[Hero CDMA General] kyouko:
First off i thought your whole post was a link since it was blue :confused:

Anyway.. you need your MSL to change both your PRI (Primary Rate Interface) and PRL (Preferred Roaming List)

The PRL (60667, etc) is a database that contains information used to indicate which bands and service providers will be used and their priority.

Your MSL is only needed for PRL updating if you want to revert to an older/newer list via .prl file which is done by entering > ##PRL#

As for PRI or Primary Rate Interface, its a telecom standard for carrying multiple voice and data transmission between a defined network and a user. lol which i know is probably a bunch of mumbo jumbo to most. Your PRI can be found in settings > about phone > software if you have Fresh or the stock rom.

But really, from what I know, there's no point in changing it from the old 1.70_003 to the newer 2.20_003. The only one that somebody may want to change it to is 2.11_002 so they can enable wired usb tethering, but in doing so some Sprint applications won't work and I don't know if updating profile/prl via settings will work anymore.

If you did change it and wanted to change back to a Sprint PRI you would need your MSL... but thats a whole other thread topic :p
[Hero CDMA General] DJB628:
Thanks for the explanation !!! I just received a replacement phone from Sprint so I guess they updated the PRI already, was just curious, thanks again
[Hero CDMA General] DJB628:
I also posted it on another site and C&P it and gave you credit for it, thanks again
[Hero CDMA General] jerry43812:
lol, you guys are funny. Try this EPST.apk and see if it works for you guys who it doesn't work for...

adb push it to /system/app/ then get back to me. You may need to restart.

I do know it was removed from some ROMs, including the one I use, but I just pushed this back into it and it works flawlessly.
[Hero CDMA General] DJB628:

Has anybody been able to get this to work on an Evo?
[Hero CDMA General] ansonqy9:
it worked!!! i got my MSL...thx ;)
[Hero CDMA General] teedo757:
Tried it and it does not seem to work for the EVO
[Hero CDMA General] Blaqdymun:
Doesn't seem to work on custom rom (EVO VIRUS ROM)

NOt working!
[Hero CDMA General] oikjdfkrjhr:
Not working no more. Neither is the adb shell getprop.

Any suggestions?
[Hero CDMA General] regaw_leinad:
One, it doesn't work on the EVO, and 2 most custom roms took out the apks necessary for this to work.
[Hero CDMA General] benzaring:
when I dial ##data## it tries to call?
[Hero CDMA General] digiblur:
There's an easier way... in the terminal emulator app type..

getprop ril.MSL

your MSL will be displayed.
[Hero CDMA General] regaw_leinad:
That has to do with what rom maker has that built in.. not all roms have that value stored like that. In fact, I haven't seen one yet (I may have put that in mine.. don't remember). What rom are you running?
[Hero CDMA General] debh945:
The absolute easiest way I found to get my msl is to download MSL Reader from the market. It requires root though but reportedly works for EVO, Hero, etc.

http://www.appbrain.com/app/msl-reader/com.esccode.msl

Just used it today to get the msl for a replacement Hero and it worked like a charm.
[Hero CDMA General] digiblur:
Worked fine on the stock Epic ROM.
[Hero CDMA General] siberwolf22:
sirius-xm streaming app works after applying fix

Just piling on....fix works - thanks!

Tough part was getting MSL code from Sprint - I was honest and persisted with customer support - got transferred to adv tech supp - they warned me could void warranty - but evidence supported proceeding - took 2 min. to impl and worked like a charm.
[Hero CDMA General] Razorwindmo46:
As of 01/14/11 This method or any method on this site does not work to get the MSL from an EVO 4G
[Hero CDMA General] :
Ok, but does it still work on a HTC Hero CDMA? Seeing as that is the forum this was posted to.
[Hero CDMA General] :
Theres an app in the market that you can d/l called MSL reader install it and it will tell you your MSL code:)
[Hero CDMA General] :
MSL reader works on Hero's and Evo's
[Hero CDMA General] Razorwindmo46:
Apparently some time after this was made available and other ways of retrieving the MSL code, Sprint has blocked these from working. Everything on this site to get it other than just calling to ask for it does not work.
[Hero CDMA General] :
I just installed msl reader from the market on nfinite's ver. of the .2 update and retrieved my msl code . Just to let you know
[Hero CDMA General] kyouko:
Yes, it

still

works on the CDMA Hero. I never tried it using this method on the Evo or any other device for that matter, which is why it's posted here ;)

This method doesn't require root to work, but for those who are rooted the msl reader app is a much easier alternative :)

And it does still work with the .2 update for those who may be wondering.
[Hero CDMA General] JKILO:
To confirm for all...not working on evo shift
[Hero CDMA General] PS4AndroidHacker:
Hey guys,I used MSL Reader. It ran perfectly but came back with an MSL/SPC of 000000,is this correct? I don't run on Sprint or Verizon,I have my phone flashed over to Revol Wireless here in Ohio. No contract and just a monthly bill of $45.00 for unlimited everything. Any help with this is greatly appreciated. I'm trying to get the newest PRL on my Hero manually,any help with that is greatly appreciated as well! Any info how to do it with Android 2.3.4 on the phone already or would I have to downgrade first,change the PRL,then upgrade again?

