Android Hidden Codes

During my time in a secret government agency called Girly Boy Squad, we were trained in several different ways to diagnose and test the hardware and software on Android. Since I was the top Girly Boy in the squad it was my job to know these secret codes that would get you in and out of hidden menus within Android. If you guys promise not to share any of this info with anyone else I’ll tell you everything that I know.

To enter these codes just pull up the default dialer app and use your chubby fingers to press the correct buttons.

The *#*#4636#*#* code is the most common one that people will use. There’s quite a bit of information you can pull up in this hidden menu. Here are some screenshots of what you should see once you punch in this code.
