Fortunately, it didn't update! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just wish I could do it from my CyanogenMOD. What kind of phone do you have? I just downloaded QPST and did it from there. You have to put the phone in modem mode to get it to recognize it though. On the Epic 4G, it's dialer code ##8778#, and then you change the USB mode to Modem from PDA. Just make sure when you are done to change it back to PDA if you want to access your files from the SD card when hooking it up to the computer.

If you consistently go over the 350MB of roaming data limit that Sprint has, you are likely to get terminated. So it has to be done very carefully.

If you consistently go over the 350MB of roaming data limit that Sprint has, you are likely to get terminated. So it has to be done very carefully. Actually, the 11115 is a Sprint PRL. It will choose Sprint first, then if you have to roam (no Sprint service available), it will search for Alltel EVDO, then Verizon EVDO. So no worries about exceeding 350 MB of roaming data, because it isn't always on Verizon. That would be the 00001 PRL, which shows your phone is on the Sprint network, but it is actually on Verizon. (Doesn't show the roam indicator). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just depends on each persons individual situation. If you roam a lot, then I wouldn't recommend doing it. However, if you just want a seamless transfer to roaming with 3G and not slow down, then it would be for you. I've got 5 phones on my account, and I'm the only one that does this. The most roaming I think I've done in one month was 250 MB. Do you think Sprint would cancel my contract if only one phone was roaming over 350 MB? I have always wondered that. I think it would be dumb if they canceled a $250/mo contract just because one phone on the account roamed excessively. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
