Attached below is the internal Sprint document of the recent improvements of the PRL.
Mainly for everyone who doesn't want to read and see the new coverage it turns on 3G Roaming in the following states:
- FL
- MI
- OH
- WV
- WI
- NC
"- PRLs expand 3G/Mobile Broadband roaming coverage in Florida, Michigan, Ohio, West Virginia and Wisconsin.
- PRLs also add Strategic Alliance Roaming (SRA) to portions of North Carolina. Customers will have a Sprint like experience for voice and 3G services, meaning the roaming light will be off and billed as on-network."
I'll also be writing an article describing in details exactly what is going on.
Glad to see you on here still bro
Good deal! Thanks for this...

Mine was finally able to update yesterday, do I still need this?
Sent from Maxwell's shoe.
Of course I'm still here.
(I didn't sell my Epic)
Instead, I am going to give my Epic to my mom and use her upgrade to get the EVO 3D. When I was in CTIA, the EVO 3D blew me away. It truely is the best device on the planet at this time.
So this is for only people that live in those states?

I apologize, I misunderstood. By reading the document I thought it came out last week.
Thanks for the clarification.
I updated mine manually.
I updated mine manually since I can not receive ota updates due to the fact that I am on a custom ROM. There is a thread on how to do it in the development section. Below are the file you will need to update you PRL manually.
Thanks for posting this... always nice to see the text to go along with my analysis I do.
Now only if they would mention the dirty little tricks they do while roaming

I knew u couldn't leave us this early lol =). I been bashing the Evo 3D too as I'm not impressed with 3D & just simply being tired of all these UI's that bloats the phone down & makes getting updates seem impossible. I was either gonna keep my Epic or get the Nexus S, but the one reason I may get the new Evo is for Netflix! Also, HTC really surprised me too with the dual core processor, I really thought they were gonna throw the 2nd gen Snapdragon in it & call it a day. Now my only worry is will HTC lock down the bootloader, as they been hinting around that they're gonna start doing it going forward.

Yup, EVO 3D is the first with the 8660 processor. It will have NetFlix support. And alot of people misunderstand 3D. The phone runs in 2D, but certain applications have 3D support. Sooner or later everything will supoport 3D, but not right awhile.
The EVO 3D runs soooo smooth. I have a video of it running and it is a amazing. The new HTC Sense is awesome. I LOVE HTC Sense, I have always been an HTC fan, but the Samsung Epic impressed me too much to pass up. I had the HTC Vouge, and I made the first M2D custom rom for it, and I was the first to perfect it. The HTC Hero was my next and the Sense on that was incredible. I now see that the EVO 3D's Sense has surpassed all my expectations. I work with all the Sprint phones so I get to use everything, and by far the EVO 3D is greater then all. The LG Thrill and the Moto Atrix has nothing on it.
Trust me, the 3D is not a gimmick. This is legit and awesome! I will be getting it the day it comes out for my personal phone. HTC Sense, may be bloat to some, but it is by far the best UI out and even better then Launcher Pro IMO. I know I'll get hate mail for that, but Sense is the best UI out for Android currently.

Verizon's is the roaming coverage we get, it's the only carrier we support roaming for. Idk who the exact company who owes the towers...but I can find out.
i didnt know if anyone has seen htc confirm we are getting android 2.3 officially in q2 so i emailed them and this is what i got in response.
I understand how important it is to have the most current software available for your device and I am happy to inform you that the G2 is scheduled to receive the 2.3 update later in the second quarter of this year.

Desire HD apparently getting theirs OTA now. Surely ours should not be far behind.....Surely?
What it means when ours is released is hopefully rmk40 will release an official virtuous 2.0 rom. It might also move us closer to the point where they release the kernel source and we can start seeing overclocking kernels for Gingerbread sense roms. (and trackpad wake etc)
According to Engadget:
"That just leaves the Desire Z and original Desire, both of which should be joining the party by the end of June. "
So more or less two months later. No matter, maybe they will make even more fixes and changes for us. (Maybe a version of Sense 3.0 for our "weaker" phones - but I doubt that)

The only reason they are saying end of June, is because HTC said it would happen by end of Q2. So it can happen anytime between now and the end of June.
True. But I rather expect the end of June and be surprised than the otherway around

Given the track record with everyone involved regarding prompt releases (Google, T-Mobile), it'll be at least November before it's actually available. How many months were us old Dream users waiting on Cupcake? Donut? Eclair (which turned out to be vaporware for the Dream)?

there is no way it will be november since we already have a leaked version for the stock gingerbread rom and it seems to work perfect... i dont see a reason for it taken to long to be released.

Wow, a lot of G2 owners here that came from the Cliq. I gave my Cliq to my dad after I got the G2. I remember Motorola's definition of "coming soon" for the Eclair update. Lol
Luckily we had developers like J_r0dd and HandlerExploit working on the Cliq back then.

I was wondering which of the devolopers will be leaveing for the 3D (or else where). I sure some will stay, but all good things come to an end. Thought I would throw this out to be kicked around, so to say.
Im not a Dev but im getting the 3D but also I'm keeping My EVO.

