Through lots of research all over the internet on how to unlock the sph-l720 internationally i have yet to find a way to get my MSL for 4.4.2 sure to the get prop Commanche has been changed in this firmware... I have flashed through Odin to make my baseband an MDc baseband. .. now it's there a way for me to get my MSL for my 4.4.2 sph-l720?

You can use build prop or you can use MSL app from playstore.

Build prop? And msl app? Whos the vendor who developed the msl app thru the play store? Does the device need to be rooted? And you confirm It works on 4.4.2?
Can you link something for build prop please?

Yes this works. Just tried it on 4.4.2

it worked! ty

Easiest way I've found to get it, is to do a device swap on sprint.com if you have a spare device. It will give you the msl.

[Q] Mismatched builds and software/baseband!?

Im sorry if question has been asked but how do I fix this?
DL odin 1.85 is what I use, select boot loader update, and auto reboot, download this file in this thread--- >http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2357171 and place phone in download mode (power off phone, hold volume down+power button) select PDA in odin and select the file you downloaded earlier and hit start

Lol there's no problem with you having different names. Just means you have a different modem and kernel/build.

Roms do NOT come with modems. They have to be flashed separately or be done through Odin.
BTW your baseband says MDC not MF9 like you stated.

[Q] URGENT: Sprint to T-mobile or Metro PCS ?

Anyway i can Domestic Sim unlock or flash my SPH-L720 to T-Mobile or Metro PCS ?
I'm using 4.3 MK2 and can't seem to downgrade in order to sim unlock through the normal method
I would say to call sprint to get it unlocked but seems like you haven't paid your bill or have a bad ESN

I haven't found a downgrade method anywhere and the only way to achieve domestic unlock is through mdc modem.

I think you just have to install the MDC modem not the entire firmware. Go to the all sprint firmware post and install the mdc modem. Follow the unlocking steps and then you can go back to the MK2 modem after unlock.

What modem and Baseband are you currently on? If you open device manager do you see two ports for your phone?

As of now you can't downgrade the modem on mk2 or mja if you took an OTA update to get there. If you flashed your way there and kept mf9 you can downgrade easily.

[Q] kitkat root now wifi n hot spot not work? ?

I updated to kitkat today after I unrooted then I used odin v1.85 n the tar.md5 file for rooting the rooting went fine but everytime I try to kick in wifi or hot spot it says" your phones security has blocked an action..."???
Also my baseband is mk2 n my buildnumber is nae
Little more background info after updating I tried to put the nae hotspot mod into my framework n backed up my old ones by putting .bak n restarted the phone n the hotspot nor wifi worked so I removed the modded ones n put back the stock n tried that still didn't work n then unrooted n tried again n neither of the two work I can use any advice that is given Thanks
Sent from my SPH-L720 using xda app-developers app
Just wondering if you thought about flashing the hotspot mod instead of pushing the files yourself.
Sent from my SPH-L720 using Tapatalk
Yeah I did but at this point I just want to get my wifi working even without root cause it's not working currently n I'm unrooted n which number do we look at for the hotspot mod the build number or the other one
Sent from my SPH-L720 using xda app-developers app
You need to start from scratch, you say you updated to Kit Kat after unrooting?? The reason why your phone isn't working properly is your update didn't complete properly. You have mismatches in your software version and baseband. Did you update with the OTA file or did you install one of the semi custom roms from the development section. Anyway, the wifi problem is probably a mismatch between your baseband and your kernel. Sense your software is NAE and your baseband is MK2 I don't know which hotspot you should use. Straighten out your install first and then you should have working wifi and hotspot.
Well how do I start from scratch to be honest I used the the supersu unroot tool cause mine was stock but rooted but then I hit the install icon in my notification window n it started installing the update n it succeeded n it says I'm on kit kat but software and basband version are on mk2 n my build number is nae ?

Then the update failed. You could try to Odin the NAE modem files but that might not fix you. If it was me, I would try to Odin the stock mk2 file and see if it completes. If it fails, then your bootloader was upgraded to NAE and you won't be able to go stock. If it completes, then you should be fully mk2 again and you can try the ota and hopefully it succeeds this time.if it succeeds everything should show NAE.

"We are do I bet the stock mk2"? I hope you're asking where do you get stock mk2 tar file. If so its in the development section by random45

[Q] Isis Wallet no longer works after KitKat 4.4.2

I just upgraded my Verizon Note 3 from Android 4.3 MJE to Android 4.4 NC2 and I am no longer to use ISIS Mobile Payment.
Root Cloak is activated and properly cloaking ISIS and other apps.
When trying to activate ISIS, I get the error message that this device is not supported.
Has anyone else experienced this error? Does any one have a work around?
Any help would be appreciated. Thank you!
You have to do some build prop edits to get it properly working. I have it working on my note 3 with kk

After changing my build.prop file to the Android settings for 4.3, I was able to activate ISIS Wallet successfully. I was then able to restore my build.prop to the KitKat firmware build IDs.
Is there a fix if I went from 4.3 to the leaked 4.4.2 using Odin on my non-rooted Verizon Note 3? I've been using ISIS fine on 4.3, but now ISIS says my phone is not supported.

The only way you could get Isis to work in the scenario is by restoring a backup from Isis that was made on 4.3. Im not syre if you can without root though.

The instructions above are quite clear regarding which lines in build.prop you need to modify.

If that doesnt work, you can use safestrap to flash MDL modem and try the code method.
