Get the MSL for any Sprint phone using your WM phone.

Ok, Since there are a lot of new phones that use the MEID instead of traditional ESN's, the older GetSPC doesn't really work... Well it does, but you need the pESN in order to do it. So here it is...

An MEID 14 hex digits. The MEID was created to replace ESNs, which are nearing exhaustion. For compatibility, devices with an MEID can use a pseudo ESN (pESN), which is a manufacturer code of 0x80 (formerly reserved) followed by the least significant 24 bits of the SHA-1 hash of the MEID. It is 8 digit hex numbers long. (This was taken from en.wikipedia.org)

Since robj19 Didn't know what a MSL is, I figure I should explain that too. MSL Stands for Master Subsidary Lock. It is also known as SPC (service programming code). Say you want to tweek the DATA on your Sprint phone for the best speed where ever you go in the us, juet hit ##data#, then select edit. You phone will ask for the "Unlock Code". Mine is 340312, but it is dofferent for every sprint phone. Then Change the Primary and Secondary Home Agent to 255.255.255.255. Your phone will then automatically use the one closest to you, and you will get less latency and better speed.

So, if you already have a 8 digit hex, then you have a phone that uses ESN's and you are good to just use GetSPC, and enter it with all the letters in CAPS. If it is not in CAPS it will generate a bogus MSL. If your phone Says MEID, or the ESN is 14 Hex digits, the you need to open the PocketMeidConverter to generate the pESN to use for GetSPC. Use that and make sure you Capitalize the Letters.

I tested this with my Touch Pro's MEID, and it worked to get my MSL.

Just extract SPC.zip to your phone, or storage card on your phone and run it there. Might even work on a Windows Moble Emulator, but I havent tested it.
