Every Android user is an explorer. They love to explore every nook and cranny of their beloved devices. This is why we share a fascination with the Android secret codes and hidden secret menus.
We are going to list a ton of dialer codes that will do just about everything you can think of regarding Android diagnostics. Manufacturers don’t want certain options available to the normal users, and frankly, that’s a good idea. But if you want more control and power over your Android, read on and try some of these great Android secret codes.
Smartphone manufacturers tend to keep the technical stuff away from the common users. They don’t want to confuse or overburden normal people with a bucket load of options. Thankfully, both Android OS developers and smartphone manufacturers tend to keep hidden menus accessible via dialer codes.
There are some codes that are universal and are supported by almost any Android smartphone.
Some of the dialer codes are exclusive to manufacturers and may not work on all models for all carriers.
I’ll be listing them all in separate sections, so if you want to get codes that work on Samsung devices, you can just get over to that section and start having fun.
I’ll be listing them all in separate sections, so if you want to get codes that work on Samsung devices, you can just get over to that section and start having fun.
A point to be noted here is that some of the codes are a bit extreme. Some of them wipe your entire smartphone and factory reset it, so be cautious while inputting them. Read the description and then go on a code entering spree. That being said, let’s start with some great Android secret codes, hidden menu and dialer codes.
