For all the folks
with cell phones. (This should be printed and kept in your
car, purse, and wallet. Good information to have with you.)
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
(Hidden
Battery Power)
Imagine your cell
battery is very low. To activate, press the keys *3370#. Your
cell phone 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 phone next time.
THIRD
(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....
FOURTH
(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)
FREE411 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.
