Hi. Today I will show you how to check your battery information along with other stuff about the phone.
1. Open up the dialer and dial this code *#*#4636#*#*
2. As soon as you're done typing it, it will take you to the menu:
Now this is good to know if your battery is alright and to see how much the temperature is, if it's a lot you should immediately take your phone to a cool place because you may damage it, as said in the phone manual.
There are also other options to choose, such as Phone information, Usage statistics, and Wifi information.
