From the FAQ if you haven't found the answer yet. There is a MSL thread in the general section now with a easy and legal way to get it.

from what I was told flipz is just the 170 prl in disguise. If you want the 2 something prl you have to flash damge's beta 5 rom and it will change it to that. Then nandroid back to your old rom you were using. I did that recently and it worked. I changed it from the 170 to the 2 something so I can tether.

But doing this method might take some things out of the market and not all sprint apps with work. Tv and navigation do work though.
If you want sprints newest PRI then you have to flash the newest RUU. But you will lose root.

What is the number for the Sprint RUU PRI?

I did this yesterday and while it removes flipz custom pri, it does not upgrade the pri to the current one. I have the 1.70 pri and im not about to run the RUU just to upgrade it.

make a nandroid back up and go back to a 1.5 rom run pri update and then nandroid back to the 2.1 rom. (might be able to pri update from 2.1 I haven't tried it)

Can I upgrade from rc29 to cupcake?

Can I by not going through all the other firmwares?
yes rename it to update.zip and home+power and alt+s
A related question: it may be too early but has anyone tried going from the OTA 1.5 to RC29? Any reason why that wouldn't work?

People have been upgrading and downgrading since the birth of time , there are no issues when it comes to this, im assuming by RC29 your wanting to unroot??

That's really what I'm getting at, like say a person gets the OTA 1.5 and wants to root it. They would have the stock SPL. I don't think the stock SPL is a problem as I was running the lucid JF1.42 for a while and just loaded the hard SPL recently before I upgraded to the JF1.5 ADP. Just wondering if new customers and/or unrooted 1.5's will still be able to root their phones by flashing to RC29.
I know some people have unrooted their phones and loaded the OTA 1.5 just to check it out. No one has said if they were able to revert it back to a rooted build yet.

I'm thinking ahead when most owners will have the OTA 1.5, wondering if they'll still be able to root by flashing to RC29.

I have to agree. Shouldn't be a problem to upgrade or downgrade no matter what build its on.

The only thing I can think of is the radio. I know it was causing some problems with one of the SPL's, and reflashing to RC29 has nothing to do with that. But I also read that reverting back to the old radio had caused problems, and I don't know if RC29 will boot with the new radio. This is assuming RC29 doesn't have a radio update of its own, I honestly don't know.
Yes you can. I had the RC33 and updated to the CRB17 the UK1.5 cupcake.
I lost myfaves and amazon. I gained a program called "web n walk"(T-Mobile's UK mobile store). Well, after that I received the 1.5 OTA CRB43 update I didn't get myfaves back or amazon. So...I downgraded to the RC29 then to a file called RC29 to RC33 update, finally to the US 1.5 CRB43. Now everything is the way it should be. No problem with the downgrade to RC29. From what I understand if you can get to RC29, everything from there is as it was.
Here's the link. It's about half way down the page in blue.

If you have UK 1.5 and want to update to US 1.5,
you can simply install US 1.5.
No inbetween steps required!

I was able to revert back. I my phone was rooted and before jf made the us 1.5 rom I went back to original spl and rc29 just to install the US Tmo OTA update. And earlier this morning I just went back to rc29 to reroot so I could update to jf's 1.51us.
I didn't go straight from rc29, I at least flashed JF's rc33 before going to JF's 1.51-US.

Yes you are correct... but you get the US cupcake with the UK web n walk and no amazon. The other needs to be done to change it all back.

Hey Guys,
i recently got root on my dream and updated from RC29 to RC33 1.1
which one should i be following to get to 1.5 CRB43 which is the latest US update right? can anyone link me to where i should go to do this.
Thanks guys!

A friendly little reminder

If you are like me and you have been using the 2.1's for a month or 2 now and havnt gone back to 1.5, think twice.
nandroid backup, flash fresh 1.1 and go to settings and update prl and profile. sprint has updated the prl twice i believe since toast release 1.8.2 2.0. i did it today and wow signal is incredible here in my town and all the way up I 65. before i barely had 2 bars or about 130 dbm's. anyways if your PRL is before 60662 you should go back and update.
and unless someone wants to create an update.zip for prl flash i cant. sprint said they cant give me/push the prl because it is not supported on my firmware..? anyways hope this helps everyone else.
what about the pri
how would this affect me if i flashed the new radio?
should i still update?
can u reflash back to a 2.1 after doing the updat and keep the update intact
So a nandroid restore won't overwrite the updated PRL, right?

