None of these codes work on my Verizon S5 :( probably disabled...do you know if there is a way to enable them?

Yes there is, but only for the ROOTED phone.

Here is how:

Open file /efs/carrier/HiddenMenu and modify its content from OFF to ON. Then reboot the phone.

Is there a way to force 4g conection ?

[Galaxy S 5 General] Krytoan:
The only way is to select the default mobile network LTE/CDMA. It'll choose 4G if available and switch back to 3G if that's your only option. One reason I liked my old S2 was for this reason, having a 4G switch, which would take less battery if I'm not using networks at all (at least that's my opinion).

[Galaxy S 5 General] vndnguyen:
Hello,

You can get all available secret codes in your device by using Shortcut Master app --> 'Secret Code Explorer' menu.

[IMG="Secret codes"]http://s23.postimg.org/h6zjok4jv/image.png[/IMG]
[Galaxy S 5 General] dada4821:

Because i cant launch any servicemode for choosing frequency Lte ?

[MENTION=2018502]vndnguyen[/MENTION]

What's the secret code for this screen ? and for S5 please ?

dan
[Galaxy S 5 General] vndnguyen:
It is *#27663368378#. You can see this code in my app Shortcut Master --> 'Secret Code Explorer' menu.

This code can only be launched with ROOT permission. I will add the ability to launch this code with root permission in the next release of Shortcut Master app.
[Galaxy S 5 General] vndnguyen:
Hi, I have updated Shortcut Master to v1.1.0.

I have added 'Launch Method 0' for secret codes. This method allows you to launch secret code with ROOT permission. This way you can launch almost ALL secret codes available for your device, that may have been prohibited due to security policy by Samsung.

Now you can open 'Secret Code Explorer' menu, scroll down to 27663368378 and launch it (root is required).
[Galaxy S 5 General] pish180:
I still can't get this to work on my Verizon S5 (SM-G900V - v4.4.2 - G900VVRU1ANCG). I can get into this menu but I dont know where to navigate to open that dialog. I have tried manually searching for that shortcut "Servicemode" and "service mode" and none of those open that dialog.

Thanks,

Pish

I found it but now there is another problem.

If you look for code 2263 and use root privileges (method 0) to open it you get the menu. Options are as follows:

1 - Automatic

2 - WCDMA Band Preference

3 - GSM Band Preference

4 - LTE Band Preference

5 - WCDMA/GSM Mode Only

6 - LTE/WCDMA Mode Only

7 - LTE/GSM Mode Only

If I choose anything other than an LTE mode, I get an icon (where the reception icon is) with a circle with a forward slash in it (meaning no service). Perhaps there is something more to set the Verizon S5 in CDMA only mode? I know on my Motorola Razr Maxx HD there was an option to CDMA auto (PRL). Perhaps it doesn't have the Preferred Roaming List (PRL)? I have run the *228 but it gives me a message: Sim Card: A Version Wireless SIM card has been activated your service and updated your phone's roaming capabilities ...
[Galaxy S 5 General] pish180:
See the attached screenshots.
[Galaxy S 5 General] pish180:
FOUND IT.

I found it! I am now able to toggle 3g mode manually using my Verizon S5 thanks to Root and "Shortcut Master" app. :victory:

search for "Radio"

The Java package is at: com.android.settings.RadioInfo

Once here it is like pressing the old *#*#4636#*#* on other phones such as my old Motorola Razr Maxx HD.

After you launch the RadioInfo package you can then choose which radio you want to use. I use "CDMA auto (PRL)" and it works perfectly.

Now to test and see how battery life is now in troubled 4G area's by forcing 3G.

See the attachments.
[Galaxy S 5 General] Spedkiller:
For reference of an easier way to pull up this radio selection menu via another app (still requires root): Advanced Signal Status https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.cc.signalinfo

Click on Additional Info at the bottom of the app, grant root permission, then select device info.
[Galaxy S 5 General] pish180:
Great Thanks! The first time I tried to run, it crashed and didn't ask me for root privileges. 2nd time worked fine. :good:

Is there any secret code to show you how many hours your phone worked so far?

code or way to force roaming to home only or automatic

Hi, just found this thread and was wondering if there was some way to open roaming options that i had on another phone that had cyanogenmod rom on it. It allowed you to go into roaming and select either home only (verizon) or automatic (which would make me roam when close to the U.S./Mexico border. Home only would filter out the Mexican signal and allow me to connect to the weaker U.S. signal. Is there some way to do this? I'm on Verizon Ricks Rom Galaxy S5 Kitkat. Thanks.
[Galaxy S 5 General] vndnguyen:
Can you show any picture or screenshot of this feature on another phone?
[Galaxy S 5 General] handy-freak:
Or you download Xposed Installer (root recomendend), and install the LTE Only Mode module.
[Galaxy S 5 General] scottsdca:
My setting for network operators is greyed out and I cannot access or click on that setting to open it. Here is a picture of the settings in Cyanogenmod you can get that the stock settings don't offer. The home only or automatic options would fall under "system select". I couldn't find a screenshot of the actual home only and automatic buttons.
[Galaxy S 5 General] scottsdca:
Also I am on Verizon. I noticed the screenshot you put up is T-Mobile or ATT. Not sure if that makes a difference in roaming settings. I do know my 'network operators' option is greyed out though so I cannot click on it.

That's OK. Now in your Windows PC, open Control Panel > Network Settings > Create a new connection > Dial-up connection. Then input your APN as a dialing number, your APN username/password...

You can get the correct APN, user and password by open Settings > More networks > Mobile networks > Access Point Names.

I did that, and I got "no server response" and "error 634". I'll keep messing with it. Also, will this work for voice dial?
[Galaxy S 5 General] vndnguyen:
I'm not sure, please double check your network settings. You may need to consult your service provider for the proper parameters.

For voice dial, it should work. Also ask your service provider for the dialing number, as well as username/password etc...

But that type of connection is very limited in the speed (typically only 9.6kbps - very low and slow).

Just thought you guys should know you can force LTE by running an app called Advanced Signal Network in a rooted phone. It will force close the first time you go into Additional Info and then into Device Information. There's a deep down there, where you can select LTE exclusively. I use it a lot to avoid roaming down by the Mexican border. Bad thing is that if there is no LTE, you won't get anything until you respect LTE/CDMA auto.
