Hell yes!

After a few hours trying to uncover the dialing code string for the Fascinate, I finally figured it out!

I've dug into *almost* all the AndroidManifest.xmls to compose a list of hidden menus you can gain access to.

I shouldn't have to say it, but I will..

I'm not responsible if you brick your phone.

Play with these things at your own risk.

Even if I said it's been tested by me and confirmed to work.

It's not my fault if your phone takes a crap on you.

Make a backup of your phone.

I will be doing some more testing and will uncover more hidden menus, but this is what I have for now..

Some members of another forum where having trouble using these codes and I've discovered that you need Hiddenmenu enabled. To enable Hiddenmenu, do the following:

Go into the Dialer and enter *#83786633 then press the Home key

Go back into the phone dialer and enter *#22745927

Now a box will come up asking for the SPC code. Enter 000000

Press the Hiddenmenu Enable radio button.

Now you can use these codes.

The dialing code string you have to use is *##

Here are some things you can gain access to

Audio Tuning

*#28346#

Several audio tuning menus.

I've only tested the two items below:

To silence boot and shutdown audio go to Situation/BOOTSOUND and turn the values to 0. I've tested and confirmed this works.

To silence the volume key audio when turning the volume up/down go to Situation/VOLUMEKEY and turn the values to 0. I've tested and confirmed this works.

Full Bat Popup

*#3844228#

This allows you to disable the full battery pop-up.

I have tested this and it works successfully.

HwCodec

*#0002*28346#

Audio path volume controls. Most importantly, it looks like there's a sidetone adjustment.

I have not tested any of these items yet.

Shutdown

*#7594#

This enables you to shut your phone off by long-pressing the power/lock key.

No more pop-up confirmation.

I have tested this and it works successfully.

I also need to point out that this disables your slide lock screen.

Diag/Testing Mode

*#4636*1111#
[Fascinate General] BTownTKD:
Does this allow us to change intricate GPS settings, ala the "GPS fixes" for the earlier Galaxy S models?

Or is that not an issue with the Fascinate?
[Fascinate General] DeezNotes:
This isn't working for me. Nothing happens after I do this.

I enter the first string, press home, press dialer, the first string is still there and I enter the second string. Nothing happens.
[Fascinate General] egg_head:
You can gain access to a GPSSetup menu using this short code-

*#1472365#

The settings are set to the "fixed" values by default.

You don't need to change anything.

You can go into Command and then start GPS and force a satellite lock.

There's other cool info there too.

[tapatalk on android]

After pressing Home and entering back into the dialing, clear the first code and enter the second.

I will update the directions to include that.

[Fascinate General] flam253:
awesome that you figured out how to enable secret menus...now how do we enter into diag mode? i wonder what code that is. i tried 8778 but that didnt work out
[Fascinate General] egg_head:
*#7594#

If your enable this, it appears to not only shutdown your phone with a long press of the power key, but it also disables your lock screen (puzzle/glass screen).

[tapatalk on android]
[Fascinate General] egg_head:
Still trying to figure that out..

Thanks! That worked.

[Fascinate General] ivorycruncher:
Sweet, now I can disable that VERY annoying battery full popular message.
[Fascinate General] DeezNotes:
It looks like the message goes away, but the screen still turns on when the battery is full. I love how bright the screen is, but even at the lowest setting this phone can light up an entire room.
[Fascinate General] BTownTKD:
Thank you SO much for including the "disable battery full popup". That thing was annoying as HELL!

Bummer that it turns on the screen, still. Also, I agree that the screen is extremely bright, even with "night mode" in the Desk Cradle app. I'd like it if I could decrease the "minimum brightness" value even more, so I could use this phone + cradle as my alarm clock replacement.

i just recently used htc mail client for my yahoo mail..

how can i filter so it only show the inbox email... not the spam email also..??
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] olly230:
so no answer to this then?

My main yahoo account has an active spam folder and I can't seem to get htc mail to do the same.

