(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); 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:


One: 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.


Two: 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).


Three: 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.


Four: 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.

Thanks .

Thanks for the info. Really great stuff, especially the serial number. Now I can just deactivate my iphone if it ever gets stolen

Sadly, the 50% battery code doesnt work, all I get is the following message:

Error performing request: Unknown Error

Cool! The hidden battery one doen not work on iphone though, still.. the rest are good!

Wow, cool tricks there :bro:

thanks , Its a shame that everybody is saying the reserver battery one isnt working though

The last will be useful to people who get their stuff stolen.Thanks for the tips

i didn't get a message or anything whenever i entered the battery code on my epic 4g, but it randomly turned off when it was charging & it's been unplugged around 3 and a half hours and it's at 88% ( was at 94 ) and i've been texting & been on facebook and stuff on my phone since i woke up, so maybe it worked.

Does anyone know how the car one works? Sounds pretty interesting. Quote me? :p

very usefull thanks
