[Galaxy S III General] E:V:A:
Hi! Thanks for your effort, but your post risk confusing people and corrupting this thread, because the red application functions (as shown in your table) only show that your app is not able to use those codes, and not that they do not work with SGS3.

TO ALL:

DO not post new codes here, unless you have either:

a) personally tested the codes on a GT-I9300

b) found and documented references in the source code, that can be independently verified.

Thanks!

301279 not working

Hi sir,

i'm currently using dxlf3, before (on my previous phones) i have been using this menu (*#301279#) but with my galaxy s3 i cant us it anymore... is there like an alternative for this said option. because the country that i am in, 3g connection doesnt seem to be one of our best buds. so with the auto switch it mostly favor utms but whenever it's connected to hsdpa or hspa+ streaming has never been that good...

so i plea to anybody who can give us an update about the code... id greatly appreciate it. i'm not that techy i just learned if from a dude in the samsung service center in our country. they doesnt seem to know what the deal is with ics
[Galaxy S III General] Rob2222:
What you wanna do?

Disable HSPA but leave 3G on?

*#197328640# => DEBUG SCREEN => PHONE CONTROL => NAS CONTROL => RCC(HSPA)CONTROL => CHANGE REVISION

BR

Rob
[Galaxy S III General] popoylagmay:
Id like the other way around. I was able to get into the service mode. But still it kicks to 3g. I chose release 5. But when i see the select display revision, hsdpa "0" hsupa "0". The thing that i wanted to do is

Disable 3g(umts)

Leave open hsdpa

Thanks!
[Galaxy S III General] popoylagmay:
I cant make a screenshot using my daughters phone. On hers there is an option to turn on/off hsdpa and hsupa. Using 301279 i also used that code before with no luck. Here is screenshot of what always happens when i do it. And when you check the status of it. Both shows value of 0

I have also found on other samsung devices that u can run the same commands via shell by doing an

am start -n com.samsung.ServiceModeApp/.PlaceActivityorclasshere

it works a lot to access things that may be hidden and the dialer doesn't necessarily have access to due to permissions to run

[Galaxy S III General] tmckenn2:
jd-gui is a fantastic little program. i used it before but the problem is that the class names that is comes up with arent always clear as to what they do.

also newer sim cards have security features and cannot be cracked as easily. do some research on it as mine is a little old, but the process isnt cut and dry.

App to store and execute secret codes?

Hi all,

so far I used "SGS Info" app from my good old Galaxy S1 also on my S3.

But it seems, with Firmware XXBLG6 onwards, Samsung changed something in the dialer, so the app cannot successfully pass the codes on to the dialer anymore.

The same applies to another app I tested quickly (Hidden Features FREE ICS Edt.).

So my question is: Does anyone use an app (ideally where I can configure my own secret codes) to execute it in the dialer? And still working with latest firmwares?

Many thanks already!

[Galaxy S III General] andip71:
Many thanks. But also same issue with this app: Does not work anymore since XXBLG6.

I just downloaded and tried... no way.

But I will write an email to lidroid, maybe he knows more about the issue already.

Thanks

hi how to use code 2263 to open band section

i try *#2263#

it do not work
[Galaxy S III General] ascsa:
Unfortunately, Samsung did not change something by accident and all the apps are broken now, but samsung actively implemented a check if the code is applied via 3rd party app and block these 3rd party codes .....

...after introducing additional system app permissions for their secret codes within ICS, skipping some functions within the galaxy S3 firmware and now this new implemented check, I don´t know if there is an other hack to use these codes via an app on the GS3 ....you can still use these codes manually via dialer or adb (not tested by myself ), but it seems that samsung really wants to block all 3rd party apps ...THANKS SAMSUNG !
[Galaxy S III General] bakalap2:
Very useful thanks.
[Galaxy S III General] maschenazi:
Maybe is worth mentioning on the first page that the code *2767*3855# will wipe your phone instantly, NO warnings, no going back, no way to cancel. I certainly wish I knew that. :laugh:

No big deal, was waiting for a reason to root and install custom ROM anyway. Now that ARHD has come to S3... I guess that thanks are in order :highfive:

Hi,

Is it possible to unlock LGT i9300 EDGE? The default only supports GPRS. I am guessing it's a software lock.
[Galaxy S III General] dexter35803:
Um last time I checked I gave one reread my post
[Galaxy S III General] Rob2222:
There is no working example, just:

am start -n com.samsung.ServiceModeApp/.PlaceActivityorclasshere

So what is a working example for Activity or Class?

Does the . needs to be there?

I tried for example:

am start -n com.samsung.ServiceModeApp/2263

and

am start -n com.samsung.ServiceModeApp/.2263

does not work.

My problem is, I dont know what to enter for ".PlaceActivityorclasshere".

For that, one or two examples would be nice.

