Does not work. I've already tried once. That code trigger FactoryTest.apk which resets the device. The only thing to bug does is insert that code in dialer from any app. But it shouldn't trigger automatically. It's like auto-calling. AOSP ROMs are immune to that.

If HTC/Sony/Motorola also have this bug, it's because they have that command. CM does not have, so not possible. That code is mostly manufacture feature, the Galaxy Nexus with stock ICS/JB or CM9/CM10 is safe also.

The change in CM10 to fix that ussd bug is only to don't trigger ussd codes automatically, but is kinda useless, because cm10 does not have this bug.

It's a know issue, but there's a way to change it. Just make a thread search about it.
[Galaxy S II General] rakeshishere:
OGG format ring tones will repeat whereas MP3 wouldn't. I posted a solution long ago for this in same thread.
[Galaxy S II General] Honzze:
Just because it does not work for you, it doesn't mean it doesn't work for others.

I've tested two devices with cyanogenmod 9, galaxy ace and galaxy S2, and both where affected.

It is an android vulnerability, it has been fixed in android source. Cyanogenmod team itself told that. Additionally you might be interested in this: http://m.h-online.com/security/news...es-USSD-calls-can-kill-SIM-cards-1719230.html
[Galaxy S II General] :
This one is different. You tested the imei dialog. But did you test the actually wipe code? I guess no. Because if you did, it wouldn't work.
[Galaxy S II General] petedaddi:
I'm coming from cm10 cos of the ril and memory leak problems. As the latest nightly got any of these or should I go for stable version?
[Galaxy S II General] tricky-tricky:
Thanks for testing and reporting
[Galaxy S II General] rakeshishere:
The factory reset or factory wipe code works only on Samsung roms and not cm9 since it's a aosp based rom

I don't worry since I don't click random links on websites or open weird websites which I haven't even heard of.
[Galaxy S II General] :
Thank you, finally you admited it. :)
[Galaxy S II General] ccrows:
For those that are concerned about any "wipe issues" or any other "hacks", remember to backup and backup often. Keep a backup copy of your phone on your PC as well. No device will ever "Be totally secure".

As already stated, "stay away from unwanted websites" and IMO deny unwanted permissions in your Apps while you are at it too.

Just your common sense reminder tip for the day... ;)
[Galaxy S II General] rakeshishere:
When did I ever deny it?? USSD bug leads to factory wipe on a samsung rom and not on cm9 but ussd bug still exists even on cm9 as well.

That's what my previous post was talking about. English isn't my first language so I rather stfu and stop discussing any further on this.
[Galaxy S II General] pr4wn3r:
Just use the latest nightly!and if you got RIL problems,just try another modem!

CM9
[Galaxy S II General] :
I admit CM9 may have this ussd bug. But the wipe command does not exist, so that full wipe "bug" isn't present on CM9.

It have the ussd bug, but no one should worry about it, since it will never wipe the phone by this.

My Friend! Long press back button but no work! :confused:

* oh my god! I just figured out why it did not work ... I have modified the lighting time of soft buttons, from 3 seconds to 1 second, the key to kill applications did not work! leaving it as stock in 3 seconds, it works perfectly! thanks anyway for the info .. anyway, I found a bug!
[Galaxy S II General] tricky-tricky:
Well we don't really know how many of these codes there are and what they all do... Also, if anyone can run a ussd code that shows your IMEI maybe someone else can add a hack to read it (but that may be just me being paranoid... or not)... From all the security issues you hear, this one is the worse in my opinion only because it is so simple that we all understand how it works and anyone can exploit it by just sending a link...

I recently installed the stable cm9. I found out that there is not the digital clock widget but just the analog one. I'd like a widget like there is in resurrection remix for example,which is exactly like the analog one but digital,with alarm access by pressing on it. Where can i find it?

Prepaid menu disabling acces to keys

I'm pretty sure this must have been answered before, but I can't find it. Since I'm on holiday abroad in Australia I bought a Telstra prepaid simcard. When trying to charge it using #100# I'm faced with a 1, 2, 3,... etc. menu that appears *over* my regular dialer. How on earth can I enter the menu choices to charge the prepaid sim through my phone?

Thanks,

I'm losing a lot of battery when I'm connected to data

Is there a way to make my device go to 2g when screen is off after a certain amount of time like AOKP does?

Thanks!
[Galaxy S II General] Aroldoa:
maybe the problem is not your connection, but the apps that use it.

You have to see in batery status what is consuming it.

BTW, I don't think that have any configuration to keep the connection for an amount of time.
[Galaxy S II General] GalaxyGusta:
yea i know what consuming it.. data

yesterday i was traveling alot in trains and such and my connection must have been consumed alot of battery because it was constantly connecting to different cell towers

but the question is if you can make the phone use 2g when screen is off after a certain amout of time, like when i turn of the screen it will count 40 seconds and than switch to 2g and when i wake it up it will go back to normal (h+/3G)
[Galaxy S II General] deimdos:
Well actually data doesn't use itself just for fun :). I'd look for the app(s) consuming that data ;).

