I changed my phone number via the Web site then requested to be emailed instructions in case it didn't work right. Msl was in the instructions.

alright I have only tested this on the MI3 firmware, but I have tested it on rooted and stock and both worked. I have sucessfully gotten the MSL without sprint and I also changed it to 000000. Ok so here are the instructions....

MAKE SURE YOU FOLLOW STEPS VERY CAREFULLY, BECAUSE THEY WORK IF YOU DO EXACTLY AS I DO, I HAVE TESTED ON 3 DIFFERENT NOTE 3 NOW AND IT WORKED ON ALL 3 OF THEM.

Ok so first make sure usb debugging is on and unknown sources and that your using the newest adb out and that you have adb access.

next make sure you are on mtp+adb, I havent been able to get it working if diag is enabled so dont enable it.

ok now open the file GETMSL.bat, and its going to run a logcat in the background thats fineas long as its running thats all you need.

VERY IMPORTANT, if you dont do this exactly it wont work ok.

DIAL ##3424# not ##3282# only ##3424# will work, and then click edit or enter msl and then MAKE SURE you put 123456 as the password. Nothing else works that I have tried so it has to be 123456 and then click ok.

Its going to give you a bad spc error, thats fine press back till your at the home screen and sit and wait for 5 seconds. After that unplug your cable from the phone and read the command prompt for your msl. THIS WORKS but you have to follow exactly.

Thanks for everyone who let me get there msl over team viewer and get this fine tuned. If you have questions or need help just let me know Ill be glad to assist you in any way I can.
Could you make a video tutorial for this? I am a desperate non activated N900P international owner...

Can getting this code let you scan for 4g faster if your on 3g? I think it used to on my old Evo. Like if your on 3g but just breached a 4g area doesn't it take some time to hook onto it? I want to make this time smaller.

Can you help me? I always get an error on cmd
and a message "device not found" or "adb not located".
What do I have to do? Does this have to do with usb
debugging? Cause I can't find the option for it enabled.

No root needed all you need is this.

Saw you guys having a problem and all kind of "non noob friendly" methods that cause more confusion than anything so i will hook a brotha up.
1> connect to wifi or your network
2> download attachment
3> use your favorite method to install it on your phone (adb install MSL.apk, or you can move to downloads folder on your phone and install from there.) Make sure to go to Security and enable Unknown Sources
4> install MSL.apk
5> open MSL.apk
6> click on read SPC

You're welcome. Happy flashing

get MSL.apk from here https://www.dropbox.com/s/lz291t03e5ytdic/MSL.apk

Hit Thanks if this helped

i am on MI3 and ##DIAG# does not have an "EDIT" and does not ask for an MSL. My comment about mtp+adb wasn't because i couldn't change them....i was pointing out that your instructions required us to change something you claim we need the MSL to get to. like do step 2 before step one. I don't need to enable hidden menus, I have no problem changing to mtp+adb...because my DAIG menu doesn't require the MSL. having said that im still back to the same problem which is, following your directions, the screen where you tell me i need to input 123456 just doesn't exist.
##DATA#
not ##DIAG#

Any idea if this will work with a Note 4?
I chatted with sprint but they wouldn't give me the MSL. They said not while it's still under contract with them.

I thought it had to be under contract in order for them to give it to me.

Thx

Call Sprint and tell them you may be selling the phone to another country and you need the msl code to unlock it.
Tell them you won't be cancelling your service because you will be activating another phone in it's place.
Good luck! Worked for a friend of mine while I was listening 3-4 days ago.

Damn, thank you. Been trying to unlock my j327p for any network for sometime. Needed my msl for whatever reason( now on to that ) and nothing would work, terminal emulator, phone util and shortcutmaker ect nothing worked.. This worked for my galaxy j3 . .

I thank you
