 2.20_003, you don't need to. If you applied the Sprint 6.5 update ROM you should already have it but you can check anyways.(many are saying that the 6.5 update does not infact install this update by default so you may not have it even if you did update.)

How to:
1. Download and install attached cab.
2. Go to your windows folder and find ppst.exe.
3. Open the program and press ok to proceed with update.
4. Once update is completed press ok to restart your device.
5. Once device is restarted check device info to confirm update.
Done

Thanks for the posting. I checked my device information and Sprint 6.5 upgrade did update my PRI to 2.20.003. I have found that my TP2 connects to 1xRTT frequently. Before the Sprint WinMo 6.5 upgrade, my TP2 is always on EVDO for data connection ... Anyway, this is just my personal experience and I'm not sure if it has anything to do with PRI.

if you flash back to the stock sprint 6.1 rom it should revert back to the older pri.

Seems a bit faster online, will test WMWiFiRouter when I get home, waiting to see what it does to battery life tho, speed has a price...

Is this applicable for a Touch Pro that has been upgraded to WM 6.5 (Energy ROM)?

All this does is update the PRI if you have the older version on the ROM you are running it should work..

P.S. my stock rom updated when I ran the PRi updater installed with the stock rom..
