At first i thought so but upon further research it is not unfortunality. it would be nice though to have a open p769 rom to see if we can unlock using that rom. when i tried a couple of open roms from the p760 and tryed to do the unlock myself sometimes it wouuld reboot other times i get a black screen upon rebooting. no matter what i do i get the black screen upon reboot most of the time

Did you press the volume up button when you get the black screen. The p768 models only see a black screen when they enter fastboot (from what I've heard).

No issue to me

I can't verify it atm but according ho published articles, one in many attempts will present you with an unlocked screen.
However no article I read elaborated on whether the issue is in the framework or lockscreen - so if it affecte the default lockscreen or any custom ones too.

It will unlock your phone and you have to reboot it for the ability to use the lock screen to come back.
I could reproduce this twice on my phone but not on a colleagues despite multiple attempts. Both UK unlocked, latest firmware.
Im running 4.2.1 leaked version and wasn't able to reproduce the bug.
It did crash my phone though
I've done this multiple times and I was unable to unlock my phone. I'm only able to see the home screen for a split second but then it goes back to the lock. I got different people to try and unlock the screen but to no avail.
Unrooted S3
same here , only shows home screen less than second , only thing you can do is click one applications but you won't even see it open. except you have quick dial widget on homescreen which will annoy your friend, that's all...

So a couple of things.
1.) you're describing the behavior when you've failed to activate the real bug. Yes it shows the home screen, but if you time things correctly, the lock doesn't come back up.
2.) Leave auto rotation on, and try landscape mode. I found it was easier to hit that way.
3.) Tapping home then power at the right time takes some practice. You may have to try multiple times.
I was trying to unlock with the settings I always have (no screen rotation,.5 animation, etc). Not going to enable them just to see IF someone can unlock my phone. Plus I took 20 mins to try and unlock it with an additional 15 mins from my Husband and that didn't do the trick. I'm not willing to try and spend hours testing to see if my luck finally kicks in

AW: galaxy s3 major bug, bypass lockscreen
Yeah, you did it wrong... Try it a few times, it'll work.... On all SIII's it'll work! If your homescreen appears 1 sec, you did it too slow!!

How fast are you supposed to do it then as I'm so fast sometimes it doesn't react at all.

Possible fix
It appears that this bug does not exist if you enable S-Voice by going into it's settings and checking the 'open via home key'. I was able to unlock 4 times on my GS3 while the 'open via home key' option was disabled. Once enabled, I have not been able to bypass unlock.

Yeah you must deactivate SVoice and then you must type in the wrong code until its locked for ten seconds... Then It'll work!!

Hi,
Samsung is really slow to react and push a fix on this case... On my opinion its a serious security issue and Samsung should react faster
You must be deodexed for this to work and on the most current ROM which is "AMDL" I suggest using Nottach's PRom found here.. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2258904
I have personally tested this on 3 different units all running the PRom with no issues at all...
If you are running a Rogers device and want this then PM me a copy of your deodexed android.policy.jar file and I will take a look at it. I only need one so I will delete this once I receive it....
Here is a quick mod I put together....It will give you the long menu press to kill feature as well as the extended reboot menu. You must have CWM or TWRP in order to install..Just go to recovery and install the zip...
Based on feedback below this mod doesn't seem to work with Rogers.. I will look into it and see what's up.
Flash at your own risk....
This has been tested on an att S4 with twrp/loki...
I also found this which works for increasing your volume..Just install the zip from recovery..this really increases the volume may be to loud for some..

That's what I'm on so you shouldn't have any issues..
For the rest that this is not working for it may be because you are not on att... All this is is a simple mod to the android policy jar file... I will look at it later to see what's up...

Also flashed the volume thing, worked fine all night but decided it was a tad too loud and flashed the revert back to stock settings. Phone in a boot loop.
Had to restore from a backup
Flashed it this am, but I don't see any change. I'm on ATT with TWRP.

So if you open an app and once opened you hold the menu button down the app should close and a little message is displayed saying killed:appname.
If you press the power button to turnoff or restart phone and you hit restart a new menu should pop up..this doesnt happen either????
are you odex or deodex??

Anyways you can add a Version that just had the four way reboot and not the long press menu? Or even better make long press back button to kill app rather than menu. I used long press menu for search alot
Works great for me. Thanks for a great mod. :good:
I am on AT&T odex'd with CWM auto loki.. Gonna flash again after back up! Really just want for reboot but kill button would be nice too. Also gonna try manually replacing policy.jar file.. Will update with results.
*UPDATE*
So manually replace policy file had no affect either. Well keep testing and report back.
My fiance can't access the play store on her P769. I forget what the error is, but she used to be able to access it. Her date and time is correct. It's rooted, but with the stock rom and kernel (I think the software version is P76920H).
Any ideas? Thanks!

Try to erase play store cache in settings. If it wouldn't help try to delete google account, and login again.

Rooted?
Go to Root Browser and navigate to System -> Etc, and find the "hosts" file. Delete it and reboot. That should fix it. You're welcome.

I haven't spent any time with her phone over the past month, but I'm working on it today. Since I first wrote, it lost it's ability to access data over the cell network, and won't connect to many wifi networks, either. I cleared data for Play Store and Play Services. I get a notification that it needs to update Play Services, but when I click on that, it goes to Play Store and says "No connection - Retry".
I want to wipe the phone and start new with a fresh ROM, but I can't remember how to reboot to Recovery. Holding volume-down while it powers up doesn't get me into Recovery. I'm not having much luck with Google on that, either.

Might have to do a factory reset and reroot it. I forgot the method on doing a factory reset. Something about holding a lot of buttons down.. check around, someone will tell you.

Just in case you haven't got it figured out yet. Power off phone. Turn back on and wait for the Lg logo to come on and when the bottom back lights start blinking hold the - volume button and it will go to recovery

Thanks! I didn't figure that out, but I managed to fix her phone (including wi-fi/data and Play Store) by re-flashing the stock ROM with the LGST tool. I remembered holding volume-down when powering up the phone from my HTC phones, but I guess you hold volume-down at a different point in the boot process with LG phones.
Its a LG Optimus 2x rooted, It goes directly into recovery mode and i've tried to install other rom's but it doesn't work it loads until 50% and then just stops. Touch screen or touch buttons also stopped working but the "real" buttons work power off/sound up/down. And the computerdoesnt reaconise the phone.

Well some people sometimes buy a device and it comes pre-rooted and for some reason they want to know the original root date well it's quite simple head over to your phone and dial 3845#*xxx# (where xxx is your model number), scroll down to LG RCT and touch Display Result there you have your status.

Another way: power off your phone, press Vol Up+Power this will enter Download mode.
in download mode you will see at the bottom if you are rooted you will see ROOTED in red

Instead of entering download mode, isn't it easier to download root checker apps from the play store?

the point of this is to know the original root date, some people actually would like to know this kind of info and it could be useful when buying a new phone
