140+ latest secret codes for Android phones!

140+ latest secret codes for Android phones!

Secret Codes are an integral part of all smartphones, and they are used mainly to test the functions of the phone. With them, you can find out what your phone is hiding or what it can do, what it has from the sensors, whether everything works from the hardware, etc.

These secret codes vary depending on the phone brand, model, and sometimes the network. In this article, you can find a list of over 140 secret codes for Android phones grouped by phone brands.

Keep in mind that some may not work, but also that you do everything at your own risk. I, and anyone else, am not responsible if any damage to the phone occurs due to the use of the information in this article. Before typing any code, you can check on Google if it still appears somewhere and thus confirms its accuracy.

It would be good to write down the codes you need for the phone you want to buy, especially if you are buying a used phone. I also wrote a special article on how to prepare for buying a used phone, so read on.

How to change IMEI number on Android phone?

IMEI is an abbreviation of "international mobile equipment identity" and each mobile phone should have a unique IMEI number. You cannot change this number with the operator, but you can temporarily change it on your device. It allows the operator to accurately identify your device and thus enable/disable network services. Also, you can use the possibility of changing the IMEI number, at least for a short time, if you know exactly what you want, but I leave those ideas to you because this is an educational article.

Self-destructive email
