PRL Thread for New Nationwide Plans

KCMO it is 4399 prl, FYI you have to change to one of there new plans to get the nation wide roaming, so if u currently have cricket it will not automatically have the new coverage area!How ever you may get it working with the 4399.prl!
 
I put 4399 (previously 5143) in a BB8330 I carry and it now says I'm getting 1Xev instead of just 1X. My internet loading speed is quite a bit faster.

Anyone have experience how the coverage is with that PRL outside of home area? I updated a lady and she said hers didn't work in an area that should be covered under new rate. She could be mistaken though.
 
I am thinking that we need to start a new PRL thread or append the current stickied one with the new PRLs that are going to pop up (or have been popping up) when the new Nationwide service starts up.

I am also wondering if the "free" towers will still show as roaming or if they will show up as home coverage, like PEC currently does. Any info would be great.
 
I am going to call right now. Especially since you say that it is NOT unusual to have to call them a few times. This would be the third time, and each time they tell me to do a *228.

Wish me luck - I am calling now!
 
I would think it would show up as Home coverage. Im in Cincinnati market *228 a few days ago gave me prl 48046 When i get a chance ill go ahead and try to find out more about it.
 
I just checked the PRL on an A200 that I OTA'd after changing to new rate and PRL was 6299 in my market.

Can one of you flashing experts tell me what I need to do with some 8330s that I have with 1042 PRL as well as 5143 PRL? I bought them from a wholesaler and don't flash phones myself. I don't know if they will work on new nationwide plans.
 
I am also not getting Web or MMS now on my Flashed HTC Touch 6900. I set up my account with the new $40 plan. I open Opera and type in a web site, it takes me to that stupid cricket page...when I click on something there it tells me I need to subscribe for 5 dollars? WHAT?? Its suppose to be on my plan! I click subscribe just for the hell of it and it tells me Mobile Web is unavailable at this time. Please Check back later!!!!! GRRRRRRRR!!!!! Pic messsage senRAB to 99% then fails!! All my setting are correct on the phone!!
I am soooo freakin frustrated! I just bought this phone! A friend of mine has a Tp and everything was working great on it then she updated her account and MMS and Web stopped working! She too just bought the phone! I've been trying to call cricket for 2 days now got thru once but they helped me NONE...now they are always busy...which pisses me off even more! What is happening!!Someone please help!! :doh:
 
I live in the Tucson area. I switched plan yesterday and tried *228 and it didn't work. I loaded the 1042 prl and tried *228 and it did update some things but not the prl. Then I loaded 1041 and everything updated. I now have the 4399 prl. The first thing I noticed was EVDO coming in and out while I was in the house where it never did that before.

Question: Does *228 update the SIRAB too?
 
Good deal. I am anxiously awaiting the Nationwide EvDO PRL. My Pre *228s PRL 38499. It gives me EvDO, the current roaming and PEC coverage. I probably need to use a Cricket hanRABet to get the new PRL next week.
 
My bad forgot to mention that this is a Non-evdo roaming prl. I took a quick look into it and saw that two sid's were added, 6552 and 4274 which both are sprint. Other than that everything is the same as the old prl.
 
cricket sent text yesterday
PLEASE READ. We have made some great upgrades to your Cricket service! Please turn your phone off,then on for the upgrade to take effect.

New prl is 01015 from 1040. I just have talk,text,pics.

It would be nice if they told me what's changed.
