My friend put my epic on Boost and it works fine. I want to give my phone to my sister but I must put it back to Sprint.
I googled and search but I only see Sprint to Boost but not Boost to Sprint.
Its my phone and ESN is clean.
How do I do that?
Can anyone help please thanks
So you didn't write down the settings that u changed?

Couldn't you just Odin flash to the stock ROM and kernel? It should restore all Sprint settings back. Just need to re-register the ESN to Sprint.

Roms, kernels, and modems don't modify provisioning data. I can confirm this with my modified Epic on a $30 SERO plan. This also goes for the MEID, which isn't a legitimate Epic 4G MEID on his Boost-activated Epic. He's going to have to use Google and his brain to repair his meid so it matches what's on the sticker underneath the battery
...or just find someone on craigslist to do the repair instead.

+1, once you fix your MEID, you'll want to odin to EC05, and upgrade to EI22, once your epic is activated again, hands free activation will provision the rest of the needed info.

It's what comes up once you do a Factory Reset on EI22, System Update.apk will initiate it. You'll need to activate that Epic with Sprint before that hands-free activation will work, you also need to fix your MEID if it was changed when you had it with boost.

Has anyone actually done this? I ask because in the 3g thread, it has been said that if you lose one of the keys, it cannot be restored and is needed for provisioning.
If someone gets this to work without saving and restoring the original profile passwords, please let us know here.

If you're on the correct rate plan for the phone, Hands-Free Activation/Update Profile will plug in all the necessary data values granted the MEID is the correct one registered to that account.

That's exactly what Hands-Free provisioning will provide. Given that you restore that Epic's ORIGINAL MEID, as stated time and time again to you. Lol

this is why im debating if it's worth keeping cm7. id like to be able to update the profile, utilize phone codes for data resets and update my prl's. i do not see why the cm team cannot get these to work, i mean they got 4g & hdmi.
at least give us a prl that we can flash, using qpst is too time consuming, so is flashing sense to do it.

It's possible to flash a PRL update but someone has to pull it from their phone first. There was a flashable version of the last PRL linked in this thread.

Mine just updated automatically after I received a call. I wonder if that's something new or of it only does that when it's needed?
52341, 52299, 58008 and Verizon Alltel Hybrid PRL.zip are all new PRL's.
These are for testing.
For all the babies out there who don't like my posts, get a life and go join another forum! Most members would like to have the information out there to research and test. I love this forum and have learned alot from it. Although I've noticed you can't give a little credit to people without them still bitc**** about not getting all of it so none will be given any more.
Anyway, enough of my ranting.
Techknowfile's PRL's are quite old now. They still work, but will not have the most up-to date towers and channels.
I live in eastern ohio and use the 52341.prl.
Step #1: Download and unzip
Step #2: Follow Techknowfile's instructions for flashing. Here is his thread:

Step #3: Test and Enjoy!
Step #4: Give me some Love
The 5XXXX PRLs are strictly Verizon/Alltel PRLs, the SprintVZWPRL is a PRL that was designed for Verizon guys that wanted to roam on Sprint. Which is sweet for us Sprint users that want to use Verizons/Alltels towers but swich back to Sprint if there is no service.
P.S. - These PRLs DO show when your roaming. Please post your speed results and which PRLs work best for you so others can benefit. Use at your own risk, some have been terminated for roaming too much. These are being posted for testing purposes only, dont come crying to me if Sprint whacks your fingers!
FOR ME
Reserved for later.
Could you explain the difference between each prl file please. Looks interesting. Might have to try this out. Is there a speed difference?
Not trying to troll, but you should put a disclaimer in the op that with continuous use of non sprint prl will result in contract being terminated..
There are reports of this in the general thread and on android central. Just a thought so no one starts blaming you or any other member who post these Verizon prl's. Lol they will go on a witch hunt... ha ha

I assume this has to be applied while on a sense rom? And if applied while on sense and i nandroid back to cm7 do i lose the new prl? or would it stick if i just flashed cm7 over sense instead of using nandroid?

So wait is it right to say by loading these you can use both sprint and vzw towers to get your cell service?

Mine only works for phone service. Still connects to Sprint's data, except 999ms ping, instead of 300.

If your PRL updated before and won't now, make sure you have Sprint_app_updater.apk in your system/app directory. Some ROMs removed it as bloat:
Here it is:

So if I load 11115 and freeze these apk's will it stay on that? I don't need to roam very much but there are areas that have absolutely horrible data speeds.

Theoretically yes. Sprint did a push on 60678 a while back and it still changed mine. It should work to freeze those 2 apks but it also messes up Visual voicemail to text.

Apparently business people are more important and it allows for 3G roaming on other networks' towers. So they get a PRL that has 3G turned on at certain roaming towers.

You seem like the person to ask with as much knowledge as you know about phones and all the work you've created; good grief. I am stuck with Sprint and cant leave until next year without paying ETF; long story short; get terrible service and have airave (only works half the time and have 3 replacements-sprint does not want to address to issue; and me being on a SERO account probably doesn't help either) but someone in a different thread mentioned about a sprint diagnostic tool that you can use to force your phone to Roam verizon towers and get the boot rather quickly from sprint; unfortunately he said it was only for samsung devices; http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1774503

I didn't know if there was such a tool that could work for the evo shift that you knew of since you work with other devs and know A LOT about A LOT of stuff. I searched google a bit then headed over here of the forums, but couldnt find much in regards to it for my phone. thanks in advance

No you don't need to change your prl. Also, Several Shift ROMs like newSENSE Supreme Sense and StockMod have roam only as an option built in so you don't have to buy roam control if you don't want too.