Right. The PRL will remain intact while flashing .ZIPs and restoring Nandroids.
It will NOT effect your Radio update.

You mean 1.5? I have done in a few times. ROMs do not effect the Radio.

Right, I should have said a 1.5 ROM, such as Fresh 1.1. Sorry for the confusion.

The latest is 60662.
Cool, it worked. Wiped, Flashed Fresh 1.1, booted, updated PRL to 60662, wiped, flashed DCv1, booted and signal strength is the same. Oh well!
I had no complaints about signal here at work. At home, I am often -100dBm so hopefully 60662 improves that.
If I understand correctly, your PRL has nothing to do with your Sprint network signal.
I was just getting over my ROM flashing addiction. Now you just gave me a reason to Flash another rom.. THANKS! I just did this and updated my PRL successfully

This should be correct.
PRL is Preferred Roaming List, Sprint releases them to correct areas that have very low signal, telling it to roam on Verizon's network, and vice versa(where it's roaming and it now has Sprint signal).
As far as I know, of course.
Could a 60662 PRL update.zip be created? I can make them, I just need the file/path.
Prl is only roaming but updating profile will help in your area
Im glad this helped and with an update.zip the path is to /radio so i wouldnt mess with it
here is a zip i found that has the prl.
Im not sure if it works because i haven't had time to use it yet.
This explains PRL.

I'm going to get my new eris at 1.5 tomorrow so I will try it out anyway. I'll post back with my results
Wouldn't it be safe to flash any rom, if you have the recovery on an already rooted phone? That way you can just restore from a nandroid or BART backup if it doesn't work?

I had the 2.1 leak so I never got to root mine.
Anyone else try this? Difference vs the first leak? Can I install this over the first leak?

google sign in error fixed. No gmail picture fix. Thats bout it.
Is it worth trying? I read it could be faster, any truth to it?
If you have 1.5 dont install it, install my rom or wait til someone better than I comes up with a rom based on 2.1 ota.
I have been using the leak since the first day it came out.

step 2:
trying rooted 1.5 [FAIL] version is older
next step, try just 2.1 rooted version

Do I NEED to fix my PRI?

Hey gang, I've been reading through the sticky on the PRI issue. I was running Damageless v2 for a bit, now trying out the latest 2.1 Eris-based Fresh ROM. The PRI version shows 2.11_002. My question is this... what problems are people having with these Eris based PRI's? My phone seems to be just fine, or am I missing something that should be working better? I read mention of SprintTV not working in the thread, but I don't use that app (and it's not even on Fresh). What do I gain by fixing the PRI? Thanks guys.
Dave
When the official Sprint update comes and you get a new ROM off of that, you will have problems with it not identifying the network correctly.
You are better of doing it. I would say that you NEED to. It should be essential.
Gotcha
Thanks for the reply to clear that up. Definitely don't want the phone to break on the official updated ROM.
I intentionall broke my PRI to keep MNS working. Resetting put me back to 170, which doesn't work with it. I've noticed no problems using the 2.11_002 PRI.
Not the same thing but a similar question. My PRI is currently 1.68_003, should I attempt to get my PRI updated to 2.10_003 & would I accomplish this via the way Avalaunch directed here?

As I understand, there's only one person who has the 2.10_003 PRI.

reverting back to 1.56

I want to revert my radio back to the one that came with 1.56 and 1.56 stock because I need to send phone in for repairs. where can I get the rom and the original radio.
Sent from my HERO200 using the XDA mobile application powered by Tapatalk
Yea, I would like this to.
here you go... geekfor.me... great site
Just flash the radio and then restore from your first nandroid. Or if you want you can do this, but flash the radio first
