Try typing ##873283# into the dial pad then hit the call button. Wait a minute or so and your PRL should be updated. Mine is at 60687.

Got the update too but I am unsure. I wish someone would pull the prl from the Nexus to see if it has roaming with Metro PCS LTE

 

Uhhh, no roaming with metro pcs lte or anyone else's lte for that matter.

That's odd mine didn't update to 60687. Perhaps it's because I'm still on 5.0.1? (can't update or I lose my JB)

That's probably it. I don't think we're going to have to wait much longer for 5.1 to be untethered though.

Hopefully not. I have 2 iPhone's to update to 5.1 for others, but just waiting for the untether.

Odds are it's taking a while because there technically is an untethered 5.1 JB out there, however I'm thinking their exploit can't be made public since it required an apple dev account. Same thing happened with the 5.0.1 4S JB. We'll get it in due time.

My old 3Gs is the best for jailbreaks. Limerain has made it untethered for life. :)

I updated both my Epic 4G and my wife's Epic 4G Touch after seeing this post. Big help for us in the signal department. We live in the south Chicago area where they have been struggling with the NV rollout and our coverage has been horrible the last few weeks.

It's because the 3GS has a certain boot rom that makes every jailbreak untethered.

It's still meh for me even with the update. Glad it's gotten better for you!

the newer boot rom 3Gs' are limited to tethered on iOS 5.1 right now. They changed the bootrom midstream, but my replacement still had the old one.

Thanks. And actually that is 21087. The first real world PRL that has an ACQ record for 800SMR! I see it attached to SID 22439 in the NY Geo area.

 

So this will "see" 800mhz CDMA sites?

Are there any CDMA 800 sites to be found anyway???

 

Yes, there are 2 confirmed in the Chicago area & one unconfirmed in the LA area.

Yes. For Chicago Sprint customers, your phone will check the standard PCS channels first. If it cannot find any PCS channels it will check the 800SMR band before roaming. It will also check the PCS band for EVDO data when connected on the SMR. Kinda dumb if you ask me, if PCS EVDO was available then you wouldn't be on SMR for voice in the first place. Just wasted battery looking for a EV signal.

 

This is only on the 21xxx PRLs on 800SMR 1XA capable phones, by the way.

    • T-Mobile Fires Back At AT&T After Their Statements On T-Priority
    • February is always closer than you think! https://stadiumtechreport.com/news/caesars-superdome-gets-matsing-deployment-ahead-of-super-bowl-lix/ Another Super Bowl, another MatSing cellular antenna deployment. Caesars Superdome, home of the NFL’s New Orleans Saints, has deployed a large number of cellular antennas from MatSing as part of an effort to increase wireless network capacity ahead of the upcoming Super Bowl LIX in February, 2025. It is the third such deployment of MatSing equipment at Super Bowl venues in as many years, following cellular upgrades at Allegiant Stadium for Super Bowl LVIII and at State Farm Stadium for Super Bowl LVII. According to the Saints, the MatSing antennas were part of a large wireless overhaul this offseason, done primarily “to satisfy fans’ desires for wireless consumption and bandwidth,” an important thing with Super Bowl LIX coming to the venue on Feb. 9, 2025. Each year, the NFL’s big game regularly sets records for wireless data consumption, with a steady upward progression ever since wireless networks were first put into stadiums. https://www.neworleanssaints.com/news/caesars-superdome-transformation-2024-new-orleans-saints-nfl-season-part-1-wifi-upgrades-wireless-cellular During the offseason renovation project, the foundation of the facility's new Distributed Antenna System (DAS) was the installation of 16 multi-beam, wideband spherical lense antennas that are seven feet in diameter and weigh nearly 600 pounds apiece, a model called the MatSing MS-48H180. Another 16 large antenna spheres of varying sizes and frequencies have also been installed for a total of 32 new large antennas, in addition to 200 cellular antennas inside and around the building, all of these products specifically made for high-density environments such as stadiums and arenas. The DAS system's performance is expected to enhance further as it becomes fully integrated throughout the season. The MatSing MS-48H180 devices, with a black color that matches the Caesars Superdome's roof, each were individually raised by hoist machines to the top of the facility and bolted into place. Each cellular antenna then transmits 48 different beams and signals to a specific area in the stadium, with each sphere angled differently to specifically target different coverage areas, allowing increased, consistent coverage for high-density seating areas. In addition to creating targets in seating and common areas throughout the stadium, these antennas create dedicated floor zones that result in improved coverage to the field areas for fans in 12 field-level suites and the Mercedes-Benz End Zone Club, teams and on-field media and broadcast elements. The project is also adding 2,500 new wireless access points placed in areas such as concourses, atriums, suites and food and beverage areas for better WiFi coverage.

    • FCC: "We remain committed to helping with recovery efforts in states affected by Hurricane Helene. We stand ready to do all that is necessary to return connectivity to hard-hit areas and save lives." SpaceX: "SpaceX and @TMobile have been given emergency special temporary authority by the @FCC to enable @Starlink satellites with direct-to-cell capability to provide coverage for cell phones in the affected areas of Hurricane Helene. The satellites have already been enabled and started broadcasting emergency alerts to cell phones on all networks in North Carolina. In addition, we may test basic texting (SMS) capabilities for most cell phones on the T-Mobile network in North Carolina. SpaceX’s direct-to-cell constellation has not been fully deployed, so all services will be delivered on a best-effort basis." Space posted this at 2pm today on X.
