[Samsung Infuse 4G] k-semler:
Go to a T-Mobile store and pick up a prepaid SIM with 10 miniutes of air time. Power down your phone, and insert the SIM card. Power back on your phone, and you should be prompted for an unlock code. Your phone will be permenantly unlocked after entering the code and pressing enter.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Gilligan87:
Thanks but as I've said I've already tried the standard method.

It seems most likely that its a hardware issue; the phone isn't even reading AT&T Sims, so it might be a lost cause at this point.

Just downloaded an update package for my HTC One X via the software update page in settings, im guessing this is Jelly Bean, as it's updating.

More info coming as i update :)

It tells you what it is on the update notification. Before you install it, grab a logcat and C&P the URL.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] motioncoding:
Hello,

my problem is that my Rockchip rk3066 SDK is shown as china mobile [produkt name] in Google Play and probably not only there.

This board has no cellular network capabilities so it is nonsense and furthermore it restricts some apps on Google Play. Furthermore Play seems to think that I am using this device from china (a lot Chinese soft porn apps - :p)

I already added

ro.carrier=wifi-only

to build.prop but this hasn't helped.

Do you have any ideas where I could change that?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Robobob1221:
check carrier alpha and numeric, are they China based?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] motioncoding:
How can I do that?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Robobob1221:
Its in the build.prop. look for the following if you have them. You might not have all of them:

ro.com.google.clientidbase=
ro.com.google.clientidbase.yt=
ro.com.google.clientidbase.am=
ro.com.google.clientidbase.vs=
ro.com.google.clientidbase.gmm=
ro.com.google.clientidbase.ms=
android.os.product.brand=

ro.cdma.home.operator.numeric=
ro.cdma.home.operator.alpha=
ro.product.brand=
ro.product.locale.language=
ro.build.description=
ro.build.fingerprint=

These are blank here but you should have a value after the =. Change out these values with values from your carrier, region.

This should fix your market not registering in your locale.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] motioncoding:
Ok but this device has no mobile connection so should I leave this values empty? e.g. The MK802 Android Stick doesn't show any carrier.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Robobob1221:
you got copies of of the build.props you can paste in a pm or something?

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Xynche:
I've been having an issue with my softkeys (settings, home, etc...). They will randomly press opening settings, going back and opening the recent apps. Usually it does a combination of all of them and the only way to fix it is to turn off the screen and turn it back on.

I first thought this was a rom problem and switched to a new one. This didn't help so I believe it has to do with hardware. I looked up online and people say that it is a screen or battery problem. So I flashed to stock ICS and brought it into sprint, the guy was nice and stuff but he said he couldn't do anything unless we could make it happen. It wouldn't do it, so he couldn't do anything about it.

I'm wondering if it actually is a software issue or something that I'd be able to fix myself. Has anyone had any problems like this? It's not too often but often enough to be annoying. Any help would be nice.

Thanks in advance
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] MiguelHogue:
I've heard pepper have issues with soft keys in low signal areas but never heard of that issue.. When you left the store did you have the problem on stock ics still

Well, I flashed back to Paranoid when I got back home and so far I've had no problems. I haven't been using my phone though, I'll have to see how this goes.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] pcmanager:
I have the issue of menus open and close in all apps and from home screen in low to no signal areas. Some times making the phone unusable. If I turn mobile data off seems to cure the random menu opening issue... Becomes 1/2 a phone... No data and 10 a month for... What oh ya high speeds data... Used to get 10 Meg download on 4G until a couple months ago.. Now only getting 700K, I think the Sprint tower near my house was stolen lol is that a word? FI27 is out, might help. My phone has been flagged for liquid damage so hard to find out if it's a hardware problem causing the menu issues. My upgrade isn't until May so I will make the most till then. NOTE 2? Little Rant in your thread OP... Sorry :)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Xynche:
I don't mind the rant :)

I think it may have something to do with signal however. I was at work today and I got a bunch of random presses again. There was a good sized storm and I only had a bar or two. I'm also still wondering if it is software but I cant even stand to use stock ICS to see if it happens, if I couldn't use custom roms I don't think I would even own an android phone.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] pcmanager:
I was at the gym last night... 1 to no bars, menus and soft keys started poping like crazy... Turned off mobile networks.. 3G data and not one more Phantom menu press... If I wasn't so lazy I would use a custom prl and roam control... Bet that would cure my low signal areas. I will test that theory soon.

I had same menu action when I Odin stock el29 GB, with all modems I flashed :(
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rudyp9:
I have use menu other Android devices my first phone was a Samsung moment, i rooted all my phones and i 've never had this problem, i even called Samsung and they say its sprints network not software or hardware, so i will take my phone to another store to see if i have better luck:D
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] EeyoreSyndrome:
I was experiencing the same problem on Gamer Mod. Even reflashed after fully wiping everything and still had it happening... was using apex launcher...but never happened to me before. Anyway wiped again and flashed back to blue kuban and its gone.