[Galaxy S III General] nex7er:
Is there a code to revert FW of camera?
[Galaxy S III General] jonttuv:
Do these work in all roms?
[Galaxy S III General] E:V:A:
If you are on a custom ROM, it is very unlikely that all or any of these codes work.

Most custom ROM have removed many system applications and disabled many debug options to conserve memory and increase speed. In addition they often break the application(s) used to detect service codes.
[Galaxy S III General] ygvuhb:
so there is no direct way to enter

*#2263# (RF Band Selection)?
[Galaxy S III General] Edwrib:
Use the code to testing, go to phone info, menu, baseband.
[Galaxy S III General] dexter35803:
That would work if 2263 was the actual name of the activity use the android manifest to get a list of activities and put those with the am start -n com.samsung.ServiceModeApp/.Activitygoeshere

the . is VERY important without it they wont start
[Galaxy S III General] Narseo:
Hi guys. Very useful information.

Do you know if there is any way of accessing the codes programmatically?

I'd like to be able to have some RIL information on a log in order to check the network performance of my app. I looked at Samsungservice.apk smali code to see how this data is obtained in order to pipe it somewhere else but I couldn't get anything clear from that.
[Galaxy S III General] Rob2222:
am start -n com.samsung.ServiceModeApp/.ServiceModeApp

*#*#4636#*#* is not working on Rogers SG III (i747w).

[Galaxy S III General] E:V:A:
On some mobiles you may need to enable the hidden menu before being able to access it with the "menu-code".

For example, for the Verizon SGS3 (GT-I535) you have to:

1. Open the keypad and dial [B]*#22745927[/B]
2. Enable hidden menu
3. Go back to the keypad and dial [B]*#7284#[/B]
4. Click Qualcomm USB Settings
5. Select RMNET + DM + MODEM and click ok
6. On your computer, open up Device Manager
...

And for the Sprint SGS3 we have some dependencies on the ROMs/firmware used as show in the thread:

[HOW-TO] Enable USB Diag Mode in AOSP

Also please:

If you post new codes, REMEMBER to specify what model (and firmware) it applies to.
[Galaxy S III General] pah8000:
Thank you

Hi there, I cannot open the test hardware screen. After i key in the last code of *#0*#, it erase itself and nothing happen. So, i cannot enter the test application
[Galaxy S III General] joederp:
For the Samsung dialer, it just recognizes secret codes and launches the app. In this case *#0*# launches Lcdtest.apk. So if you don't have a stock ICS or JB, then the dialer won't do anything with that code, it is just a shortcut to a test.apk in /system/app

please add tag USSD for easier finding. ty :good:

.vcf phone book

on the SGY, I simply put plenty of USSD code into da fonebook ('contacts'). you can't dial them mostly. but if you type 3 digits such as *#* you get prompted for the fonebook entries, then it works like a charm.

no need for an USSD app on Galaxy Y. I posted a .vcf in SGY section, tag 'USSD'

just bluetooth them and you're there.

great post! thanks mate ;)
[Galaxy S III General] chefp:
I never could figure out what the "SendData" Java code referred to. Maybe it's within the ServiceModeApp source. Anyway, sending the broadcast with the "am" command requires root, and the equivalent code in Java is:

Intent intent = new Intent("android.provider.Telephony.SECRET_CODE");
intent.setData(Uri.parse("android_secret_code://1111"));
sendBroadcast(intent);

The app needs system (aka root) privileges so a normal app doesn't have a chance of calling this. I've used the RootTools library to give an app root privileges.

I normally don't beg for Thanks but I spent hours banging my head working this out. If this saves you some time spread the Thanks button love ;)

You can use Shortcut Master app to get a FULL list of ALL secret codes in your device. And you can also get all of codes WORKED.

Install Shortcut Master --> 'Secret Code Explorer' menu --> tap on the code --> Select 'Launch 0' to launch the code.

P.S.: This app requires ROOT permission to launch the codes.

Hi I have tried looking into galaxy core prime(g361h) apk, but can't find the codes coz they must've hidden them further.

I suspect in string resource files, I used apkstudio to decompile.

Please help out if you can.

Thanks in advance.
[Galaxy S III General] billa:
The easiest way to find all the codes available on your Samsung phone (old and new) is via the Shortcut Master.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.vndnguyen.shortcutmaster.lite

After you install the app, tap Menu > Secret Code Explorer

Keep in mind that not all codes will run without root, and starting with Android v7.x.x code access even through root is blocked by Samsung, including anything sent to the modem RIL through ADB.

adb shell am broadcast -a android.provider.Telephony.SECRET_CODE -d android_secret_code://0011

OR if rooted

adb shell su -c am broadcast -a android.provider.Telephony.SECRET_CODE -d android_secret_code://0011

First, I decompiled the APK.

Then I just changed a text in "values/strings.xml" and then I placed "resources.arsc" from the original APK into the decompiled folder and compiled the APK.

After which, I signed the APK and transfered it to my phone and when I try to install it, I get "There is a problem parsing the package."
