abhay 0 Report post Posted December 10, 2005 (edited) dude did some googling on ur stuff http://www.google.com/search?q=*%237460256...&sa=X&oi=lrtip7 i think this code is for sim-clock-check Sim Clock information To check if the Sim-Clock can be stopped type: *#746025625# (= *#sim0clock#) which is used to save battery -: as its told in many websites *(Sim-clock-stop is a kind of standby mode which will save battery time). May not work with all firmware versions. nothing about free sms or something! may b this is what u want?? BTW in my phone if i try this it says "STOPPING SIM CLOCK NOT ALLOWED" <-- nokia 2300 Edited December 10, 2005 by abhay Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Arun 795 Report post Posted December 11, 2005 I saw the show too yesterday night, and he did mention that it may not work with all operators as the 'bug' could have been plugged by most operators already. When the handset is in "Sim-clock-stop" mode, some operators do not log SMS sent during that time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Harshad 1 Report post Posted December 13, 2005 I dont know how they said it on CNBC If not illegal is downright unethical. Did anyone actually SEE it on TV? hey anujit, i actually saw it on tv.. he showed it on his cell ( was it nokia 8310, guys ?? ) ! It actually showed SIM CLOCK stopped or something like that.. Trump had a different message centre number ( till last year ) which when entered gave absolutely free SMS ( local n national ). Stupid ppl realised it and plugged it. Damn those trump ppl !

Vishal Gupta 4 Report post Posted December 26, 2005 Its a very old trick! Actually u can get this code on all the sites, which provide secret codes and tricks for GSM mobiles. And it doesnt work for ne operator in INDIA!!! And I'm not sure about other countries... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Arun 795 Report post Posted December 28, 2005 Actually this tech show hosted on CNBC TV 18 copies many parts from old international shows like TV.com, etc. Maybe they have taken permission from them. But some of them like these are old and do not cater to the Indian community. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