Shame because I really liked gamer mod.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Xynche:
I don't see how a network can cause an issue like this though.

Also, I've tried wiping and flashing multiple roms on everything from GB to JB and still the same thing.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] BluesRulez:
It is a low signal issue. The end. Only solution.. Get it replaced. My co worker had it. So I had first hand experience with it.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Xynche:
When I brought it in he said he can only do something if we could duplicate the problem. Should I call Sprints call center and see what they can do? Would they already know about the problem or are they going to pretend like they've never had an issue like it. Do I have to flash back to stock ICS or do they not care? Sorry about the questions, I'm just pretty new to having my own phone plan and my own problems and don't really know how to deal with them yet. :)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rudyp9:
You have to unroot the phone or they will say the rooting its causing this problem or even worse they will say it's big no no to root phones and they will invalidated your warranty, show them this video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xKG-iq4XezU so they get an idea what the problem is:mad:
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Bannjio:
That is really odd, hadn't heard of that before. I instantly thought hardware, but it sounds like it has been proven otherwise. Is your device under warranty? If so, could be worth the hassle of a replacement, otherwise sprint call center is pretty worthless in general. They will give you pre made responses and tell you they were not aware of any such issue unless you get someone who actually gives any kind of a crap haha. Good luck! Be sure to post any updates!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] pcmanager:
The only way to duplicate the problem everytime on my phone is to go to a low signal area. Ask the Sprint tech to go with you maybe buy them a cup of coffee and a donut.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Magnum_Enforcer:
Not sure if this will answer your question but a co-worker recently had to take his OG EVO in for service. They gave him a loaner phone, an EVO 3D.

My wife's E4GT had the same phantom soft key issue. It was recently replaced due to another unrelated issue and so far, no issues.

Very last question, I promise. Should I call Sprint or call Samsung directly? I'm most likely going to try and get it replaced this weekend. Hoping that everything goes well.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] xkmacx86:
Short of a sledge hammer or selling the phone is there any remedy?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jigwashere:
Phantom keys were crazy on my phone yesterday. I hadn't seen the problem very much in a week or so. I have no idea what was going on, but cleared dalvik cache and that seemed to help. No problems with it today. I wish I could figure out a correlation besides poor signal.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] pcmanager:
My phantom soft key pisses were wild tonight! I Used Roam control and set to roam only and it immediately stopped the menus from opening. I don't use a custom prl so I had no data. Usually when or happens I just turn off data, leaving me with half a phone. I'm going to learn how to install a custom prl so I will have data too. But I think once I have data and cell with Verizon tower the phantom presses will be back. Thanks Sprint.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] stonesaber:
I've had 5 or 6 E4GTs and I've had this on all but one of them. Some worse than others and they started after a while and not right out of the box. Some ROMs are worse than others and they've done it on bone stock as well. To get around it I've ran the Roms that have the on screen buttons and have disabled the hardware keys. Luckily I also have a photon so I can have a phone that works properly.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] pcmanager:
Yes I have seen this on two of the four that I have had. Your correct, one had the problem from the start and the other after a couple months.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] xkmacx86:
Well after 40 minutes with tech service and account services i was pretty much told to suck it up and deal with it out pay near $400 for the etf and purchase a new s3. Woooo!!!! Excessive roaming here i come. Anyone wanna buy a month old black s2?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Xynche:
So I got my phone back. The screen and touch pad has been replaced, and boy is my life so good. The problem continues, though not as evident. I'm done though, I'll just bend over as Sprint rips $95 out of my paycheck once a month.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] xkmacx86:
I don't want to come off presumptuous but is been a few hours since i took the phone completely apart and put it back together. Not one phantom menu problem. Tomorrow will be a true test of its operation.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] stonesaber:
I know the frustration of having this annoyance but it's obviously a Samsung issue, not Sprint. I honestly don't think anyone at Sprint has a clue as to how to fix this. I talked to two of my local Sprint store managers and although they're aware of the issue, they do not know exactly what causes it or how to repair it properly. On my latest eg4t, when I got it, it worked as it should. But after a while of flashing ROMs it started the phantom menu pop ups. So I odin'd back to stock rooted FI27 and after a few days it stopped. I have since went to AOKP and still no issues. I don't know why it stopped, but I know it's not because of going back to stock because I've tried everything including a factory reset from the security menu to get it to stop with no avail. I've had the issue on bone stock GB to bone stock ICS to JB and almost every ROM available across multiple phones.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] xkmacx86:
The phantom is back. Worked last night but today same old story
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jigwashere:
Sorry to hear that. I'm able to recreate the problem in certain places where I know 3G signal is weak. Other than that, I've found no pattern.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] xkmacx86:
I can duplicate the issue no problem and i was stoked to see it working the other night and part of the morning. Due to the nature of my work i drive all over and its ferrying to the point i can't contact or relay info to my office.

