Iphone Secrete Codes

1. IMEI Number | Code: *#06#
 
The International Mobile Equipment Identity number is a 15-digit code that uniquely identifies your iPhone within GSM, UTMS and all other mobile phone networks. It’s always printed on your iPhone’s original delivery box and is required in the unfortunate case that your iOS device is lost or stolen. IMEI is required when filling a complaint to the police and when addressing the insurance company. This identification number can be also found in Settings -> General -> About.



2. Field Test | Code: *3001#12345#* + ‘Call’
 
By accessing the hidden iPhone field test mode you’re able to find out live updated information about your cell phone network. You can uncover the numerical value of your cell phone signal and read data about surrounding cell towers. If you tap on the numerical valued carrier signal, available in the top left corner of your screen, you can switch between graphic and numerical display. Numerical values are always negative. Figures around ‘-50’ are for optimal reception while those towards ‘-120’ are considered very poor.


3. Call Barring | Status: *#33# | Turn ON: *33*pin# | Turn OFF: #33*pin#
 
These secret codes help you to check the restriction status of all your outgoing calls, data usage, texts and so on. Call barring is used to protect yourself from accidental calls when you allow your child to play with your iPhone, for example. iOS currently doesn’t offer a menu Setting for blocking outgoing calls. You could partially solve the problem by turning on Airplane Mode. However, this can be turned back off easily by anyone. Instead use the above codes to block or unblock all outgoing calls. Replace ‘pin’ with your SIM card pin, NOT iPhone Passcode!


4. Call Waiting | Status: *#43# | Enable: *43# | Disable: #43#
 
This short code interrogates your device if Call Waiting is enabled or not. This setting allows you to be able to receive other calls while you’re already engaged in a conversation. The second and other callers will be cued in the waiting line. You’re notified with a sound alert when another call is waiting for you and have the option to decide if you wish to maintain the actual conversation, decline the new one or keep one of them on hold until you finish the other. Within iOS, call waiting is available in Settings -> Phone -> Call Waiting.


5. Call Forwarding | Status – All: *#21# – Unreachable: *#62# – When Busy: *#67# | Disable All Forwarding: ##002# + ‘Call’
 
Whenever you’re busy or on holiday you can redirect your calls to another colleague or family member. Use the nearby mentioned secret code and interrogate your iPhone about its current call forwarding settings. Besides voice data, you can also check out forwarding for data and faxes. Redirecting voice calls can be also set up from the iOS Settings -> Phone -> Call Forwarding. Use the other codes to check call forwarding status, when phone is out of reach or when busy.


6. Outgoing Call Anonymity | Status: *#31# + | Current Call: #31#phone-number + ‘Call’
 
When initiating and outgoing call you have the option to make your phone number available for the receiving caller or to hide it. Anonymity status can be checked with the first of the first code provided above. To initiate an anonymous call you can either edit your contact or directly use your iPhone keypad to add the #31# code in front of the dialed phone number. Else, if you wish to hide your number in all outgoing calls, visit the iOS Settings -> Phone -> Show My Caller ID menu.


7.Incoming Call Presentation | Status: *#30# + ‘Call’: shows if your iPhone will display the number of incoming calls.

8. SMS Message Center Number | Check: *#5005*7672# + ‘Call’: get your carrier’s text message center number.

9. EFR Mode | Code: *3370# + ‘Call’: Enhanced Full Rate is a speech codding standard that improves voice quality for GSM conversations. It also burns a little more battery life. (not available on all networks.)

More Pics of Android-Powered BlackBerry Leak


Rumors of BlackBerry working on an Android-powered handset have been swirling for months. And now, the Web is abuzz with all new images claiming to show the device in action.

Vietnam-based news outlet Tinhte showed even more of the leaker's photos on its site, including the device's rough backplate, which is seemingly designed to make it easier to hold. Another photo reveals a slide-out keyboard that bulks up the handset compared to its virtual keyboard-based alternatives.

If the photos are real and BlackBerry finally launches an Android-based handset in the future, it would represent a significant moment for the company. BlackBerry's once-prominent business was built on the popularity of its hardware and software. Indeed, for years before the iPhone launched in 2007, BlackBerry devices were known as a "crackberry."

