Hi,
I have SIM unlock code and have weird issue that input box for SIM unlock does not provide any means for actually entering information. Box comes up as expected but initially keyboard is not shown. So basically empty screen with just input field. I have to click Windows button and go to settings to bring keyboard icon available on titlebar and even that one looks weird (you can see it in video below) left and right parts are white out.
After I enter my code into input field I press Enter button and nothing happens.
Any ideas?

BTW if interested how did I record video. This is really cool Free app called MyMobiler.

I have a problem when booting my phone in terms of trying to enter the password code for the sim when windows starts up. The screen pops up for this but does not allow you to properly enter the 4 digit code before other screens appear such as the Mobile Shell3 front end etc, meaning I can't make calls straight away.
In order to access the password screen properly I then have to go to comm manager, turn off the cellular radio then toggle it on again so that I am prompted with the sim unlock code, and it then can be input.
This is a bit of a pain & makes the whole soft reset process longer & more messy so if anyone knows how to get round this I'd be really pleased.
Got to admit though I LOVE SPB shell 3 so far. It's like Winterface but much better, especially with the registry hacks that allow you to extend the shortcut screens. Will be buying this once the trial expires (assuming you actually can buy it now...).
I have the same problem. Have to say that your way of resolving it is quicker than mine, though. Until I read your post, I was exiting MS3, enabling then disabling TF3D in order to get the password prompt.
I'd like a permanent solution, though.
Pretty sure I still had this problem before installing MS3 but it wasn't as bad. Beforehand the code screen would appear, then other stuff would appear over it, then once it had nearly finished booting it would re-appear and allow you to enter the code, but now that does not happen.
Found a Diagnosis screen using the old ##634# code.
When I type ##634# on my DVP I go a screen.. and lose the keyboard.
BTW on the DVP.. before you go to the screen "The Matrix" flashes..
How do I input the other codes then?
Also When going through a Customer Interface Test.. it turned on the LED and held it on.. anyway that can be turned into a Dell specific flashlight app, like the one the HTC phones use.
OK some of this maybe old news for programmers and some may not figured I would put it out here.
When I type ##634# on my DVP you go a "diagnostic screen" with a big EM on the top and left side. Interestingly enough before you go to the screen "The Matrix" flashes..
On the screen there is:
Phone information W/ phone information button
(Button displays Phone Information.. I know shocking isnt it)
System information W/ system information button
(Button displays System Information.. I know doubly shocking)
RD Test w/ RD Test button
Click it and a text box opens above buttons
CIT w/ Customer Interface Test button
(Click and runs a Test of the interface.. who would have guessed )
Protocol w/ Protocol button
Click it and a text box opens above buttons
Service Center w/ Service Center button
This is interesting.. a windo opens up with a Green box <ZUNE> and a Red box <Composite>
Under <Zune> is Download and Restore, under <Composite> test and debug
Current mode is: Zune Mode is written under that.
....................
Now I assume you would put other codes like those found here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=838464
In either the text box under RD or protocol.. but when I do nothing executes. its as if the enter key has no function.
Anyone have experience with WP7 on other phones and can tell us what is different and the same between the phones.. as far as getting in.. codes, tweaks, etc..
Two more things when the code is entered and you go to Diagnostic mode. It becomes an App call EM.
As for where to put codes...
On the topic of the Red Composite and Green Zune key in the Diagnostic screen..
When you hit the Red one a password box comes up
"Input password to Composite"
Along with a keypad to type in said password. Although there isnt a "enter" key in the phone pad. Tried a number of things nothing worked.
Anyone else messing with thiers?
Looking at how the Samsung was "hacked" to run tethering I am wondering if the "composite" key is the one that gets you to tethering. Since the option is ZUNE or COMPOSITE.. and we know that you ahve the either or option with tethering.

