Please get the second attachment, the 1.2 update! However, I did leave the original "MSL Calculator" if people want it, by the way. If you're in a helpful mood, please try to make cell A2 less complicated (B3 on the original file). Thank you so much for coming up with the original method, tsx420j! The pictures reference my older version 1.1, but don't feel anxious using newer versions - they work the same way for now.

Here are the new steps you must take;
1. You need your ESN! While on the Finesse "desktop", go to Menu >Settings >8. Phone Info >4. ESN / MEID. Copy the 11 digit number directly under the ESN Dec line.
2.  You can do it by hand. Or you can upload the attached update on your own. Or you can open the attached update in your favorite spreadsheet (yes, this one works in Open Office!). Or you can go to my online spreadsheet @ editgrid.com if you don't mind having your ESN on there.


3. The above image should be very close to what you see; it's the public file. Unfortunately, every edit will allow anyone to see your ESN, so you may not want to use it. I suggest you use the other three methods of accessing the file instead. However with two of those other methods, cell A2 will not be locked out when you open it, so be careful to not modify that cell! If you do, you may need to redownload it.


4. Obviously you need to look at the two ominous cells. What to do?!?


5. Oh yeah, duh. Enter your ESN that you got in step 2.


6. Hit your [ENTER] key, move to another cell, anything to get out of cell A1. Once you do, you win! Cell A2 now has your very own SPC code that should work specifically for your phone, err Fin! You may want to email it to yourself for safekeeping.

Use qpst to view our phones files...

You leave the quotes too, right?

I found one that work really well (atleast for me)
for this to work you got to have microsoft excel.

WARNING WARNING: Do NOT!!!! I repeat DO NOT CHANGE any setting within this menu unless you have writen EVERTHING down FIRST. I REPEAT!!!!!!!!!!!! WRITE EVERYTHING DOWN WITHIN THESE SETTING BEFORE YOU CHANGE THE SETTING. YOU WILL BRICK YOU PHONE. YOU WILL BRICK YOUR PHONE.

On another Note: I notice that if you enter SYSTEM INFO AND enter number 6 which is

To do that get QPST and you can get in the brew folder. I already managed to save a 8min 320kbps
MP3 to my sounds and use it as a ringtone.

Watch the video. @ 51 seconds I open the folder where "Sounds" is located..
Look at the fille DM.mp3 in the folder.
The folder is  located at:  /brew/mod/18067

Im Lost I Watch the video and you show the brew but how do you set it up to see the phone.
I also got that program, do i need the usb cord hooked up to see the phone ? To get in the brew ?

Its funny cause this folder WILL ONLY play outa your phones speakers and not your headphones lol I'm now wondering if we can only play things outa the headphones when files are being read from the memory card, not the phones internal memory!!....  lol
