5 tips and tricks for your mobile phone

  1. In case of emergency: You are in some emergency situation and your phone does not have a signal, whom will you turn to for help?? Your phone can be your life saver in such situations. All you need to do is dial 112. This is a worldwide emergency number for mobiles.  When you dial this number your mobile will search for any existing network to establish the emergency number for you. One interesting fact is that you can dial this number even on a locked keypad.
  2. In case you locked your keys in the car: It sometimes happens that you forget your keys in the car and lock your car with remote. You remember that the spare keys are at home. Now, you cannot drive all the way home. Instead, call someone at home on their mobile from your mobile. Hold  your phone about a foot distant 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 be unlocked. This saves someone from driving all the way to you to hand your keys.
  3. Hidden Battery Power: Remember those awful times when you need to make an urgent call or text something important and you find your phone battery low. It’s no use cursing yourself for forgetting to charge it. One thing you can do at such desperate times is press the keys *3370#. Your phone will restart with the reserve power and your phone will show a 50% increase in power. This reserve will get charged the next time you charge your phone.
  4.  Disable your Stolen Phone: Protect your phone from thief’s. Though you cannot get back your stolen phone yet you can still disable it that nobody else can use it. Check your mobile phone serial number by dialing * # 0 6 # . Upon doing so, you will get a 15 digit number which is unique to your phone. Keep this number written somewhere safe. In case you lose your phone, call your service provider and tell 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. Imagine if everybody follows this there will be no stolen phones, because what is the point in stealing it, when you cannot use it??
  5. 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) FREE 411, or (800) 373-3411 without incurring any charge at all. Program this into your cell phone now.
