the mdl's are tied directly in to the phones esn and are unique, no two phones have the same msl.. sprint is very hesitant to give out the msl's, due to the fact a "basic" customer could really mess up their phone. in addition there are two msl's assigned to each phones esn, a OTMSL (One Time Master Subsidary Lock) and the MSL. so they may give you the OTMSL, how ever it will only work the one time. as per sprint policy, an agent is not SUPPOSED to give the MSL out, it is only to be given for programming purpuses.
