hi guys,
i did look all over the forum and searched all google and still no solution any help would be great thanks alot in front,
the other voice of the person i am talking to is extremely low so i tried to update to the latest firmware and that is (XWLPM) 4.0.4.
but i still have the same problem as before, so i read that there is an service mode with extra options.
the thing is that i can get into service mode, and i dont get like other users error that says blocked or what ever.
and all the menu is working as it should be, but only number 5 in the menu and that is the "AUDIO" option that i need to access to change my volume.
when ever i press on option 5 "AUDIO" it send me back to the main menu,
Notes :
i tried accessing it by ("KEY INPUT" AND "Select") but with the same result.
i tried removing the battery, but still the same result.
please any help would be great.
ok quick way to increase volume to max is download lates siyah kernel and extweak then open extweaks then select music tab and increase volume to max !
Will try that . Thanks for the advice. But is the music volume the same as the earspeaker oe the earphone volume ?

To be able to access that menu you need an older radio. I flashed one from the GB roms: XXKH3
thanks a lot bkraptor, your advice worked and i can access the volume on that menu, but i changed it to maximum on every thing and still the same problem, i installed many apps like volume+ and equalizers but nothing works.
i was thinking is it possible that its a hardware problem ? but if the headphone is broken, why there is voice coming out ? shouldn't i be hearing nothing ?
i also had 4.0.4 LPT which has XXLQ6 modem , audio menu was not working, so i flashed XXKI3 modem, now it works!

Ok, I've been rooting and swapping rom's and stuff for a month so I'm obviously an expert (JK, not at all). If I understand you correctly, you flashed a GB Modem onto ICS right? This made option 5 available? Also, if you reboot does it reset values to default like it does on stock everything?

yes, i had ICS LPT build with 4.0.4, i flashed the old modem, audio menu working, enable WB-AMR (for HD voice) , all ok, and after a week i flashed a new version of the ROM , still LPT build , and the flasher also put LQ6 back on, so audio menu not working again, but WB-AMR remained enabled, so i don't need the audio menu now, so i stick with LQ6

How do you know that WB-AMR remained enabled without accessing the audio menu?
EDIT: Found that the ServiceMode shows the WB-AMR Status
this really works .... Change ur RADIO ...
i Switched to XXLPJ from xxlq6 ... now menu is unlocked..
i guess the blocked menu are related to RADIOS.... and they depend whether samsung allowed customization over certian Radios.

A bit late, but; how do I change the radio? My loudspeaker is very low, I barely hear it (headset, BT, microphone are OK). I cleaned it of dust, but it is very low. It is korean edition (SHW-250S) converted to i9100 and flashed with SlimBean RC1 4.2.1. It was also low volume when on stock korean.
Now I want to bump the volume via service menu, but the audio menu is blocked.
Do you think I should replace the loudspeaker?
Thanks!
Can someone put modem file for 2.3.6 XWKL1, baseband version DDKL1
edit: found it!!!

The first thing I would try would be doing a full wipe. I suppose you just flashed it on top of GB.

I did the same thing (flashed XXLPQ on top of GB), and I'm having the same problem. No lock screen/phone isn't going into sleep mode. Long-pressing the power button gives no options but simply turns off the phone. So I've decided to do a full wipe, but at the risk of sounding like a total noob, what do I need to do exactly? I've already gone through CWM Recovery mode, wiped all the data and user cache. Also did a factory reset. That brought the phone back to default settings, but yet still on ICS, with still the same problems. I reflashed ICS and still no good. Obviously I'm doing something wrong, but what do I do? I'm thinking I'm meant to revert back to GB, or maybe even back to the original stock build (though I didn't backup the ROM). But I'm also wondering how that would work without causing problems, since I'd be flashing an old GB build on top of ICS.
In short: I'm a noob and I don't know what to do. Please help!
Edit: I never lost the "NO" keystr file in my efs/imei folder.
Edit 2: FIXED! Both lock screen and power button options are back.
Despite having retained the keystr file, it was actually necessary to fix it up... Here's how I did it (make sure your device is rooted):
Download "Android Terminal Emulator" from the Play Store. Just open it and type in this code:
su
echo -n ON > /efs/imei/keystr
sync
reboot
Click to expand...

And that's it.
I have since turned off my phone and turned it back on and it is still working fine, so you shouldn't have any problems retaining the file upon reboots. I hope this solves your problem.

