I've just upgraded from an Alltel Moto Q to an Alltel HTC Touch Pro.

On the Q I was able to manually update the PRL from 30042 to 40042 so that I could get on EVDO speeds.

I've searched this site and have seen instructions for Sprint but can't find a solution for Alltel.

Can anyone help?

Thanks in advance

Can someone explain this to a newb? When you get the data plan aren't you simply getting the fastest speed that your phone and current location can support?

Just do *228 and select option 2. It will give you a prl to Verizon's towers and still show you on a home network, unlike before when the triangle flashed.

doing that will only give him the newest 300xx series PRL. He wants to load the 400xx series for the reason i stated in my previous post.

Thanks razorloves, that's excately what I was looking for, although I didn't realize until now that rA is better than EVDO! I had rA before upgrading the PRL but now I still have it with the updated PRL.

As there are a bunch of Alltel HTC Touch Pro users reading this can I ask a couple of other specific questions about the our phone?

1. Is GPS already unlocked or do I need to do something to the phone? It just never gets a lock on a satalite when I try it via Google Maps.

2. My TP seems sluggish, whould one of the many 'cooked' ROMS on here make it better/faster? If so how do you decide which one to use?

This forum looks like a great resource, just a little intimidating too!

Thanks in advance
