Infamous 'Hidden Menu'

carlg · 04-19-2007, 02:47 PM

I read on a recent thread of the availability of a 'hidden menu' that could be pulled up on the Q by typing in ##073887* and then typingin 000000 as an access code. Being a naturally curious person, I went ahead and entered the info, and sure enough several ambiguous menu items(most of which I am still too technically challenged to understand) appeared. My 'Q'uestion to anyone out there who's done this is: Is it of any benefit to a 'Qser' to even attempt to revise any of these settings, would such a revision make the 'Q Experience' any more fun, or would the device merely disintegrate in my hands?

Thanks, as always

That menu is what the salesperson at the store has to enter to program your phone number in and other settings such as the NAM, SID so that it will pick up whatever network you are subscribed to.
