Re: Anyone know the code to get cell info on an LG TU-500?

Rod

LU TU500 & my wife has a TU 550 & both codes work on both

For Field Strength Menu *748#96 then step down 3 menus (My simplistic
understanding is that RSSI is total wideband power received & RSCP is the
equivalent narrowband level of the recovered code - perhaps someone could
confirm)

There is also another hidden menu (Engineering Menu) 277634#*# but change
any of these at your own risk
