Sure. My multi CSC package is comprised of all the Canadian CSCs the name of the package is XAC. Now that I'm writing this I realize that I didn't touch the build.prop. Sorry... What I did is go to the system folder using root explorer. I went into the XAC folder and selected my specific CSC in this case RWC and I copy pasted into system (went back 2 times) allowing it to take precedent over all the other CSCs. Rebooted and my CSC was back to RWC and my VoLTE worked once again. Hope this helps. [emoji4]

Hi! I have updated the app already to support Android 6.0. But it still requires root to work.

Since the Android 6.0 Marshmallow, it needs root to read the Usage Counters. It is due to Samsung has strengthened its security policy. If you have root, you still can see those info. It is not the app's mistake. Please read the FAQ #01 here: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=49425630&postcount=3

This is a really good app i stumbled on it by mistake too
[Android Apps and Games] finsoft03:
First of all thank you very much for making such an useful app. Today I checked my friend's note edge for refurbishment. The message says like The phone firmware is modified. What does this mean actually?
[Android Apps and Games] vndnguyen:
That means the firmware has been modified and was not a original one.

It does not mention about the hardware, so it does NOT mean that the phone was refurbished.
[Android Apps and Games] vndnguyen:
Don't worry, it's just a NOTE, not a WARNING message. Your phone is still original.

It's just a bonus information.

On a refurbished phone, the message will be shown as a WARNING.

Hope that helps to clarify.
[Android Apps and Games] donky kong 017:
Hello,

its a great app. use it regularly since i have Samsung devices.

Just one Question. What does the "latest Firmware" actually say. There are 3 Parts. i guess its like one for pda one for bootloader one for csc version, but i cant not guess which is which. and one more thing. i heard that the codes for bootloader and modem should all be the same as the rom., when i use a custom rom.

i saw a picture in the thread that all pda, csc and baseband where the same. is that so?

when i use a custom rom i want to flash modem and bootloader seperatley from the rom. i just want to know that the modem and bootloader code is exactly for which i should look out.

thx in advance
[Android Apps and Games] vndnguyen:
3 parts are in the same order as listed in the FIRMWARE tab, i.e PDA/CSC/BASEBAND.
[Android Apps and Games] donky kong 017:
Thank you very much for your help

Yes, of course.

The factory reset does not change the refurbishment state.

Hi vndnguyen,

Brought a brand new phone however Phone INFO is showing a high charge counter (2,200+ times). Any idea what the cause might be other than the factory copying old data to partitions?

Great app!

Thanks.

If you are sure that it is brand new, that is the only cause I can think about.

Hi,

You can get the details about the battery by tapping 03 times on the 'Battery Status' item in the MONITOR tab.

There you can see the battery condition (Health) as well as battery technology (Li-ion/NiMH/etc...).

For now I don't know how to check if it's genuine, sorry.

Ok, Thanks for screen... I have one question to you about my phone,Not about this app but may you know, I saw there's alternate method to see about phone's refurbishement via RTN code that's only accessable from special phone codes or from launchers but neither is work (Can't find RTN service) for my galaxy s4... So i thought may company specially not allow this option for me to never knowing that my phone is refurbished or something else.. thats why i have to interested about your app's verity (sorry for my english)
[Android Apps and Games] vndnguyen:
Sorry I have no idea about RTN code, but you can check it in the "Secret Codes" menu (on the left side).
[Android Apps and Games] Shotiko13:
Yes, I already checked but not found unfortunately, but it's ok. the most important thing is that the app's work
[Android Apps and Games] vndnguyen:
You can use my another app, Shortcut Master, to search for the RTN, if it's available in your phone.

In the Shortcut Master app, open the "Search..." menu, enter 'rtn' then tap the Search button.

I'll Check, Thank you once again :):good:
[Android Apps and Games] vndnguyen:
Please tap on 'Root Existence' item to see what it shows.

If it shows just 1 line with "eu.chainfire.supersu", it is just because you have installed the SuperSU app from the Play Store.

Your device is not actually rooted.

(that's why I named this item as 'Root Existence', i.e any existence of rooting).

Just uninstall the SuperSU app and it will report as No.

Yesterday the app consumed very much battery and according to the information in my phone's settings, the app used my camera for over an hour. What has happened there? The app doesn't record anything, does it?
[Android Apps and Games] vndnguyen:
Not likely, because there is no module that runs in the background. And the camera permission is used only for the info about cameras.

Can you show me the following details:

- Screenshot of the battery usage?

- Screenshot where it says that the app used the camera for over an hour?

Thank you for your feedback.
[Android Apps and Games] Micha_Schy:
I already deleted the app...

I'm going to reinstall it now, I'll get back to this thread when the issue shows up again.
[Android Apps and Games] vndnguyen:
Ok thank you. Hope you don't get it shown in the battery usage screen again, because I have tested it carefully on different devices.

Regarding to the usage of camera, the app only accesses the camera for the first time when it starts to obtain info about the camera, and then releases it. I have explained about permissions in the app's description.
[Android Apps and Games] vndnguyen:
The code for bandwidth selection is *#2263#, not *#0011#.

You can enter this code directly on the dialpad to launch it.

Or if this method does not work, try to launch it by using my app, if you have root.

In the Phone INFO app > menu 'Secret Codes' > select 2263 > select 'Launch 0' (requires root).
[Android Apps and Games] vndnguyen:

[Android Apps and Games] vndnguyen:
Not sure what you meant? There are no 2263 and 0011 codes, or they do not work?

