Default Mobile Phone is awesome!


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: -



1. EMERGENCY *

The Emergency Number worldwide for **Mobile** is 112.* If you find

yourself out of 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 dialled even if the keypad is locked. **Try it out.**

2 Have you locked your keys in the car? Does you car have remote keys?*



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!"*

3.Hidden Battery power



Imagine your cell battery is very low, you are expecting an important

call and you don't have a charger. Nokia instrument comes with a

reserve battery. 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.



4. 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.
