How To Reach The Service Engineering Menu. New Code. *UPDATED*

So, I did a search and could not find this code posted anywhere else in the forums.

I typed in the code: *#197328640#

I am now able to access the service engineering menu. It has a different keypad with a list of a lot of different options. It is completely different from admin settings. If I am thinking correctly (and not just super excited for accessing this menu) we might be a step closer to more customization.

There are some options listed under "Base Band" in this menu. They are ISP Firmware Write and ISP Firmware Version Check. These might be worth checking out.

Also, if you go ito "Common" and then select "USB Settings" and change the setting from SAMSUNG USB to QUALCOMM USB, you can get a Mac running BitPim (Windows can run BitPim too) to recognize/connect to the com ports. Now all Mac users need to do is find a phone in the list of supported phones via BitPim that will trick the program into connectings and opening up the file system.

*UPDATE*
To view the filesystem in BitPim follow the instructions above. Run the Phone Select Wizard. Then select LG EnV in the phone selection wizard. Use the first comm port for connect. Then finish the wizrd. After that you will want to click on view>filesystem. The file system will appear in the sidebar area. Click on it and let it load (this will take about 2 minutes.) Voila!! Access to the Behold's filesystem on a Mac!

This update will be cross posted to another thread to get the info spread for Mac users.

I will update with any further information.

Very cool ill look into this code

This is the code for the root menu in the Samsung Eternity. I guess Samsung uses a lot of the same codes for similar modeled phones. I tried this code not thinking it would work, and voila! It did.

aight koo... lol guess i'll look at the options.. now all way need is sum1 really smart to maybe hack tht stuff... good catch hommie...
and for the record i wasn't downin you hommie i jus aint wanna mess my phone up is all

Wow this is awesome. Using bitpim I have found so much stuff internally now too. I found a folder labeled "Icons" with a TON of images in it that I have never seen before. I have also found a folder labeled themes (suggesting that maybe we can make our own?) I have found all of the different alert sounds. I just keep finding new stuff all the time. When I used TK on my PC I didn't really do any exploring but it looks like bitpim gives you a lot more info. People on windows should definitely download it and follow the instructions above.


I think I may have stumbled on to something a bit bigger than originally thought.

Im kinda new to this phone stuff, but when i got in and went to debug screen it says Anntenna Test(Setup/Test) is that wifi anntena? or the service anntena?

dude u get a COOKIE! lol this here is a awesome catch hommie

I am running on Mac OS X 10.4.11. I also have a PC running XP Pro. I use my Mac more often though.


Thanks for the cookie!
