IT'S A MYTH THAT A NEW PRL WILL GET YOU BETTER DATA SPEEDS, please understand that. You are using a WIRELESS connection and speeds will fluctuate a LOT. If you usually get .8mbps and now you're getting 1.2mbps it's purely BY CHANCE, NOTHING else.

4G DOES NOT USE PRLs!!!!! I didn't know if I wanted to laugh or cry when someone said "it's technically roaming" since 4G is owned by clearwire and not Sprint.

4G is a NEW technology and PRL is only used for CDMA networks. Your 4G performance has absolutely NOTHING to do with a PRL. WiMAX networks, like GSM DON'T NEED PRLs TO WORK!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Phew, sorry, just had to vent.

This guy is totally right. Maybe a bit dickish but correct none the less. I have been using the 00001 verizon PRL for the last few weeks and get 700-1000kbps mid day during heavy network traffic. I did a speed test just now and got 700k on the nose, flashed the new 60676 and got my typical Sprint speed of 80k. The network is garbage and a PRL isn't going to help it. Placebo effect is a strong one around here it seems.

Awesome. I always wondered how to do it manually.
Thanks. Will give it a shot when I get home form work.

Update your prl...then force a data profile restore...cancel when it attempts to update the prl. At the end of the reboot and let me know what difference you see if any at all.

In the cases that I am refering to it isn't necessarily the prl (though I do see that by updating an available tower list one could be connecting to new towers previously not listed thus a new connection with better speeds)

In the tests I have done updating the prl after a data profile update/restore kills both 3g and 4g speeds. Many others have experienced the same. Granted there are a.handful that see no change and a fewer group that lost speed.

Not that you were singling me out

Wrong location now??

Not sure if it is related to this PRL update, but this problem starting occurring some time today after I did the update.

My HTC Sense clock and location widget is showing that I am in the city of Reykjavik which is 5hrs ahead of me! Needless to say, this screws everything up! I tried updating the PRL a couple more times, rebooted, uninstalled some recently installed apps, but nothing.

Oddly, when I launch Google maps, it knows exactly where I am! Speedtest also finds the local server.

Am running Sprint Lovers ROM, which has had no problem with this in the past, and I did not update it recently.

Any clues? is it related to this PRL update?
If not, what else can I try?

Thanks!

Trying to revert to see if it will fix my weird location issue that popped up today. When I dial ##775#, nothing happens. ##DATA# works fine, though! Any clue?
