Service Menu? - Samsung Gear S2

Hello,
After getting my Gear S2 back from Samsung service (I tried to wash it via the faucet water stream, it entered an infinite reboot cycle and then died - IP68 compatible huh?) I turned it on and it appeared to enter some sort of Service Menu. I haven't left this menu (nor do I know how, except maybe a factory reset?), but I would like to know how I could reenter it if I wished to, in the future. Googling for this yielded no results, and that is shocking. I wanted to post an image showing this menu, but I'm not allowed to since I've got less than 10 posts.
Thanks.

Should be able to just upload it to a photo service, like imgur and just pasting the link as text, if you wish to share it. Interested in what it looks like.

Hi. Looking for this menu in the web, i found the method for the Gear 2, and *i think* is the same. I tried succesfully in my Gear S2.
Just go to the dialer and press: *#0*#
and you can enter to a menu titled TESTMODE
You can exit from this menu pressing twice in the upper button.
Greetings.

Pressing the upper button twice does nothing. In fact, I'm unable to exit this mode even with a restart or a factory reset (via Gear Info -> Reset). Here's the link, delete the spaces.

I brought it back to the service and apparently they forgot to flash it. That was a default service Tizen that ships from the factory. It contains tests and it's supposed to be overwritten once the mobo is replaced.

Thanks for the info about the Test Mode. The Sensor screen was fun.

Good!. I tried to find this menu but i only guessed that is for developer options or something like that (because a lot of tizen icons).
Also i tried some codes for Samsung devices and found some of them work in my Gear S2 (use at your own risk):
*#06# Serial Number
*#0*# LCD Test Menu
*#1234# Version Info
*#12580*369# Main Version
*#0228# Battery Status
*#0*# General Test Mode
*#2663# Touch Firmware Version
*#0283# Audio Loopback Control
*#9900# Log Dump
*#34971539# Camera Firmware Update
*#7353# Self Test
Greetings

Did anyone noticed...
I find an easy way to input these codes; plus others that in the dialer doesn't work.
Go to Settings>> Gear info>> Device>> Software version (push 5 times the button) A system ui with a different dialer let you input codes- it's like when we try to get the developer options on android phone.
Hope it helped!

