Re: Force Roam in new Sprint ROM
 

I also vote for a cab (i also requested it in the registry cab requests thread), so hopefully someone does it. With all the flashing some of us do, it'd be nice to have this already to setup with a cab, versus having to do it in the registry ourselves. I can also confirm, that both entries (the one in initprov, and the other one) need to both be done, to make it stick.

I got it to stick but I cant get a signal
in places I was able to get roaming before.

Any ideas ?

Re: Force Roam in new Sprint ROM
 

Does anybody know how to get the Service Acquire and Lost Tone to work when the phone switches to Sprint or Roaming?

Could be the newer PRL.

Re: Force Roam in new Sprint ROM
 

I get the same issue where I can force roaming successfully now and get the message that Verizon Wireless cannot authenticate my phone where it was able to authenticate prior to the ROM update. Anyone figure out how to overcome this yet?

Thank you!

Re: Force Roam in new Sprint ROM
 

The new PRL does that... (v. 60613)

You can try downgrading your PRL to earlier versions... here's how:

Re: Force Roam in new Sprint ROM
 

Thank you for the information. Are you sure this will work? The post you reference is someone who used to get Ev for data roaming and the upgrade gave him 1x for data roaming. My issue is voice or data, I pick up Verizon signal but can't data roam at all and get a Verizon message saying my phone can't be authenticated when I try to make phone calls. I'm not sure ifthat has anything to do with the PRL. I just want to be sure before I try to get my MSL.

Thanks!

Re: Force Roam in new Sprint ROM
 

I thought 60711 was the latest PRL - could someone confirm what is the latest? I had connectivity issues with the PRL on the new sprint firmware so I put in 60711 and seemed OK.

Is there no roaming with the Sprint ROM
 

Hello,

I don't think I've yet gone to an area where I roam but I might need to. Does the new Sprint firmware prevent you from roaming completely or just reduce your chance of roaming in weak sprint signal areas?

Thanks for clarifying.

Re: Force Roam in new Sprint ROM
 

The PRL that comes with the new ROM is 60613. I've tried 60611 and 60612 and they wouldn't give me EV while roaming.. 60610 would.

60613 actually gives me EV locally now... I'm sure it's using Altell towers but I don't have to ROAM to get it... so I'm sticking with 60613.

You can try 60610 and see how things go... if you don't like it just upgrade it back to 60613 (just extract all files from the new ROM and you'll see PRL_60613.prl there).
