Maybe you've seen this before, but if you haven't it's an interesting read. I tried #4 and it worked so maybe the others do to.

Enjoy.............



5 THINGS YOU NEVER KNEW YOUR CELL PHONE COULD DO
>
>There are a few things that can be done in times of 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:
>
>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.
>
>
>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 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!'
>
>THIRD
>Hidden Battery Power.
>
>Imagine your cell battery is very low. To activate, press the keys *3370# Your
cell will restart with this reserve and the instrument will show a 50% increase
in battery. This reserve will get charged when you charge your cell next time.
>
>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 appears on the screen.
>This number is unique to your handset. Write it down and keep it somewhere
safe. When your phone gets 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
or sell it either. If everybody does this, there would be no point in people
stealing mobile phones.
>And Finally....
>
>FIFTH
>Free Directory Service for Cells.
>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.
