Increase call quality!

[Villain123]

I made both changes to the Home and Roaming and also made the change in the ##DATA# and everything seems to be working properly for me. I am not certain if I hear much of a difference in the call quality, but no issues with making or taking calls.

Yes. Get the msl program in the market. It will show you the msl right on the screen. The only catch is you have to be rooted.

Why aren't people just using the free MSL Reader app in the Android Market? It's cake guys.

Can anyone confirm this works with Airave as well?

Sorry if I missed it.

Does not work with airave.

Heard garbled sounds with settings changed in ##8626337# and ##data#.
When EVRC-B was disabled in ##data#, calls went through as before.

Wow... so after reading all 11 pages No one really knows what is going on with this. I would love to see more ppl posting what it did to their phone vs. asking how to get their MSL.

For those of you who did do this to their phone I estimating a 50-50% of working and increasing their call quality (both in low coverage area and not so low). Can anyone else confirm this or should we ask the mods to lock this thread and consider it dead?

Also, can the OP, or anyone else put down a step by step and what each setting may or may not do for thier phone?

Type           Signal?         Bars        Download           Upload
IS-96A            Y             1-2                    Not Tested   
EVRC              Y            1.5-2          1003                414
EVRC-B           Y            1.5-2          1161                342
Voice 13K        Y            1.5-2          657                  63
SMV                Y              1             648                 160
Voice 13K-       Y            1.5-2          867                 98
IS733
IS-96              Y             0-1            506                 56

Last I would like to point out that this was purly a data speed test only. I did not test any phone calls with this, nor did I test the longevity of the battery.

Are these the before or after results and for this information to be useful we would need the opposite results as well.

What are you talking about? These numbers ARE the data... from the stock EVRC through erverything including the questioned ERVC-B. What opposite numbers do you think there is?

As you can see... for my location (inside a building) the signal stayed about the same through out the tests (meaning that changing the setting does nothing for signal strength). The data d/l and u/l rate only changed slightly from setting to setting, which means that doing this (at least for me) was not worth the trouble. However, it might differ from person to person and location to location.

This type of post is what would be helpful to people looking... not "how can I get my MSL from Sprint"... those belong in a different thread.
