Emergency uses worth noting.
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: -
*EMERGENCY*
*Tip I*
*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 dialed even if the keypad is locked. **Try it out.**
*Tip II*
*Subject: 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!"*
*Tip III*
Subject: 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.
AND
*Tip IV*
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
gets 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.
