Five Cell Phone Secrets	5 Things You Never Knew Your Cell Phone Could Do.
Amazon	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. Try it out.
	Have you locked your keys in the car? -- Tested 4-2-2008. This does NOT work. Does your car have remote keyless entry? 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. Distance is no object. You could be hundreds of miles away, and if you can reach someone who has the other 'remote entry' for your car, you can unlock the doors.
	Hidden Battery Power -- Tested 4-29-2008 -- nothing happens. Imagine your cell battery is very low. To activate, press the keys *3370#. Your cell phone 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 phone next time.
	How to disable a STOLEN mobile phone? -- This works on my Motorola razr phone. Tested 4-29-2008. 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 number is unique to your handset. Write it down and keep it somewhere safe. If 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 useless. You probably won't get your phone back but at l east you know that whoever stole it can't use / sell it either. If everybody would do this, there would be no point in people stealing mobile phones.
	Free Directory Service -- *This free Directory Service* contains advertising. Tested 4-29-2008.** Cell phone companies are charging us $1 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. When you need to use the 411 information option, simply dial: (800) FREE411, or (800) 373-3411 without incurring any charge at all. Program this into your cell phone now.
	Some Serious debunking of this -- the real poop.
