Help Entering Service Mode

I have attempted to enter the service mode via the dialer. Instead of actually entering the mode when I put a code in - *#0011# for example - it makes a call. I then get an invalid number message from Verizon.

I think I'm doing it right but if someone could describe the process I would appreciate it. Maybe the ability to do this went away with the update?

Any help is appreciated. Thanks
 
I have a AT&T version and it has the JB update.

This Service Code number still works on my phone.............try this

Thanks for the suggestion. I appreciate it. I input *#197328640#. It placed a call directly to Verizon without going into the service mode.

Apparently, Verizon has disabled that function with the newest update. I guess they want to protect me from my own phone. So glad that big brother is out there.
