I had the gimped VZW Touch Pro for a month and used lllboredlll's GPS patch which, if I understood it correctly, updated the PRI (among other things). Am I right in saying that procedure to update the PRI won't work on a Sprint TP?

Then, you can use CDMA workshop to change the banner... i'm pretty sure that there are other free apps that can do it too... CDMA workshops is not free. btw, I changed this banner to a different "phrase" company names just s*ck ;)

I have already updated the PRL per instructions in this thread to get rid of the roaming triangle. I'll check out CDMA workshop. Thanks!!

Looks like this updates a few registry entries, which is exactly what I was looking for. I'm curious about a deeper solution with updated PRI/PRL/ERI but I have to get smarter about all that first.

You guys all rock. Thanks!

A Verizon ERI and PRI should take care of that. For the PRI I recommend Bored's modified Verizon PRI. The only problem is for some reason there is no way to get rid of the roaming triangle outside of using a modified PRL

Incorrect. Bored's PRI updated my Sprint Touch Pro (as did the stock Verizon PRI). The only thing is it won't get rid of the roaming triangle. You still need a modified PRL for that.

I have not been paying much attention to this thread but now I have a vzw TP I'm curious does this still work or not, making it so a sprint tp works on verizon? Because reading the first couple of posts in this thread has me confused???

You can still use a Sprint TP on Verizon if you get a VZ tech to add the MEID to their data base. The problem is, not all the techs know how to do that.

I can't get a single tech to add my device to the database. I've called and spoken to 2 different reps today and its irritating me. First some BS about E911 compatability, and then another that said it just isn't possible.

I can't seem to get Data working. I'm including screenshots of the MIP profile in QPST as it's easier than using EPST and taking screenshots. Anything in here I did wrong?
