Difficulty: Moderate

Instructions
Things You'll Need:

CDMA Phone USB Data Cable QPST (any version) Cell Phone Modem Drivers ESN Checksum Calculator XVI32 Hex Editor

1. 1 First you need to learn your MSL(SPC) Code. To get this you will need to call up your Service Provider and ask for it. I have found that telling them that you are activating your phone and you need to complete the activation, that they will be more inclined to give it to you. 2. 2

Software Needed Second, you will need to download QPST (any version), An ESN Checksum Calculator, and XVI32 Hex Editor. I currently use QPST 2.7 I have attached some of the harder to find ones at the bottom. 3. 3

Modem Drivers Next, you need to get the Modem Drivers for you computer and connect your phone to your computer. These modem drivers can be found usually on the Carriers Website. I know that on Sprint if you access your account, click on "Phone and Plan", Then "Phone Details", and go to "Software Downloads", you can download the package that includes all drivers for all Sprint phones. 4. 4

Device Manager After you install the drivers and have your phone connected, go to "Device Manager". You can access this by right-clicking on "My Computer "and going to "Properties." Find out what Com Port Your Phone Is Using 5. 5

QPST COM Port

After you learn the Com Port, open up QPST and click "Add New Port." Select your COM Port and click "OK". 6. 6

QPST Config Now if everything worked right you should see this. 7. 7

$SYS.ESN Now Click Your Phone and then "Start Clients", then "EFS Explorer". You will be prompted to enter an "SPC" which is the MSL Code you got earlier. Wait for the phones NVM to load then navigate to: "NVM" > "$SYS.ESN" Copy "$SYS.ESN" somewhere on your computer. 8. 8

Checksum

Now open up "ESN Checksum Calculator". Enter the (HEX) ESN from the new ESN you want to use. If you only have the 11 digit number go to this website. http://www.elfqrin.com/esndhconv.html Click "Calculate" to get your "Checksum" 9. 9

XVI32 Alright, Now open up XVI32. Using XVI32 open the $SYS.ESN file you saved earlier. Inside will be a whole bunch of numbers. Your ESN and Checksum numbers are inside here. The ESN number is the first 4 boxes on the last row, and the Checksum is the next 4 boxes on the last row. The way you have to enter them is weird so pay attention. In my case my ESN number is AB2B3C4F So in the first 4 boxes I put 4F3C2BAB, and the same thing with the Checksum. Refer to the picture. So by breaking the ESN number into sections of 2 it is much easier. Original- AB 2B 3C 4F Afterwards- 4F 3C 2B AB That makes it much easier to see. 10.10 After you finish that, save the $SYS.ESN and then copy it back into EFS File Explorer, and let it overwrite the old one. After that, you are all done. Unplug your phone and restart it. When you do you will have a new ESN number!