Here is a vid.. of it
the video title says dell venue pro has a bug, what is it?
is there a code to check if the phone is unlocked?

what is the polling frequency? what does it do? and can i benefit from it?
After typing ##634# on the DVP and the "Diagnostic Screen" pops up after the "The Matrix" flashes..
There are a couple codes that will work.
For the RD Test w/ RD Test button
Click it and a text box opens above buttons
Enter *#6336# code in text box to have access to MFC Test options
I'm not sure but it may be possible to fix the MicroSD card issue people have been having.
Protocol w/ Protocol button
Click it and a text box opens above buttons
Enter the same code "*#6336#" (w/out quotations) in text box to have access to
Protocol menu w/ Active Feature, GMS FREQ & Band changing options.
In the Service Center w/ the Green box <ZUNE> and a Red box <Composite>
Click it and a text box opens above buttons
Enter the same code "*#301#" (w/out quotations) in text box to switch to Composite Mode. Phone will restart.
If anyone else has any finds or updates on other codes let me know.
I am currently trying to find a way to repair the error after removing MicroSD

I think it is hold the Camera and Volume + while powering on. I did the same thing you did and was able to hard reset using this method, it could be Camera and Volume - , try both, one will work
Just to start. Yes I have exhausted my search before asking. I am looking to improve call quality by switching to EVRC B. However using
Tried: **772
SPC code 000000
The bottom of the screen will have buttons that are directional like a d-pad.
Tried: 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 Hidden menu Enable radio button.
I am erasing the first entry before entering the second and im not pressing send..... the spc box never pops up for either
However I can get into testing and long shut down button enabled menus, however I can't get into gps testing (mine works fine) or others.
All I want is to switch to evrc b and volume controls to see if it helps. There has to be a difference between the verizon and telus code dialers.
Any help is much appreciated!, love the phone, but it should be a phone first everything else second not the other way around.
Phone is a telus fascinate, not rooted.
no one on telus?
Are you on 2.2? I noticed that on 2.2 some of the "secret codes" don't seem to work and just give you a blank screen. However try installing SGS Tools. The dev pulled the app from the market because he doesn't have time to fix all the bugs, but the secret codes when launched from this app work for on my phone. You can get the last version on this thread:

I am on 2.2, I can access some codes but not all I can never get the spc box to pop up but let me try this! I was starting to get frustrated.
non rooted I must add
Well, unless im missing something there is no vocoder option. I have been able to get into most this stuff using codes but not vocoder
I do apologize if there is a threat for this but with no good topics (many are wrong or misguided) I can't read all the threats in xda and you know it.
Specs:
Phone: Samsung Omnia II.
OSROM: GC Lite - WM6.5.3
Problem: When boot up it goes to the lockscreen with background of my friend's grandson and the slide to open button.
Sliding the button gives a pad to enter the code.
Entering the code and hitting the unlock button (open lock icon) it does nothing!
It doesn't go anywhere and after few seconds it returns to the slide button front page.
Is there a way of getting in the phone without Hard Reset so the numbers on it or anything else on the internal sd doesn't get deleted?
Thanks!
I have a similar problem. It doesn't accept my usual unlock code and I don't know why. I didn't change anything.
Did you find a solution?
I just unboxed my Nexus 10, was entering my Google password and decided to alter the keyboard settings while typing it (to kill the sounds). When I got into the language menu for the keyboard settings I couldn't exit the menu - there was no OK or Save button, and I tried tapping everywhere on the screen but couldn't get the return button to display at the bottom. I had to reboot the tablet to use it again.
Is anyone familiar with this problem?

It must have locked up because I have never been stuck in the keyboard language settings.

It didn't "lock up" per se, as I could still select the language options on the page, as well as scrolling up and down the list of languages. The problem was that there was no option to close the page and go back

Make the changes and hit the back button. I think you'll find the changes have been saved.

The problem is I can't get the back button to appear. I've tried tapping on every square inch of the screen (particularly at the bottom) and none of the 3 usual buttons appear. I noticed the same problem when I took an Asus Memo Pad back to PC World for repair a few weeks ago - their guy did a factory reset and also got locked in the language selection screen - neither of us could work out how to get out of it because we couldn't get the Back button to appear

Weird - I've never had that before. Unfortunately I have rooted and unlocked my Nexus and am running a different ROM. I'll try with mine and see what I get
