Would you like to know if your mobile phone is original or not?
Press the following on your mobile *#06# and the international mobile equipment identity
number appears [ yun yung serial number :D ~kyla]. Then check the 7th and 8th numbers.
If the 7th and 8th digits are:
02 / 20 - your cellphone was assembled in Emirates which is very Bad Quality
08 / 80 - your cellphone was manufactured in Germany which is fair quality
01 / 10 - your cellphone was manufactured in Finland which is Very Good
00 - your cellphone was manufactured in an original factory which is the best mobile quality
13 - your cellphone was assembled in Azeerbaijan which is very bad quality and also
dangerous to your health
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:
(1) EMERGENCY
The Emergency Number worldwide for Mobile is 112. If you find yourself out of 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.
(2) CAR KEYS
Have you locked your keys in the car? Does your car have remote keys?
This may come in handy someday. If you lock your keys in the car and the spare keys
are at home, call someone at home on their cellphone from your cellphone. 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 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 could reach someone who has the other "remote" for you car, you can unlock the doors or the trunk.
(3) HIDDEN BATTERY POWER
Imagine your cell battery is very low, you are expecting an important call and you don't have a charger. Nokia instrument comes with a reserve battery. 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 phone next time.
AND
(4) How to disable the STOLEN mobile phone?
To check the Mobile Phone's serial number, key in *#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 (much better if you memorized it!) When your phone get stolen, you can phone your service provider and give them the code. They will then be able to block your handset so even if the theif 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.