I'm sure some will continue with the evo also tho.
Sent from "Deebo The Evo" via XDA premium
I wouldn't worry about this too much. Yeah, there will be some jumping ship but if you peak XDA's front page the Evo is the most popular phone on XDA. I tossed the idea around to go with the 3d but I want to see reviews once its released. I would be willing to bet that with the first 3d phone there are going to be bugs like crazy. I know they test a lot but there are bound to be some issues.
cant wait to see what happens with the 3D. im sure everyone wont bail at first but it will happen
unless i can get a 3d for cheap ill pass on it for now and wait for the galaxy s 2 to come. i think the evo has a good 6 months of dev life left in it.

Yeah from what I've seen review wise about the galaxy s2 and say...the HTC sensation, the Samsung looks a lot smoother more snappy over all unless you can't live without HTCs UI (i like it personally) then I would go for the GS2 from what I've seen. And I don't think they're going to screw it up and put a keyboard on it this time. (that may change with other versions on down the line though)

EVO is the most popular currently because the 3D is not even out yet. With that being said I'm sure devs will work on multiple phones. Myn works on a few different phones for example.

Where did you get info that the Galaxy is coming out in July? The verizon post was retracted.
Some of the dev.s for the Evo don't even have an Evo. It's not required to own the phone if you're a skilled enough developer. And we definitely have those on board with the evo.

These threads make me laugh. You're looking at devices that you can know nothing about. Look at the specs for the Tbolt before it was released. Even just a month or 2 out. They aren't anything like the actual device. People swooned over this thing like a coming god. Now people just wanna talk smack about it. This is just a trip into Mr. Rogers land of make-believe.

You're right on the speculation... Nine times out of ten,the so-called facts are inaccurate.
But a big part of the fun of owning one of these gadgets is the excitement and speculation that goes around before they are released. We can't even imagine what's going to be available to us 6 months from now, and one of the best things about being a techie is seeing a device and having the bar raised for what we think is state-of-the-art. Why not have fun with that and put those future devices against what made our jaws drop 3 months ago?
Having said that, the only speculation that gets under my skin is updates. No one ever knows when they are coming, not even the so-called "insiders"... But people still throw out random months and quarters trying to sound like they're actually in the lab watching someone typing up code for it. LOL sheesh
Sorry for the ot post. The Vigor seems pretty cool.. lets hope it actually works, eh?

I just think a good measure of sanity is needed, consideration of history, and a dialing back on the dreamy factor. As for updates, the only people that but those or post those must have really sore knuckles from dragging them like an ape. I'm talking life forms slightly more evolved than tree stumps. They just drive me crazy and I can't resist messing with them.
Do you think that Verizon will allow early upgrade to the Vigor from the launch Incredible? Otherwise the first incredible people should be able to upgrade in January.

I've had the Inc since launch and my early upgrade status started in June...waiting to see whats rootable Motorola phones are out so HTC and Samsung are only candidates.
The Htc Touch Pro was my first Verizon Smartphone and it was a dog...people jumped on the Touch Pro2 like it was going out of style and then The Imagio now Android is the hot thing so who knows in October or later on this year I might put my Galaxy in my backpack with my Motorola s-10 headphones and use that as my cellular device.

"Eagle". Interesting.
I think we're all already calling it the "LTEvo", though .
Ooohhhhh. I like that LTEvo. Like the way it rolls off the tongue. Hadn't heard it before. (EvoLTE, -like 'eVolt' - is nice, too, though, I think)
And why E4GL? Is eagle it's code name (like 'supersonic') or something?
Thanks for preorder page.

I second that LTEvo sounds great.
Can't wait. Don't know why people are freak'n out about the look. Seriously, this phone is packing extras that the htc one x doesn't have. Bigger Battery, removable sd card, a kickstand.
All I'm worried about is how much is going to cost me to get this phone. I have the EVO 3D now and it will only be a year into my contract by the time the LTevo is out. Does anyone know how this works, need to prep

Anyone else going mad about sprint announcing this like 2 mo in advance?! My god, the wait is killing me. (I remember the same thing for OG Evo, too, though). Every day, looking at pictures you've already looked at 1,000 times, Googling for any new info every few hrs. It feels like forever already.
(Still, gotta say I'm back and forth regarding the aesthetics. Sometimes I think it's gorgeous, then sometimes I wish the lines were more like the OG Evo, which I still think is one of the sexiest phones available)

Agreed I can't wait.
I completely dismiss the look cause i have a tendency to mod my casings. And any time an ugly phone comes out that is worth the hardware in it. There tends to be alot of modders coming up with different options to pimp out the phone.
How epic would it be if some one made a clear cover for the top/back half?
Cant wait to see what the modding community has in-store for this awesome phone.
can't wait till it is released and I go to work on modding the shiny black cover into something more of my liking..lol

Also, I truly hope someone makes a 3rd party covering for the SD card that is a matte black finish so those fingerprints don't go all over.
Speaking of cases, are there any that are advertised yet? Or does it usually take a while? I've never bought a phone on release day - this is killing me!
