Samsung Secret Codes & USSD Dial Codes (2026)
Galaxy secret codes & service menus
Samsung secret codes are short USSD and MMI sequences typed into the Galaxy dialer that open service menus normally reserved for engineers and repair technicians. Because One UI is built on top of Android, Samsung ships two layers of hidden tools: the standard Android MMI strings that work on almost every handset, and Samsung's own service mode menus such as the LCD test grid and the *#0011# network status screen.
In practice these codes let you confirm whether a fault is hardware or software before you pay for a repair. You can sweep the display for dead pixels, test each speaker and microphone channel, read raw battery voltage and temperature, check touch-screen digitiser accuracy, view the exact firmware build, and inspect the serving cell and signal strength your modem is actually locked to.
Dialling is deliberate: most Samsung sequences trigger the moment the last character is typed, so there is no confirmation step and no undo. That matters most for the reset family of codes, which begin wiping user data instantly. Treat anything labelled destructive on this page as a live command, not a menu, and take a full backup first.

How to use Samsung codes
- Open the Samsung Phone app and go to the keypad, exactly as if you were dialling a number.
- Type the code precisely as shown, including the leading
*and the trailing#. Autocorrect and paste can drop characters, so type it out. - Most sequences fire the moment the final character is entered — you usually do not press call.
- If the screen does not change, press the call button once; a few USSD strings need it.
- Back up photos, messages and app data before running anything marked destructive, then confirm you are on the right device.
- Nothing at all happening usually means the code is disabled on your firmware or blocked by your carrier — it is not a fault with your handset.
Samsung secret codes — FAQ
Apakah semua ponsel Samsung mendukung kode rahasia yang sama?
Tidak. Dukungan kode bergantung pada model, versi firmware, dan dalam banyak kasus, operator yang menyediakan ponsel tersebut. Model Samsung lama sering kali menyediakan akses ke lebih banyak menu servis dibandingkan model terbaru, karena produsen secara bertahap membatasi akses ke alat rekayasa hanya melalui aplikasi diagnostik yang ditandatangani secara digital. Jika suatu kode tidak memberikan respons, hampir bisa dipastikan kode tersebut telah dihapus atau dinonaktifkan pada versi sistem Anda, bukan karena salah diketik.
Apakah aman menggunakan kode rahasia Samsung?
Kode yang kami tandai sebagai "aman" hanya menampilkan informasi atau membuka menu pengujian yang hanya dapat dibaca, sehingga tidak dapat merusak ponsel Anda. Kode bertanda "hati-hati" mengubah pengaturan atau menjalankan prosedur perangkat keras yang perlu Anda pahami terlebih dahulu, sedangkan kode bertanda "destruktif" langsung menghapus data pengguna tanpa dialog konfirmasi. Selalu cadangkan data sebelum menjalankan apa pun dalam kategori destruktif.
Mengapa tidak terjadi apa-apa saat saya memasukkan kode?
Ada tiga alasan umum: kode tersebut tidak didukung oleh firmware Anda, operator jaringan Anda telah memblokir rangkaian kode USSD tersebut, atau aplikasi telepon mengharuskan Anda menekan tombol panggil untuk rangkaian kode itu. Coba kode tersebut dengan SIM lain atau dalam mode pesawat, dan pastikan setiap karakternya benar, termasuk tanda bintang di awal dan tanda pagar di akhir.
Apakah penggunaan kode-kode ini akan membatalkan garansi Samsung saya?
Sekadar membaca informasi diagnostik tidak membatalkan garansi. Namun, mengubah pengaturan pita frekuensi radio, menjalankan operasi penulisan di menu teknis, atau melakukan format pabrik dapat membuat perangkat Anda berada dalam kondisi yang mungkin dianggap pusat servis sebagai akibat tindakan pengguna. Gunakan hanya kode yang bersifat baca-saja, kecuali Anda mengikuti panduan perbaikan resmi.
Apakah kode ini bisa membuka kunci jaringan pada ponsel Samsung?
Tidak. Membuka kunci jaringan memerlukan kode pembuka kunci yang diterbitkan operator atau permintaan pembukaan kunci resmi melalui operator Anda. Situs mana pun yang menjanjikan kode panggilan universal gratis untuk membuka kunci berarti menyesatkan Anda. Kode yang tercantum di sini hanya menampilkan diagnostik, status jaringan, informasi perangkat tegar, dan prosedur pengaturan ulang pabrik.
Bagaimana cara menemukan IMEI pada perangkat Samsung saya?
Tekan *#06# pada ponsel GSM atau LTE apa pun, termasuk semua model Samsung, dan IMEI akan langsung muncul. Anda juga dapat memvalidasi nomor tersebut dengan pemeriksa IMEI kami, yang menjalankan perhitungan jumlah periksa Luhn yang digunakan GSMA untuk mendeteksi nomor IMEI yang salah ketik atau dibuat-buat.
