Bypass Activation Screen?? - Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I am trying to find a way to bypass "Activate Device" screen.. Many other devices have ways of activating via wifi...how about the note 5?? Any advice would be awesome!

Take the Sim card out and just select use wifi? Can you share a pic if that doesn't work?

I think there's a tutorial to tell you how to do this long time ago. Including samsung account or google account. Try to look up here.

How to? VERIZON GALAXY TAB SCH-I800 Diag mode (QPST/QXDM/CDMA Workshop)

DOES ANY KNOW HOW TO PUT THIS DEVICE ON DIAG MODE.
CHECKED Settings - Wireless Networks - Click to Dialup Networking THIS OPTION IS NOT THERE, ALSO Diag/Testing Mode
*#4636*1111# DOES NOT WORK..
try **usbui on the dialer, it works for fascinate so it's worth a shot
I tried that but it did not work, I believe mainly because verizon removed the dialer from it, I had to instal a version ported from the fascinate I'll just keep trying because verizon went out of their way to make sure we dont use it as a phone but all the necesesary hardware is included on the tablet...

do you have a link to the dialer?
this is how i got the tablet to go in diagnostic mode. downloaded launcher pro from the marker, add hold to add shortcut on the screen go to activities then phoneutil and then phoneutil and select it. then make sure UART AND USB have the modem select it and that's it. now we just need the 16 digit password so we can play with qpst.. I tried most of the known passwords on cdma workshop but none of them worked..

Uh even easier method to enter diag.
Go to to notes, In the search type
**usbui [**87284]
Thanks. Your **87284 (search) method was great. How do we find out the 16-digit password for CDMA Workshop?
Anyone? I tried all 101 Samsung ones, but they all fail.
Do you have a Verizon Tab firmware? My tab gets down.
It can only got into "Download mode" after I flashed it with Euro and Asian Firmware.
I'm very very worried about it.
Help me.

qualcomm
Hi guys,
Thanks for the useful hints about the diagnostic interface.
Is there a Qualcomm chip in your Galaxy Tab, since you can use the QXDM interface? In my case there appears an unrecognized "7 CDCs" device.
I applied your descriptions also to the Galaxy S+ (Qualcomm chip) and could open a QXDM connection. Unfortunately the device doesn't answer.
Thanks,

How to disable lockscreen password? Version 4.0.3

I made the the mistake of activating the lockscreen password feature of my Galaxy Note and now I can't seem to deactivate the feature. When trying to turn off screen lock password under the security menu - you will see in the screenshot that it "deactivate" option is greyed out.
Anyone know why its like this? How to go around this problem? By the way, I am using ICS Version 4.0.3.

Nope its not a custom ROM. I'm using the official update from Samsung.
setting - security - screen lock - select None
Edit : sorry just now seen screenshot, its not available for you.
are using any password storage appl n deleted it?
I think wiping can solve this, but not advisable on ICS.
have you tried changing the option ? Like selecting Pin Number, Then see if 'None' becomes selectable ?
Sure is strange

Hi,
If you go to the samsungdive.com website and register your device, you will be able to reset any activation priorly set with the remote 'unlock screen' feature.

Same happened to me, not sure whether you've had solved yours.
Anyway, go to Setting<Security<Clear credentials
i know this is an old post, but i faced somewhat of a similar problem. couldnt select any option but pin and password, everything else was greyed out.
go to settings---->security---->clear credentials (at the very bottom)
its caused by some certificate which doesnt let u remove lockscreen. hope it helps.

Wife forgot password anyway around it besides hard reset?

Phone is completely stock. Is there any utilities to get pass the lock screen password? Can the carrier unlock it or Samsung without wiping it out?
Thanks in advance.

Think I've read somewhere that's it's possible via adb, but you'd need usb debugging to have been previously enabled before you got locked out.
That's all I got as a possibility....

Thanks for the reply. Unless usb debugging is checked by default, I'm 99% sure she did not check it.

I don't see it happening I your case. It's kind of the whole reason behind a lock code. Factory reset is going to be your only hope.

I dont know if things have changed. but before if you kept failing. eventually It would ask you if you forgot your password. Then you would it would email your gmail mail account with a link and instructions to unlock your phone.

We've tried so many times and it hasn't prompted us forgot password questions.
I see under the stock recovery you can still side load through adb.

I thought I would post what I think was the problem in case someone else has the issue. I think it is Gmail verification feature. It maybe possible if you forget your phone password, you can use the Gmail email password to get in as mention on some of the post? AT&T also said she should be able to unlock phone with Gmail password. Details below.
Phone has been reset a few days from posting this. Good thing pictures are syncing with Google Drive.
I believe the problem why the password would not work is because of Google's verify feature on Gmail. For example when you go on to another computer and try to access your gmail, it will ask for a verification code and send you a text with the verification code. I believe this was the problem because once the phone was hard reset, the phone would not accept her Gmail account password. After diagnosing this issue, I decided to try to disable the verification feature on Gmail. Once it was disabled, I was able to get past the Gmail password issue.
To avoid from this happening again I put Androidlost which will allow me unlock the phone remotely. Great App especially being free. My wife doesn't want the phone rooted so this is the best solution for me plus I been using this App since the Galaxy S2 was released and never had an issue with the App. I actually had the app installed before she got locked out but never finish registering the phone, yeah that sucked. Lesson learned the hard way.
Thanks everyone who tried helping.
If u have linked your phone with android device manager you can simply change the password to whatever you want on android device manager on your desktop.

GG Safety Assistance

Hey guys,So I just got my Galaxy Gear today and Ive read around and even Samsung's own manual says there is this Safety Assistance where you hit the power button 3 times and it will take a picture with GPS and send it to you emergency contact. The manual says to enable it under settings then safety assistance. But under my settings in gear manager there is no such setting. I contacted Samsung and they can't find where it even says in the manual. Did this feature get removed,or am I just missing something?
Im including the link to Samsung's site and its on PG.35 of the manual.

I was told that it was pulled last minute. When I insisted they looked at the manual and page number they said that their manual did not show that and there manual was newer so it meant the feature was pulled.

My Gear and my new Gear 2 both have the option. My wife's does not. I think the issue is the rom you are running. My wife's Note 3 is running the stock T-mobile rom and she does not have the opinion. I upgraded to an international rom (to get rid of the t-mobile crap on my phone, most specifically the block they put on the tethering) and a side effect is I now have the Safety Assistance option.
Just figured I would let you know, incase you were interested,

Is it possible to obtain the app for that? Like if you open wondershare on a pc, do you see it there? If so back it up, and upload it please.

The app wouldn't do any good unless you had the option in Gear Manager to turn it off and on, and to set an emergency contact for the app to message.
Perhaps there is a way to inject/mock the version of the rom to allow the option in Gear Manager so the option/ability is enabled.

Fingerprint account

Hello all,
Just wondering if there is anyway to create a different account base on the fingerprint.
Someone suggested kids mode but it does not work well.
I was wondering If there's an app that can do this. When ever my daughter gets on my phone and she puts in her fingerprint it opens up to her account without giving her access to my work email, apps, or work pictures.
Thank you
