Well, One thing I found interesting was that it gave me the signal strength in db from my cell sites, As I supposively according to Cingular have 3 of them around me. It has other areas of info, that I dont recall seeing when I did this on my old 8125. Just geeky stuff. :)

I tried it and it didn't work at all. "Your call cannot be completed as dialed" SF Bay Area. AT&T 8525.

Weird. When I did it, I didn't have to hit the talk button at all. The screen came up immediately after inputting in the code. I also didn't have to reboot the phone either. My phone has a file called Fieldtest.exe in the windows folder. This file was in the standard HTC ROM. I did run into another thread where someone posted (I believe) another version of FieldTest.exe.

Here is the URL:

Try copying that into your windows folder and run the executable directly. That should achieve the same results.
