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.
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). 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 Subject: 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 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 Subject:
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 even 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 cell phone now.
