Samsung has integrated a more or less secret service menu to his Samsung Galaxy S5 Mini where you can check various hardware features of your smartphone on technical function. This service menu can be seen on the Samsung Galaxy Mini S only by code, which must be entered using the keypad of the phone app. We show you in this article how to open the service menu on the Samsung Galaxy S5 Mini so you can test the smartphone through its paces.
Navigate from the home screen of the Samsung Galaxy S5 Mini to the phone app and within this on the tab "keypad". If you see the keyboard in front of you, please enter the following code: *#0*#

To exit the service menu, tap twice quickly on the Samsung Galaxy Mini S5 back button.