Works with epic

Samsung Epic

Stock. Rooted.

Ran Logcat

Went to the dialer

Stated data. ##3282#

Went to Edit

I just clicked enter on the MLS

Pushed and held Home button.

Pulled up Logcat.

Paused

Then Filtered for MSL

It was the last line.

[Hero CDMA General] Rogue2204:
Worked on an ACS 2.2 epic

I used this method successfully on my epic. however the steps in the OP didnt quite do the trick..

1. install logcat and clear it if need be

2. open the dialer and dial the ##3282# code

3. click on "edit" and then just hit "ok" without inputting anything for the MSL

4. open up logcat and find the line that is I/MSL_Checker and the 6 digits after "result:" are your MSL!
[Hero CDMA General] Bierce22:
Hey that's actually pretty good ill contact kyouko and and ask him to update the op
[Hero CDMA General] lfis492a:
i'm brand new to this.

how do i view a log file or how to i get the app?? is it an app??? i downloaded java se development kit and the android sdk prog... do i need that to get a terminal screen to view the log file???

Works on E4GT

Tried it on my E4GT and it worked great.
[Hero CDMA General] threadcrapper:
worked for me.

Thanks
[Hero CDMA General] donnyevo4g:
any reason why this would not be working for me i even do a filter with the first few letters and nothing comes up how long did you let in run?
[Hero CDMA General] kyouko:
First of all, are you using an HTC Hero? ;)

guessing by your name, I'd say no. and if you're rooted, there's apps.out there that will get your msl for you with a click of a button. instead of this or getprop ril.msl

but to answer your question, the msl should pop up in the logcat as soon as the dialer code is entered in, you're not really waiting for anything.

the filter is used so you don't have to take forever looking BACKwards through the log.

I tried this on the EVO LTE and I had no luck. Is there any other way? Tried Workshop and kept getting a error.

[Hero CDMA General] Tonei.Stark:
I have a few questions if anyone can answer them please. I have a GS6 Sprint and im not seeing my MSL in alogcat. My first question is; Does this method work for GS6? And also is there a wait time for alogchat to actually find my MSL Code? Plus in the step where i click "View", they said i should see 3 options... well i see 9 options... what do o do from there? Do i click something else? Thank you for all your help. :)

need help

Sprint HTC One m7.... logcat running, ##3282#, choose view mode I get:

Data Profile

EVDO

Advanced

Direct Connect

LTE

DDS

ItsOn

LTE record

PDN setting

choose home key, pause logcat. There is no reference to anything remotely MSL.

I tried MSL Reader off the app store. Its asks if it is a CDMA device, cannot read the radio.... says to write the dev, sent an email never got a reply.

The phone has never been activated with Sprint. New SIM card. Could this be why? I have an unlock code for it but need the msl to flash it to my boost account. Why it was purchased.

[Hero CDMA General] thejackalsmark:
For anyone trying to get your MSL,

Your mileage will vary depending on your phone and carrier. I have an LG Optimus F7 4.1.2 JB on BoostMobile and get the long list of entries and can't get msl with either the steps in this rather old tutorial or any msl reader apps.

If you're on Boost just call them and ask them for it. If they ask why just inform them that they gave it to you when you first got your phone and you can't find it, and want it for your records.

You may or may not be able to just ask for it from other carriers.

I'm used to flashing ROMs, Radios, and recoveries... but I'm not entirely sure about kernels. but I definitely want to flash custom kernel now.

I want to try out Raven's but I have no idea what all the differences is, and if it's safe to use with CM 5.0.7.1

thanks in advance for the help.

Thanks to all 3 of you, however I found this post more helpful since it tells me that BFS is unstable.

Doing a nandroid right now and I'm about to flash 925 CFS :)
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Buck Shot:
on cyan 5.0.6 I used Intersects CFS 800mV . Worked good. I have no idea what they meant and just picked one...lol not too smart huh. I also tried to BFS later and I found it to drain my battery more.

Can someone tell me what CFS and BFS stand for tho?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] craigacgomez:
CFS = Completely Fair Scheduler

BFS = Brain **** Scheduler
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DssTrainer:
I suppose a decent layman summary of BFS vs CFS is found in the conclusion of this document:

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] houzuoguo:
by the way, not all Nexus One CPUs are able to work at 800mV ;) mine cannot, but it works at 925mV or above.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] svghost:
How do these two, CFS + BFS, effect battery life?

Any differences when using one of the other while also undervolting and underclocking?

Im looking for most possible screen-on batt life basicly. It seems like this phone NS4G w/LED has fantastic battery life, so long as your not screen on haha...looking to improve.

Thanks!

If you want to explain how you did it then thats fine but lets try to keep this thread mainly for screenshots and keep the questions in the *Right Place*.

The easiest way is often the right one: those words are just part of the wallpaper picture :p

I took the pictures with the kittens I wanted to use as wallpapers, edited them with Gimp (any other graphic editing app could do though) and placed those words up there with a black background fading to transparent :p

Once saved the pictures, I just used MsM to set them as wallpaper on the panels :D
