TweetUmmm....I'm going to have to call BS on that. How can a microphone that is not powered up receive anything? That just doesn't make sense to me. If that was the case, then the phone would lose power even when turned off. Also, I have a flip phone and people can't hear a thing I'm saying when the phone is slipped down. This must be something that worked on old school phones because it doesn't make sense on new phones.

TweetWe have cell phones that have a tracking system called Telenav. It is a GPS positioning program. IF the phone is powered down, the program will be off and we will be alerted via email. We can enter the program from our computer and restart the program on the cell phone even if the phone is still powered down.
Now I don't know how a phone that is not powered up can be started and hear anything through the microphone. Seems a little far fetched to me

is there any way to prove this? This is kinda different but i looked in to voice encryption technology for cell phones and a program can be purchased so no one can listen to your conversation but the thing is your phone must be a smart phone or pocket PC type phone that can run windows and both people talking must have the program on their phones. I was going to get it but the guys i would be talking with dont have the phone that uses it so I stick to hushmail for now and just dont say anything on the phone.

TweetThey acutally had a lady here is washington that was being stocked by the use of her cell. Conversations were taped then then person would call and leave it on her voice mail. The conversation was when the cell phone was off. I guess there is some type of device where the person can turn watch for a cell phone to be used and then once the device has the phone address or something it can then be controled by the device. Kind of like when you call support for your computer they can take over the mouse and see everything on your computer.

When you break everything down a cell phone is never really off unless the battery is out of the device. With the battery in you can look at it as binary codes with 1's and 0's. O's are being sent to the processor but power is still bein exchanged waiting to you turn the phone on.
