In [[Grand Theft Auto IV]], [[The Lost and Damned]] and [[The Ballad of Gay Tony]], '''cheats''' are activated by bringing up the phone number pad and typing the cheat phone number into [[Niko Bellic]]'s, [[Johnny Klebitz]]'s, or [[Luis Fernando Lopez]]'s [[Cell Phone|mobile phone]]. After this has been done once, the cheat will be stored in the phone, and accessible from the "Cheats" menu there. Note that the [[PlayStation 3]] version of GTA IV needs to be updated in order for trophies to work.


Be warned that entering some of these cheats in the game will disable certain achievements in the 360 version, so do so at your own risk. It also blocks Trophies of the PS3 verison of the game. Accessing [[Secrets]] is different than cheats, and will not affect the status of your gameplay. There is no way to unblock the achievements unless you re-load your game and haven't saved after the cheat has been activated. 
Entering some of these cheats in the game will disable certain [[Achievements in GTA IV|achievements/trophies]] only on the active save file; it does not prevent the player from achieving 100% completion. If achievements are blocked, they can be unblocked by loading a save file without blocked achievements. Cheats may have undesired effects on gameplay and can introduce [[glitches]].
"Further warning is needed, after talking to rockstar games live certain cheats will affect the game drastically. Say the armor, health and ammo cheat could possible glitch the game and make things change (in my case all the cars at the safe houses disappeared. Not to say that specific cheat will do that, but i have used innumerable cheats hundreds of times without thought and just recently I noticed my cars are gone. However if you use any of these cheats but still desire all the achievements, '''you can simply start a new game file and complete the first mission'''. Then there are '''''no blocks on the achievements.'''''" --[[User:Malavik|Malavik]]

Note that cheats that are found in the episodes only work in their respective episodes. They do not work across games.

*Calling any other random number you find in the game from stores, posters, etc. will allow you to prank call that number.
1* Another cheat to get full health, armor, ammo and repair one's vehicle can be used if the player is driving the [[Mr. Tasty]]; cycle through the ice cream jingles (using the horn button) until the GTA IV theme plays, then call the [[ZiT]] Service (948-555-0100).

3* If the player has completed all 30 of [[Stevie]]'s Car theft missions, Stevie will pay cash for almost any car delivered to his garage. Using vehicle-spawning cheats, the player can exploit this arrangement for as much money as he or she wants.

The [[FIB Buffalo]] and the [[Jetmax]] are unsellable spawn vehicles. The [[Annihilator]] cannot fit in [[Stevie]]'s garage.
Most cars have a low sale value, however driving gently into a wall (enough to scrape the paint) will dramatically improve the value of certain cars. For example, when the [[Cognoscenti]] is spawned and sold in perfect condition, Niko will get $8,000; scraping the car against the wall of the garage while entering will change the payout to the full retail value, $10,500 (some have reported the value further increasing to $10,800). Presumably this is a game bug.

Most cars have a low sell value, driving gently into a wall enough to scrape the paint will dramatically improve the value of certain cars, when the [[SuperGT]] is spawned and sold you will get you $8,000, driving it slightly into the corner of the garage enough to ding it and then selling it will sell for the full retail value the $10,500 (I have had experiences where I have gotten 10,800.

Restarting your system and reloading a saved game without cheats will reenable achievements/trophies
In GTA IV, the player must enter cheats through the cell phone.

Vehicles appear out of thin air and I haven't even been sniffing any glue today!

Glitches in the network, dial a number and life will change.
- in-game website description


In Grand Theft Auto IV, The Lost and Damned and The Ballad of Gay Tony, cheats are activated by bringing up the phone number pad and typing the cheat phone number into Niko Bellic's, Johnny Klebitz's, or Luis Fernando Lopez's mobile phone. After this has been done once, the cheat will be stored in the phone, and accessible from the "Cheats" menu there. Note that the PlayStation 3 version of GTA IV needs to be updated in order for trophies to work.

Entering some of these cheats in the game will disable certain achievements/trophies only on the active save file; it does not prevent the player from achieving 100% completion. If achievements are blocked, they can be unblocked by loading a save file without blocked achievements. Cheats may have undesired effects on gameplay and can introduce glitches.

Note that cheats that are found in the episodes only work in their respective episodes. They do not work across games.

For example, when the Cognoscenti is spawned and sold in perfect condition, Niko will get $8,000; scraping the car against the wall of the garage while entering will change the payout to the full retail value, $10,500 (some have reported the value further increasing to $10,800).
