Bhen you want to chec- codename of your phone, try to use one of these codes:
*#0000#, *#8888#, *#3110#, *#3710#, *#5180#, *#/180#, *#7110#, *#730#,

in 1+rd line of screen (it will be somethin li-e $/E"1).
2. Bhich $et,onitor (ersion can be acti(ated in my
phone I
Each proram described in pre(ious point allows you to acti(ate one of two $et,onitor
(ersions:
1. limited, includin tests from 1 to 19 (concernin cellular networ- only). !his
(ersion is usually called H)ield !estH or HOperator field testsH (or you ha(e to
enter 4D4 code to acti(ate it)
4. full, also includin phone (and sometimes /0, card) tests. 0t is called
HEnineerinH (or H'J% field testsH) and its acti(ation code is 4D1.
0 recommend you enable full (ersion of $et,onitor " you can always replace it
with a limited (ersion (by choosin test 4D4 in your phone). 0t doesn+t wor- in
re(erse direction (you cannot acti(ate full menu from within the phone " it doesn+t
accept test 4D1 when limited (ersion is acti(e< of course you can still use methods
described in pre(ious point).

A/,&%6/&>6/ phones:
#fter acti(ation you ain access to the new position (called H$et monitorH or H)ield
!estH) in main phone menu.
Bhen you enter this menu, you can type number of the test, which should be displayed
(1 to 19 in limited (ersion, hiher numbers in full (ersion " Ca9tin: "nterin- n95,er

the 29ll 6ersin :).
#fter pressin O@ the chosen test appears on screen (and its number is shown on the
top) in place of your networ- name&operator loo. 0f you enter incorrect test number,
$O !E/! appears on screen and the phone returns to the last correctly displayed test. 0f
entered number is reater than 426, 214 or *69, then 426 (or its multiple) is subtracted
and resultin menu number is displayed (for e=ample numbers 100 and 226 run test DD).
/ome test when accessed this way (by typin its number and pressin O@ to enter them
directly) modify its contents (details are described later, 0 call this H%0'E6!H menu

Kou can loo- at different tests by scrollin them usin up&down arrows (don+t worry "
this method doesn+t chane any settins in tests) " each -ey press mo(es you to the
ne=t&pre(ious a(ailable test. 0n some models (for e=ample in 2110) these -eys ha(e

Kou can return to the main screen with name&loo of your networ- by enterin 0 in this
menu.
0f you enter 0 as a test number and then add a number of a non"e=istin test (for
e=ample 24), your phone will act as when $et,onitor is acti(e (for e=ample
up&down arrows can be used to chane test number " you can chec- this in Men9
10). .nfortunately, in this case counters from Men9 10-72 don+t wor-. !ests chosen

Bith any test on screen, your phone doesn+t display some of the messaes (for e=ample.

the rule is a messae: +$ote: you ha(e acti(e di(erts+). Bhen you type a phone number
