Anyone knows how to bypass the sprint activation process if one wanted to use the device on wifi only?
It would require your msl. Since no root, you'll have to get someone at sprint to give it to you.

Thanks. Can explain how do this with root (once root becomes available) and how to do it using MSL way?

I dont know if this would answer your question but airplane mode should work. Just have to enable to wifi again.
Get connectbot from the market and use it to get a local prompt on the phone. Issue getprop ril.MSL. The output should be a six digit number. That's your msl.

Thanks! that worked and i have my MSL.
Now i just need to know how to bypass the activation screen
do ##MSLHERE# on the dialer and program in a random mdn(phone number) and msid. then youll also have to connect the phone to qpst service programming and write a data profile in profile 1 space. then when phone boots up u should only have error 67 network failure real quick.. then no activation screen etc.
##8778# and set as modem to get phone into diag mode so qpst can see it. and youll need drivers too.

ok i created this thread to see how many of you are running on boost and how much you paid for it to be done or if you done it your self
Won't find to many answering that one cause of legal issues with it . Lol
I did it myself. I would suggest everyone do it themselves because when problems arise you'll know how to fix it. I see alot of people stuck because they don't know what they have to do when they lose data, and they have no more contact with the only person who has what they need. It's funner to tinker yourself anyways
I am on boost but right now im having issues with mms .. can anyone help with my apn settings etc

I saw you sent me a message but this is exactly what I was going to tell you
This is my 2nd Evo on boost. Everything works just depends on the ROM I'm using. I find a lot of trouble sticking with ASOP ROMS as their lack of GPS support and no EPST menu. Other than that love it. I had mine done by the same people that also did my TP2.
And no, it's no legal if you're paying for the service ALREADY and you OWN your "to be" donor phone that you'd clone to the Evo.

Hey all,
Does anyone know how to fix rotation issues (previously a terminal emulator fix) or obtain the MSL code (connectbot and MSL reader no longer work) on gingerbread?
Thanks!
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA Premium App
My only advice is if the ways to get your msl don't work on gb anymore than make a backup in cwm and flash back to froyo. Get your msl and then restore your backup. Shouldn't take to long.

For MSL, get the terminal emulator so you have the linux command line, and enter:
getprop ril.MSL
Worked just fine on EE03.
Thanks Nuclear, that worked fine (was case sensitive). Now for the screen rotation lag issue...

how are you getting yours i just rooted using zedomax
Use msl reader from market?
If rooted, download MSL reader from market.
msl reader if rooted
for anyone who isn't just call Sprint. They don't seem to care anymore and they just give it to you for no reason...you used to need a compelling reason ("my work IT department needs it for security clearance at some of our clients" worked every time back when they would say no more than yes)
Just rooted and installed MSL reader and it is giving me an error /dev/smd0 does not exist. Any ideas?
Msl is not working for me i get errors
MSL Reader is only for HTC phones. Until someone figures out another way, you'll have to get it from Sprint.

Use connectbot and use samsung keyboard and you wont need root if you use swype it capitalizes the I in ril for some reason easier than calling sprint dont need root.

Wow I was such an idiot for not realizing Swype was capitalizing the I in ril all this time. Using another keyboard fixed it. Thanks.
Confirm this works without root

I didn't even have to type su as it already had the "#" there so I changed to Samsung keyboard and enter commands, output appears to be MSL
Like the title says: I'm not receiving incoming calls while I'm surfing the net.
I'm fully stock running Gingerbread EL29, 2.3.6
What's causing this and how can i fix it?
You might get a quicker answer in the Q&A forum. How are you surfing the web? 3G, 4G, Wifi?? Or is it on any connection?

Pretty much any connection.
Love the et4g but if I cant receive phone calls then.....
You should be getting internet as long a you browse using 4G or WIFI. Calls are made through 3G and 3G only allows one or the other.
Good luck!

Sorry, when I said "Calls are made through 3G and 3G only allows one or the other." I meant that you can only do one or the other at a given time through the 3G connection. As long as 4G or WIFI is enabled you can do both simultaneously.

Not real sure how to help you if you are running stock. You shouldnt be missing calls while surfing the web. You might could try updating your PRL and Profile. Otherwise, talk to Sprint.
When a call comes in and you are on a data connection, you have the choice of the call interrupting the data connection or being sent to voice mail.
The DDTM (Dedicated Data Transmission Mode) entry controls which behavior you get. DDTM on means data has priority and voice gets sent to voice mail. DDTM off means voice will interrupt your data connection.
To change the setting go to ##DATA# and edit the EVDO entry.
You'll need your MSL to edit (getprop ril.MSL)
Settings/call settings/DDTM its there too, uncheck it.
It is great they exposed the setting on this phone. Some phones hide it for some unknown reason.
Open a terminal.. type:
Getprop ril.MSL
Open dialer. Dial:
##3282#
Click on EVDO. Make sure DDTM is enabled.

Question: I just got an Epic 4G Touch a couple days ago. I am rooted on stock EL29. When I run Getprop ril.MSL in terminal emulator I get just a blank line. If I just run Getprop, I don't see ril.MSL or any mention of MSL anywhere in that massive list of data.

MSL Reader in the market doesn't work, says it's just for HTC devices. Unless there's another one, but I only see one MSL reader when searching for it.
EDIT: Actually, just got it to work by using swype and typing exactly "getprop ril.MSL". I thought I tried it that way before, but guess not. I was typing it "Getprop ril.MSL" as it was posted previously in this thread.
Thanks for the help.

As you discovered it is case sensitive. Most of the time people get it wrong because one of the keyboards auto capitalizes the "I" in "ril" without people noticing. Also it won't show up in the generic list when you just type getprop.
Dialer codes are not the same if you were wanting to bypass sprints proxy
use this *#*#3282#*#* for the dialer code
Why when I enter my code it said " "modem expect ion occurs" ??

sorry for the noob question but what can you do with this ?
This is the code you dial to be able to view and or program the phone. m.youtube.com/index?desktop_uri=%2F&gl=US is case I was refering too -speed hack- it is how you would program your phone to bypass sprints proxy which seems to be throttling bandwith

This doesn't work because I get "modem exception error" as well.
pretty sure the hack is baked in to begin with in this ROM so no worries!
worked for me, thanks. for some reason this is the only place i was able to find this info on the different dial codes.
Great find! This should've been in the general section.
