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
dialled
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.
ATM
- PIN Number Reversal - Good to
Know

If you should
ever be forced by a robber to
withdraw money
from an ATM machine, you can
notify the
police by entering your PIN # in reverse.
For example, if
your pin number is 1234,

then you would
put in 4321.
The ATM system
recognizes that your PIN number is
backwards from
the ATM card you placed in the machine.
The machine
will still give you the money you requested,
but unknown to
the robber, the police will be
immediately
dispatched to the location.
This information was
recently broadcast on CTV by Crime Stoppers
however it is seldom
used because people just don't know about it.
Please pass this along
to everyone.


This
is the kind of information people don't mind

receiving, so
pass it on to your family and friends