I installed Resurrection Remix 2.5.1 (ICS) yesterday with the CM9 Kernel. Everything works (i think) up until I tried making a phone call. I have no audio during phone calls (I can still make them, i just can't hear or be heard). Audio works in other apps, such as music and games. The mic works when i try to use voice commands. I reflashed RR 2.5.1 with again, and tried the Siyah Kernel, and again using fluxi Kernel. I've rebooted the phone a dozen times, still no luck.
I had this issue the last time i tried to use an ICS rom (i tried 3 or 4 different roms about 3 months ago, all had the same issue). I downgraded to a GB rom (Unleased)and the phone was fine.
Any ideas?
(Aslo is the hardware back button and search button supposed to be disabled in ICS?)
2.5.1 is an AOKP ROM so I would suggest that from GB you flash an ICS stock firmware via Odin to get the bootloader installed properly and then you will need to do a full-wipe(possibly format system/data/cache if it helps)and then install.AOKP if not installed properly over AOSP will cause problems.

The i9100 doesn't have a search button. The i9100 has a hardware home button, with a menu button on one side, and a back button on the other. This is the forum for the i9100...
If you really meant what you said about your phone having a search button, then I doubt you have an i9100. Check the label under your battery for model number.
EDIT to add; if you DO in fact have an i9100 and are just confused about the search/menu button... It sounds like you could also be describing an issue caused by a missing /efs/imei/keystr file. Do you also lack a power button menu, and the phone just shuts off if you hold the power button down? If so, are you missing that file?
If the answer is yes, make sure you are rooted, create an /efs/imei/keystr file containing the word ON.
Hmm. i didnt notice the AT&T version of the phone (the I777) had its own subforum. That's probably most of my issue, thanks for pointing it out.
Hi there!
A few hours ago i've install the Vanilla RootBOX rom, i have to say that everthing its fine and working with the exception of volume keys.
They do the animation on screen; Volumen up, down and vibrate, BUT physically the volume intensity stay the same.
I notice this the moment ill start to testing the music apps (Apollo) runs smoothly, but i cant turn the volume down, the same whit the other music player, Google Music and Walkman Player.
Does anyone have the same problem, ill already do the search and cant find anything. Any solutions?
Thanks!:good:
UPDATE
I notice that my Galaxy sII don't detect the earphones, this may have a connection with the other problem.
Please refer to my thread in my sig (the last one). It will help you to get proper answers.

Hi
I have a 4.0.3 france firmware installed samsung I9100G.But lately the no lockscreen problem (holding the power button will not bring the options and just shuts the phone off),ringtone and a few other problems started to annoy me really bad.
I'm thinking to install the 4.0.4 german firmware from samfirmware but how stable is it? is there any problem with the 4.0.4 or anything special i should know about it?
i have reflashed the 4.0.3 but those problems didnt go away.
thanks for any helps.
Go back to GB.For me that is more stable than ICS or JB.

If the firmware is official, it should be stable. So, your choice: or GB, or ICS.

updated to 4.0.4 but nothing changed.
ok here are the problems:
- The power button options are not showing up. if i hold the power button it just closes the phone directly.
- The screen lock doesnt work. Wont lock the screen with any option there.
- The sim lock doesnt work. If i put the sim lock on (put a lock on the sim) the phone starts normally but wont let me call or text. So i have to disable the lock on the sim to make it work normal.
Now these are the problems i have seen so far. When i got the phone it was GB and there was absolutely no prob until updating to ICS. So whats the suggestion, should i give a try on custom firmware ICS or go back to official GB? if you say custom firmware then which one?

It's always recommended to perform a factory reset after upgrading your phone software

For me the samsung stock roms are like windows o/s.
GB=xp
Ics=vista
Jb=w7
A crude comparison......but vista was a pile of crap.....

1. If your phone is not rooted, root.
2. Create file /efs/imei/keystr, containing the word ON.
3. Make sure the file has rw-r--r--, or 644 permissions.
4. ...
5. Profit!

ok thank you very much bro. that did it
i first rooted the phone from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1679778 with the option 2.
then used this little guide:
- Download "Terminal Emulator" app from market
- open it
- type into the command:
su
echo -n ON > /efs/imei/keystr
sync
Go to home, force close your terminal app, shut your screen off, and when your turn it back on your lock screen should? be there.
Obviously you must be rooted the "su" command
And for Signal Problem Simply do not put any pin on your sim ,,,
Hi I have a galsxy s2 gt-9100 that is running 4.0.3 (xxlp6) rooted and i want to change the audio setting as the in call volume is low. I have done allot of reading on this but have not get found a answer to this. I have entered the code to access the service menu and select option 5 which just says audio, but it just refreshes to the same menu.
I have tried a different kernel and the menu use to say audio is blocked.
Im stuck now any ideas would be most appreciated.

And you have already set the volume level to maximum in Sound settings?!
If that is not loud enough for you, try to flash latest SiyahKernel and increase the extra sound settings in STweaks app (which will automatically installed after flashing the kernel).
Maybe this can help.
Good luck !
am i right this kernel is only 6 mb in size??
i have flashed with obin but there is no change have i done something wrong?
You must change settings in STweaks.
Flashing kernel without changing settings will have no effect.
