Things You Never Knew Your Mobile Phone Can Do




Everyone has a mobile phone nowadays. I am pretty sure that most people would not be able to survive more than a few hours without their mobile phones. However, besides the basic surfing on the Internet, making calls and sending SMSes to friends, there are a few handy things that your mobile phone can help you with. Who knows, these tips might even save your life if you are ever caught in such situations.

Emergency

You are in an emergency situation e.g. you’ve just met with an accident in a deserted area and you can’t remember the number of the nearest hospital. Don’t fret and most importantly do not ever panic. All you have to do is to pre-save this number into your phone; 112 and dial it because it is the Emergency Number for mobile phones worldwide. This number works even if you do not have any coverage on your mobile. Dial 112 and your mobile will start to search for any existing network to locate the nearest emergency number for you.

Locking Your Car

We might laugh at people who are caught in such situations but it is bound to happen sometimes. And if it happens to you, at least you will have an idea of what to do. If you have accidentally locked your keys in the car and you do not have a spare with you at the moment, call someone nearest to your spare keys on their mobile phone from yours. 

All you have to do is hold your mobile phone about a foot from your car. Then tell the person on the line to press the unlock button while making sure that the remote is near to his or her mobile phone. Interestingly enough, your car will unlock. You therefore can save the trouble of getting someone to drive a long distance just to pass you your spare keys.

Battery Power

Think about this: you’ve utilized almost all the battery power in your mobile phone and you are nowhere near a charger. Your phone is seconds away from self shutting down and you desperately need to use it to make some important calls. Well, don’t panic because you can activate your reserve battery power just by pressing the following keys on your mobile *3370#. This will give your mobile an additional 50% increase in battery power which should last you till you can get it charged.


So you see, your mobile phone can be useful for things other than chatting with your friends and checking out their latest Facebook status updates!
