4 THINGS YOU PROBABLY NEVER KNEW YOUR MOBILE 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 

mobile 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 mobile phone!' 



THIRD - Hidden Battery Power 



Imagine your mobile battery is very low.. To activate, press the keys 

*3370# Your mobile will restart with this reserve and the instrument 

will show a 50% increase in battery. This reserve will get charged 

when you charge your mobile 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.
