Cell Phone Magic

FIVE 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 - 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 - 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 - 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 disable a STOLEN mobile phone

To check your Mobile phone’s serial number, key in the following digits on
your phone: *#06# A 15-digit code will appear on the screen. This number
is unique to your handset. Write it down and keep it somewhere safe. If your
phone is 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 - Free Directory Service for Cells

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.

I tried the second one and it works…it was crazy.

is the second one for real?

We just did here at work…on one of the fleet cars. I went out with my phone and called a girl at my work…it didn’t work…then we got the spare set and locked it in there. Then we tried it again and it worked. I walked away from the car and it wouldn’t work…so that confirmed it…just make sure the spare set is actually in the car.

I’d assume those codes are provider/phone specific.

As for the unlock, I don’t know how that could possibly work, unless the remote is sound-activated. I’m pretty sure the microphone can’t pick up / speaker can’t emit the IR or radio frequencies used. I’m not saying it’s impossible, just that I’m skeptical.

IT WORKED!!!

:repost:

but cool

ive tried that unlock thing with about 5 different types of cars and situations. never works for me.

another free 411 is the new Google 411
