It's your MSL number. Look for MSL Reader in the market. Your phone has to be rooted.

don't know if you have found this yet, but the password should be your MSL. there was a thread on finding this in the past I think (search for MSL in the EVO forum), you can call though and ask for it (it's different for each device) or call and complain about something like error 67 where it says it can't retrieve your profile, they will tell you what the password is during the troubleshooting.
What are you trying to do in DATA though ?
also next time put this in QA, this is a question, and try the search button, but until this thread is moved we can help you w/ what you are looking for in data to fix.

Download MSL Reader from the Market my friend.

[Q] Verizon banner-CDMA Workshop

Is it possible to remove Verizon from the lock screen and everywhere else using CDMA Workshop?
I read in the EVO theme section that this was used to remove Sprint, and replace it with a personal name.
I am no dev so I thought I would ask. thanks in advance.
If you found the thread for the evo it should be the same. Also I'm just chiming in to say yes you can change it with cdma workshop.

I just tried this and I get a message that reads "Phona ask for SPC. SPC (6 digits) is required" when I hit write. Not sure what to do now?

[Q] Finding Donor SPC/MSL

Hello!
Before I get to the main point of my post I'll give you guys some background info on my situation. I have a Samsung Seek with Boost Mobile that I used as a donor to get my EVO 4G on Boost. I can make/receive calls as well as SMS but still do not have 3G/MMS. I know that to get mobile internet to work I need to get the HA/AAA passwords from my donor (Seek) and put them into the EVO. Now here is my problem-
I can't get the SPC/MSL from my donor. I've tried using CDMA WS 2.7 as well as 3.8, BitPim, UniCDMA and still cannot get it. When I try using CDMA WS 3.8 to try to read the SPC, I get an error saying "Phone ask for SPC. SPC (6 digits) required." I haven't had any luck with other programs either.
I can try calling Boost and asking them for my MSL but what good reason could I give them so they actually cooperate? I can't really say my phone is malfunctioning since I have to call from my Seek since I have no other phone for them to walk me through servicing the Seek to get the MSL.
Any ideas? I'm open to any suggestions! Thanks in advance,
Rick
*****EDIT
Forgot to add that I have the drivers for the Seek and it is listed in DM under COM6.
SOLVED!!!
I apologize for bumping my thread with this reply but I was finally able to get my MSL.
I called Boost (1-877-855-6673 then press 88. You'll be asked for a dealer number but just say you found the number online and dialed it, they'll still help you.) and told the CS rep I develop apps for phones and was in need of the MSL. He gave it to me right away, no hassles or questions asked!
Thank you for the views! Have a great weekend! I'll be around and hopefully continue to contribute to the community!
I haven't tried this with the Seek, but I've used adb and anycut to find the passwords on a Samsung Intercept. Just root the phone and install Anycut from the app store. Hook the phone up to your computer, have adb ready. In your terminal type "adb shell getprop ril.MSL" and it'll give you the SPC/MSL. Then on the phone, create an Anycut shortcut on the desktop (press and hold on the home screen) and select Data (it'll be the second Data, there will be lots of them). Then tap the shortcut. It'll ask for your SPC, enter it and tap Data Profile. Then on your computer type "adb logcat". Your phone's console logs will start filling the screen. Back on your phone tap Username, then cancel and don't save any changes. Press Ctrl + C on your computer to stop logcat. Your ha and aaa shared passwords will be in there, look for them!
I realize you're good, but just in case anyone else needs their passwords, I know googling this stuff is a pain in the ass. I first got this from here - http :// www .groovypost .com/howto/epic-4g-on-virgin-mobile/ (remove spaces, I don't post much )

[Q] SPC/MSL code retrieval

I have been searching for a way to get my SPC code and have had no luck, I remember back in the vibrant days, it was as easy as an app, I have found tools that will pull it from cdma phones, but our s4 don't count. if anyone can point me in a direction to either pull the SPC or MSL for our s4 it would be appreciated, I am a beginner dev and trying to keep up, Thanks
Hmmmm Msl codes are only for CDMA phones this would include only the Sprint Variant .... Not the T-mobile or Att Verison.
How ? Pay for it there are plenty of sites that get it for you for $2 dollars or less...
But if your talking about Network unlocking the phone ... go to T-mobile or any phone shop with a skilled tech he will unlock it ....
specifically I need the spc code but they are seeming used interchangeably where all searches take you, that's why I included it with my post... its for tinkering with more advanced settings myself,
Its like 2-5 dollars to get it calculated ..

Its simple, go to the play store and download get my msl. Then go to the dialer of the phone, type ##data# and click edit, where it asks for the spc, put six 0's. Only do this once or your phone will restart, It will tell you the code is incorrect. Now go back to "Get My MSL" and click view MSL, profit!

[Q] Sprint to Boost with Galaxy Rush as donor

Ok I have gone through several guides, trying to get this to work. All guides mention using the incognito, but that cant possibly be the only phone that works.
I have the Galaxy Rush, Boost Mobile, 3g. I know it wont support 4g. I just want a nicer phone and happened to have teh E4GT.
I have the tools from the various incognito guides, and I get stuck at the step where I get CDMA Workshop to read my phone. I connect, I dial ##DIAG# and enter my MSL, then connect and click read. I get a failed message. Since I know my MSL already, I try skipping ahead to getting the NV items, using the MSL as the SPL and get failed.
Any idea what I can do to get this working? I have my eyes set on this phone upgrade and will not rest until I get it working xD
Have you tried this?

I'm Also Trying to find a way to access the NV items on my galaxy rush and any help would be much appreciated. So far ive gotten my MSL/SPC and connected using cdmaworkshop, but one thing I noticed is even after I send the MSL/SPC the NV items containing the AAA/HA passwords always say access denied. and the galaxy rush doesnt unlock with the default samsung password. Im not familiar with using QXDM to know how to connect it to the phone, but I think thats the direction we need to go to find our HA/AAA passwords
any luck with reading ha aaa?
yeah any progress would be extremely helpful

Do I need the SPC/MSL to flash to a different carrier?

I bought a sprint GS3 recently, and I haven't been able to find the spec or msl code. I tried the alogcat, viper boy, on lj7, find my msl, sprint msl finder, probably others I'm forgetting too. Cdma wont let me do anything, say bad param or sometimes efs error. Efs explorer won't let me in w/o spec.
It has a esn in the settings menu that ting won't accept, but the esn on the sticker is good. I want to either try the sticker's ESN, or flash to something like page plus.
Oh, and if I tinker around a little in android terminal emulator I can get the get prop ril.MSL command to show a five digit number, 01324, which is almost the same as the OSTKL number, 801324.
I have the same issue. Only get the 5digi Msl

Try this sometimes it works. Call Sprint tell them you where talking to a tech the day before and he had you pull up the msl code in order to correct an issue. That you wanted to know if thy can give you the msl code so you can have it for future use when speaking to one of their techs. That the process took over 20 minutes with them explaining how to get it.
They will give it to you 7 out of 10 times.

just activate your phone online again. when they give you the "special security code" or whatever they call it; that's your msl
