I called sprint and they wouldn't give it to me, then went to ProMobileMotion.com and had my MSL code in minutes and was able to remove the activation required easily and change the phone number stored in the phone also- My question is if I sell the phone later will the next person also need the MSL code? So should I save it somewhere? Its 2:00 am here so I didn't really want to call the guys at promobilemotion and ask lol, even though their customer service is great and all its a bit late lol..
