Disable Sprint One-Click Carousel

Here are instructions on how to disable/enable Sprint One-Click Carousel which is on the Samsung Rant phones and probably many others:

Push in ##3282# as if it was a phone number (it is also ##DATA#).
Go down to *.XUI and turn it on/off using XUI on/off.

The phone will run much better with it disabled. Mine used to freeze ocassionally while one-click was fetching updates or something. This was especially annoying when I was pressing * back to unlock the phone and it would just sit there doing nothing for 45 seconds while I repeatedly entered * back, * back, * back.

  1. So what do you get instead of the carousel? And I guess you can get it back by doing the same thing. I have the Samsung Reclaim and while I like the phone I can't stand the carousel.

  2. When I do this it asks me to "Enter Service Code" what is the code?

  4. @Archer, YA ME TOO! And I asked Sprint what it was and they looked at me like I had 5 billion heades and they were like why the hell would you need that. So I told them and they said "Oh nononono you dont need to take that off your fine". To say I was mad would be an understatement. I stormed out. Is there any other way to find it out like a sprint service code genoratore or something???
