The title is self explanitory. Last time I could update was just before the EC05 update was pushed ota. Since then, I haven't been able to update either. There's another thread about a possible solution involving quiting the process early, but it doesn't seem to do anything. So am I the only one with this problem, and are there any solutions?

Having it for awhile doesn't mean it isn't known.
I have this issue since EC05 and never before or I think is the rom I am using midnight 5.01
I can't do profile update nor prl at all.
Actually when I was stock rooted EC05 I was able to update but since custom rom it is not possible.

It is a Sprint issue. Apparently there was a problem with 60677 so for most phones they stopped the ability to manually update prl. A lot of people have found who made it to 60677 that Sprint pushed a prl update to their phone (custom ROMs or not) and rolled it back to 60676. It has been discussed and marked as a known issue by Sprint reps on the Sprint Community forum.
Is this a sprint wide problem or is specific to just the epics? I mean, are other sprint phones such as the evo ans evo shift unable to update either?

I believe it's just specific to Epic.
I just updated PRL for my wife's Samsung Moment and my mother-in-law's Samsung Transform without a problem.
Yep, I've had issues updating the PRL since I got the phone I think lol
my last Epic had this problem after the update (maybe 2 or 3 days before it got pushed). since then, I've taken it into sprint to get it replaced to possibly remedy the keyboard skipping keys (didn't fix it lol).
my replacement Epic has been updating PRL and Profile just fine since I first booted it up.....

yea that happened with another one of my Epics (this is my fourth), and they replaced that one with my (third?) and it was fine until the update, which borked it also...
My Epic has never successfully updated its PRL when i tried to. I always do it manually with QPST. No big deal for me. Manually updated to 60677 sometime ago when the file came out.
I went back to DI18 today and updated to EC05. Completely stock, no mods, still unable to update PRL. I was at the Sprint store for 3 hours today and they still couldn't get it fixed. They called in to corporate and even "refreshed" my device, still nothing.
I have another Epic coming in a few days. The tech disassembled my phone to try and fix the wobbly keyboard but didn't have much luck.
While I was in there, a guy with an intercept came in and was having the same exact issue. It's not just the Epic. I think it's all Sprint devices. Even the tech couldn't update his PRL on his Evo
Yes, this is a Sprint issue since they recalled 60677 and are rolling back people with a pushed prl to 60676. Reps have confirmed this on Sprint Community Forum.
Running Epic EC05-rooted-SyndicateROM Frozen 1.1.0-Twilight 1.0.4 kernel, no issues updating to PRL 60676 but will not update past that.

This came out the same day Sprint fixed PRL updating so it does nothing. PRL updating is working on 95% of the phones now. PRLs are being released by area. For most people 60676 will be the highest as seen when Sprint rolled me back yet again last night.

Here's something weird....not sure if any of you have experienced this but....
I had downloaded PRL 60672 last week or so and it was working fine. The other day I receive a text from Sprint saying that there is an Important Roaming List update and to do a manual Update. Thinking that a new one came out, I did it and it put me back to 60671. Not sure why that happened. Its not really affecting me much, but just wondering if that happened to anyone else.
I haven't gotten that message.

from the responses so far....it sounds like maybe you should be wearing a football helmet
Earlier this week I was doing updates on my phone and the PRL would not get higher than 60671 (which is what I am still at), and this was back on Sunday or Monday.
Im thinking for whatever reason, they dont want that 72 out yet
not here and why is this here in the dev section ?
I live in kind a kind of crappy area for Sprint service, and after I flashed to Fresh 3.3 last week I also update radio and wimax (of course) and manually check for a PRL update too (I only update when I want to, and have the time to update everything, and fix it if I become stoopid, but so far XDA has saved my from myself)
Anyways I went from 60669 to 60671, is there a 60670 I missed out on? With my old Sprint phones (Treo650&Centro) I would usually jump PRL revision numbers. It's gotta be a Sprint thing.

Unless you guys live in an area where Sprint coverage sucks and you are roaming all the time, this is not a significant update that you need to worry about. PRL (preferred roaming list) updates local towers from another carrier (most likely Verizon) and tells the phone if certain towers have been added/removed or what not.
Perhaps the 60672 PRL had bad information that was causing people not to roam correctly and Sprint pulled it. I have a feeling another PRL update will be available sooner than later.

If your phone is rooted you won't get update notifications from Sprint. I have full root and have never seen an update message from Sprint.
PRL, Profile, and Firmware all produce an unknown error when clicking update. Called sprint. We reset the phone 3 or 4 times. Running EB13 root CWM2.5 and tried reflashing. They want sprint to reflash the phone back to 2.1 PLEASE HELP!
Google's update servers are currently down in preparation for the OTA. A lot of people are having this issue right now.