android codes

FYI These codes have been obtained by decoding various .apk files present in the phone firmware.
*#*#4636#*#*
This code can be used to get some interesting information about your phone and battery. It shows following 4 menus on screen:
Phone information
Battery information
Battery history
Usage statistics
*#*#7780#*#*
This code can be used for a factory data reset. It'll remove following things:
Google account settings stored in your phone
System and application data and settings
Downloaded applications
It'll NOT remove:
Current system software and bundled applications
SD card files e.g. photos, music files, etc.
PS: Once you give this code, you get a prompt screen asking you to click on "Reset phone" button. So you get a chance to cancel your operation.
*2767*3855#
Think before you give this code. This code is used for factory format. It'll remove all files and settings including the internal memory storage. It'll also reinstall the phone firmware.
PS: Once you give this code, there is no way to cancel the operation unless you remove the battery from the phone. So think twice before giving this code.
*#*#34971539#*#*
This code is used to get information about phone camera. It shows following 4 menus:
Update camera firmware in image (Don't try this option)
Update camera firmware in SD card
Get camera firmware version
Get firmware update count
WARNING: Never use the first option otherwise your phone camera will stop working and you'll need to take your phone to service center to reinstall camera firmware.
*#*#7594#*#*
This one is my favorite one. This code can be used to change the "End Call / Power" button action in your phone. Be default, if you long press the button, it shows a screen asking you to select any option from Silent mode, Airplane mode and Power off.
You can change this action using this code. You can enable direct power off on this button so you don't need to waste your time in selecting the option.
*#*#273283*255*663282*#*#*
This code opens a File copy screen where you can backup your media files e.g. Images, Sound, Video and Voice memo.
*#*#197328640#*#*
This code can be used to enter into Service mode. You can run various tests and change settings in the service mode.
WLAN, GPS and Bluetooth Test Codes:
*#*#232339#*#* OR *#*#526#*#* OR *#*#528#*#* - WLAN test (Use "Menu" button to start various tests)
*#*#232338#*#* - Shows WiFi MAC address
*#*#1472365#*#* - GPS test
*#*#1575#*#* - Another GPS test
*#*#232331#*#* - Bluetooth test
*#*#232337#*# - Shows Bluetooth device address
*#*#8255#*#*
This code can be used to launch GTalk Service Monitor.
Codes to get Firmware version information:
*#*#4986*2650468#*#* - PDA, Phone, H/W, RFCallDate
*#*#1234#*#* - PDA and Phone
*#*#1111#*#* - FTA SW Version
*#*#2222#*#* - FTA HW Version
*#*#44336#*#* - PDA, Phone, CSC, Build Time, Changelist number
Codes to launch various Factory Tests:
*#*#0283#*#* - Packet Loopback
*#*#0*#*#* - LCD test
*#*#0673#*#* OR *#*#0289#*#* - Melody test
*#*#0842#*#* - Device test (Vibration test and BackLight test)
*#*#2663#*#* - Touch screen version
*#*#2664#*#* - Touch screen test
*#*#0588#*#* - Proximity sensor test
*#*#3264#*#* - RAM version
NOTE: All above codes have been checked on Google Android phone Samsung Galaxy I7500 only but they should also work in other Google Android phones.
Atleast say thanks
Great list of codes thanks for sharing it.
thank you
but some codes not working!
You can also enter the following code while in the lockscreen to get to most of the above mentioned service pages:
Menu, Back, Back, Menu, Back, Menu, Menu, Back
Good set of information, thanks for the post. gonna try some now.
Thank you..
Thank you for the codes...
Thanks for the codes, I'm going to add them to my wiki.
thanks for sharing
Just tried these out, and it turns out that the earpiece can actually get pretty damn loud... so it is a software problem after all (in-call volume).

I have a rooted x10a from Rogers 024 firmware
Thanks for the list though!

...that's what I just said. All it does is test the speaker, it doesn't change any settings in the phone. All I said was that the speaker has the potential to have louder call volume.
About earpiece volume. This didn't work for me, but so far none of the codes are. Give it a try and let us know if it works for you.
Taken from the following website...
http://androidforums.com/1263586-post1.html
Earpiece volume to low? I'm talking about the earpiece speaker built into the phone, the part you hold to your ear. You can increase this volume beyond maximum factory setting. When you change this, please change it slowly, meaning 1 increment at a time, you don't want to blow your speakers out. Thank you to the user over at xda-developer forums who showed me how to do this. update: it seems if you do a reboot of your phone, the settings revert back to factory for this volume fix...working to try to figure out a way to lock in the new volume settings.
Okay, lets begin. Go to your dial pad. Dial in *#*#197328640#*#*
Next, tap your finger onto the following, in the following order:
[5] Audio
[1] Handset
[1] Volume
[1] SRS Speech RX Volume
next notice the following defaults that pop up.
[0]0_lvl:63
[1]1_lvl:68
[2]2_lvl:73
[3]3_lvl:78
[4]4_lvl:83
[5]5_lvl:88
This basically means, that your volume up and down keys have 5 clicks, starting from the lowest setting, and click your volume up 5 times, takes you through the sequence of volumes listed above. You can change each click to be a new volume setting. For me 1-4 are fine, I just wanted max volume, which is click number 5, to be something higher. The phone does not let you to put in half increments, meaning 88.5 is not possible. So you have to use 1 increments. Please please do this carefully, dont suddenly jump to 95, you could blow out your speaker possibly. So I tried just 1 increment above 88, went to 89, and perfect, much louder now! okay so this is how you do it:
Once you get the list above, do the following:
Click your finger on [5]5_lvl:88
Next, a screen pops up asking for input. On the bottom of your phone, tap the menu button, this is the button next to the little home button.
Next tap "key input"
Next tap 1 increment at a time, lets start off with 89 so where it says enter value, tap this, your keyboard pops up, type in 89
Next Tap your menu button again
Next Tap "end"
you are now finished, make a phone call and see how 89 works for you, when your volume is set to max

I tried this and the volume was much louder! the issue was it really stared to disort and sound sh#t on the piano spot. So the reason why the volume is so low is the dam speaker is ****! Increasing the volume will cause more distortion and make things worse. I be happy to live with this for the next few years till my contract is over...
let me see this...

