Detailed Notes for Samsung
Samsung SGH 100 and all other
*#06# - Displaying IMEI
*#9999# - Displaying firmware version
Displays firmware version.
*#9998# - Displaying configuration version
Displays phone configuration version.
The
versions differ in e.g. number of languages and number of known GSM network
operators.
*#9997# - Self test
Activates all segments of display and starts to ring. This function can be
interrupted by pressing any key.
*#9993# - Engineering functions
Unblocks the Engineering functions. After entering this code, the new item -
Engineering functions - will be added into menu. This item has two submenus:
Revisions, where you can get the same information as by using codes 9999 and
9998 and Cell Info with information on cells. For more information, see
Network monitoring. Item Engineering functions is available until switching
off the phone.
*#9990# - Battery Monitor
Battery test. The meaning of the first line is not yet known, unfortunately.
C98 - remaining capacity of accumulator in percent
M1599955 - Counter of relative time remaining until discharge of battery in
10ths of second.
31 - temperature of accumulator
68 - voltage of accumulator [V*10]
TIMER - counter of charging/discharging time in seconds
It is quite difficult to finish the test, because monitor is permanently
overlapping normal display contents. The easiest way is to switch off the
phone. However you can press the CLR button for 1 second, enter *#9990# and
press the CLR again.
*#9000# - SIM Lock
Makes the phone refuse every other card then the one presently active. You
can enter the card exchange password. WARNING ! The asterisks are displayed
while entering password and no verification is required. In case of
mistyping the password you probably won't be able to deactivate this
feature. Phone will block itself with message Phone is blocked after 10
wrong password entries. Reactivation is very difficult.
*#9001# - Group SIM Lock
This function has not been investigated yet and requires a special SIM card.
WARNING ! The asterisks are displayed while entering password and no
verification is required. In case of mistyping the password you probably
won't be able to deactivate this feature. Phone will block itself with
message Phone is blocked after 10 wrong password entries. Reactivation is
very difficult.
*#9002# - Operator SIM Lock
This function has not been investigated yet and requires a special SIM card.
WARNING ! The asterisks are displayed while entering password and no
verification is required. In case of mistyping the password you probably
won't be able to deactivate this feature. Phone will block itself with
message Phone is blocked after 10 wrong password entries. Reactivation is
very difficult.
*#9003# - Network SIM Lock
Makes the phone refuse SIM card of any other operators. The password is to
be entered during activation, which is than required to disable this feature
or while trying to use SIM card of another operator. Most phones sold at a
discounted price may be protected by this password. WARNING ! Do not try to
remove this protection, the phone will block itself with message Phone is
blocked after 10 invalid entries. Reactivation is very difficult.
Networking Monitoring
The phone saves the information on the actual and maximally six others
cells, it can use in case of need. Information on each cell is divided into
2 display pages, giving a total of 14 pages of information. After entering
*#9993#, go to menu and choose Engineering functions and Cell Info. The
first page of information on actual cell will appear on the display. You can
switch between pages using either arrows or by pressing numbers 0..6.
FCN - channel number
RXl - intensity of signal in dBm
Cl - Value in dBm remaining until the phone change actual cell (if any)
SC - terminal is synchronized with data-flow of the cell
GLn - type of GSM-network (GL1 for GSM Phase 1 and GL2 for GSM Phase 2)
IDL - status of terminal
IDL - (IDLE) Idle
SER - (SEARCH) Searching for the cell...
ASS - (ASS..?) The connection with the cell is being established (before
communication)
DED - (DEDICATED) terminal is communicating with the cell
RXa - defined extreme value of intensity of signal in dBm of usability of
the cell
TXp - VF output power used for the first initialization of the connection in
PL units
BC - Broadcast Code - code used to distinguish the cells sharing the same
channel. It is used for synchronization of encoding and decoding too.
NC - National Code - code used to distinguish the networks using the same
channel. Most important near the network-borders
Cnnnnn - identification number of the cell (dec.)
Hnn - number of handovers (cell changes during the connection) since
switching on the phone
fnn - number of unsuccessful handovers since switching on the phone
1 - (in lower left corner) - number of backup cell
NC - terminal is not connected with this cell (just monitoring incoming
signal)
SYNC - the cell is in the area, where terminal is now registered in
(otherwise nothing is displayed)
Meanings of other abbreviations are the same, as on the actual cell.
Contents of information on other cells are the same, except the number in
lower left corner, which is the cell number.
Above pages contains information on currently active communication and are
available only during connection. During connection, press right button
MENU, up arrow (the item Active Info) will appear on the display) and press
right button MENU again. There are 14 more pages after these two ones, as
described above.
RX - level of incoming signal in dBm
RQ - quality of connection - number of incorrect bits received (see the
table)
hp- - not investigated yet
ci+ - not investigated yet
rlfnn - not investigated yet
TA - approximate distance of the cell in meters (multiply the value here by
547)
PA - actual VF output power in PL units (see the conversion table)
BnnDnn - not investigated yet
atn - number of used timeslot (0..7 in GSM Phase 1 and 0..15 in GSM Phase 2)
tsn - Broadcast Code (see above) |
