To the people reporting poor Band 25 reception.   Did you enable Band 26 and Band 41?   Maybe Sprint was already ahead of you on this and you actually are causing the problem?   Maybe they made

So I called Sprint to get my msl and they said no it's against company policy. They think I will switch to another carrier. I can't find even on Google another way to get it. Any help would be great. Thanks

That's absolutely stupid. How are you going to switch your phone to another carrier? Sprint has these phones so you cannot "switch" to another carrier.

 

Got a spare Sprint phone? Log into your account. Swap the old phone for your G2 in the system. Complete activation. Then switch it back. In both cases you are given or MSL code on the web page in case you need to go edit your info to get activated.

I always just tell them I am an application developer and I need the MSL to access low level system values. They never argue with me after that.

This is what I've always done to get my msl. They give it to you and then email it to you... I thought they weren't supposed to give it out lol. [emoji6]

+1 for that method. So much easier than dealing with a person.

To use TWRP to switch PRLs, you'll have to one time switch the PRL manually on PC. After that, you should be all good.

 

Before doing anything, take note of your current PRL and boot into TWRP. Make a backup but select only EFS partition. Name the backup (PRL "Number here"). Then you'll have a stock PRL ready. Then you can flash 513 via PC and boot back into TWRP and backup EFS again and this time it'll save your 513 PRL.

 

When you're ready to switch PRLs, just boot into TWRP and recover a backup (select one of the PRL backups and you're done.)

i wanted to get my band priorities changed to see what that does even though I know the network will find the best connection for lte.

 

Also debating on rooting the phone

Is this like a game of charades? Not sure what your post is about... Are you asking a question or making a statement, like talking to yourself in the grocery store. [emoji12]

BestBuy doesn't have free replacements anymore for accidental damage. It's like $150 now, which is on par with Sprint. And Sprint covers lost/stolen.

In case anyone wondered, Google FINALLY fixed Play Music so it doesn't stop 50 times with the "Sorry cannot play music steam" error anymore. The ZVC update broke Play Music for us G2 Users.

      Network Vision/LTE - New York City Market

      By Paynefanbro · Posted

      Was in Red Hook again and I swear there are more Link5G sites as there are Verizon, T-Mobile, and AT&T small cells combined in the entire neighborhood. It seemed like every other street I turned down had one installed. Hopefully carriers will start hopping on them soon. Seems like a lot of effort to go through for no one to use them.  — — — — — T-Mobile converted the Sprint site on top of NYU Langone Brooklyn in Sunset Park. I first mapped one sector of it back in November 2023 but I thought it was a small cell so I never pinned it but I ran into another sector today which caught me off guard. I'm unable to find a permit for the conversion so it's definitely a surprise. There's another T-Mobile site 1 block away that T-Mobile initially installed back in 2019 so I'm kinda surprised they're keeping both considering the Sprint conversion is on a much taller building and could potentially provide much better coverage to the entire area.  — — — — — The old permit expired for this site without any work being done but a new permit was just approved a few days ago for a T-Mobile site at this address. Description mentions 3 antennas with 2 RRUs per sector. My guess is they're doing something similar to what they did at 360 Furman St in Brooklyn where they broadcast Band 2/66 and n25/41 from one antenna. It's a bit of a downgrade considering the site it's replacing was a full build with Ericsson 6449s.

      Came across another Crown Castle Solutions multi-tenant oDAS node in Brooklyn. Located at 40.7002286, -73.9612666. Nothing on T-Mobile or AT&T so I'm assuming these are all Verizon nodes that Crown Castle is anticipating another carrier will hop on down the line.
