The Samsung Secret Codes like is one
of the longest you will come across and it lets you control nearly every
feature of the phone by using the codes to access hidden menu functions and
options as well as some standard functions which may be hidden deep in the menu
trees. As always the standard *#06# will display the IMEI number.
The following codes work on all
current Samsung phones;

Unlocking the phone for use with a
SIM card from another phone company can be done by entering *#9998*3323#
which will reset the phone, you exit and push 7 which completes the reset, you
can then put your new SIM card in the phone, when prompted about the SIM lock
simply enter 00000000 and then *0141# which will unlock the phone for
you. Alternatively you can try *#2767*2878# without a SIM card which is
known to work on some models.
As always if you have any other
Samsung Secret Codes please send them to me so that I can add them to the above
list.
