How to get MSL Using new EE03 rom aka Gingerbread - Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So I flashed the gingerbreak leak yesterday and my gps is not locking. I flashed the gps fix.zip and it didn't do anything. I used connectbot and used the "getprop" command and the msl did not show in the dialog. I also tried terminal emulator and no luck. Any suggestions??
I want the msl so I can hard reset the phone and hopefully that will fix the gps

getprop ril.MSL
The above worked for me. Try it.

Uhhh I tried that... it didn't show. I thought I said that in the original post. I used getprop and scrolled through the whole list and it didn't show. When I typed in getprop ril.msl nothing happens.

Prolly meant "getprop | grep msl" ... try that ...its the command that I use.

Yeah, it's not just getprop...it no longer appears in the list. It is getprop ril.MSL and it pops up all by itself.

Yeah we know getprop by itself doesn't show it. We said use getprop ril.MSL not getprop ril.msl . Capitalization matters in this case.

I was talking to OP. Obviously he only used getprop because he is talking about not seeing it in the list.

getting msl code?

does anyone know if there is an easy and fast way of getting msl code without calling sprint? i know evo had an app for it, but it doesnt work for epic...any ideas? thanks
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=8313179
thx. the connectbot worked for those of you who needs it. just google it.
also, i wanted the msl code to change the slot cycle from 2 to 0 so i can receive the call faster instead of the extra rings it takes to reach my phone.
Er... So, I've tried this several different times, and it still doesn't seem to work. I just can't seem to find the MSL code whenever I type "getprop". I scroll through the whole list and find nothing related. I'll try running ril.MSL and nothing happens when I press enter. Any idea what might be going on?...

This is in the wrong sub-forum. Should be in Q&A. Plus there are a few other threads exactly like this.
You need to use connectbot and in the bottom type
getprop ril.MSL
it will pop right up.

Yeah, sometimes (and I have no idea why) it doesn't work. For instance I can't get it right now, running eh06 stock rooted. If you PM your hex esn, I can give it to you tomorrow

I called sprint and was able to get MSL's for all four of my phones, At different times of course. I just told them I wanted to remove the proxies to try and get a little better data speeds. It worked every time.

Really? In connectbot local picking Samsung Epic then typing "getprop ril.MSL" return key (no quotes and MSL in caps) doesn't return your MSL? That's wierd. Just checked mine and works fine. Maybe hard to see with the small font but it is there.
Wow another one of these threads.

[Q] Check 4g keys= <rsa> </rsa>

i checked to see if my 4g keys were gone and the response is got from adb shell were
<rsa>
</rsa>
what does this mean
Hosed
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
luckily not hosed! (we hope) make sure to type
grep RSA /dev/mtd/mtd0
a common mistake is putting RSA in lowercast (usually shows the results u had)
grep rsa /dev/mtd/mtd0
make sure RSA is all caps.
If you don't see two lines at the end of your screen that say something like:
---RSA Begin---
---RSA End---
THEN you would be hosed.

I'd really like to thank dkdude36! I cant believe how much time I've wasted trying to figure out why I still had 4G connectivity but didn't have (or so I thought) my RSA keys. I never was able to get the string response that people were getting when they entered the grep command. All because I typed in the command using all lower case letters. Very relieved but feel like a PUTZ...
Alright I did this and I'm pretty sure they're gone but its ok cuz ill be able to get a new phone. Also, just to make sure I'm doing this right, to get into the adb shell I just navigate to androidadk/tools from cmd then type adb shell and I get a new line with a "$", right?
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
You need to type su first. It is a rooted command and needs busy box.
weird...i was doing an adb push..got bored and decided to retry my 4g keys check..
but this time when i hit adb shell, instead of getting just a "$"...i got a "sh-3.2#" and then i put the "greg..." stuff in and i got the begin and end RSA message

It should say something like uid=1000(user). What is in the parentheses (user) is your username.
You may also be able to type whoami in the terminal as well. I'm not familiar with OS X so I can't be sure.

Try this...go the data menu in the dialer and get to the point where you have to enter your msl. Enter 6 zero's and hit OK. The pull a logcat (you van use alogcat, free from the play store). Scan through the lines and your correct msl should be in there...it might work, but worth a shot.

All you have to do is enter 000000 in ##3282# > edit and then open terminal emu and type getprop ril.MSL and it will show the correct MSL in the next line

Depending on the a setup the msl may not be housed in ril. Did you try searching the logcat? I am on AOSP right now otherwise i would duplicate it and give ya screenshots. But i used this procedure a few weeks ago. Hope something works for you.

Do this open dialer type ##72786# select edit type 000000 let it fail hit home key, select terminal and type this (case sensitive)
getprop ril.MSL
Hit enter and then it should show a six digit code in between the first line where u typed and the new cmd prompt. It'll be squished up on the left inbetween the 2 cmd lines. It works rooted or not on all twiz roms ive tried, on the sprint s2, s3 and note 2. Another way you can get it is to either go on sprint.com and choose to activate the phone online and put in the msid when it asks and then write it down but dont continue activation or just call customer service and ask them for it 9 times out of 10 they won't even ask any questions they'll just look it up for you

Have you tried this method??
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1745888
You can also try to Open the voice dialer and say "Open APNs" and then choose "Open APNs" from the list that comes up. this is what you need to update for the mms right? the APN's? i am pretty sure you don't need the MSL using this method. Just not sure if it will work.
Also, i think you have to have USB debugging and adbshell active in your settings as well.

I am downloading the file as I type this, but I was wondering after you flash this file and got your MSL, did the phone auto update to the latest versions of everything automatically? I am having the same problem, my phone was flashed to Boost, but I need to fix my MMS settings. No method I have tried has been able to give me the MSL. I am on a stock root.
Here are my specs:
Android Ver: 4.1.2
Build #:jzo54k.l710vpbmb1
I just really wanna know if my phone will go back to all this after the downgrade?
(Forgive me for sounding like such a noob, I haven't dabbled in android development since my first EVO years ago)

Has anyone figure out how to obtain the MSL for our phone?

Can this be done on a non-rooted Note2?
Yes. You dont have to be rooted

Before you use this app, make sure that you do a ##data#. put in any 6 digits ex. (000000) and the phone will show that it was incorrect. NOW, go to Get My MSL and it will work.
Hope this helped.
