Motorola Secret Codes and Hacks

Motorola Secret codes use a pause in them which I will represent with ^ which means you need to hold * until a box appears, the codes will allow you to access the field test and engineering hidden menu locations on your Motorola device.

As always the standard *#06# can be used to display the IMEI number on the handset, the following codes are available from the phone line, changing the 1 to a 0 at the end of each line will reverse or disable the changes made using these Motorola secret codes.
