    samsung hidden test menu:

    1. Open Phone app.
    2. Type #0#.
    3. choose a test, like Red, Green, Blue for screen checks, Touch for touchscreen, Sensor for proximity and other sensors.

    To leave a test, press back. Some tests require pressing back twice. It's very useful for spotting burn-in on AMOLED screens or a broken speaker. Some carrier variants don't support it. im about to throw this thing out the window lol

    the color tests are perfect for spotting AMOLED burn-in, especially on Red and Grey backgrounds. lmk how it goes

    been there man if a test gets stuck, pressing back a few times or using the power butotn to lock and unlock usually gets you out. worked for me anyway 馃し

    nothing is more permanent than a temporary workaround

    samsung Members app also has a 'Phone diagnostics' option, which is a more user-friendly official alternative. worked for me anyway 馃し

    hmmm avoid random codes from the internet. some Samsung codes can reset settings. #0# is a test menu only.
