Help PRL Update 60677

from the home screen


menu/settings/about phone/software information

scroll down and smoke over the PRL version: if it says 60676 then its outdated. the latest is 60677

so back to the home screen (just to zero things out)

menu/settings/system updates/update prl
 
So I just updated my PRL. . .and now when I go to update profile it does nothing!! It just sits at a black screen. I also start to to get random black screens while in other apps. Two reboots (one with a battery pull for a few minutes) and nothing new!! WTF. . .the phone is only 2.5 months old and all it's problems are starting to come out!! Maybe I should have stuck to my iPhone!!!! :mad:
 
You already expressed other issues that need repair at a sprint repair center....these issues are not going to magically disappear. Take your phone in and get it fixed up :)
 
Can updating PRL brick your phone??? Cause I think I just did............

Whew!! False alarm. My phone shut down and would not restart. It wouldn't even begin to boot. When I plugged it into my computer it said there was a device malfunction.

About 30 minutes later it started working again for no apparent reason.
 
A PRL is a file that tells your phone the location of cell towers within a region. That's all a PRL does. It's so your phone knows where to look for towers. Towers are constantly going up hence the updates.
