Android is one of the best and most widely used mobile OSes on cell phones today. Founded by Andy Rubin, Rich Miner, Nick Sears and Chris White in Palo Alto, California; it has come a long way in development. They originally wanted to develop software for cameras, but after realizing that cameras do not have a very large market, they went on secretly developing “Android” – an OS that would rival Symbian and Windows Mobile. “We wanted smarter mobile devices that are more aware of its owner’s location and preferences,” Andy Rubin said, when he came up with the idea of Android.
On August 17th 2005, Google acquired Android Inc., and from then on it was all “uphill” for Rubin, Miner & White. Back then, no one knew whether or not Google was going to enter the mobile market with this move. Since 2008, Android has seen numerous updates (Alpha 1.0, Beta 1.1, Cupcake 1.5, Donut 1.6, Éclair 2.0 – 2.1, Froyo 2.2 – 2.2.3, Gingerbread 2.3 – 2.3.7, Honeycomb 3.0 – 3.2.6, Ice Cream Sandwich 4.0 – 4.3.1, Jelly Bean 4.1 – 4.3.1, Kitkat 4.4 – 4.4.4, Lollipop 5.0 – 5.0.2) and with these updates, they have embedded some commands that experienced Android users or people with basic technical Android knowledge can tweak and play around with. Below is the list of codes (NOTE: they are general codes and they should work with most Android phones, however, they may NOT work with Android’s latest update, Lollipop):

Lulz
You cannot use any of these to hack, Google is not stupid enough to do that
Ulan ne beleşçi adamsın
Birde utanmadan soruyorsun
wow sure is easier then using an app to tell me my bluetooth address.
Where do we enter these codes as in what screen
On your dial pad.
On your dial pad
Where do those codes get entered?
Dialer
Phone Number Pad
Where do these codes go? I tried the dialer but that didn’t work.
For all who do not know, these are typed in on a dial pad
How can i get internet with out paying
For service on my fone its a Samsung
From cricket wireless?
Your an idiot
*you’re
ha
Go into your wi-fi and connect to an open wifi.
Where, I live in Atlanta and I’ve yet to find any open wifis. Just ones you have to buy things for to get limited access.
gtfo you idiot
You type the codes where you world normally dial numbers to call.
You type the codes where you would normally type phone numbers.
Instructions unclear. I fell out of a window.
Lulz to funny i stopped at the green light to laugh
Oh, you were driving!
No godmode? No unlimited weapons?
How disappointing…
How do I spawn a tank
How do I spawn the monster truck? No Rocket Launcher?
Están muy buenos los códigos aunq encontré algo oculto en ellos
I wonder if any of this works with Cyanogenmod?
Whats an Android
We now have to type in fucking cheat codes to let us see our IMEI number? are you serious
Can’t use on USCC- “feature unavailable”
What blackberry such codes
How do I disable cameras and microphones from remote access as well as disabling apps from gaining access too my phone. Thus restricting the apps permissions ie. Facebook app. I’m not a fan of being monitored but I don’t want to give up owning an android or using my apps. I know basics of writing software but this is over my head. If a programmer could contact me and give me some guidelines that would wonderful.
How do I go about finding my PUC?
It will be on the sim card packet
These are not the droids you are looking for.
Amazingly we have to learn hacking
Where I write those codes?
Type the codes in as if you were going to call some one
Type the codes as if it was a phone number on your calling app
Most of these codes don’t work with Custom ROMS
Ah I see
Pretty nice because the *#06# works also on Nokia . But the *#0000# don’t work on Android but on nokia.
