+1 did this on a custom rom myself.

For now if you take it into a sprint repair store messed up like this and you are stock and relocked the msl is changed from the default. They will hold your phone hostage for a few hrs then tell u they r ordering you a new phone.

I had my new msl so i just had them reprogram the phone and skipped out on the free phone replacement as the only thing wrong was internet did not work.

With TEP this does not cost u the deductable so this might be a way for people with scratched up phones to get a shiney new one without breaking something and having to pay the deductable.

As most sprint repair stores won't know how to get the new msl code therefore won't be able to reprogram it manually. Sense its a problem they can't fix by hard resetting and the phone actually works all but the internet should not have to pay a deductable to get shiney new phone.



I in no way endorse this method but know that it works, I almost went ahead and had them order me a new phone but with all the issues going around and my phone working fine for the 3 months that i have owned it. I felt like KARMA would bite me in the but and i wold get a defective phone for a replacement.
