Android Secret Codes

Android secret codes and hacks are fun and even useful if you need to troubleshoot some problems on your phone, but they are not as impressive at most other phones since the phones can already do pretty much everything but there are still some codes which are not always general knowledge. Obviously these codes are not really secret and don't do anything amazing but since people commonly refer to them as secret codes it seems fair for me to do the same.

Entering these codes on android devices should work regardless of the hardware platform.
Code Function Description
*#06# IMEI Standard IMEI command if you are trying to find out what your Android devices IMEI number is
*#*#4636#*#* Testing Mode - Phone Setting Displays the hidden testing menu for android which provides details on application usage, battery health and status, Wifi information and general network information.
