How do switch phone numbers with two different phones with verizon and they are on the same plan? My mom has an account for me, my dad, and her. Mom was the first one to start the account and then later on she added me and my dad. When she added me and my dad she bought us different phones than her's. Now she wants to switch phones with dad but she has to have the same number because she has a business that has her cell number as the contact number. So she wants to switch the numbers without having to pay verizon to do it for her. The reason why is because the verizon people said that we could do it ourselfs on the internet if we just go to the account and click on My ESN but we can't seem to find it. Does anybody have any idea as to how to switch the numbers?

Why did mobile phones work on airplanes in the US on 11Sept01? Why did mobile phones work over NY and Pennsylvania on 11Sept01, the anniversary date of the end of the last Arab crusade of Europe, and not before or since?

So why did they work there on that day and not on other days?

Every carrier calls it something different, and I'm not sure if certain things mean what I think they mean so on and so forth.

Do cell phone companies make phones that use a universal battery? I recently purchased a nice Motorrizr which i returned because it is 2 years old, and I dont want to be told that that particular battery is no longer made and you have to buy a new phone.

Thanks for all info.

What did the world do before cell phones? I walk down the street. At least every other person is on a cell phone. Those that aren't, have one clipped on their waist. I walk through the mall, airport, restaurants, etc. People are all on the cell phones. You pull up next to another car at a stop light and turn to see the driver.......on his or her cell phone. Did we really miss this many phone calls prior to cell phones being invented? Or are we as a society totally overcommunicating now that we have them?

Do you know a lot about how cell phones work? Ever experience that weird noise coming through your car speakers right before your cell phone is going to ring?

Do cell phones trasmit some kind of radiation or electromagnetic waves just before a call comes through and is that what's waking me? Is it normal for "it" to be causing me to wake like that?

phones that interfere with radio frequency? Just recently, I was thinking about getting a long range phone for my house since cell phones cost too much and there are too many fees associated with cell phones. When I did some surfing online, I found some phones that you could hook up to your existing phone line. However, those phones typically came from some distributor in China or some other foreign country. How do I know if those phones will work on my line? I live in the United States and I currently have verizon. What do I need to know before I actually buy one of those phones. I tried to find this information online but I was unable to find it anywhere. Someone suggested a cordless phone company, but I'm not looking for an ordinary cordless phone. I want a cordless phone that I can use several kilometers away and still make the calls on my phone line at home. Here is one such phone that I found. http://www.telephonemagic.com/voyager-lo... Someone told me that these kinds of phones are illegal, but I don't give a hoot. All I want to know is if they will work in a standard phone outlet. If not, what kind of installation do they require? And is there any way that the phone compay/government can find out?

Can cell phones cook your brain like cell phones can cook eggs? Many organizations including the cell phone industry often downplay the risk of cell phone radiation to the brain. Results from short-term studies were used to convince consumers that use of a cell phone is not associated with brain tumors or cancer, which only develop decades after exposure. To be fair, no one knows exactly how much harm a cell phone can do to a person. Howe Recently, new media has reported a study showing the radiation from cell phones is so full of energy they can be used to cook eggs. In the experiment, researchers placed one egg in a porcelain cup (because it is easy to conduct heat), and put one cell phone on one side and another cell phone on the other. The researchers then called from one cell phone to another and kept the cell phones on after connecting. During the first 15 minutes, nothing changed. After 25 minutes, however, the egg shell started to become hot and at 40 minutes, the surface of the egg became hard and bristled. Researchers found the protein in the egg had become solid although the egg yolk was still in liquid form. After 65 minutes, the whole egg was well cooked. The study shows how scary cell phone radiation is. People should try to avoid use of cell phones. Although so far no one has proved the radiation from cell phones can cause something clinically significant. By the same token, there has been no one who can disprove the existence of such a risk. Children should be forbidden from cell phone use because they still grow their brains and are particularly vulnerable to radiation