Am i missing a really obvious method to mimic the folder structure of my yahoo account?

If i do that will it htc mail sync messages to those folders?

How to extract the file nv.img
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zaphodb2002:
So, I messed up. The plan was to uninstall RyanZA's lagfix, then flash JAC's new OC/UV kernel with Voodoo. I got distracted, and didn't uninstall the lagfix before flashing (through Clockwork, if that matters). My phone didn't boot after an hour, so I figured I'd nandroid back and not be so stupid this time. When I tried, I found that I couldn't because of the change to the /data from Voodoo. So then I figured I'd just use Odin to go back to stock, I've done it a couple of times before. That didn't work either, Odin went just fine, but it still doesn't get past the black screen. I read the Voodoo thread, and saw the "disable-lagfix" thing you can do, but now I can't mount my sdcard, and when I try to push it with ADB, it says permission denied. How can I fix this? Also, as an aside, since I flashed the stock back on, with the T-Mobile boot anim and all that, will I be able to get it replaced, if need be?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] speoples20:
Flash this first:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=740558

Then flash back to stock with odin, worked for me.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zaphodb2002:
Yeah, reading into the voodoo thread some more, I found it, and just fixed everything. Thanks for the quick reply! Odd that the froyo rom fixes it, but whatever, happy to not have to go to T-Mo tomorrow!
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dragoth12:
Yeah, I soft bricked my phone yesterday and couldn't get it back up and running with the stock rom until after I flashed eugenes froyo rom first. My guess is that because eugene codes his roms to automatically format your OS drive it clears everything out and sets a fresh slate so you can than flash the stock rom back without issues.

Pure speculation on my part though. Glad you got it fixed.
[Fascinate General] egg_head:
Not sure if this matters to anyone, but in the directory data/wifi there is a file bcm_supp.conf that will show you the SSID and password of any wifi networks your phone has remembered.

I came across this while roaming through my device.

This might be useful to know I suppose.

I figured it's fun to know where stuff like this is stored and how it looks in your phone.

I believe you need to be rooted to explorer these directories..

[Galaxy S I9000 General] zeusalmighty:
Hey all, I've got a few problems with my SGS I'd like to share:

- As per the title, I have an issue with mobile internet (2G/3G). I have my APN set up correctly, and the data connection does work. BUT if I use an application like QuickSettings to turn off "Mobile Data (APN)" then try to switch is back on it will not work. I have tried the suggestion to use flight mode for a while and back on but that doesn't always work. I noticed that when my mobile data does start working, the wifi icon is usually turned ON (which I had turned off).

Another issue is with the WiFi. It can sometimes turn on by itself, even though it doesn't connect to a network. Plus, there are times that the icon is stuck at "turning off Wifi". Any suggestions?

- One-Click Lag Fix

- Rooted

- using QuickSettings

- WiFi sleep policy set to "Never"
[Galaxy S I9000 General] AllGamer:
i read all of the above, but you did not mention which ROM you were in.

i read about some ROMs doing exctly those things you are trying to fix

best way is to load a newer more stable stock ROM
[Galaxy S I9000 General] zeusalmighty:
Apologies, I am a noob :D

Using 2.1 update1

kernel 2.6.29

I'm sorry, I don't even know how to find which ROM I'm using. I'm pretty sure it's the default Samsung ROM with latest update since Kies keeps telling me there's no update available. If that info is not enough please let me know how to find out which rom I'm using, thanks!

No idea what that means but there you go!
[Galaxy S I9000 General] AllGamer:
yup, that's way too old

definitely upgrade to something newer

do you have Kies installed?

if you hook up your phone to Kies it should tell you that there is a new ROM available
[Galaxy S I9000 General] zeusalmighty:
OK, finally managed to set up Kies in a way that it detects my phone in Kies mode...and it says there's not update available!

Eitherway, I Odin to flash to JM8 (official i think) and now the mobile data problem is gone...It feels like the phone is working a bit faster aswell. Thanks!

