What follows is a collection of some of a
tip codes common to an Android
platform. All of these would be entered
by a phone dialer (just punch in a
method as shown). Since many dark
menus are manufacturer specific, there’s
no pledge that they’ll work opposite all
Android smartphones, yet we
can try
them out but on your Samsung, HTC,
Motorola, Sony and other devices. Be
advised, though, that some of these can
mean critical changes to your device’s
configuration, so don’t play with
something that we don’t entirely
understand.
