Sprint Cell Phone customization

I just got a Sprint Samsung Rant cell phone for free. It is a big bulky thing but has a nice keyboard.

I got the MSL service code, copied the primary NAI to the tethered NAI using bitpm and QPST, and other fun stuff I'm not going to explain in detail. If you enter ##DATA# as phone number you can get at a lot of extra settings. Also going into settings, display, press # has more settings but you need your MSL.

So anyways.. I want to customize the user interface. Using ##DATA# I can disable XUI making the One-Click Carousel go away. That leaves the phone in safe mode. It seems to be fully functional and faster in safe mode. Safe mode is probably how the phone manufacturer wanted the phone to work. so now we have One-Click or Safe Mode.

I found that ##BREW# brings up a whole different user interface. Now we have Brew also as a UI.

I see in ##DATA# an XUI URL and XUI FEED URL. They are set to tileservice.sprint.com/xui/live and feedservice.sprint.com. I've been searching google and I can't find anything about those settings or those urls! Has no one else wanted to change the tiles available in the One-Click interface? That can't be! Maybe sprint is killing off everyone mentioning it. I'll start saying my goodbyes soon.

Those urls are not accessable from my computer's browser. They don't seem to work from the default browser, Bolt, or Opera Mini 3 either. Maybe I will try some tests while using the phone as a modem (tethered). Maybe those services aren't on port 80.

Later I'll have to point those urls at my hosting server and use a packet sniffer to see what the phone sends. Maybe I will find some neat ways to customize the One-Click XUI.
