everyone who has a cell phone should read this !
I got this in an e-mail have not had a chance to try them but my friend who sent me this says they work
>> THINGS YOU NEVER KNEW YOUR CELL PHONE COULD DO.
>>
>> 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:
>>
>>
>> FIRST
>> Subject: Emerg ency
>>
>> 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.
>>
>>
>> SECOND
>> Subject: 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 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).
>>
>> Editor's Note: It works fine! We tried it out and it
>>
>>
>> unlocked our car over a cell phone!"
>>
>>
>> THIRD
>> Subject: Hidden Battery Power
>>
>> Imagine your cell battery is very low. 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
>> 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 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.
>>
>>
>> And Finally....
>>
>>
>> FIFTH
>> Cell phone companies are charging us $1.00 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, which makes this si! tuation even more of a
>> problem. When you need to use
>> the 411 information option,
>> simply dial: (800) FREE 411, or (800) 373-3411 without
>> incurring any charge at all. Program this into your cell
>> phone now.
>>
>>
>> This is the kind of information people don't
>>
>> mind receiving, so pass it on to your family and friends.

#112 does work.
I got a flat in the dead zone and my spare tire was out of air. Calling 911 was unsuccessful, but 112 surprisingly worked.

I don't think number 2 will work. I'll try it when I get back. Anyone else who tries it make sure you're really far away from your car and out of range of the remote anyways. those things go further than you think. Like 100 something feet away and some walls and my remote will still unlock the car.
