Call again and tell them to give it, it is your phone, it is your property. Tell them someone has a gun pointed to your head and you need it or they will kill you.

But seriously, just call back til you find a nice operator.

I'm tempted to drop the "o if you can't help me I'll just cancel since I'm within my thirty days"line

Technically you don't own your phone outright unless you paid the full price until your contract is up.

Call and say that your phone is not allowing you to get a data connection. They will walk you through getting it reset and they will give you the msl in the process to do the restore.

Download a terminal emulator from the market and type

getprop ril.MSL

It will give a 6 digit number which is your msl

The second time i got it but the lady was asking if i was going to use it hack the phone as well.

I just literally called now spoke with a Brandy(sp) and got the msl for my photon and my sons epic which neither I own outright.
I would try back again and like stated in the thread if needed lie and say you need it for developing purposes.
I just asked for the msls and was given them. no questions asked :)

The first time I called they said I couldn't have the number while I was still under contract. They said if I really needed the number then I had to pay the 200 dollar cancellation fee. I said no thanks, I don't need it that badly. I hung up and called back up and asked the new rep who was more than happy she could assist me.

Get your MSL EASY....

I work for Sprint and worked at a call center for sprint in the PAST!! all you have to say is my phone is not working and was told that I need to MANUALLY PROGRAM the phone, they will tell you to type ##*****# (the * are your MSL :)...) then your PHONE number then your MSID... most of the time they will try and get you to just update the profile and just tell them it didn't work...

That's it!! VARY EASY!!!

give me a thanks if that helps...

    need help with MSL?

    I can get MSL's via pm for anyone if you're willing to give two pieces of into to me. at your discretion and all info will be kept confidential and deleted upon msl is given to you. I will not charge for this since its a free info that sprint can divulge if you get a nice enough rep. I will not use any personal info for my personal gain as I do not want to lose my job. just helping out a community that has helped me tons throughout my android phone life.

    ***If you wish to participate I need your phone # and ESN or MEID via PM ONLY If you're wary about giving that info I can do it with your Phone number and last name on account.***
