[Q] reboot option in power menu

hello i5800 users
i was looking for ways to add a reboot option in the power menu but none seem compatible with i5800. AFAIK it is done by installing andoid.policy.jar but how can i do it for i5800? any ideas?
p.s. something like "Hot Reboot" would also be very useful.
thanks in advance

If you have a rooted phone then you can use switch pro widget to reboot. Another free alternate is to use widgetsoid2.x
Just add widget to reboot.

my point was i don't want no widgets. i just want to have an option for reboot when i press the power button

Just use AnReboot from the Market, giving you the option to boot into Recovery Mode,as well.

Its not about the ROM, I think it can be done by modifying some .jar files or some .xml files.

You can't edit the .jar or XML files without to deodex the rom, and it seems like nobody did that yet...

I just read yesterday what's the matter with "deodexed". Am I right it's about to geht the .odex files back to .jar files? How can that be done?
Can this be done with the "xUltimate"-Tool? I read this was working on the Galaxy Spica...

It didn't work with smali/baksmali for me, i was trying on some APK (Like the Keyboard APK of JPA, for using it on JPF).

[Q] Cannot access UMTS or service menu

I'm trying to get to the service menu to get to UMTS to remove the carrier lock but entering *#197328640# does not work, would downgrading my firmware to 4.3 get this option back? or is the service menu still avable (hidden)
Note 3 N9500LTE locked to EE (UK) stock unrooted on 4.4.2 base N9005XXUGNG1

OK I've found the answer...... the code for mine is *#0011# go to soft menu press back then soft menu again key input "Q" ok then key input "0000" ok wait a few seconds and the menu appears.

Dialer codes not working any more, due to root?

Rooted my S7E, and just noticed that the common Samsung dialer codes (as *#0*# or even *#06#) do no longer work!
When I enter them into the dialer nothing happens! I used them successfully before!
Only change is that I installed TWRP, root and Viper!
Do dialer codes work on your phone after root?

Yes, it works for me.

That's very strange. Root shouldn't affect those codes as they are generic for all devices.

For me this is also strange, I can't remember that this was the case anytime before I rooted an android device!
Anyone else with this problem?

Did you perhaps install the Google Phone application? I installed it and can't use dialer codes with it. If I switch back to the stock Samsung Phone application it works again.

another version of what?
another rom? i think this would fix it, but it would be interessting for me WHAT caused this behaviour !

I had this problem once. Factory reset did the trick for me

Solution to failed dialler codes
Boot into recovery using vol up+home button + power button.Then wipe cache in the recovery and reboot.I hope that solves it.

S7 Edge G935V
Yes My husband replaced the stock Rom on my rooted S7 G935v and the codes didn't work afterwards

maybe the feature was turned off during the root process. use a file browser with root permissions and navigate to the lowest level and go to-- /efs/carrier --then long press hidden menu and open it with a text editor. Using capital letters just change the OFF to ON then save it, reboot and try your codes again. :highfive:

I can't find the folder /carrier

Same thing here

try using the search feature in file browser. make sure it has root access with permissions granted.

Check this no folder named carrier at all

I see that. Do you use the stock rom? See if you have the actual apk file in your system apps
if you don't have the apk file I think I can send mine. I'm pretty sure if you manually inset the apk in the system folder and change the permissions to match what the other apps in the folder have it should work. I mean you may have to create a couple other files though like the carrier folder and the document in it.

[Guide] About cannot click into Developer Options - Solution

There are some ROMs cannot click into Developer Options and then the app stops responding.
These ROMs have been updated for several times but the problem still not be solved.
Here is one of the solutions for you:
1. Download the ROM you want.
2. Double click it and click into "system".
3. Copy "Build.prop" to desktop or another folder you prefer.
4. Open "Build.prop" you copied with "notepad.exe", find and delete the following words and then save the file:
"ro.frp.pst=/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/config"
5. Replace the original file "Build.prop" with the one you revised just now.
6. Flash the new ROM as normal, finally you will find that you can go into Developer Options successfully !

Or you could just edit build.prop right from your devic without a root enabled file browser. And instead of deleting the string you can put a # between so#ro and reboot and the problem is solved and it's much simpler.

Use Something like "Build Prop Editor", its 57.45 times easier

“Build Prop Editor” also needs to use after root.
It seems that no apps can edit build.prop without root.

Good day!
Anyone here uses Titanium Backup? The MENU button is missing, I tried using GravityBox to remap long-press "Recent" key, but it Menu option seems to be disabled.

Yeah, that's annoying. If you need to access preferences, you can just click on the Problems? button in the lower right corner and then select Preferences. If you really need to access the menu I suggest downloading Button Mapper from Play Store. Just keep in mind that some functions require you to buy the full version.

I had the same problem, I solved it by using Xposed mod called "3dot Mod" which forces the Menu button like this:

I'll try this one out. but IMO If it's remapper, it won't work I think. The reason is that even GravityBox's own remapper doesn't work, I've tried remap long-press action to "menu" option in GravityBox, but it just activate the "multitask recent"

As far as I know, no

Same situation. Tap on 'problems' and select preferences. This is a good workaround

Why so complicated??
