How To Enter Sprint Hash Codes & Secret Menu Dial Codes
Some of these hash codes work with not only Sprint and Sprint MVNOs but also other CDMA carriers like Verizon Wireless. None of these dial codes work with every device.
- Just open the phone dialer (as if you are going to place a call) and dial ##DIALCode# or *#*#DIALCode#*#*.
- You don’t need to press dial after the last # is entered for ##DIALCode# (or * in case of *#*#NUM#*#*) from the dial codes listed in the table below.
A Few Things To Keep In Mind
- A custom dialer might make these codes not work.
- If you have installed a custom ROM these codes might not work.
- If you are using AOSP dialer, *#*#DIALCode#*#* might work.
- All the codes will not work for all the phones.
- Dial code compatibility depends upon your phone model.
- Only some of these hash codes or dial codes will work for your phone.
- These dial codes most likely not work in other CDMA phones (Verizon).

| ##(MSLCODE)# | MSL CODE | ##(MSLCODE)# | YES | Use your specific (six-digit MSL/SPC code) to program your phone manually. Many Sprint MVNOs allow you to view your MSL Code from in your account but you may need to contact your carrier if the MSL Code isn’t listed. MSL is the acronym for Master Subsidy Lock. The MSL Code is different for each device. |
| ##000000# | 000000 | ##000000# | YES | It has been noted that if normal programming didn’t work using the MSL Code, ##000000# instead of the Sprint MSL may work in rare instances. |
