I found this out while messing with the phone. If you push down ** down down you have a lisst of the hardware specs but not only that you can format the whole thing. Instead of the memory and images. This does a whole format. Let me know what you guys think

LOL I don't understand a word of that. You have to GO to the keypad or virtual keypad. Then push down ** down down. Have a look

Well, ok, just so you would now, thats the secret plays thats sorta not a secret here anymore 😊 You can access hidden stuff like, yes, format the entire disk commans 😊 Thanks for the info though 😊

I tried it and got the following screen capture. Is this what you got? Didn't dare go any further with it. Can you go further without doing anything drastic?

yeah who's good. 😃 Thats the unlocking screen. That picture that you sent it showes that your phone is unlocked. Can't remember for the life of me what I did after that screen. But it allowed me to do something else. I got rid of the phone now. Cause it was faulty but if I get hold of it again I'll let you know.
