Please don't laugh, but what does a PRL update do for you and can you update if your phone is jail broken?

PRL = Preferred Roaming List

It's a database of system IDs housed in the phone that tells it which towers to connect to, in what order when you are away from the system ID designated as your 'home' system.

And yes, you can update if you're jail broken.

You still have an old Alltel plan?

Nice find on how to find the PRL version. Now if we could only find out how to get field test we'd be in business.

Nice. Thanks.

Yes, I do. And it's $13 per month cheaper than the comparable Verizon plan.

Bump

There's a new update (6/19/11), follow the same instructions above (or below) to find the PRL # which should be 52341 after the update.

*228 option 2 is how to update and Dialing *#5005*4357# to see what version you have.

If you just did the *#5005* - you left off the very important 4357# part...

I just saved the whole *#5005*4357# in my phonebook as PRL Check - works every time.

[Dustoff-00]

OK, wasn't having problems but decided to update anyway.

went from 52297
now have 52341

what is significant about this change?

 

[bizzob223#IM]

Kinda weird. I just updated mine and it is still 52297. Any idea why it wouldn't update? Is it area specifica?
