Sony Ericsson K750i - Hidden Test Menu

Suggested by: Joshua Barney 10 Feb 2009 Print version

Get your Sony Ericsson k750i to the Desktop (where the time, background, date, battery power, etc are shown) and press:

>*
<<*
<*

If you have default shortcuts, then this takes you on to the calender, but carry on. The result is a secret menu where you can carry out tests on your phone, and check the clock is accurate.

On the service menu select Service Info > Model Info, to see a pop up with the phone model, while the model is on screen press the keys 2, 4, 6, 8 in this sequence to see a message placed there by the developers.
