[Tutorial] iPhone secret number tutorial [pictures included] - skyplateau - Apr 18, 2014
If you are on this forum and have an iPhone you have probably heard of this before.
However some will not have, so I am going to share it today.
I do not claim to have discovered this.
Basically all you do is go to the phone app and dial the numbe
'*3001#12345#*'
Spoiler (Click to View)
Once you do this a window titled 'field test will appear.
This lets you see hidden settings, although this has no use.

It also allows you to change the signal bars to a numerical form
this appears automatically as field test opens.
to keep this permanent simply tap on the top left while still in field test to change it back to the bars.
Then do a force restart by holding the sleep and home button at he same time until the apple logo shows up. When it has rebooted your signal bars will be in numerical form.

I hope this tutorial was useful. -skyplateau

A client who I serve at my job came in showing me this. He's really tech savvy, so I thought this was really interesting.
thanks for the share! I'll do it for my phone when I get it on Wednesday.
