Yet, still I've did it and luckily,I got back some quite well and satisfied comments from my tutor and my friends. There goes my 1st formal speech ever.

The hidden functions of hand phones.
A very good evening to my tutor, Ms Chan Wan Ling, and also fellow friends. Is everyone here own at least one mobile phone, or commonly known as hand phone in Malaysia? I believe that all of you will answer yes for sure. This can make an evident that a hand phone is such a common yet useful gadget in our daily life. Nowadays, hand phones can carry out so many functions for the users. Forget about making a call or sms, a hand phone can let us captures photos and records video clips with its camera, enjoy the music and songs with the mp3 player or walkman function, or even make a video call via the 3G service. However, did u know except the functions which commonly in used a hand phone also has some hidden functions that most of you did not noticed about? Hidden functions actually means that the functions that are not in the list of menu. Feeling curious with it? Now I would like to share with you about these hidden functions that can be done in times of grave emergencies.

Firstly, when you are in a great emergency that you need your hand phone to make an emergency call, but at this time, you found your mobile is under a very low battery condition.... “ Sei fo lo!! What can I do now?! Die lo die lo..” Maybe at this time you can ask someone around you to borrow a hand phone. But what if there is no one around you? Now you can activate the hidden battery power of your hand phone. Press the key *3370#. Your phone will restart with this reserve and it will show a 50% increase of battery. This reserve will get charged when you charge your phone next time.

Next, when your hand phone was been stolen or robbed, what can you do?? Instead of just crying there, you can disable your stolen hand phone. Of course you must have your phone’s serial number before losing it. By pressing *#06#, you will get a 15-digit code. This code is unique for every phone, which means that there will be no repetition of the same code on the other phone. Copy the code down and keep it somewhere safe. So when your phone got stolen, you can call your service provider and tell them the code, they will then able to block your phone. So even if the thief changes the SIM card, the phone will be totally useless. For sure you wouldn’t get back your phone, but at least the one who stole it can neither use it nor sell it. If everyone does this, there would be no point of people stealing hand phones.

Lastly, when you have your phone with the keypad locked or you are in a remote place where there is no network available, the emergency number worldwide for mobile phone, 112 would probably help you. This is another situation that make you shout out:” die lo!!!”. However, this emergency number will enable your mobile to search any existing network to establish the emergency number for you. But be careful, this number also can be dailed if there is network available.

Yet, these hidden functions seem to be misunderstanding for some brands of hand phones, which means that not all the brands of phones are available with these functions. In conclusion, the hidden functions mentioned above are really useful when we are in a great emergency. So, when you meet these status next time, don’t be panic and think of these hidden functions which may probably help you. Get it in your mind?

Thank you!!
