FIVE THINGS YOU PROBABLY NEVER KNEW YOUR MOBILE PHONE COULD DO [MUST READ]

There are some few things that can be done in times of unwarranted emergencies. Your mobile phone can actually be a life saver or an emergency tool for survival.  Check out the following five things that you can do with your Mobile Devices.

FIRST:_Emergency Call: 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 dialled even if the keypad is locked. Try it out._
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 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)._
Editor’s Note: It works fine! We tried it out and it unlocked our car over a mobile phone!
THIRD: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 the 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 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 that 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._
FIFTH:_ATM – PIN Number Reversal: Good to Know that 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 police will be immediately dispatched to the location._
