Hey, I just got the moment, and i'm trying to get root access on it. Made some progress so far, you can see the screenshots and chat logs on http://sites.google.com/site/hackthemoment/ If anyone comes up with a good idea, let me know. |

Hey hokansoc,
A lot of us are definitely interested in obtaining root on the Moment so we can start actually bringing out the phone's full potential. Make sure and keep us updated on any progress you might have.

Will it be a combination of key presses most likely that will get it into root mode? I ported my number by myself with the tech support line and they gave me an access code that was ##4 numbers or so#, and I gained access to some type of management menu, but I pulled a total boner move and didnt write the number down or look too closesly at the screen, and the number wasnt saved in my redial list, the menue was accessed vial the dialpad. Is this something that may be useful, or not something that involves rooting? I know what to say to get the number from tech support again if I need to.

that number in the middle was your MSL its unique for every CDMA cell phone. its for activating your phone. CS will usually have no problem giving it to you. Its something that you would like to have, but has nothing to do with rooting the phone.

Not to mention the one that they gave you was a "one-time only" MSL... so it wouldn't work again anyways. It takes an "oops" on sprint's part for them to give you the true MSL that always works. Or working for sprint (which i do)

hmmm mine was always the same..altho when mine was initially activated it was at the sprint store. you can also get it by taking your number off the phone and putting it back on threw the online activtor.

Small stores will often give you the real one just to be helpful. Over the phone customer support won't. (technically the small stores aren't supposed to either.... we just do anyways)

I always get the msl for my phones from the online activation. They give you the one time code, but they also give you a secondary code in case you have problems. The secondary code is the actual msl for the phone.

I am super interested in rooting the moment. Hopefully it will be rooted in the next month or so.

Hi. Noob here. I want to root the moment too, but I'd be a tester more than a hacker.  |

Wanted to say I fully support the rooting process, and while I may not have the skills to make it happen, I will support and forum members or projects who do. I have some light programming skills, and am willing to be a tester.
Also, if someone starts a donation pot for the first to root, I would be first in line to toss in a few dollars.

Not sure if you all found this screen yet. ShutDown the moment. Power up with the all three buttons depressed (Start Call, Optical Touchpad, and End Call) This gave me a Self Test screen with about 21 options on it.
Keypad all the way to firmware update....
I really hope this helps!!!

The interesting thing about that test menu is that it calls the moment the "instinctQ". Lol. Maybe its an instinct after all.
