It might be worth taking a copy of this and keep it in your walle
 
 
FOUR THINGS YOU PROBABLY NEVER KNEW YOUR MOBILE PHONE COULD DO !!! 
 
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: 

FIRST 
Emergency Services 

The Emergency Number worldwide for all Mobile Phones is 112. 
If you find yourself out of  the coverage area of your mobile network and there is an emergency, dial 112 and your mobile will search any existing network in your area to establish the emergency number for you, and 
Interestingly this number 112 can be dialled even if the keypad is locked. 
This works on all phones worldwide and is free. 

SECOND 
Have you  locked your keys in the car? 

If your car has 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 thousands
of miles away, 


Editor's  Note: I didnt believe this when I heard about it! I rang my daughter in Sydney from Perth when we went on holiday.  She had the spare car key.  We tried it out and it unlocked our car over a mobile phone!' 

THIRD 
Is your mobile phone battery flat ?



All mobiles have Hidden Battery Power 

To activate, press the keys *3370# (remember the asterisk).  Do this when the phone is almost dead. 
Your mobile will restart in a special way with this new reserve and the instrument will show a 50% 
Increase in battery life.. This reserve will get re charged when you charge your mobile next time. 
This secret is in the fine print in most phone manuals.  Most people however skip this information without realising.
 

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 # 

Ensure you put an asterisk BEFORE the #06# sequence 

A  15 digit code will appear on the screen. This number is unique to your handset. Write it down and keep it somewhere safe. 
If your phone ever 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 you r phone back, but at  least you know that whoever stole it can't use/sell it either. If 
Everybody done this, there would be no point in people stealing mobile phones. 

This secret is also in the fine print of most mobile phone manuals.  It was created for the very purpose of trying to prevent phones from being stolen. 

Also -ATM   PIN Number Reversal - Good to Know  !! 

If you should ever be forced by a robber to withdraw money from an ATM machine, you  can notify the police by entering 
Your PIN # in reverse. For example, if your  pin number is 1234, then you would put in 4321. The ATM system recognizes  
That your PIN number is backwards from the ATM card you placed in the  machine. The machine will still give you the money
You requested, but unknown  to the robber, the po lice will be immediately dispatched to the location. 

All ATMs carry this emergency sequencer by law. 

This information was recently broadcast on by Crime Stoppers however it is seldom used because people just don't know about it. 
  


Please pass this along to everyone. 
 
This is the kind of information people don't mind receiving, so pass it on to your family and friends
