    What worked for me to to go to the screen where it requested it(thru ##3282# menu) once there type getprop ril.MSL in adb or terminal, if it shows nothing type anything in the msl box, and after it says invalid code retype getprop ril.MSL and it'll show.

    Method #2:

    I didnt develop this, but think it best belongs here. I take no credit for this. This was from Viperboy, and I expect him to get all the credit for it. Please go to his thread and thank him.

    I used the zip from Viperboy in this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1621993

    1. Download the flashable zip and flash from recovery

    2. Let the phone boot and go into terminal emulator (I use adb from command promp in windows)

    3.Type "su". **If using adb "adb shell" then "su"

    4. Type "getprop ril.MSL"

    ****I have had instances where the flashable mode didnt work. In that case, try the manual way listed in Viperboys OP****

    Tada!!!! Right it down.

    Now you can do all those hidden menu things ##DATA##, etc.

    Here is a video of the first method, using connectbot (terminal emulator). http://youtu.be/CWb8ootppo0

    After much searching, I've found the easiest method so far to get your MSL. Even works on the 4.3 update.

    Download the Android MSL reader from here: http://tools.flashingtools.com/SPCUtility.apk

    Install, then open and hit read SPC

    Profit

    Disclaimer: I did not develop the above app. Use at your own risk/huge profit

    My method which I saw someplace here. P.S. im rooted with Blazer Rom installed

    1. Download "Get My MSL" from market
    2. run the app it will fail to get MSL
    3.##3282# hit edit type in any 6 numbers it will flash "Invalid Lock Code"
    4. Run "Get My MSL" app again to show MSL
    5. Done.
