USSD codes were developed to let carriers and technicians perform diagnostic testing and activations rapidly. You do not need to work for a cell carrier to utilize these codes. You may try them by entering them into the phone dialer menu and pressing the call button.
Not all carriers use identical codes for the same services. Some carriers may give particular functionality to codes that are unique to their network. Check the lists below to see which capabilities your carrier's USSD codes may access.