Hi,
also these codes are not working for me, except the *#*#4636#*#*.
The quoted post is related to Samsung Phones (Vibrant) and this is most probably the reson why it doesn't work on SE X10.
However, does someone know another set of codes for X10? The Service Menu, entered by the Menu/Back combination, shows a list item "Service settings" but with "No Item" in the next menu level. Is there any known trick to unlock this settings? Maybe there could be a option to adjust in-call volume...
All the Best
Peter
EDIT: X10i, R2BA026 rooted
no not yet solution for speaker volume increase
no solution yet..
let me try to replace speaker on my x10i
i will try to put any other speaker from other sony to my x10i..
same for loudspeaker also..
replace the ringer for mp3 volume increase of phone
but let me try this and than i will post u all

Android Navigation bar

Hello,
Today i bought a Huawei P7 Telephone. The phone itself seems to work realy good but there are 2 anoying features i would like to fix.
As ive always had an samsung telephone im used to have my navigation keys below the display, after following an topic on this forum i managed it to make it disappear. Which is prety nice, so the display looks a bit bigger.
This was done by changing an registery setting, in the database of the phone (Hide_actionbar 1)
Now i come to the second point where i cant find an solution for.
I am used to have my return key on the right side and me menu button on the left side in the navigation bar, atleast all samsung phones have this as far as i know.
Huawei has the opposide, return key is left and menu key (or window key) is on the right.
Is there any posible option to change this?
So this is what i want:
i61.tinypic.com/kejjic.png
You need to put the http before the link, sinds i cant post external links yet because im new.

ButtonRemapper, Nandroidbackup?
Hello,
Thank you for your post, i think this should be the right way to make the change, i just dont fully understand how to do it.
First of all i downloaded some remap software (ButtonRemapper) and tried to change the settings.
For example the software i tried and the link you gave me tells me that 139 = menu / 158 = back
I tried to change 139 = back.
Every time i reboot my phone to achieve change, the settings seemed to be resetted and not working at al. What am i doing wrong?
Besides that every tutorial and forum i read tells me users should make a Nandroid backup.
Internet tells me, i need some kind of extra ROM for this for better recovery options (Programs for should be CWM or TWRP)
My question is, is this realy necessary. I mean i check my current boot menu of the phone, and it seems to have an default factory reset option on it? Is this not good enough?
For extra information:
-Yesterday i have rooted my telephone, atleast i used some software which told me my phone was rooted and i got an extra application called Kinguser.
I did this because i wanted the navigation menu to dissapear. So the root itself seems to be fine.

ok .. lets fix that
i'll write you a reply in less than 20 minutes
---------- Post added at 11:11 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:42 AM ----------
in this method we won't be using ButtonRemapper app
1 • download a root browser (root browser or es file explorer)
2 • navigate to /system/usr/keylayout
3 • you will find a file named (Generic.kl) open it
4 • scroll down to "key 139 MENU WAKE_DROPPED" and type BACK instead of MENU
5 • scroll down to "key 158 BACK WAKE_DROPPED" and type MENU instead of BACK
6 • save the file and exit it
7 • open the file called (sec_touchkey.kl) in the same directory
8 • then type MENU instead of BACK ,, and BACK instead of MENU
9 • save the file and restart your phone :laugh:
I've just tried that on my (gt-i9300 cyanogenmod11) and it's working .. i think it will work for you either
and for the second question :
even if your boot menu (aka recovery) offers a factory reset,, it doesn't help you at all !!
because a factory reset doesn't fix the system partition if something wrong happend
- so you should flash a custom recovery such as (CWM or TWRP as you said) and make a NANDROID backup > i prefer TWRP
and if you don't know how to do that i'll be pleased to help you

