Current Sprint PRLs

Have you tried to update your profile? And PRL? Yo most likely tried this. What you should try next is to flash the latest firmware again. At least the modem. That should fix it.

Last night, I turned my phone off.  Turned it on this a.m.  PRL was 25013 again.

 

Rebooted.  PRL still 25013.

 

Powered off.  Removed battery & waited 10 minutes.  Reboot.  PRL went back to version 1.

I regret to say it, but I have no insight to share.

most likely you have a ROM issue failing to correctly display the PRL.

 

When I was using my Samsung Epic there was a SD card rom I could boot up into to update the PRL through a stock firmware. You should look for something similar as your PRL is out of date. Or you need to learn how to flash a new PRL :)

Is there a difference between 55016 and 54016? One is corporate liable and the other is individual liable?

 

Would Sprint see that I used the corporate one, and if they did does that present a problem since I'm not actually roaming?

 

Thanks

I was having poor speeds on 55016 so I went to 54016 and it seems better. I'm not getting a "roaming" notice though so is there a difference between the two in how "crowded" they are? sorry for these newb questions.

After updating my EVO 4G LTE what I get is 24016. I'd really like to be able to access the 800mhz band, but my phone never seems to find any. Maybe they just have not deployed in my area yet. But we're already half LTE deployed, so it would be quite an oversight on their part. 

 

I'm wondering if I'm being given a purposefully outdated PRL due to being on an MVNO. Any chance of that? 

 

I found the Sprint PRL list here in the forums, here is what it says:

24016 24015 SV-LTE and BC10 2012 forward CL Corporate Liable SV-LTE PRL identical to 22xxx and also supports Simultaneous Voice/Data.

 

So, Corporate...I'm going to guess it isn't being updated with the latest 800mhz entries?

While 800mhz is testing, it uses a network code that is not loaded in any production PRL. There is a custom Premier Sponsor PRL made by our on Digiblur that adds this testing NID entry into the PRL I believe. 800mhz sites tend to come on in clusters, so they will be on this testing frequency for a while until they are ready to go live.

I don't think the 55016 PRL is sufficient for the Nexus 5, I'm having all sorts of issues. Phone works, just not great. Specifically voice quality.

That would not be solved by a PRL since it is not the cause. If you are attaching to the tower at all then the PRL is telling the device to scan.

How can I explain my awful outgoing call quality then? Its strange since it only happens when going from LTE to making a phone call. Always seems to default to 1x800 when I am going from 3G (eHRPD) to a phone call.

Probably connecting to a recently upgraded 800Mhz 1x site that isn't operating correctly. Since it's an 800Mhz signal though, you could potentially be very far from this site compared to the LTE or 3G site, so it's much harder to pinpoint where it is.

 

Your best bet is to call into Care and have a rep mark your location in the Network Pinpoint tool as having audio quality issues there. All of the info from that tool is forwarded to the network teams every 15 minutes.

Thank you for your feedback, this is the best advice I have received yet. I will call and have them mark my home when I have a chance. Thanks again!

I have changed the link to a published HTML page instead of a standard Google Docs spreadsheet link. The spreadsheet link didn't add any features, and caused issues when people were trying to view the page as I worked on it

I checked out 55017 and it was nothing much from what I saw. I'll dig into it a little deeper when I have time to see if some other priorities changed.

Just got 55017 today.

I also just got 60657 on my iPhone in Chicagoland. Now before I'm scolded for the correlation between prl's and lte connectivity; I can't get lte on my phone with this update.

 

This also happened to me for both my iPhone 5s & my sister's iPhone 5. Neither of them even scan for LTE anymore.

posted this in the NYC market thread but I noticed that the connection time is a lot shorter when dialing out and receiving a call before when I was on 55016 it would take 13 seconds to connect now on 55017 it takes 3 seconds to connect... Anyone else notice that difference besides me...

    • T-Mobile interferes with NextWave's network, FCC finds https://www.lightreading.com/5g/t-mobile-interferes-with-nextwave-s-network-fcc-finds At this point, T-Mobile should just open up the checkbook and pay whatever it takes together rid of NextWave for good. 
    • Flashback (January 11, 2018): Sprint Says No to mmWave, Yes to Mobile 5G https://www.lightreading.com/5g/sprint-says-no-to-mmwave-yes-to-mobile-5g Sprint's CTO said Wednesday that he is not sure that using millimeter waves to deliver 5G services is a practical economic use of the high-band spectrum and that Sprint will be focusing on using its existing bandwidth to deploy 5G, at least initially. "What is the cost to deliver a bit over millimeter waves? Where is the business case on that?" John Saw asked at the Citi conference in Las Vegas. The logic here is that using sub-6GHz networks to deliver 5G -- Sprint Corp. (NYSE: S) is using 2.5GHz -- will allow operators to get better coverage than mmWave (typically 28GHz or 39GHz) and re-use its infrastructure.
    • It looks like they have 700mhz of 24ghz n258 in those areas anyway. Seems like they've been trying to streamline mmw to just n258 anyway.
    • New n261 license reduction for Brooklyn and Queens kinda gives insight into T-Mobile's mmWave plans going forward. While it sucks that they aren't going to widely deploy it in the outer boroughs, they chose great areas to retain the license. Downtown Flushing, Long Island City, Dumbo, Greenpoint, and Williamsburg all make the cut which is pretty obvious given their density.  I'm surprised to see Red Hook make it in and the entire waterfront along Sunset Park. Maybe they plan on some mmWave small cells along 1st Ave in Industry City. Also looks like they retained the license in the party section of Bushwick/East Williamsburg where Elsewhere, House of Yes, Brooklyn Mirage, etc. all are so that would be cool to see get covered in mmWave. In Queens they scooped up Citi Field, Billie Jean King National Tennis Center, and all of Flushing Meadows Park which should be helpful for all of the festivals that take place in that part of Queens. Also looks like they kept the license for LGA but not for JFK.
