[Android Central Question]

Hello,
Recently people around me are getting paranoid about their phones being tappes and their calls tracked.
Now they're exchanging codes that tell you if you're being tracked and your calls diverted and such.
I want to know if these codes really work and if they're safe to use.
The codes they're using are
*#21#
#62 # and *#62 #
##002 #

Thank you for your time!

Note: Members are advised not to try those codes, unless they know what they are doing.

Call forwarding has nothing to do with calls being tapped (which can't be detected) or tracked (which also can't be detected - it's the same as tapping). Being diverted? If a call is diverted, you never get it - that would kind of be a big giveaway.

To the original poster - there's no way to detect those things. As Spawnlives said, if you're in Oz, you're forwarding your calls with those codes.