Everyone is having error. Probably getting ready for new update tonight.
TL;DR - Try again tomorrow
The servers are getting ready for the new update that comes out tonight and will be available to everyone by March 24th. If you look around the forums, you will see people talking about the newest update: EC05.
I thought I was the only one, but haven't had no time to look around see the forums. I been working for a good part of the day, and had no time to investigate. Thanks everyone for replying.
Yeah this started happening to my phone the other day. I had to take it in to Sprint and they are going to replace it with another one. (Refurb). I tried to argue with them and have exchange with a brand new one but they wouldnt go for it. Does anyone know if flashing the new EC05 will fix this?? I have flashed so many ROMs and nothing worked. If anyone has a fix please chime in. I am very curious to know if this is fixable. If not its cool cuz Im getting a replacement tomorrow.
From what I read on another post, everyone has the same issues. It is Sprint. I am not sure why they would block certain phones from getting a prl or profile update. It makes no sense to me. Seems they would have better IT management plan than this. Other phones like the EVO have already received an prl update 60677. I have heard of some EPIC's never receiving this issue, and I have read some had the issues then disappear, and some re-appear. Most have the same issues as us.

Hey people what ever you do don't take your phone to the store or repair center. Do you really want a piece of **** refurbished EPIC? I purchased my phone new 2 months ago, out right. There is no way in hell that one of those Sprint TECH's will take my phone to replace for theirs. They will do it. SIDE NOTE: I did try FIRMWARE, PROFILE, AND PRL this morning and they worked except no update. Better than yesterday. It is SPRINT with their update servers. Seems everyone will have to wait for someone to push a rom, the update online for us, or just wait for the OTA.
I set my phone down for the nite then 5 minutes later I see my screen turn on by itself which I've never seen that before. I pick it up and on my home screen I get the message box that says updating prl just as it would if you went into settings>aboutphone>updateprl the funny part though is just yesterday I manual updated my prl to 60677 because of it not updating. I checked my prl version its still 60677. Just a weird freak thing I thought I would share.

60677 has not been recalled, but they are having numerous problems with the PRL and the Data Roaming
Some people have reported not getting data at all since the PRL update on Roaming, which is the adverse affect Sprint wanted.
The PRL for some reason hasn't been pushed to the Epic or the Transform.
I had it for a short while on DI18, with no adverse effect, but nothing beneficial either. Since EC05, I'm stuck at 76, at least without doing some hack.

That probably explains my my TWS has spiked and my phone keeps dropping signal recently. At least I know what the eff is going on here. I just tried to update and it's holding steady on 76. My battery life has been sucking too. I wonder if it's all connected.
I was having a problem with my Epic where it wouldn't update the prl or profile. It was on prl 60677.
I wiped the phone with odin and formatted the sd card to no avail.
I took it in for service and no matter what they tried they couldn't get it update. It would get unknown error, error 34, connection error. They did a full reset on the phone and then it was having problems with the data part activating. I could make voice calls but not text or use the internet. If you tried to finish activating the phone it would just fail.
They ended up replacing the phone, the new phone has prl 60675. Now the prl/profile will update with no errors. Now that its updating without errors it not getting any newer version then 60675.
Happened to me last night as well. Was on 76 and still on the same one.

PRL 60677 has worked great for me, with no errors. Improved coverage. Maybe it didn't work on some phones. Still can't update at all with settings, PROFILE, PRL, FIRMWARE.
I've scavenged xda and google, tried the few method's of fixing prl update error's, including the custom activity shortcut one. I still receive "Unknown Error."

I've had the PRL and profile update error since it first started 3+ months ago? I've tried everything on the forums to fix it, flashed every stock ROM release etc but nothing fixed it.
I'm leaving for a cross country trip next week and wanted to make sure I had current PRL while going cross country. I ended up putting stock EC05 back on it and took it in to Sprint and they tried several things to fix it but couldn't. Because i was leaving so soon they swapped me out for a brand new unit instead of making me wait a week for a refurbished unit. Cost $35 for the swap and has fixed my PRL/Profile issues as well as my sensor issues so I'm pretty happy.

call sprint tell them you have crappy coverage in your house they will send you a Airrave for free did wonders for me.
I had this issue occur about a week ago. I noticed it after I Flashed EF02 and upgraded my radio to EF10, then downgraded to EF02 and I couldn't upgrade again.
- Then I started getting the PRL and profile error. I called sprint support and they tried to rebuild my network profile but it still didn't work.
They told me to take it in to a sprint store to have a tech look at it. The tech said the reason it errors out it because there are network issues here locally and the towers are down. He also said that i will get that error when there isn't a PRL to update to.
I know both of those are bull**** because I have updated my PRL many times and it doesn't give an error when there is no update.
How to downgrade PRL?
I manually (using Settings>About Phone>System Update) updated the PRL from 60676 (whatever it was earlier) to 01120. I am having a lot of issues with 3G connection now. I haven't come across a way to downgrade my PRL back to the previous one, or manually flash the previous PRL. Does someone know how to do that? Googling this issue did not lead to any ehlpfl threads. Thanks.