I didn't search but I'm pretty sure that has to be an app to switch to 2G while screen is off

Cheers
[Galaxy S II General] brickhead92:
I'm using Profiles - home-Insecure, Work-Secure, others etc. I've noticed if the phone has been turned off while Insecure, when it boots the phone remains Insecure. This to me seems kind of counter intuitive. For if a pin or pattern has been set on the phone, upon boot it should require you to unlock it before the insecure lock screen kicks in. This might just be me though?
[Galaxy S II General] Honzze:
Actually, the latest version also features an advanced pack, including the clock widget!
[Galaxy S II General] testnet:
Try NoBars app on google play store.

It will turn off your cellular radio whenever your phone has no signal. It can be set to check every few minutes or once per hour.
[Galaxy S II General] gorillaCF:
just a quick check if anyone encounters this problem that i encountered, and i think there are no technical helps to it.

but anyone have total zero reception/connectivity when they are outside of their country? i meant roaming.

i'm from singapore, travelled to malaysia, and it is showing a X with no connectivity at all. i've checked with my singapore mobile operator and they confirmed that my auto roaming services are activated, and that there are no outage of roaming services in malaysia.

i'm totally lost now on what actually happened, trying to figure out on how to avoid this as i travel frequently. i'm using the 0930 built of cm9.
[Galaxy S II General] deimdos:
Did you check if roaming was enabled in network settings? Keep in mind that there are 2 roaming options, national roaming and roaming (international).

[Galaxy S II General] n.pandya:
I have been using CM9 Stable on my GT-I9100. There are 3 main issues which I face frequently. Grateful if anyone could suggest a solution.

1. I randomly lose my mobile signal at least once a day. Usually happens when the phone is idle for some time but has happened between calls also a couple of times. I am forced to reboot the phone each time this happens to get the signal back. My current baseband version is XXLPX. I used the getRIL app suggested by some members and updated the modern but the problem still persists.

2. The stock messaging app is really bad and crashes once a day at least. Is there any way it can be completely replaced with another messaging app. I have obviously tried using another messaging app but getting multiple notifications is irritating.

3. Temple Run crashes frequently and all the progress is lost. (I have heard that this problem is usually found in rooted phones).

I am using this forum for the first time and could not find an answer to the above queries while going through past posts. If my questions have been answered earlier I will be really grateful if someone could point me to the relevant posts.
[Galaxy S II General] praveenthivari:
1) Change the modem.

2) Clean installation should solve that.

3) Temple run has problems with cm. May be bcoz cm doesn't have complete access to closed source graphic drivers. It does work well on ROOTED stock rooms.
[Galaxy S II General] n.pandya:
I have changed the modem a couple of times, the problem still persists. Any suggested modem?
[Galaxy S II General] Honzze:
That mainly depends on your carrier/location. There's no universal RIL/modem for all around the world. For me the XXLPS combo works well. Might be completely different for you...
[Galaxy S II General] jcasares:
I have a similar issue. I'm yet to find a stable modem and the one that uses the Samsung ROM has the same issues with CM9.

Yes, the stock messaging is not really nice but it doesn't crash for me. Maybe do a clear data and check.

I also have problems with Amazing Alex that not only crashes but the phone as well. I have to power it down. :(
[Galaxy S II General] praveenthivari:
For me GETRIL APP from playstore solved, the problem. It said I had miss matched RIL. I followed it's suggestion and didn't have any RIL crash.

I had the same issue it was driving me up the wall. I was almost at the point of going back to Stock entirely when I tried BVLP7.

I found I needed to run each modem for at least 2-3 days to let the phone settle down as well.

What's the real diferente between kernel siyah and he base kernel from cyanogenmod? I ask this because i found much more stable the cyanogenmod compare to siyah or dorimanx. The basic features work much better compared to those two kernels.

Noticed that benchmark score for i/o reading is much lower wich makes on quadrant score go way down (with cyanogenmod kernel compared to others but it is just that) .

Bln works better on cyanogenmod kernel also. On dorimanx and siyah is blinking sometimes even if you configure them not to.

Battery life i find it better on siyah or dorimanx.

Quality of color display is much better on cyanogenmod compared to those two kernels. With a much better White in my opinion and not over saturated.

Auto brightness works great with cyanogenmod and dorimanx. But siyah seems to lack Here, since sometimes stops working.

Cool phone, stressing cpu with task can be a pain in the Ass when becomes Hot. I have found that the most cool again is cyanogenmod. Then is siyah and then dorimanx.

So i am basing this only from experience. What is your opinion and whats the real diference if you can help out? Thanks :)