[FRP] ZTE Majesty Pro Z798BL FRP Bypass

[FRP] ZTE Majesty Pro Z798BL FRP Bypass
(Sorry for the poor write up, it's basically notes from when I did this model quickly. If I get free time I will clean these steps up some so they are more clear and also get ahold of the handset and post additional methods/steps.)
There are multiple ways to do this bypass - here are just a few i came across freestyling. I'll document the others when i get time to lock up one of these phones again (it's a clients so dont have long with it)
1. talkback settings - This was already enabled for me and the chick that did it said she pressed home 3 times quick like on a iPhone. Not sure if that worked or not (i think shes mistaken). I didn't have time to go back and check. The manual and other info out there says to place two fingers on the screen and wait xx amount of seconds. Then talkback would be enabled. Well I have had this handset a handful of times since before this tutorial and i could NEVER get it into Accessibility.. Talkback enabled .. anything. So if someone knows the first step for sure then please post and i'll edit step.
2. help / about. search voice, click on subscribe out pops u to youtube
hit share and a: goto bluetooth and select device / pair mouthpiece or b: goto gmail and enter a email address hotmail or yahoo
3a: turn device off then back on and click till it beeps, say ok google next - enter search string settings hit enter.. goto the 3 lines on the left for settings, click settings and enable in apps boxes, also you could enable the bluetooth settings too but the most importabt thing here is the cards settings. enable these, next search for stock android and launch it. open settings and enable unknown sources, next open google chrome from the apps, search for sidebar apk, install next add these apps (i add all of them incase i need to get back somewhere.. not all are needed though) I add chrome, google, file manager, settings and stock android. next go back to settings then to apps and disable setup wizard and google account manager
3b: goto 3 dots - ? i forget this one so ignore until i remember. lol
3c: goto dialer
4. download dpc test manager 4.0.5 ? run this select device manager hit next then open, lastly goto developer settings oem unlock and usb debugging. goto backup/reset and reset phone. done
3d: (haven't finished) you need to put the phone into "Engineering Mode" first, by dialling *ZTE*OPENEM# (*983*673636#) -- this action will be confirmed by a quick pop-up. To close this mode, dial *ZTE*CLOSEEM# (*983*2567336#) -- this then prompts whether you want to do a Factory Reset, which you do not have to do (you can simply Back away from this screen).
(dont close mode)
go back to dialer and type *983*87274# USBSI USB Switch Test
enable mdm(modem)
-goto cmd, type adb shell content insert --uri content://settings/secure --bind name:s:user_setup_complete --bind value:s:1 (don't remember the outcome)
reboot?
3e: Open uni android tools (if you've got it) and navigate to > UNTESTED

It was very simple for me. For my Z798BL majesty pro i just held down two fingers on open screen till AccessibilityMode came on then swiped my finger from top left down to bottom right(an L shape) across the screen. That opened a menu so I tapped on TalkBack Options (to disable the TalkBack after the TalkBackOptions opened I held down the volume up and volume down Keys till it was disabled) then I scroll down to Help&Feedback clicked on Switch Access Mode question then scroll down to & tapped on the blue words "Turning on Bluetooth" then scroll all the way down to the bottom of that screen to "WasThisArticleHelpful" Yes or No? Tapped on NO, then I typed in anything in the box highlighted it and click on Assist that took me to the Google app then I typed in Chrome because it wouldn't let me download anything from the Google app so I went to the Chrome app then typed in "Test DPC 5.0.4 apk" then I downloaded the Test DCP APK then follow the instructions to install it including update phone's permissions to install unknown source. Clicked on setup new Divice Owner and followed those options til I was done(think just one or two more screens to click on "yes or continue" wasn't hard to figure out from there) when I was done with all that I tapped Back to the Google app typed in Settings clicked on phone settings scroll down to Backup&Reset clicked on reset device then erase everything then turned off my phone and restarted it. And that was it!

