*#6110# Try this code if the above code doen't work.

#746025625# [*#sim0clock#]
Checks if the sim clock can be stopped. Sim clock stop is a kind of stand-by mode which will save battery time. This code doesn't work with software version 4.59.

*#92702689# [*#war0anty#]
You don't need the warranty-codes any more - you can just scroll through the information like in any other menu. It has the the same data as 81xx and 31xx phones (with "Edit" button for purchase date, and "User data transfer").






These codes work very well, but we are not responsible if there's any issue using this.