My wife's phone has done the same thing since it was new, won't update the prl or profile after all the stuff happening to my Epic and being on the 4th one I wonder about the Epic. I think Sprint tells everyone they have towers down in their area. I called them Saturday because my epic got stuck in roam and I had no data connection and the first idiot I talked to told me that. After the wife got home with her epic and it wasn't roaming I called back and the second person said they had no idea why they told me that, anyway long story short the repair center I had to go to said the same thing, which is total BS. Maybe thats their standard answer to not knowing or admitting they have no clue.
So i recieved a notifaction today that my samsung epic was eligable for the gingerbread 2.3 update. Knowing not to get my hopes up, I followed the instructions to update, but my phone kept telling me my current andriod version was up to date.
I called sprint technical support which was the biggest waste of two hours of my life. They ended up screwing up my phone, which I had to manually get working again.
I finally called my local sprint store to see what was going on, and he told me that spring PULLED the samsung epic 2.3 update because many clients were reporting problems with their phones. He told me it would become available again in the next 3-4 weeks. I have no idea how he would know this information, but im leaning towards speculation. 3-4 weeks is 6-8 months in sprint langunage. He said his is working completely fine, and he would be fine with me to come down and he will manually put it on my phone for me, but warned if my phone bricked, it would be stuck that way (aka i would have to use odin to send it back to stock).
I manually put the E122 version on my phone and so far have ZERO problems. Is anyone else aware of sprint jumping the gun on this one and pulling this update?
I've had the Epic since day 1.
They have pulled EVERY-SINGLE-UPDATE in the history of Epic updates.
It's almost laughable. I can't wait to get a sprint phone that sprint and samsung dont mess with (nexus prime, etc)
I have the correct version right? EI22 is the latest and greatest?
What happens if sprint releases a newer update, will I have to manually remove this one and go back to froyo eco5, or will my phone update ok?
can you point me in the direction of the way you updated this with zero problems? thanks

Im not sure if your being sarcastic, but I will point you anyways.
Before anything, make sure you have FROYO ECO5 Installed, and nothing else.
1.)go to ww.gottabemobile.com/2011/11/09/samsung-epic-4g-gingerbread-update-rolling-out-can-be-manually-installed
2.)rename the zip file they have for you download to update (NOT UPDATE.ZIP, just UPDATE)
3.)put the file on your SD card
4.)start phone in boot mode
5.)update.zip will appear on the boot screen, select it.
your phone will update automatically.
Since it was an official release, EI22 should upgrade to the "GB fixed" version for the Epic, even if OTA is stopped. A quick google search doesn't confirm that the update was stopped. Not saying you're wrong, but could be misinformed.

I agree. I mean it made sense and all, considering i was unable to update via OTA and my phone said my andriod version was currently up to date.
I guess only a certain percentage of users are getting it at the moment? I dont know, I have it now and thats all that matters.
Only complaint I have is their new system they use to kill aps. I loved the fact I didnt need advanced APP killer with my epic, but this new interface is really confusing me.

No, im not rooted. I have the update now anyways, I downloaded directly from google and put it on my epic manually, so far so good.

I agree. I mean it made sense and all, considering i was unable to update via OTA and my phone said my andriod version was currently up to date.
I guess only a certain percentage of users are getting it at the moment? I dont know, I have it now and thats all that matters.
Only complaint I have is their new system they use to kill aps. I loved the fact I didnt need advanced APP killer with my epic, but this new interface is really confusing me.

My wife's stock epic had the same update notification and the same everything is up to date. So I talked to a friend who works at a sprint store and he explained the whole market queue thing for the update (unnecessarily I might add).
He then called support and talked to one of his buddies there who told him that they are getting slammed with calls about this and that they can't do a thing about it if the person isn't up in the queue.
Hell of a way to push an update.
go figure sprints always tryin to screw everyone they can. good thing we have devs and root to make them acutally work faster and better!
+1 to everyone who knows anything bout andriod
Sprint stated it would be completed over 8 days to ensure it goes smoothly. which means the 17th is the last day. Also it is not listed as suspended on their site. EB13 was immediately listed as suspended when they pulled it.
Sprint zone just sent me an update stating that gingerbread was available. I don't think they've pulled it. But hey its sprint so who the he'll knows! They'll probably wait until they push it to everyone and then pull it ;-)

EI22 killed my GPS
I dloaeded the stock EI22 and did the update and my GPS went totally dead. Even used Status/setup to try and get it going again to no avail. Went back to stock EC05 and it works like a charm....go figure. I'll just wait for the OTA and see if it works any different....

You just need the GPS fix. That's the only problem I see with stock ei22 and the fix makes it work fantastic. Even better than ec05 in my opinion.

Ota not canceled. My girlfriend and I both have epics. When sprint put update on their website I odin'd her phone back to stock ec05. Last night she got the sprint notification to update.

Yeah, that "your update is ready" message from Sprint is automated and isn't related to your spot in the queue. The same thing happend to me (I got the message days before the OTA was pushed to me) when Froyo got released. I can't tell you how many days before, I waited a day and a half and just did it manually.
yeah, that notification has no bearing on when you get the update. i got notified on my phone about the update hours after i already did the manual upgrade.