Guys we really need to push Samsung on this issue.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] celsius0010:
I took mine to the Sprint store in Rancho Cucamonga and they replaced the phone.. So no more phantom keys but now I have slow 4G..
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Gorguts:
I have had this on every incarnation of GSII software. I un rooted and went all the way back to the beginning. I used each rom version till the issue occured, then I let the phone update to the next ROM version and repeated the process. Every single unrooted upadte had the same issue and then every single Rooted ROM all ROMS for the ET4G were tried and the issue occurred.

Strange part is it came out of nowhere. I have had and have been flashing for an entire year without issue and one day all of a sudden... BOOM. I don't think it is as simple as the signal issue. I think it has to do with flashing as well. Unless this is happening to someone who has never rooted their device, I think something in the roms we flash trigger the issue which is related to signal.

Has anyone known anyone who has never rooted their device and has had the issue? By the way, the store gave me a brand new factory OEM screen and the issue still occurs.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cubanorafter:
I had this issue. I bought my SG2 sometime around March 2012, and had the soft key phantom menu until about 2 months ago.

This is completely stock, never rooted, and only happened when signal was crappy. I am not sure if it was the OTA ICS upgrade that fixed it or some other OTA update but it has been fine for about 2 months. I don't even want to type this for fear of it coming back to haunt me! :eek:

The only really modification I had done was install a few launcher .apks. Currently it is set to "launcher". My other choice is TWLauncher. Not sure if this has anything to do with anything......

ICS 4.0.4

Build FI27

Edit: Also, bought my wife SG2 last month, never had the issue... Stock ICS...

Ooookay..

Go to system/usr/keylayout

Re boot and let meet know.

Just curious as to why you want to do this so bad? "

# comment out menu and search keys. Save file and Set permissions.

Then head over to the play store and get Button Savior. I paid for the advanced features and am very happy. Have to keep the phone until may 2013, sprint claims liquid damage so no replacement.

Button Savior on screen hidden pop up menu buttons works great and no more phantom presses menu or search pop ups ever again! :)

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] DirtyDavis:
I too have had this problem but for me I am almost positive it was rom related. I am on a different one almost every day so I cant recall which one but I remember on a earlier release the menu would randomly press itself. Then the next update after that the menu button wouldn't even work. I flashed to the latest codename jb at the time and it went away and has stayed away since.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Xynche:
I thought I'd try a different rom. I switched from Paranoid Android to MIUI, I get the problem still but with the search button instead of the menu. It's a great rom, but the search is more inconvenient than the menu button. I'm going to keep trying different roms until I find one that is better than another, seeing as they seem to have a different effect of this issue.

I also wrote an angry email to Samsung. I got a generic response that told me to talk to tech support even though they already repaired my phone. I hate these corporations.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Raistlin1:
This phantom key issue is driving me mad, was happening on FI03 rooted with FI27 modem and FI27 kernel repack by agat. I have been running the FK09 JB leak and it is happening even more now than it did on ICS.

Happening while using the phone for data/emails/text and it happens while on a phone call and you hear touch tones like crazy. Forget about even trying to make a call where you have to use the keypad to enter numbers....
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] pcmanager:
If you are still under warranty try and have sprint replace the phone. when the phone is in a low signal area the antenna sends out a stronger RF signal causing the phantom presses of the keys. my warranty has expired so I'm using the bandaid fixes posted above. the phone is actually quite usable now and I am enjoying it again.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jigwashere:
While I can't say that weak 3G radio signal is the cause, I can say that the ONLY time I experience this issue is when the signal is weak. I'm currently on Lightweight 0.4 and not seeing this issue as frequently. Sometimes I can reduce or temporarily eliminate the phantom menu by clearing memory. Other times, I turn off 3G or go into Airplane mode. I also have very poor battery life when in weak 3G coverage. Ordinarily, I can get 20+ hours, but at work my signal strength is weak. Turning off 3G is the only thing that has helped.

Just got a brand spanking new Epic Touch for this issue.. I went to the store in Rancho Cucamonga and said the menu key presses on it's own when I have low signal. They tech knew exactly what I was talking about. He took it for an hour then ordered another one. I have zero issues with the new one. Before a stoplight by my house would have my phone going crazy because I was between towers, now I have zero phantom key issues..

If your phone does it take it in it's a defect my OG Epic did it too.. Until I got a new one..
