Things you never knew your cell phone can do:
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. Try it out.
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).
Subject: Hidden Battery Power
Imagine your cell battery is very low. // this only works on certain phones only not all
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 disable 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 gets 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 bac k, 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.
