Useful Codes

Here is some useful info from a so-called forum:

*#06# - displays International Mobile Equipment Identity (IMEI) number;
*#92702689# (*#WAR0ANTY#) - displays warranty information; to exit this mode you have to switch your phone off then on again;
*#7370925538# (*#RES0WALLET#) - resets wallet code with wallet contents;
*#2820# (*#BTA0#) - display BlueTooth Address for mobiles with Bluetooth;
*#7780# (*#RST0#) - normal reset, restore phone to factory defaults;
*#7370# (*#RES0#) - deep reset, restore phone to factory defaults and format all user data;
*#0000# - firmware version information;
*3370# (*EFR0#) - activates Enhanced Full Rate codec (EFR) (your phone uses the best sound quality but talk time is reduced by approx. 5%);
#3370# (#EFR0#) - deactivate Enhanced Full Rate codec (EFR);
*4720# (*HRA0#) - activate Half Rate codec (your phone uses a lower quality sound but you should gain approx. 30% more talk time);
#4720# (#HRA0#) - deactivate the Half Rate codec;
*#67705646# (*#OPR0LOGO#) - removes operator logo on some phones;

To format Symbian platform phone press simultaneously 'Green' + '3' + '*' and at the same time turn phone On. Be carefull, this operation will erase all phone contents! That operation is similair to deep reset code (*#7370#) function and its helpfull when you're not able to enter code from keyboard in cases when phone just won't startup.

Power Button Tip


If you press the button for a short moment, the menu with the profiles is shown on the display. If you press one more time, the mobile turns itself off. You can use the up and down cursor keys to scroll and enable a different alert setting.
The 54# Tip
Type 1#, 2#........54# on the keypad (when you're not in the menu) to get the phone number used for with this key when speed dialing.
Toggle Headset and Auto settings
#1: Try Connect the pin-out 1-2 (in front from the right.) to toggle headset settings (The phone will think that you ar using a headset - "headset" is displayed in the LCD)
#2:Try Connect the pin-out 2-3 (in front from the right.) to toggle auto settings (The phone will think that you are using it in the car - "auto" is displayed in the LCD)
Call Menu
(In a call) you can press and hold down the menu button for 3 sec. and a menu appears. (transfer, mute etc.)
Quick SMS Typing
When typing SMS messages, you have to wait some seconds before you can type the next letter if it is in the same button than the previous one. For example try to write the word "letter", you have to wait before you can enter the second "t". A much faster solution is to press the # button twice and then the letter "t".
The Reboot Trick
1. Go to calendar ( menu - 8 )
2. Make note / reminder
3. Enter some text into the edit box
4. Hold clear until whole text is cleared, then press back
5. Press 0. Main screen is shown but a space appears on the screen. You can't see it of course.
6. Enter 4 digits ( 1234 for example )
7. Use the down arrow to move the cursor to the left side of the numbers and the space (2 times down arrow)
8. Now enter 6 digits and press the green "Call button".
9. Wait some seconds..the phone will now flash the background light and finally reboot.

Soft Reset: *#7780#, 12345 and then Yes. (Also works on Nokia S40 phones, NOTE: On the 6230/6230b, same as going to the Factory Reset option under Settings!! Thanks to Tris for the headsup!!)

*#335738#

This deletes the Email, GPRS, MMS settings that cannot be erased via phone options. (Series 40 phones only)

Nokia 9300 (not confirmed) and Nokia 9500 (based on link below):

1. Turn off phone and take out battery
2. Insert battery, and while it boots up press and hold Ctrl + Shift + F

From here:
turn your mobile off
remove sim card
put battery back in

hold green call key, 3 key and * key, while holding them down power on your mobile.

this will reset your mobile completely, but should also reset the security code.

only do it on a fully charged battery

you will lose everything