Google 2FA Recovery, black Screen. I can unlock S6 with keyboard. How activate ADB?

Hello,
I have a Samsung S6 with android 7.0 running on it. (latest stock firmware) The screen got cracked this week and the digitizer and OLED are not working anymore.
I've got some 2 FA keys in google authenticator that i did not backup. Now i know that i have to keep the QR code safely... but that is too late in this case. I don't want to buy a new screen...
I did manage to get a full backup of my phone by attaching a keyboard with an OTG cable. but this will not recover the 2FA keys in Google Authenticator.
How you can unlock your phone with a keyboard:
1. attach a keyboard with an OTG cable.
2. press the 'esc' button' and 'backspace' button
3. insert your password and press enter. You should hear the unlock sound. (you can unlock with the fingerpint from now on, if it was set)
I did activate developer options before but i disabled it when i'm not using it. So i have to activate it again.
I think i can enable Developer mode blindly by following these steps. The phone needs to be unlocked.
1. typ one letter. This will bring up google search. press backspace and delete (just to be sure it is blank). Now type 'Settings'
2. Press the down key once
3. Press enter
4. press the down key for 10 seconds (this should focus the item on the last option in the list, which is 'developer mode' )
5. press enter
6. press up once
7. press right once
8. enter
developer options should now be enabled.not sure how i can check this tho. I checked if my computer can find my phone. I can access the internal memory because the phone is unlocked.
i asume developer options is enabled... The next step is re-activating debugging mode in order to mirror the screen. But 'adb devices' does not show any device yet. This means 'debugging mode' is still deactivated.
So i'm trying to enable 'Debugging mode' within the 'developer options'.
I searched on youtube to see how the menu looks like in Android 7 on a S6 so i can figure out how many keys i need to press in order to re-activate USB debugging. But i seem to be stuck on this step.
My question: can somebody make screenshots or a video from a samsung S6 (with android 7.0) device with a keyboard attached that shows how many key presses are needed to activate USB debugging?
When i'm in the developer options menu i think i have to press 9 times down, hit enter, then press the right key once and then hit enter again.
Can someone confirm that this is correct?
The RSA keys for my pc were already accepted previously. so that should not be an issue. unless i hit the 'revoke keys' options by accident... (i hope not!)
if anyone knows an other way to activate USB debugging without erasing the whole phone, please tell me. I need access to my 2FA keys. :crying:
edit:
i'm not sure if the steps to enable Developer mode are working. I'm reproducing the steps on an old S5 phone. I now realize that there are internet suggestions when typing "Settings' on the S5 model. I need to press 4x down then enter. hmmm... These suggestions only pops up when wifi is enabled. I can ping my S6 phone. So WiFi is enabled on my broken s6.

It would be awesome if someone can record a video that shows me (and potentially others) how to install and run 'SideSync' through keystrokes. on an S6 with android 7.0. SideSync can then mirror and control the screen on a pc..
I'm going to try this blindly for now... fingers crossed
edit2: it seems that SideSync needs a code that is shown on the S6 screen. damn it. Searching for other solutions...
Kind Regards,

How To Guide Diagnostics and Calibration Menu

Hello everyone,
I just wanted to make a quick post on how to access the diagnostics menu and how to calibrate some of the sensors. It is the same as other Galaxy devices:
1. Go to the phone dialer on the watch and dial *#0*# (hold "7" to dial "*" and "9" to dial "#")
2. This will bring up the diagnostics menu. Scroll down and tap on "Sensor."
3. From here you can calibrate various sensors by tapping the "Selftest" button for each corresponding sensor.
*Make sure your watch is on a flat surface and is perfectly still while calibrating.*
4. To go back/exit the menu, swipe right.
I know it's sort of old news for other Galaxy devices, but I hope that helps.
Cheers!
