[access-uk] Mobile phone query (Very OT!!)

Apologies for this OT query, but I know that there are many list 
members who are very knowledgeable about mobile phones and might be 
able to save me scanning a  lot of print documentation.  

I am one of those strange people who still use a mobile phone largely 
for having a  conversation with someone at the other end of the line, 
so my knowledge is largely limited to what I need for that purpose.   


My  phone has various hot keys set up and I use them when needed, but 
I               believe that in addition certain operations can be performed by 
entering a string like *#xx# e.g. *#10# for "Store number". (asterisk 
hash 10 hash if your screen reader is not set to read all the 
characters).   

My queries are 

1. Are these codes general or specific to a particular type of phone,
and 
2. If they are general, is there a list of the strings and their 
function available on the Internet.  
I  have been trying to find such information via a Google search, but 
I am not sure how to describe the strings or codes concerned. .

Any guidance (off list, if thought more appropriate) would be much 
appreciated.


Thanks in advance,


Douglas