Podcast 471: The iOS 9 content-blocking reckoning is coming

oogle is about to make a tall router called the OnHub with *thirteen* antennas, not to mention a speaker, a ring of LEDs, and ZigBee support. Speaking of companies making stuff outside their normal comfort zone, the Apple Car! It's possibly being tested! The Guardian uncovered some amazing email evidence, although they did get one little tidbit wrong—because they don't use Macs.
But our biggest discussion this week is content blockers, coming soon to iOS 9. Glenn is testing a few already (look for an article on Macworld soon), and it's great news for users like us—and possibly really scary news for content creators like us. Everything is about to change...yes, again. That's baseball.

Apple vs. Google: Replacing Apple's stock iOS apps with Google apps

Google makes so many apps for iOS, we thought maybe we could live the Android life on our iPhones. And you know what? A Google life ain't always easy on iOS.

 

 

For about a year now, I’ve been joking that it’s entirely possible—if you want—to have the Android experience on an iOS device. Why not? While Apple keeps its own app offerings pretty strictly tied to its own devices (Apple Music being a forthcoming exception to the rule), Google is more willing to take customers wherever it can get them. Don’t have an Android phone? That’s fine: Google has an app for many of the things you already want to do on your iPhone, like email, instant messages, news, streaming music, and of course maps.
So I wondered: How well could I survive for one week just using Google apps on my iPhone?
Here were my ground rules: First, I would clear my phone of apps and shuffle the native, un-deletable stock iOS apps off into a folder. Then, I’d download all the Google apps I thought I might use in the course of my daily business. Then, just for fun, I decided that if I needed an app that wasn’t a Google product, I’d at least make sure it exists in the Google Play store for Android users. And if a Google app could replace a third-party app, I’d try to use the Google app instead.
The apps I downloaded: Google, Calendar, Chrome, Docs, Inbox, Maps, Google Play Books, Google Play Music, Google Play Newsstand, Google Photos, and (ahem) Google+.
What did I find out? Google works hard to provide alternatives. But it can’t—in part because of Apple’s rules—provide an entire ecosystem across iOS. Overall, some of the apps were pretty good. Some of the apps were merely OK. And one was Google+. (Suffice it to say: It wasn’t long before the Facebook and Twitter apps reappeared on my phone.)

Apple Watch sales strengthening, according to US retailer

Apple Watch
The news comes after Apple failed to report specific sales figures for its wearable, leaving some analysts to wonder openly whether the smartwatch has been a costly failure.
However, speaking with Fortune, Best Buy’s CEO Hubert Joly's categorically refuted that, claiming that "demand for Apple Watch has been so strong in the stores and online".
He added that the Apple Watch would be sold in all 1,050 of Best Buy’s main stores from September 4th, after the success of the initial launch in 300 outlets.
It marks a rare piece of good news for Apple when it comes to the watch.
Research earlier this summer suggested demand had nosedived by 90%, while component suppliers claimed that they were unlikely to reach break even volume on the parts they were producing on Apple's behalf.
Apple is not likely to say just how many watches it has sold, with CEO Tim Cook claiming that he does not wish to give the competition an unfair advantage.

samsung galaxy s6

 

 

 

 

Introduction

Choose one word to describe the Samsung Galaxy S6. Gorgeous. Powerful. Special. Different. Thank you. That will do. Galaxy S5 has only one of these under its belt and hint... it starts with a P.
The Samsung Galaxy S6 is not the next big thing. It's "project zero". The reboot. But was there really anything wrong with the S-line - the standard-setter, the home of the super droids? OK, design needed looking at for sure. But hey, other brands do facelifts - Samsung goes for a complete overhaul.
This must've been the message they wanted to send.
And if it means giving up the memory card slot, the removable battery and the waterproofing, so be it. That's part of the message too.
Anyway, the Galaxy S6 was redone from scratch and bids farewell to plastic. Glass and metal is a critically acclaimed combination. Another way of saying it is - depending on how upset you are with the missing card slot and sealed battery - they're copying Apple and Sony. Alright, memory, battery and waterproofing are easy things to get upset about, so let's see what the Samsung Galaxy S6 offers in exchange.
The new look is impressive and exciting and Samsung's trademark AMOLED is the perfect match. It's an immersive 5.1 incher of QHD resolution, for the amazing 577ppi - though "amazing" doesn't work for Samsung. They'll call it "the best ever" - and will be right. And that's just the beginning.
