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!’

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.
