Yes I got my MSL and unlocked the phone and when I go to "Data Parameters" I only see the Dial String..I don't see any entry for Rev A. I am supposed to be on the "Data Parameters" Page correct?

speedtest.net gives you the results I believe

Lol, called Tech support at Sprint to posse the question to them. According to them if you are on Rev a it should say REV up top instead of 1X or EV for EVDO. They didn't know anything about the Enable and Disable in the EPST.

I wouldn't take anything they say seriously, I can confirm people have gotten rev A speeds with no rev indicator on their phone

My whole area is Rev. A and i'm running Rev. A speeds, same old EVDO icon.

As far as where to run a speedtest, I find speakeasy.net/speedtest is faster than speedtest.net and tends to be more accurate.

That's not true, man those guys are idiots. I have the PX500 card for my laptop and it's been on Rev A ever since they upgraded my area months ago. There's no Rev icon on my mogul

Hey bro, when in that screen. Press view info, highlight the section that states data parameters. That's where Rev. A. is at. You must have gone in edit, MSL. to make changes, otherwise your just viewing what's there.
