I flashed a JK rom onto my tmobile tab with voice calling enabled and everytime the phone locks, I am unable to unlock and have to reset... any ideas? I have tried using a button remapper to no avail...
i've hade this before on my milestone, and i had to send it to repair... maybe u can rescue ur tab by flashing a new firmware with odin
Any more help?
did u already try to do a factory reset?
if not, u can do it with these steps:
1. power off the galaxy tab
2. turn it on while holding down the volume up key and pressing the home button (yes, the capacitiv touchscreen button <-- i dont know if this is necessary but i do it always like this )
3. select data/factory reset (navigate with the volume buttons)
4. reboot!
if this doesnt help then post again and ill see if i can help u!
greetings

please help i just got a new t4242 in the box and the guy in the shop probably did something stupid by setting a lock code without of course recognising it... plz help what can i do?is there a combination of keys to press in order to make it work?
You can undo this indeed via hard reset:
1. Switch of device.
2. Hold VOLUME DOWN and press ENTER, next push on/off button.
Than you get a message on the screen:
"All data will be lost etc."
3. Push button VOLUME UP to execute hard reset. Or press any other key to stop.....
!!!
thnx mate!very handy... all working perfectly now!thnx again!
Glad to hear .....another phone saved from mobile graveyard....
got a bit of a problem. i havent used the omnia 7 in quite a while and i turned it on today and i have forgotten the lockscreen 4 digit code. anyone know how i can remedy the situation please?
Hard-reset? VolumeDown + Camera + Power button.
thanks but cant get it to work
1. power-off your phone
2. press and hold Camera button and Volume Down button
3. press PowerOn button
4. you will see "Format your phone?" message
5. press Windows key
IT WILL DELETE ALL YOUR DATA, but also reset the pincode..
thats the method im trying but when i press the windows key nothing happens and the screen just goes blank
Hm, you might also try flashing some ROM:

thanks for your help sorted now after reflashing
Hallo guys, i just flashed N7000XXLPY via ODIN. Everything worked well but I have one big issue (that wasn't discussed in "bugs" thread).
Whatever I select, Swipe Unlock, Face recognition, Draw pattern, PIN code or whatever, it reacts the same: never requires swipe, PIN, pattern or else for unlocking. If i press briefly the power button, the display light switchs off. If I press again any other button (volume, home or power), the display light turns on but never asks for any method of unlocking. What to do? Does anyone else have the same issue?
Not happening here. Try a hard-reset after flashing a new ROM.
I have swipe unlock by default and it works. Screen does not power on when you press volume button, only if you press power or home button.
Thanks vcespon for your quick response. I tried hard reset via "Volume UP + Home + Power" method, I wiped cache, I tried hard reset via changing the CSC, I restored it to factory settings from menu, nothing worked. Any other oppinion?
LE: I found another issue, maybe is related with the first one. When I want to switch off the phone, I press (for 2 seconds) the power button and it just go to Samsung logo and swhitches off, without asking me those two questions about what I want to do (to can choose beetween flight mode, silent and power off) and if I'm sure that I want to power off the phone.
LE2: Tryed also Indian version (N7000DDLP8), no improvements.

Thanks for the advice, I won't do it in the future till a safe official Kernel will be released.

Hello Sir
Sir i am facing the same problem i have bought galaxy not n7000 and the problem i am facing is i have updated it to official ics indian rom and now i am not able to activate screen lock function and if i hold the lock buttton for 2-3 seconds the phone gets switched off, is it because of the kernel problem or anything else, i tried giving it to the samsung store but they dint fixed it. P.S i was not able to update my mobile through Kies as it said "this device can not be updated through kies" please help...
I just found a fast way to fix this problem.
1. Root your device.
2. Use this solution:
Download from Market "Terminal Emulator"
Open it and type this commands:
su
echo -n ON > /efs/imei/keystr
sync
reboot
100% works !

are u serious??? Never ever hard reset on the lpy!
Hello Sir
yes it worked, but will it go away if i flash it again with other rom and dont root it???
I have a Samsung Galaxy S (i9000). If I connect it to PC, I can see it is charging but I can not see the phone nor in Explorer or Download Mode.
The phone is using [NIGHTLY][ROM][4.2.1] CyanogenMod 10.1 for Samsung Galaxy S and I have installed it via CWM. No matter what ROm I installed via CWM, I could not see the phone in Explorer.
Another problem I encountered is that the phone can not be shut down: if I choose Shut Down it is restarting.
Any help will be appreciated.
Thank you.
Are you on windows 8?
Install the newest USB-Driver in Windows-7-Compatibility-Mode. If you are not on windows 8 it could help anyway.

Another solution for accesing your phone would be Airdroid on Play Store https://play.google.com/store/apps/...t=W251bGwsMSwxLDMsImNvbS5zYW5kLmFpcmRyb2lkIl0.
I would try to reflash your rom to solve your other problem.
I am using Windows 7.
I want to access Download Mode in order to change the ROM with ODIN.
I do not know how to reflash it. Can you provide me more details?
Thank you.
Save your Data and make a backup before doing anything.
First of all try to go to recovery wipe chache + dalvik + fix permissions reboot
Factory-Reset would be next to try.
If wiping does not help:
Solution 1 - Odin:
Access Download Mode over Powermenu -> Bootloader
or with shutdown (in your case press power ~8 seconds or remove battery), press volume-down + home + power than flash a rom with Odin.
Solution 2 Download your prefered rom copy the zip-File to your phone and flash it through recovery (same way you installed CM 10.1). Wipe cache + dalvik in recovery.
HOWTO GET INTO RECOVERY:
- Turn off your Phone
- Hold VOLUME UP + HOME Buttons
- While holding VOLUME UP + HOME Buttons press POWER Button until Display lights up, then release only POWER Button
- Still hold VOLUME UP + HOME until you got into Recovery
- Release all Buttons
------------------------------------------------------------------
HOWTO GET INTO DOWNLOAD-MODE (Bootloader):
- Turn off your Phone
- Hold VOLUME DOWN + HOME Buttons
- While holding VOLUME DOWN + HOME Buttons press POWER Button until you reach Download-Mode
- Release all Buttons
Thank you for answering my question, but I already did all of above. Even so, the problem is that my phone can not be seen in Download Mode.

But you managed to install a working rom?
Tried with another usb-cabel, computer or usb-port?
Perhaps this helps, although i never used Mobile Odin.

I just bought a used S5 active and I did a master reset on it to clear out the previous person's info and when i tried to get it to the main screen it has a samsung lock on it. Its on 4.4.2, I've looked up a few ways to bypass it, but most of them require me to be on the language selection screen, when i first boot the phone it goes to a wifi screen, does not give me a language option screen. Does anyone have any idea how to bypass this? I was not able to get ahold of the seller.
thanks

Navigate with the Volume button to "wipe data/factory reset" and press Power Button and select Yes

Many thanks.
