I haven't tried any of these. So I don't know if they work. It was an e-mail, but I thought it was pretty cool, so I was going to pass it on.
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
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.
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
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.
FIFTH
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.
This is the kind of information people don't mind receiving,
so pass it on to your family and friends.
