Do you remember any cheat codes by heart that AREN'T the Konami code?

I'll allow it. Mainly because I came in here to post that one.
I used to remember AoE II cheats and Warcraft 1 but I can't remember them anymore
haha THATS THE ONE

Mortal Kombat's DULLARD and ABACABB on Genesis
DOOM's IDKFA and IDDQD
Crash Team Racing's SEASWAN
Age of Empires 2's how do i turn this on
I used to remember some for Tony Hawk 2X as well because they were also word-based cheats, I think words were a whole lot easier to remember than just motions and letters

They are, but they're totally invisible. The palette makes them essentially not there. You need to change the palette in game to see them, either with PAR or the code or hex editing or something.
Cake, Hammer, Earth, Apple, Tap: Robocod; collect the first five items in the game in that order to unlock the cheat mode
There's a second one later in the level that spells LIVES, although I don't remember exactly what the objects are that make it up. I remember Lips and a Violin.
NXRD: Password to the final level of Gremlins 2 on the NES.
GBIO RGS: Enter into the high-score table on Starglider on Spectrum to access a cheat menu
PBRAIN: Enter into the high-score table on Arkanoid on Spectrum to be able to continue
MAAAAH: Same but for Revenge of Doh
LOAD "": REM Monty: When loading Auf Wiedersehen Monty on the Speccy, follow up the load command with a REM saying just "Monty" (REM being the comment structure in Speccy BASIC) -> Access cheat mode.

ABACABB for MK Genesis
DULLARD also for MK Genesis (yet I never owned one)
DRULYB for SF2 and SF2T
Press select 25 times at the Takara logo on KOF95 for Game Boy unlocked multiple extra characters as well as enabled easy specials. There were a ton of DSW cheats for this game but this is the only one I ever activated and each "stage" of pressing Select made a different sound depending on what you enabled: bosses, Nakoruru then the MAX SPECIAL mode.
Select 3 times on the Takara logo activated easy supers, special and other hidden moves, UDABRLAB unlocked all of the hidden characters on Toshinden Game Boy. At least the character code one I'm like 99% sure beating the game a certain way the game would tell you at the credits.
Pressing A a shitload of times (supposedly 16 times a second) while highlighting the difficulty select on Gradius III on SNES gave you ARCADE difficulty which was... really difficult. Lots of practice to eventually be able to beat that without continuing, I think I only ever did a single life clear once (using the modified Konami code).
The oldest game-specific one that's long: NTTMNWLPPBDZ, though that's more of a password than a legit cheat
I've had that one memorized for the past, I dunno, 28 years? It gets you to the last area of Ironsword: Wizards & Warriors II with everything you need to defeat the elementals.

The only other cheat I can remember is the $1000 dollar cheat in Saints Row 2. On the in game phone you put in "#cashmoneyz."

In Sonic Advance, it let you play as Sonic with an AI Tails following him like in Sonic 2.

Besides Sonic 1 level select and Metroid's Justin Bailey:
Space Invaders (2600) - Double shots by holding reset and turning the console on and off.
Intellivision console - pressing 1 and 9 pauses most games. I forget if this is in the manuals.
Pharaoh's Curse (C64) - passwords SPHINX, RAIDER - higher difficulties.
Revenge of Shinobi (Gen) - Get infinite shuriken by setting it to zero long enough in the options menu.
Shinobi (SMS) - Up/Left plus tapping 1/2 for level select. Button 1 might be optional but I'm so used to including it.
Ninja Gaiden (NES) - A/B/Down/Left/Select the start for sound test.
Also if you put your name as Sega or Sonic in Uniracers on SNES, it will just say "not cool enough".
And what's with people listing codes but not mentioning the games? Most people aren't going to automatically know.

Yup. It's the only other one besides DOOM and the Konami code that I know by heart.
I loved this game so much that i played it daily. I used the cheat to skip levels to play against the end boss multiple times in a gaming session lol.
First thing when firing up Mortal Kombat was this
I am kind of ashamed to admit, while I could remember this code for the cheat menu, I never realized is spelt out dullard
Came here for that. Still remember it like nearly 30 years later. :O
This flew out of me like muscle memory when my brother and I fired up SF2 Turbo in the SNES Classic
poweroverwhelming and thereisnocowlevel were the 2 essential tools in beating BroodWar Zerg campaign
e=mc2 is the classic AoE win button- replaced with "how do I turn this on" in the sequel
My favourite was always www in Cossacks. In European Wars it was just a map cheat, but in "Art of War" it actually gave you ability to switch between all players and delete any units you didn't like. Or order them walk into an artillery barrage.
Oh, and of course when Bloodlines came out and then Troika folded, ~noclip was literally the only way to get around a progression bug.

To enable endless lives in the ZX Spectrum game Jet Set Willy. The last time I played the game was over 30 years ago. The problem with this code though is it could get you into an infinite loop where you enter a room and die instantly, respawn and die ad infinitum.

I remember quite a few of Starcraft's:
power overwhelming - invincibility
operation cwal - made it so that buildings built nearly instantly
black sheep wall - revealed the entire map and disabled fog of war
the gathering - all units have unlimited energy
something for nothing - all upgrades
modify the phase variance - all buildings
food for thought - could build units beyond your current limit
There were more but that's just off the top of my head
