THINGS YOU SHOULD KNOW YOUR CELLPHONE 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: -




1
EMERGENCY
* The Emergency Number worldwide for **Mobile** is112 .* If you find
yourself out of coverage area of your mobile network and there is an
emergency,dial112 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.**

2 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!"*

3 HiddenBattery power




Imagine your cell battery isvery low, you are expecting animportant 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 a50% increase in battery. This
reserve will get charged when you charge your cell next time.
AND 4



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. Please spread this useful information around

Posted under a letter to Editor TOI by me
The IBN 7 TV channel has given a large coverage to The some cell phones exploding on receiving a call, The screen going red or black,, calls from some specific number being responsible or a virus is floating or possibly it is a terrorist activity. Rumers circulate very quickly in India unless countered by positive action .
Possible cause for the accidents that have happened is the Lithun-ion batteries that are used in all such portable devices. They are light and small and can store much more energy than any other rechargeable battery.
The drawback is that after repeated charge/discharge cycles the lithium does not form a perfectly smooth metal at the negative electrode and assumes an uneven form that is unstable and reactive and may lead to explosions, added to this is the defective phones that are repaired by unskilled roadside mechanics and may lead to short-circuit a heavy discharge and explosion.
It would be in fitness, if the various companies selling mobiles, quickly come out with an explanation and precautions to be taken while using a mobile handset
