I used a program called QPST to check/change my MSL. I had a Sprint phone that I flashed to work on the Alltel Network. I had to change the MSL to all zeros and it worked fine. There's a Tutorial somewhere on PPC on how to do this. I'm too lazy or I would have found it for you.

It really wasn't hard. You hook up your phone to your PC, let active sync load. Launch QPST Configuration, and add a port. Then you open Service Programing and select the device all the way at the bottom (it doesn't recognize the diamond by default). Then you connect. Click get information from phone and it will fill in all the boxes. You will see your MSL on the first page, you can change it there if you'd like. Just change the number then click write to phone.

From what people said if you don't know what you're doing you could seriously bunk your phone up, so proceed with caution.
