SCH-R451C Hidden Menu's (Straight Talk Phone)

[RobNJ74]

I found 3 hidden menu's that I haven't found posted on here so I'll go ahead and let you guys know where they are.

1: OK, Left or Directional Key till you highlight Messages, * This asks for a Lock Code. (No further testing done as to not fubar my phone.).

2: OK, Left or Right Directional Key till you highlight Browser Settings, * Enter the last 4 of your phone number or your lock code. This brings up the Primary DNS, Secondary DNS, Proxy address, and Common Settings

3. OK, Left or Right Directional Key till you highlight settings, #, then 000000 for the code, and System Info screen is visable. Show the Debug Screen, Test Calls, Voice SO, Port Map, Throughput Test, Bluetooth, Force Mode, DUN Mode, and Security. (edit: pushing the # in this menu asks for a 10 Digit User Lock Code)

Hopefully this info can help someone, if it's already been posted elsewhere I appologize.

this didn't work for me... any of them.

[RobNJ74]

Works for me.. Did you push the OK button till you saw the Prepaid screen? And then used the directional keys from there? Another thing to try would be going under security and resetting the phone first.

After a little experimenting I have learned that once you have access to the hidden menu's you can also access the FTM area using the same code as the R450 in the "Hacker's Manual". I would suggest downloading it for reference and pay attention to all it's warnings.

As previously mentioned to access the hidden menu's you will need to go into Phone Settings then Security (enter the last 4 digits of your phone number) then click on Reset Phone. If you don't do that step you will not be able to access the hidden menu's.

[RobNJ74]

How did you get the codes, Rob? Thanks.

[RobNJ74]

The 10 digit User Code is in the "Hacker's Manual" which is posted elsewhere on the forum, and the 6 digit code well I got that one from playing basically.

I own this phone and I have to ask, What are the advantages/disadvantages of knowing these codes?! Looks to me like its stuff that if you change it, the phone could be brick and why would anyone wanna do that? just curious

[RobNJ74]

Forgot to note that once you enter the 10 digit User Code your taken to the Param Editor, SysInfo Editor and UserPrefs Editor. I have yet to find the Service Programming Menu......

I own this phone, and have absolutely no idea on how these hidden menu's could help me. Are you saying you could change the provider ?
