Vivo Secret Codes & USSD Dial Codes (2026)
Funtouch / OriginOS codes
Vivo secret codes work across both Funtouch OS and OriginOS and lead to a factory test menu covering the display, multi-touch tracking, speakers, receiver, microphones, cameras, vibration motor, proximity and light sensors, gyroscope and fingerprint reader. Each test reports a clear pass or fail, which makes the menu genuinely useful when you are buying a used handset.
A quick pre-purchase routine on any Vivo device is to dial the hardware test, run the display and multi-touch checks first, then the audio loop, then the sensors. Five minutes of testing catches the faults that are expensive to fix later, and the results are far more reliable than a visual inspection.
Vivo devices also respond to universal GSM interrogation strings such as IMEI display and call-forwarding status. As always, treat reset codes as live commands: on most Vivo firmware the wipe begins the instant the sequence is accepted, without a confirmation prompt, so take a backup before you go anywhere near that category.

How to use Vivo codes
- Open the Vivo dialer and go to the keypad, exactly as if you were dialling a number.
- Type the code precisely as shown, including the leading
*and the trailing#. Autocorrect and paste can drop characters, so type it out. - Most sequences fire the moment the final character is entered — you usually do not press call.
- If the screen does not change, press the call button once; a few USSD strings need it.
- Back up photos, messages and app data before running anything marked destructive, then confirm you are on the right device.
- Nothing at all happening usually means the code is disabled on your firmware or blocked by your carrier — it is not a fault with your handset.
Vivo secret codes — FAQ
Do all Vivo phones support the same secret codes?
No. Code support depends on the model, the firmware version and in many cases the carrier that supplied the handset. Older Vivo models often expose more service menus than the newest releases, because manufacturers gradually lock engineering tools behind signed diagnostic apps. If a code does nothing, it has almost certainly been removed or disabled on your build rather than typed incorrectly.
Is it safe to dial Vivo secret codes?
The codes we mark as "safe" only display information or open a read-only test menu, so they cannot damage your phone. Codes marked "caution" change a setting or start a hardware routine you should understand first, and codes marked "destructive" erase user data instantly with no confirmation dialog. Always back up before running anything in the destructive category.
Why does nothing happen when I enter a code?
Three common reasons: the code is not supported on your firmware, your network operator has blocked the USSD string, or the dialer requires you to press the call button for that particular sequence. Try the code on a different SIM or in airplane mode, and confirm every character including the leading asterisk and trailing hash.
Will using these codes void my Vivo warranty?
Simply reading diagnostic information does not void a warranty. However, changing radio band settings, running write operations in an engineering menu, or performing a factory format can leave your device in a state a service centre may treat as user-caused. Stick to read-only codes unless you are following official repair guidance.
Can these codes unlock a network-locked Vivo phone?
No. Network unlocking requires a carrier-issued unlock code or an official unlock request through your operator. Any site promising a free universal unlock dial code is misleading you. The codes listed here only expose diagnostics, network status, firmware information and factory reset routines.
How do I find my IMEI on a Vivo device?
Dial *#06# on any GSM or LTE phone, including every Vivo model, and the IMEI appears immediately. You can also validate the number with our IMEI checker, which runs the Luhn checksum used by the GSMA to detect mistyped or invented IMEI numbers.
