THINGS YOU NEVER KNEW YOUR CELL PHONE COULD DO.
There are a few things that can be done in times of grave emergencies.
Your mobile phone can actually be a life saver or an emergency tool for
survival. Check out the things that you can do with it:
FIRST Subject: Emergency The Emergency Number worldwide for Mobile is
112. If you find yourself out of the coverage area of your mobile;
network and there is an emergency, dial 112 and the mobile will search
any existing network to establish the emergency number for you, and
interestingly this number 112 can be dialed even if the keypad is
locked.
SECOND Subject: Have you locked your keys in the car? Does your car
have remote keyless entry? This may come in handy someday. Good reason
to own a cell phone: If you lock your keys in the car and the spare keys
are at home, call someone at home on their cell phone from your cell
phone. Hold your cell phone about a foot from your car door and have the
person at your home press the unlock button, holding it near the mobile
phone on their end. Your car will unlock. Saves someone from having to
drive your keys to you. Distance is no object. You could be hundreds of
miles away, and if you can reach someone who has the other "remote" for
your car, you can unlock the doors (or the trunk).
Editor's Note: It works fine! We tried it out and it unlocked our car
over a cell phone!"
THIRD Subject: Hidden Battery Power Imagine your cell battery is very
low. To activate, press the keys *3370# Your cell will restart with this
reserve and the instrument will show a 50% increase in battery. This
reserve will get charged when you charge your cell next time.
FOURTH How ! to disa ble a STOLEN mobile phone? To check your Mobile
phone's serial number, key in the following digits on your phone: * # 0
6 # A 15 digit code will appear on the screen. This number is unique to
your handset. Write it down and keep it somewhere safe. When your phone
get stolen, you can phone your service provider and give them this code.
They will then be able to block your handset so even if the thief
changes the SIM card, your phone will be totally useless. You probably
won't get your phone back, but at least you know that whoever stole it
can't use/sell it either. If everybody does this, there would be no
point in people stealing mobile phones.
And Finally....
FIFTH Cell phone companies are charging us $1.00 to $1.75 or more for
411 information calls when they don't have to. Most of us do not carry a
telephone directory in our vehicle, which makes this situation ev! en
more of a problem. When you need to use the 411 information option,
simply dial:
(800) FREE 411, or (800) 373-3411
without incurring any charge at all. Program this into your cellphone
now. This is the kind of information people don't mind receiving, so
pass it on to your family and friends.
