Current Sprint PRLs

Please forgive my basic question here, but does the PRL automatically update itself on an iPhone, or do you have manually update it?

The network takes care of PRL pushes usually, so the iPhone will eventually auto update.

I confirmed tonight that the latest PRL update downgraded Bluegrass Cellular from native to extended:

Below is the link to the post where I announced the past PRL update marked BGC as native Sprint:

How can you tell the roaming partner from iPhone field test? I just got back from Wisconsin, and was curious who I was using up there.

25029 on my galaxy tab S 10.1"and 55029 on my LG G4. What changes made now?

I'm on vacation and won't be about to upload new xxx29 series PRL until Sunday. So unless someone else knows how to use DFS or CDMA Workshop, you'll have to wait until at least then to find out.

Since I'm comparing the 55 series to the 56 series this time, a lot of stuff doesn't line up, probably due to extra EV-DO lines.  I'm going to have to go through line-by-line, I think.

 

EDIT:  Without being able to know what 3G is new versus what's a change from 55 to 56, I've just analyzed the 1X parts.

 

Geography 7:  Added 4305, 93. (Roaming)

 

Geography 12:  Removed 362, 5652, 5274

 

Geography 13:  Added 4307. (Roaming)

 

Quick check says 93 is Verizon, 4305 and 4307 are SI Wireless, 362/5652/5274 are Cellcom.

 

EDIT2:  Quick check of Cellcom's coverage map indicates they are using the Verizon network for nationwide LTE.  Wonder if they terminated their deal with Sprint as a result.

I noticed that a little bit of coverage area was lost in Albemarle County and Greene County in Va from the nTelos area as well.

Looks like Sprint updated their 3G coverage map.

 

Guess work here

 

Dark Red = Sprint 3G

Light Red = Off-network 3G Roaming (uses limited roaming bucket)

Dark Purple == Dark Red

Roaming+ = Off-network "Native" 3G (doesn't use limited roaming bucket)

Light purple Off-network roaming = Off-network 1x (uses limited roaming bucket)

 

What is interesting is it looks like USCC is a mixture of Light Red and Roaming+.

I like the huge random BLOB of medium purple in South Dakota (Roaming+).   Unfortunately, Western Wisconsin is still light purple and not medium purple.  Buy hey, northern Wisconsin is medium purple.

    • Kind of amazing that T-Mobile is still holding onto that speed title despite Verizon all but killing off lowband 5G on their network. While Verizon is mostly being evaluated on mmWave and C-band performance, T-Mobile and AT&T's average 5G speeds include their massive lowband 5G networks that are significantly slower.

    • Yup. Very true. We were originally on an Everything Data 1500 Plan, which got Unlimited Minutes thanks to Marcelo's "Loyalty Benefits" offer. We then switched to Unlimited Freedom (with the Free HD add-on that Sprint originally wanted $20/month per line for.... remember that?) because the pricing was better with "iPhone for Life", vs. the "Loyalty Credit" for staying on a Legacy Plan. After that, I ran the numbers and switched us over to Sprint MAX, especially for the international travel benefits. There's absolutely no reason for us to switch to Go5G Plus or Go5G Next if we're going to do BYOD by purchasing from Apple/Samsung/Google directly as we've been doing. These new plans aren't priced for current customers to switch to. They're priced for new customers, where they throw in a free line, etc. It's gone from "Uncarrier" to "Carrier". What a shame.
    • Strange business model that they keep around all these pricing plans. 1000s of plans per carrier is reportedly not uncommon.  Training customer support must be a nightmare. Even MVNOs have legacy plans. A downside of their contract mentality I guess. Best to change contracts during a recession. But then all carriers try to squeeze out legacy plan benefits as they grow old.  
    • Everything "Uncarrier" is becoming "Carrier" again. Because of the Credit Limit that T-Mobile put on our account for no reason at all (and wouldn't change/update the last time I checked all the way up to the CEO), I don't plan on buying/upgrading our iPhones through T-Mobile. I'm going through Apple directly. Looks like I'll be going through Google and Samsung directly for our other lines for upgrades. Also, we're staying on Sprint Max given the ridiculous pricing for Go5G Plus. On Sprint Max, we currently pay for our Plan: $260 for 7 Voice Lines $25 for two Wearable Lines. (One is $10/Month. The other is $15/Month because the AutoPay discount only applies up to 8 lines.) Total: $285/Month vs. Go5G Plus (Per the Broadband Facts "nutrition label" on the T-Mobile Website): https://www.t-mobile.com/commerce/cell-phone-plans $360 - ($5 AutoPay Discount x 7 Voice Lines) = $325 The Watch Plans show as either $12/Month or $15/Month: https://www.t-mobile.com/cell-phone-plans/affordable-data-plans/smartwatches So this is about the same for the wearables as what we're paying now. Overall, it's quite more than we're paying now to switch plans. Ridiculous....
