Trouble Getting MSL with GETSPC...

[popdog54]

I'm trying to make a few tweaks to my TP2. The MSL I get from GETSPC won't unlock the EPST menu. Using the HEX ESN I tried using both upper and lower case letters to get the code but neither of them work. Anyone else having trouble?

EDIT: I forgot, I wrote down the MSL when I activated my phone. It's the secondary 6 digit code. It looks Like GETSPC isn't working with Sprint's TP2.

How do you even call up the EPST menu? I forgot the sequences of the * and #.

I think there is another way that you can find out by editing couple registry entries and wait like, 15 minutes. Let me do some search on that one.

I always use this procedure:

Change the following registry entries in:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\HTC\ATDbgLog
Enable: 1
LogMode: 1

* Wait a about 10 minutes (more time will not hurt), and soft-reset.

* Check to see that the file \Atlog\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:

~~~~~~~~~~~SNIP~~~~~~~~~~~~
00:00:00 Tx:AT+HTC_RMSL=0\r
00:00:00 Rx:+HTC_RMSL: (###THIS WILL BE THE MSL###)\r\n0\r
00:00:00 Tx:AT+HTC_ROTKSL=0\r
00:00:00 Rx:+HTC_ROTKSL: 123456\r\n0\r
~~~~~~~~~~~SNIP~~~~~~~~~~~~


The numbers next to the Rx: +HTC_RMSL line should be your MSL

I've used this one too and have had good luck: http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=43560

That's it, thanks!

Actually I just realized something... if you activated online by an ESN swap, the page where it ask you to do some programming, the "Secondary 6-digit code" is the MSL.

Glad I saved that page.

Yes, I already mentioned that in the first post. Hopefully those who haven't received their TP2s yet will see this. It will save them some trouble.

couldn't you have used BAF's MSL grabber?

Maybe, I've never tried BAF's. Anyone try it? I was just pointing out that GETSPC didn't work on my Sprint TP2.

Tried it, not working.
