This code is carrier and/or device specific, but it's listed here for being of historical relevance as a part of a procedure capable of bypassing the Activation screen on iPhone OS 1.1.1: #301# through *#309# Generates fake incoming call; the phone will become kind of messed up, thinking that it's on a call until you restart. Can be used to stream music to Bluetooth headset.

*# - inquiry/check status ** - set value and activate * - reactivate # - "temporarily" deactivate ## - deactivate and clear settings
