[size=13]Dont answer a cellphone while its being charged


Dont answer a cell phone while it is being CHARGED!! A few days ago, a person was recharging his cell phone at home. Just at that time a call came through and he attended to it; with the instrument still connected to the mains. After a few seconds electricity flowed into the cell phone unrestrained and the person was thrown to the ground with a heavy thud.

His parents rushed into the room only to find him unconscious, with weak heartbeats and burnt fingers. He was rushed to the nearby hospital, but was pronounced dead on arrival.  A Cell phone is a very useful modern invention. However, we must be aware that it can also be an instrument of death.

Never use the cell phone while it is hooked to the mains!  !kkalang [/size][/b]

[size=12]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) Subject: Emergency number
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. *Try it out.*

2) Subject: Have you locked your keys in the car? Does you car have remote keys? 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 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. 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).

Editors Note: *It works fine! We tried it out and it unlocked our car over a cell phone!"?
 
3) Subject: Hidden Battery power Imagine your cell battery is very low, u r expecting an important call and u dont have a charger. Nokia instrument omes 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 u charge your cell next time.


Guys please keep these things in mind or write them down; I have tried them myself and trust me it works.       [/size][/b]

[size=12]Some are well-established facts. A few could be part of urban legend. Just sharing these trivia with you guys!

1. The worlds youngest parents were 8 and 9 and
lived in China in 1910.

2. The youngest pope was 11 years old.

3. Each king in a deck of playing cards represents a
great king from history:
Spades - King David,
Hearts - Charlemagne,
Clubs - Alexander, the Great
Diamonds - Julius Caesar

4. 111,111,111 x 111,111,111 =
12,345,678,987,654,321

5. If a statue in the park of a person on a horse
has both front legs in the air, the person died in
battle.
If the horse has one front leg in the air the
person died as a result of wounds received in
battle.
If the horse has all four legs on the ground,
the person died of natural causes.

5. "I am." is the shortest complete sentence in the
English language.

6. Q. What occurs more often in December than any
other month?
A. Conception.

7. Q. If you were to spell out numbers, how far
would you have to go until you could find the
letter "A"?
A. One thousand.

8. Q. What do bullet-proof vests, fire escapes,
windshield wipers, and laser printers all have in
common?
A. All invented by women.

9. Q. What is the only food that doesnt spoil?
A. Honey

10. In Shakespeares time, mattresses were secured
on bed frames by ropes. When you pulled on
the ropes the mattress tightened, making the
bed firmer to sleep on. Hence the phrase
"goodnight, sleep tight".

11. It was the accepted practice in Babylon 4,000
years ago that for a month after the wedding,
the brides father would supply his son-in-law
with all the mead he could drink. Mead is a honey
beer and because their calendar was lunar
based, this period was called the honey month or
what we know today as the honeymoon.

12. In ancient England a person could not have sex
unless you had consent of the King (unless
you were in the Royal Family). When anyone
wanted to have a baby, they got consent of the
King, the King gave them a placard that they
hung on their door while they were having sex.
The placard had F.*.* K (Fornication Under
Consent of the King) on it. Now you know where
that word came from.

13. In Scotland, a new game was invented. It was
entitled Gentlemen Only, Ladies Forbidden...
and thus the word GOLF entered into the English language.

on CHINITA: gurl, this ones not true..it has something to do with the sound of the phone.(*3370#)

*3370#

This Nokia code

activates Enhanced Full Rate Codec (EFR) - Your Nokia

cell phone uses the best sound quality but talk time is

reduced my approx. 5%



#3370#

Deactivate Enhanced Full Rate Codec

(EFR)


------- just a fact


peace online...
