yes you can enable diagnostic port without msl, and change prl, but no MIN, MDN or A-KEY changing without the msl code.

even if you have AKEY, you can not change it through DFS.
AKEY only can be changed through OTA programming.

verizon note 3 can easily change AKEY though, just wondering what blocking sprint note 3 from changing AKEY.

This method works just follow the op's instructions to a T and youll be running on a different network, its a real simple procedure,

As i mention earlier, akey can only be changed through OTA programming, and the funniest thing on my case, OTA programming only change akey but failed to program mdn, min, etc, so i have to manually edit them with dfs

Akey can be changed manually, but note 3 it's not allowing you to change.
There are many posts on XDA & another million sites on how to.

I have a feeling a paid CDMA WS will do the trick, I think it's time to buy the new CDMA.
