[Q] Power(Home) and Phone(Call) key not working

I ported Android Froyo 2.2 into my Tilt 2 about 2 weeks ago and it was working perfectly and all of a sudden my Phone and Power/Home(key on top) stopped working. In addition, when I hold the End/Power key it only gives me the option to Power Off phone, when before it gave me options to silence/vibrate. I tried searching but no luck... any suggestions?

See this thread.
Kinda surprised you didn't find that searching...

Thanks but my phone doesn't seem to have the option of "Power button ends call" under Settings->Accessibility.

What version of android are you running? If it's Froyo, it should be in there.

Yup, running Android v2.2 Froyo: BLAZN. I tried the rootfs.img several times but that option never shows on my phone.

BLAZN has a very old version of Froyo. The Power Button Ends Call option isn't in the rootfs.img. It's in the system.ext2. You should be able to get the option by upgrading to a newer Froyo system.ext2 like FRX03.

Where can I find that version? I don't see it in the xdandroid download page.
I have the 2010_11_24 version.

Hmm...last version of XDAndroid's Froyo was released on 11/19 as per the xdandroid download page (bottom left under latest release). Where did you get this 11/24 version?

I got it from sites dot google dot com/site/androidport/downloads (I can't post links yet) and once installed I hit the update button which gave me the 11_24 update.

Ah, you're talking about Sovereign's update utility which is rolled into Reefer's packages. I can't say that I know a whole lot about that since I don't use it. There's a way to check within android however. Go to launcher and click on Settings. Next scroll all the way down to About phone and click on that. Finally, scroll down to Build number and post what it says for that.

August 13th...that's old... Download the Nov. 19th FRX3 system.ext2 from the link I gave you earlier. Replace the existing system.ext2 in your android boot directory with the new one. Then reboot.

Delete your data.img, boot again.

Phone boots now, Android is running great thanks. My Phone key works now, but my Power button and End key have the same function, which is End call/Lock/Shutdown. Still have no Home key. I tried the rootfs-f22-20101115-b6303c2.img and the Settings->Accessibility->"Power Button Ends Call" option and didn't work.

It's a TON easier to just use spare parts to remap end to home.
The other method is not so easy, until we get a startup.txt option to change it.

Power Options menu

Can anyone give me any idea which file has the calls that draws the power options screen? I've been pulling my hair out searching but for the life of me have had no luck. I want reboot to recovery and reboot to download options in the stock menu. If I can get anywhere with this I want to post it for others to have too if they would like to have it.

Thank you, I have an app already installed that will do what I am wanting already but I would rather have the capability within the Power options menu of the phone and not have to use an app. I had this ability on my last phone and would like to have it on the stock rom of my OG Pro.

You can try this instead =)

How to remove retail mode?

Hi,
I have a galaxy note 2014 edition that has retail mode on, it was a demo ex. Is there anyway to remove this from the device? Maybe through factory reset with stock firmware or something? Have no idea how to do a factory reset with stock firmware if that works.

Hi,
To do a factory reset: Switch off the tablet.
Then power it up by pressing simultaneously and holding : Volume up + Home + Power
When in Recovery mode move the cursor with the volume key and execute with the power key.
Select Factory reset and execute it.

Hi,
OK, the first thing to know is which device you have: Sm-P600/601/605 ??
Then to know which ROM is installed on the tablet ?
If you can go to setting : then scroll down to "About the phone" you should see the version of the ROM.
With that you go to sammobile
You put your device type and you will get all the stock ROM's
You click on the one you want and on the next windows you will have the URL to download and the way to install it.
To be able to download the ROM you have to register on this site but it's free of charge !!

Its a SM-P600,
Kernel Version: 3.4.39-1691324
Build Number: JSS15J.P600XXXUAMI8_LLK
I tried that site but canceled it cause it said it will take 15h to download the firmware.

You can try from HERE
But I am not sure it will be any faster.
Those ROM's are quite big > 1.xx Gb so if your internet connection is slow it's take time.

It seems to go a little bit faster today from sammobile. I have a 100/100 connection so it should go fast
Thanks for taking the time to help.

One more question, I can´t seem to set some kind of password for the lockscreen since the lock screen option is gone in some way. It says something about Knox but what is that?
Can i add some other app that handles the lock screen?

About Knox: it's some kind of security introduced by Samsung some months ago, a real pain in the back..
Have a look HERE (for example) for more details.
Yes you can install applications w/o problem.
Knox will only get involved when you start playing with the ROM's, Bootloader etc ..

Hi
Hello guys, I have an Galaxy S6 Edge Demo version, I want to know if I change the motherboard with another with GSM function, it will work fine ?
The digital finger print doesn't work, I have to change the button or how can I fix this ?
And another thing, in the background of display, you can barely notice a text, this : Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge, this thing is from display or motherboard ? Because I want to know, if I change the motherboard, it will dissapear that text ?
Thank you.

I would like to remove the starting screen ''Live demo unit'' on SM-T800X tablet to the stock one, and after flashing I have got the demo pieces of text in the bottom of the screen.
I tried to re-partition the install with ODIN and used a PIT file but no changes. Anybody can help with this problem please ? Is there any solution to change the demo unit to look as a stock SM-T800 ?
Also if there any solution to change KNOX value to 0 would be great.

Can you run a Full Bug Report and post a link (or send directly to me). The bug report should tell me where it is failing and also provide the URL for the OTA update.

How do I run this report? Sorry. I don't usually run into problems. Usually can find answers on my own.

I was able to see the update is showing Sept 5 patch which is weird because I already have it.

Try pulling down the update in safe mode. Hold power button and hold power off button on screen. That was support's recommendation to me.