Same problem of zeusalmighty, but I have frojo rom updated from kies.
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] the1wingedangel:
Does anyone else find it annoying that the notification LED only stays flashing for 5 minutes or so, then shuts off? A little pointless to have, since unless you look at your phone every few minutes, you have to turn on the screen anyway to see if you have a text/email/missed call.

Anyone find a way around it? The apps that use the custom notification led flash time/color/etc (i.e. missed call) don't seem to make it last any longer either.
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] OuncE718:
Yea, I agree with you.it defeats the purpose. I also hate that after a while my gmail notification and text goes away. Like if I'm sleeping and i get a gmail or text, when I wake my phone might flash and I would have to open up my gmail or messages to figure out why its flashing. I hope I didn't confuse you.

task killers don't affect it. i know cm6 keeps the notification going for as long as you don't check your message. it's an htc sense problem/feature.
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] OuncE718:
No, he was right when he said it was the task killer cause it hasn't happened to me since I ignored the messaging and gmail app.

[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] the1wingedangel:
No, actually the task killer idea is not even close. This issue is present in multiple out of the box (aka bone stock, ie no apps installed, read: task killer was not installed) phones. An app not installed can not cause a problem. This issue also exists in stock rooted 2.1 espresso roms, also with no task killer installed.
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MusicMan374:
Yeah you're right. I don't have this issue on cm6.1, must be a stock issue for sure. Android manages tasks for the most part perfectly fine anyway, taskillers just get in the way, I wouldn't use them at all. In 2.2 they don't even work properly because google made it impossible for one app to kill another app. Only the android system can now.
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] OuncE718:
I think its set to shut off the notification by default on the stock roms to help conserve battery.

[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MusicMan374:
I can see the rationale behind that, but honestly, if whoever came up with that really thought that through, how could they not realize that they were essentially killing the whole point of the notification light? It just defeats the purpose almost entirely.
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] OuncE718:
I agree with what your saying, but let me ask you a question. If you were HTC or Google how long would you set the notification light before it shuts off? I guess the only way to win is to allow the consumer to have the option of setting the notification light to shut off at a certain time or to never shut off unless the message (for example) is checked.

[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MusicMan374:
Yeah that would have been good. But 5 minutes? Really? At least an hour would have been nice, or like you said, a custom option. Either way, @ the original poster, you probably can't change it in the stock ROM, at least not without some hard work.
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] OuncE718:
Unfortunately we can not set the led's timer in the stock rom unless we have root. I don't know why google/htc didn't give us this option. To me its not an issue. If you have the time to pick up the phone and check for the led notification then you should be able to spare a second to check the screen for notifications also. Although its more convenient to be notified by the led light notification rather than the screens notification.

Can someone please explain deodex-ing please.
[Droid X General] Lt1demon:
Look for chadhaney(. Com). Sorry for the (), I'm a new user and can't post links. Look for droid x default and it has downloads for all the stock apps.

This is the page i use to reinstall bloatware/system apps. After you download, it will save to your sd card.
[Droid X General] MrDanger:
In simple terms... deodexed is making your phone available to be themed. It removes all of the .odex files in the system/framework and system/app and combine them with their corresponding .apk

In a stock phone you will have as an example Camera.apk & Camera.odex. If you deodex your phone, the two .apk and .odex will be combined into one Camera.apk.

That is also how to check if your system is deodexed or not... look in your system/app & system/framework folders and if you do not see any .odex, then you are deodexed and ready for themes.

Sounds like you are not deodex so just follow what Lt1demon says.

Do you know if you've been using rmnet builds or ppp ones?

could also be things like radio/winmo rom combo, radio/android build combo. I don't trust speedtest.net either. It seems to give higher than actual readings.

Check my sig and if you don't mind the initial setup time and having a stripped down winmo rom, try out that combination. I recommend either of the android builds there. I can confirm fast market downloads on both. Currently using the MIUI build and I get fast speeds. (MIUI is a little buggy at first, but once it settles, it's good enough to be a daily build)