If there is no codes, it is due to your custom firmware and nothing to do, except you change to another firmware.
[Android Apps and Games] Kamal363:
2263 code is not in app... dialing 0011 code no working...

Send from SM G900F xXx v5.4 Boeffla v2.1 Twrp 3.0.2-0
[Android Apps and Games] vndnguyen:
If the code does not exist, it is due to the custom rom you are using. There's nothing to do except to change to another rom/firmware that supports this code.

If the code is still there but does not work, it is due to the security policy has restricted it. You need root for it to work.

Hope that helps to clarify.
[Android Apps and Games] vndnguyen:
Hi. Maybe you accidentally deactivated the Phone permission group that is required to read the IMEI number. So please try the following:

Open the system Settings > Applications > Application manager > select Phone INFO app > Permissions > make sure the Phone permission is enabled.

Then open the app and check again.
[Android Apps and Games] vndnguyen:
Hi,

That "Phone permission" is actually not the single permission. It is a permission group, i.e it may contain different permissions inside, e.g. "directly call phone numbers", or "read phone status and identity".

If you navigate to the app on the Play Store and select Permission details to view detail about this permission, you can see it contains only "read phone status and identity" permission and there is no "directly call phone numbers".

Hope that helps to clarify.
[Android Apps and Games] jasonphils:
I am an avid fan of your Phone Info Samsung app and use it on several of my rooted devices. I would just like to know how accurate it is when trying to test a non rooted device for the Charger Connect, Headset Connect and S-pen detach? I installed it on "new" Note 4 n910c running stock rom 5.1.1 that was not rooted and the Charger Connect read 1429. Is this accurate? I did not buy the device for that reason but would like to clarify if it is accurate for a non rooted phone.

Hope all is well and look forward to your response.
[Android Apps and Games] vndnguyen:
I can confirm that the counter was read properly from the device.

but I have no idea why it has that strange value.

There are several reasons that may cause the issue:

- The device is actually old.

- The device uses the custom rom that has been ported from an old device.

- The device uses the stock firmware that has been dumped from an old device.

- It is the issue from Samsung...
[Android Apps and Games] vndnguyen:
And one more reason that may cause this issue:

If the charging cable is bad, it can continuously connect-disconnect while the phone is charging, that can make the counter increased repeatedly.

So please also check your charging cable.

[Android Apps and Games] vndnguyen:
Hi,

"su not found" means "SuperUser not found", ie "root not found".

It is because you have selected "Launch 0" to launch a secret code, and this method requires root to work.

[Android Apps and Games] vndnguyen:
So it seems your phone is fulfill all requirements for changing the CSC: root + stock firmware + multi-CSC firmware.

Is there any message when your were trying to change the CSC?

Anyway, the CSC Changer is a internal (built-in) tool of Samsung and my app just provides a shortcut to it for users' convenience.

So if it does not work, it is NOT the app's mistake.

Thank you for understanding.
[Android Apps and Games] vndnguyen:
Does your smartwatch have the serial number?

If yes, use the "S/N and IMEI Analyzer" menu in the Phone INFO app to get the date of manufacturing.
[Android Apps and Games] vndnguyen:
If there was such a info, I would have added it to the app already. So you can guess that the info you have requested is not available at all.

However there are some other workarounds that may help:

1) there is the info called "Activation Date" in the PERSONAL tab. But this info is only available on some brand models. If this is not available on your device, it will not be shown.

2) if you charge the phone normally once a day, you can take the "Charger Connect Counter" and calculate back to get the approximate purchased date.

3) in some countries, Samsung has implemented the e-Warranty. So you can send the IMEI to Samsung's service number and it will send you back a expired warranty date. That way you can know the purchased date.

Hope this helps.

Hi,

I am using this app for some time. I recently purchased S7 Edge (SM-G935FD). And this app reports model as SM-G935F. Is there any way to figure out why is model name different? SamMobile site has firmware for both models and same CSC, so I am bit confused which one is the correct.
[Android Apps and Games] Mike B.:
Out of curiosity, what model number is listed in your "About Phone" or your build.prop ("/system/build.prop", ro.product.model and ro.product.device)? If you truly have the SM-G935FD (with dual SIMs), you should use that firmware, not the one for the single-SIM SM-G935F.
[Android Apps and Games] skydivider:
Re:

In about phone is listed as SM-G935FD. It indeed has two sim cards. I downloaded stock image for that model(SM-G935FD) and appropriate CSC and can confirm it is working well

And this application (Phone INFO) lists my phone as SM-G935F model and searches firmwares for that model. And just to ad up CSC is correctly reported.

The reason for this discrepancy might be the fact that phone is produced just 25 days ago(according to this application) and there is just one stock image for combination of SM-G935FD and my CSC on SamMobile.

On this forum in questions section, someone mentioned that stock images for SM-G935F can be flashed on SM-G935FD , but I did not have courage to try this.

Hi.

I just made a search on the post and I don't find anything.

Yesterday I tried app on Galaxy S8+ SM-G955F. All information was showed OK, but about screen size and resolution it didn't tell truth. Concretely, app said that screen size was 5.79 inch (I was trying on a S8+ with 6.2 inch LCD) and about screen resolution a very rare value appeared: 2050x1080 ?

Obviously, device is Samsung original and it never has been modified by SW or HW...

It can be an app bug? Tomorrow I'll try it with a work mate that has exactly the same S8+.
