Sprint still having GPS problems? Try this!

I'm with Bell not verizon - for some reason you cannot reprovision using those codes with Bell. If you get stuck like I did where you can't make calls and have no net access then more than likely your phone number got overwritten by the ##786#, you can do the following. Open the phone app and enter ##MSLCODE# this will open a window where there are two fields; I forget what they are but you change the values of both to your phone number and you should be back up and running.

Maybe this is a manual reprovision.

BTW Ghetto - is your PPST cab the same as the one included in the Sprint leaked rom?

Wow, thanks! just to clarify this for any other users, the phone number you enter is the 10 digit one. FOr instance, my phone is Lets say 1-418-678-4456

the code in my phone would be 4186784456

Thanks again!

We might be getting closer to me trying this one more time. Can someone put together an updated list of steps now that we have all this new info?

True, but just grab your phone, open your dial pad, ##MSL number here#

If it opens something up, then it works for you...

I am pretty sure in Ghettoryder's response, he sais yes to both question that were asked by the poster, one of which was if that was the manual way to do what he was doing with *22803 commands. Can you Confirm this Ghetto?

Thanks

FOR BELL ONLY - not sure how this procedure works for other providers.

For Bell all you really have to do is load up the leaked sprint rom (skip customizations), run ppst cab, run ppst exe, load ROM of choice and you should be up and running.

You shouldn't need to do any phone codes or anything else. If you run into an issue where you have no phone or data access (ie. they don't work) then opne your phone app and type in ##msl code# and this will open up an EPST screen. On this screen ensure MDN and MSID are both your 10 digit phone number.

My GPS works much much better after this whole excercise - am getting signal in areas I never ever could.

Good luck.

I am pretty it would look like this...

1) Download, install and run the sprint ppst
2)Obtain your MSL
3)##786# and click menu>reset. Enter your MSL
4)Dial ##MSL code here#
5)Replace both field with your phone number(10 digit one)
6)flash your desired rom

Confimation anyone?

So Does This work with OMJ's verizon rom?

Updating the pri, from what i understand and the way i did it, is done before flashing to a custom rom... In other words, when you are in sprint leaked or alltell leaked, you run ppst there.
