Nokia Codes Tips and Tricks

To check the IMEI (International Mobile Equipment Identity) Type*#06# Information you get from the IMEIXXXXXX XX XXXXXX X TAC FAC SNR SP TAC = Type approval code FAC = Final assembly code SNR = Serial number SP = Spare To check the phones Software revision type*#0000# Information you get from the Software revisionV 05.31 18-02-99 NSE-3 1ST Line = Software revision 2ND Line = The date of the software release 3RD Line = Phone type To enter the service menu type*#92702689# (*#WAR0ANTY#) Serial number (IMEI) Production date (MM/YY) Purchase date (MM/YY) You can only enter the date once. Date of last repair (0000=No repair) Transfer user data to another Nokia phone via Infra-Red Clock Stopping To check weather your SIM Card supports clock stopping type*#746025625# (*#SIM0CLOCK#)

Revealing the Headphone and Car-Kit menus Please note that if you do these next tricks, the new menus can't be erased without restoring the factory default settings. To do these tricks you need to short-circuit the pins on the bottom of the phone next to where you plug in you charger. 1. To activate the "Headset" menu, you need to short-circuit pins "3" and "4". After a short time the word "Headset" will be shown in the display. Menu 3-6 is now enabled. 2. To activate the "Car" menu, you need to short-circuit pins "4" and "5". After a short time the word "Car" will be shown in the display. Menu 3-7 is now enabled. THE REBOOT TRICK

This should work on all software versions of the 6110. 1. Go to the Calendar (Menu-8) 2. Make a note or reminder. 3. Enter some text into the edit box. 4. Hold "Clear" until the whole text is cleared, then press "Back". 5. Press "0". The main screen will now be showing but a space appears on the screen. (you can't see it) 6. Enter 4 digits (e.g. 1234). 7. Use the down arrow to move the cursor to the left side of the numbers and the space (Down arrow twice). 8. Now enter 6 digits and press the call button. Wait for a few seconds, the screen should start to flash and reboots. It should also work on other menus like the "Profiles" menu. EFR CALL QUALITY To activate EFR (Enhanced Full Rate) Enter the code*3370# This improves call quality but decreases battery life by about 5% To deactivate it, Enter the code#3370# THE JAMES BOND TRICK If you short-circuit the left middle and right pins on the bottom of the phone with all connections touching each other, the Nokia software hangs! The profile "Headset" will be activated. Before you do this just activate the "Automatic Answer" in the headset profile and set the ringing volume to "Mute". Now you can use your phone for checking out what people are talking about in a room. Just place it under a table in a room and call it. The phone receives the call without ringing and you can listen to what people are saying. NETWORK MONITOR There is a hidden menu inside your Nokia phone. If you want to activate it, you'll have to re-program some chips inside of your phone. 1. Check your software version. You can only continue if you have v4.33, v4.73 or v5.24. 2. Take apart the phone. 3. De-solder the EEPROM (ATMEL AT 24C64). 4. Read out the data with an EEPROM programmer and save it to a file (Backup). 5. If you have v.33 or v4.73, change the address "03B8" from "00" to "FF". 6. If you have v5.24 then change the address "0378" from "00" to "FF". 7. Write the new data to the EEPROM and solder it back to the phone, 8. Power on your phone and you should have "Netmonitor" enabled. The Network Monitor gives you the following information.

Carrier number MS RX Level in DBM Received signal quality MS TX power level C1 (Path loss criterion, used for cell selection and reselection). The range is -99 to 99.

Nokia Codes
Included below are a number of control codes that work for most nokia phones together with an explanation of what they do. As I'm sure you would expect I accept absolutely no responsibility what so ever for any damage caused to your phone. That having been said, the codes with the symbol mean I have tried them with no problem and in my opinion they will not make any permanent changes to your phone. At the bottom I've added a few tips on using the predictive text messaging that you may find useful. Provider Lock Status. (use the "*" button to obtain the "p,w" and "+" symbols) This is the lock most often used. Network Lock Status. (use the "*" button to obtain the "p,w" and "+" symbols) Country Lock Status. (use the "*" button to obtain the "p,w" and "+" symbols) Sim Card Lock Status. (use the "*" button to obtain the "p,w" and "+" symbols) *#0000# Displays your phones software version, 1st Line : Software Version, 2nd Line : Software Release Date, 3rd Line : Compression Type For checking the International Mobile Equipment Identity (IMEI Number) This is the number that the police recommend you make a note of in case your phone is stolen.

Activate Enhanced Full Rate Codec (EFR) Your phone uses the best sound quality but talktime is reduced by approx. 5% Deactivate Enhanced Full Rate Codec (EFR) Activate Half Rate Codec - Your phone uses a lower quality sound but you should gain approx 30% more Talk Time Deactivate Half Rate Codec Displays the Sim Clock status, if your phone supports this power saving feature "SIM Clock Stop Allowed", it means you will get the best standby time possible. No matter what anyone tells you this will not allow you to get free calls or text message. If your phone has this feature then it is already active. Removes operator logo on 3310 & 3330, i suggest you don't do this if you shelled out to buy your operator logo in the first place. The only other way to remove an operator logo is to get another one sent to you.

Apparently someone has the patent on games in mobile phones and Siemens didn't want to pay the licensing fees. It was either in Menu F-9-9 or it's not there at all.] Siemens S3 Comfort MONITOR MODE The Siemens S3 Com series have a Monitor mode that can be activated directly from the standard user keypad.
