Re: Sprint Touch Pro TP MSL (not for troubleshooting)

So now that we know everyone here knows how to argue and bicker, here's the general consensus:

It doesn't work
MSL codes are not universal

hmmm, maybe you could get in touch with Baffles. I am sure he would like to troubleshoot it and see if the program can be improved in some way

As many have said, the MSL's are device specific, otherwise they wouldn't serve a point. If there was a universal MSL, there would be no point in having device specific codes at all, as everyone would just use the universal one. As for obtaining your MSL, BafMSL Grabber is definitely the way to go. I have never heard of someone having it not work

Parkjam,

Thanks for trying and thanks for "humoring the man", but FYI, the MSL is programmed however the carrier prefers. That goes for the both the "permanent one" and the limited use one so to say that "there would be no point in having device specific codes at all" if the carrier opted to use the same code and make support easier, makes no sense. They might set it up any number of ways, for any number of reasons (many of which most of us likely wouldn't forsee sinse we don't provision thousands of phones per day).

Sarcasm is best served with a side of logic.

BAFs MSL grabber is very nice, and I've had it fail for me. Interestingly enough, I can't recall how I got past that hurdle. There for some time my TP was a nightmare though.
