[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] -sandro-:
Hey I found this interesting comment from a user about S-Cover not working anymore and it might be connected to servicemode as well. But as I told you I was able to open servicemode without passing though the dialer (but via service mode app) so maybe we actually miss some particular files that can leave the phone app alone.

Nope, but I don't know how much control Samsung has over that. The reason it doesn't work anymore is because, in the 4.2.2 and 4.3 builds, stock Android still used the regular open-source dialer found in AOSP. As of KitKat, Google has replaced the AOSP dialer in retail builds with its own closed-source Google Dialer. The closed-source version can't be modified to incorporate that S-View call functionality, thus why it no longer works. Annoying, yes, but not at all surprising.

I'd be willing to bet that eventually, Google might write in some kind of hook that 3rd parties can use to gain functionality upon receiving calls, but who knows. It's Google. They never tell us anything.

good news! I did a fresh install cause I was having problems with other apps and I tried to reflash just for furn that zip I posted. Now I can access service mode regularly and I get no more phone app FCs. Just like 4.3, you can't access it through the dialer for the reasons posted above, but just with external apps like service mode. All good :D

I'm trying if it works also on ART as I was using dalvik, then phone will probably FC

Update: OK so the problem is ART that shows those phone FCs, but is this app even used now? Isn't phone now google dialer?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Goliath27:
I'm not the best at figuring out how and what to do so far. Do you mind making a step by step for me to follow to enter the service mode?

I'm on 4.4.2 as well and I originally did it before on a TW rom, using the phoneutil.apk. But that doesn't work on here any more and no codes seem to work for me.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] -sandro-:
are you using the TW KitKat leak or a GE ROM?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Goliath27:
GE :-\
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] -sandro-:
you need to flash the file i attached in the previous posts and then use an app to access the service mode manually (Samsung service mode - not free) if it doesn't work with your apk. Remember don't use it with ART or it will not work
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Goliath27:
Didn't you say previously that it caused force closes? I don't think that is an ideal trade off, I would rather not lol
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] toastido:
Ok, so I took the zip from -sandro-, and extracted ONLY the /system/app apk's. Backed up the matchine ones in my 4.4.2 KK on my i9505g, and then wrote in the ones from the zip. This solved the issue with NO FC's whatsoever.

My original qualm was that that zip also overwrites some CSC files and other xmls needed, but this method worked fine.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] -sandro-:
only using ART

---------- Post added at 06:08 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:57 PM ----------

so you can just flash those apks and service mode is accessible as well?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] toastido:
Yep!
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] -sandro-:
Does still work with ART with no FCs?

My SGS3 i9300 reboot at the random time and blocked at the first screen, can't get in to the system. My rom is CM10.1.3. I can get into the Recovery (TWRP). it will be ok only when I format the internal memory, reflash the system.

i draw out the recovery log from TWRP, it found a reminder "E:Cannot load volume /misc!", can anyone help me to analyze the reason? it's boring for too much reflash.

only App "Lucky pather" got the SU permission, and I also use this app to block the google play updating.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
Lucky Patcher may be your problem as aWarez app .
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gq.ciba:
Perhaps， there are some compatible problem in I9300 with CM10.1.3.

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Simonzi:
I'm using my phone on ATT, in an area with pretty good LTE coverage. My bootloader is unlocked, and phone is rooted. Stock rom. I have one wireless network saved, which is my home network. I manually set this up when I got my Nexus 5, I did not import wifi settings from a backup. For the first few weeks, everything was fine. This is a relatively new problem I've noticed, maybe the past week or so.

My daily routine generally goes, leave for work in the morning, come home in the afternoon. I'll start my day connected to my home wifi. When I leave, most of the time it will connect to LTE. Maybe only 10 - 15% of the time, it will connect to HSPA, and just show the "H" icon, not LTE. If I'm stopped at a stop light, I can toggle airplane mode, and it will automatically connect to LTE, even though I'm in the same physical location and haven't moved. Along the way to work, which is about a 5 mile drive, I can notice it searching for wifi networks, picking them up all along the way. I can check the available wifi list, and see it updating. I get to work, and it will pick up the wifi networks there, which I do not connect to. It stays on LTE all day.

8 hours later when I leave work, wifi is no longer scanning for networks. Even if I go into my wifi options, and manually choose "Scan", it won't update the list. I'll go 5 miles home, and it'll still show the same work wifi networks with nearly full strength, despite being miles away. Hit "scan" again, and nothing. Doesn't refresh the list. If I try to connect to one of the far out of range work ones, it'll just switch to "saved". Toggle airplane mode, and it'll start scanning networks again, and automatically connect to my actual saved home network.

I've toggled all the settings in the advanced wifi options. I've tried the FXR WiFi Fix and Rescue app (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.brilliapps.wifiandmorefixer), which deletes all my saved wifi settings and re-added it, still the same issue.

collor what is not supported by phone will not turn on :)

and to get orange led press on yellow collor and block phone .

Cmon ! Use your brains and google search before posting !

there are lot of app like that !
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] kylelaker:
I tried that app. But it green and orange light doesn't works only red is it hardware damage
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] richish:
What about unread sms or missed calls, does led not turning on when u have some notification?

Did u try other roms or u still on stock ?
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] kylelaker:
Yes before it has green lights blinking while while i have message but now no sign of lights,my stock version is b107 and upgrade it to b111 and i root it using eroot.i dont remember if its because of root or the firmware
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] miz_pimp:
Have you tried a factory reset? I believe that when setting up your phone, adding your Google account during setup causes issues with the notification led.

Try it, then skip adding your Google account during setup. You can always add your Google account after you're done setting up your phone. Then check whether your led is working properly.

Our problem is identical dave74x. I have been trying to find this image too. But no luck. I'm hoping someone that upgraded like us hasn't been savvy enough to not try flashing anything crazy. All we can do is wait. Good luck dave74x

Edit: If CNexus can find someone that successfully rooted the stock 4.3 OTA and have them make a dump for us/each of us (depending on memory size in your phone).
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] dave74x:
Anyone?? I can't believe no one has a 4.3 debrick image or is willing to dump one. IMPORTANT... If you updated to 4.3 and you tried to flash back and bricked then you will need a 4.3 debrick image, nothing else will work!! If I can't find one in a day or so I'm just going to send it to my friend in Texas for a JTAG....
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] thenexusgeneration:
The problem is that everyone waited because of KNOX and has CNexus's un-KNOX'ed ROM without the 4.3 bootloader. Then the people that did update to the OTA haven't been able to root or get SuperSU/Super User to work at all. I'm going to try other forum sites and i suggest you do the same dave74x.
