4 Things You Never Knew Your Cell Phone Could Do

What a long title there..hahaha..Good Information to share~

For all the folks with cell phones ( This should be printed and kept in your car,purse and wallet !)
There are 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 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 lucky number~ 112 can be dialed even if the keypad is locked.

2.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 cell phone : If you lock your keys in the car and the spare keys are at home , call someone at home on their cellphone from your cell phone. Hold your cellphone about a foot from your car door and have the person at your home press the unlock button , holding it near the mobile on their end... walllla ! Your car will unlock. Saves somenone 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... ( i want to try this ! )

3.HIDDEN BATTERY POWER
What if you cell battery is very low ,and there is an emergency ?
there is a good trick ! Press keys *3370#. Your cellphone will restart with this reserve power and the instrument will show a 50% increase in battery. This reserve will get charged when you charge your cell phone next time.

4.HOW TO DISABLE A STOLEN MOBILE PHONE ?
To check your mobile phone's serial number , key in the following digits on your phone *#06#. A 15-digit code will appear on the screen. This nuber 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 will be no point in people stealing mobile phones... !

Nice article. I thought I'd add a tip regarding something most people probably never knew they could do to their cell phones: significantly reduce the bill without switching plans. We tend to think of wireless plan costs as fixed, but you can tinker with your plan to optimize your features to best suit your usage and often save significant cash in the process. I actually work in the consumer advocacy division of the company Validas, where we electronically audit and subsequently reduce the average cell bill by 22 percent through our website, http://www.fixmycellbill.com. Put simply, Validas guards against frivolous and unnecessary charges that inflate your cell bill more than it should be for your usage. You can find out for free if fixmycellbill.com can modify your plan to better suit your needs by going to the website.

For more info, check out Validas in the national news media, most recently on Fox News at http://www.myfoxtampabay.com/dpp/consumer/conlaw/lower_cell_phone_bills_072409 .

Good luck to everyone reading on reducing wireless bills, especially in light of this unforgiving economy.
