HOW TO GET YOUR SPC or MLS CODE from a QWEST/SPRINT 6800 MOGUL easily
Found the post at ppcgeeks which worked excellent for me in getting my spc or mls code

Someone want to verify a different way to get MSL?
I was playing about with my Sprint Mogul and found a couple of ways to get your MSL... They basically both get it the same way, just take different routes to get there.

Two different ways to get MSL:

Method A:

* Change the following registry entries in:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\HTC\ATDbgLog
Enable: 1
LogMode: 1
* Wait a reasonable amount of time and soft-reset (I have noticed that it seems to take longer for this value to take affect, so if you reboot and the registry values are not changed, then you need to do it again and wait longer)
* Check to see that the file \Temp\ATDbg0.txt has been created.
* Return the values back to what they were (most likely 0) waiting the same amount of time as above.
* Look in the ATDbg0.txt file and you should see a log of commands sent to the CDMA radio and there should be something like this somewhere in the file:

Code:

11:9:3 Tx:AT+HTC_RMSL=0\r
11:9:3 Rx:+HTC_RMSL: 354201\r\n0\r
11:9:3 Tx:AT+HTC_ROTKSL=0\r
11:9:3 Rx:+HTC_ROTKSL: 216112\r\n0\r

* The numbers next to the Rx: +HTC_RMSL line should be your MSL... I do not know what the ROTKSL is for, but included it in the snippet incase someone knows.

Method B:

* Start your favorite pocket-pc terminal program (like pocketPutty - http://www.pocketputty.net/)
* Connect to com9 (Putty used default speed of 9600)
* type in AT+HTC_RMSL=0 and hit enter, your MSL will be displayed.
* Soft reset to restore phone functionality

Let me know if it works for you...

Thanks,

Geoff

Does anyone know how to unlock my ppc-6700 that is currently on Qwest, so I can use it on Verizon. I want to switch carriers, but I do not want to buy a new phone. I tried one unlock ocde I found, but it was the code used to unlock the phone so another number could be used. I have absolutely no idea if this is possible, but if you can help me I'll do my best to repay the favor. Thanks in advance. -ikellum1

awesome site, thanks for the help. I was able to get my new ppc6700 up and running with the getspc file worked like a charm. Thank you!!!

Great!! Post#2 is the only that worked for me (Method "A"), because GetSPC gives me a bad SPC code...Thanks

I have a sprint ppc 6700, but i'd like to unlock it and use it on at&t. If this is possible, please point me in the right direction!! Sorry, but I have no experience with this sort of thing so I'll need a more layman/step by step approach...

Not possible. Sprint is a CDMA carrier, AT&T is a GSM carrier. They are not compatible together.