If cell phones don’t work on an airplane (without cell phone boosters) then how…? If cell phones don’t work on an airplane then how did 9/11 victims call loved ones with their cell phones? I recently watched “Loose Change 2nd Edition”, and there was this scientist guy who tested cell phones up in the air and their success rate during year 2000 to see if he had a signal. Lets just say it failed miserably to call out or accept calls. Then in 2004 (after 9/11) Boeing installed a cell phone booster on top of their airplane so that people could use their cell phones. Why do this if apparently the cell phone calls to family members came in so clearly during the 9/11 tragedy? I wanted to find out for my self who was telling the truth. So I turned on my cell phone, and guess what. One the plane that I was on did not crash from having it on (even though I was NOT going to make a call, but just having it ON I swear doesn’t hurt anything, just like I have NEVER turned off my CD or MP3 players ALL M Y LIFE and the plane flies just fine). So when I was on the ground I had all my bars (a good signal). However, once up in the air I has NO signal at all! I didn’t get a bar back till about half a mile up in the air. So unless someone called from their cell phone in the last 15 seconds, I don’t see how they could have had a two minuet conversation with people or an answer machine. Now I know big fancy airplanes have phones in the seats, but apparently most of the people didn’t use these phones to call people, they used their own cell phones. Which is Impossible, even a science dude proved that (I doubt it was a miracle either). I found “Loose Change” was telling the truth. Link to “Loose Change”: http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=7167151489146455453&q=Loose+Change+2nd&hl=en If you don’t feel like watching the whole thing just fast forward to the time of “1:08:33”. Or http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loose_Change_(video) By the way there is voice mimicking software that is very accurate just to let people know. I saw that on the Discover Channel about 9 years ago! I’m not saying there wasn’t terrorists, I’m just saying the cell phone thing doesn’t make sense. It’s an inconsistency, which may lead one to wonder about other things. My concern is why would someone make up the phone calls, if they can’t/couldn’t happen? So how did victims really call their loved ones?

Mobile phones and their networks - what sim works with what phone? I'm on a contract with vodafone at the moment, and want to keep this sim if possible. I am looking into buying a new phone though, and wondered if I was restricted to phones which only provide vodafone sim cards? If I were to get a pay as you go phone on, say virgin mobile, would my vodafone sim work with that phone? - I dont like the phones available with vodafone at the moment lol. I remember a while ago I put a sim from another network into an orange mobile phone (that was a nokia) and that worked, how can I tell what model of phone my vodafone sim will work in? I quite like some of the motorola models. Any help here would be appreciated. I'm looking into asking vodafone for an upgrade, but the last time I did that, the phones they offered seemed to be 'downgrades' from the phone I had!

Cell Phones In High School? Ok at my high school they have a bullsh!t policy that says that students may not have there cell phones out at ANY Time during the day, not even at lunch!. I would say about 94% of the kids at my school have a cell phone with them at school. You see Cell Phones are not a bad thing in schools, unless if there phone rings during class, or they are texting during class. Now the only thing I use my cell phone at school for is, After School I call someone, and at lunch I go on the internet on my phone, or watch v-cast on my phone. So today at lunch I was in the gym (During Lunch the gym is used as a open gym to play or watch them play basketball) and I was on the internet on my phone reading, just keeping to my self, and then a mean @$$ teacher comes along and says, "Oh Yeah I'm gonna have to Confiscate your cell phone" and I was like "Hell no you ain't getting my cell phone, because It's my property, and I'm not doing anything bad with it and never have and never will. And then Now I'm gonna make a Student Petition to allow Cell Phones in School at Lunch, or at break, but not during class.

Cell phones have been proven to be dangerous; how young is too young for a cell phone? These days everyone from Grandmas to 10 yr olds have cell phones. (If you want to know where your 10 year old child is; well he's right where you dropped him off!! Where else would he be?) I think the cell phone craze (family packages, unlimited minutes & grade schoolers with phones) is unnecessary hype! And don't get me started on cost! And phone manners! First off; cell phones are dangerous. The cell phone makers don't want you to know that cell phones have been PROVEN to cause many cancers. http://www.rense.com/general63/FACTS.HTM Yes, you can lessen the dangers by using a handsfree device, but.... the younger (child, teenage) user is less likely to keep track of a cell phone PLUS accessories, much less use the headset consistently. Add to that how much a teenager talks on the phone & it adds up to GREAT RISK! So, what is the age when a young person has so much going on that you're willing to risk their health to know where they are at every minute of the day?? To clarify; I'm not thinking of getting a child a phone; my thoughts were mainly philosophical. I work in public service & I see many people every day with phones glued to their ear. I find it rude & irritating. Plus I handle bill payments (and pay attention to the commercials) & I've seen some numbers & I find the cost outrageous. I HAVE researched. I see that there are some studies that say NO, but I see more that say cell phones ARE LINKED TO CANCER. Here's one from less than 30 days ago... http://www.independent.co.uk/life-style/health-and-wellbeing/health-news/mobile-phones-more-dangerous-than-smoking-or-asbestos-802602.html?r=RSS "more dangerous than asbestos & smoking" No responsible parent would let their child start smoking at age 8, right? http://www.lef.org/magazine/mag2007/aug2007_report_cellphone_radiation_01.htm

What phone? Tell me out of these two SLIDEY phones!? Ok. I'm looking for a phone that would fit a 12 year old and would suit me best! Here is the Motorola RIZR Z3 phone. And I think it has a better camera than the other. (this phone 2.0 megapixless) http://t-mobile.com/shop/phones/detail.aspx?tp=tb2&device=f34e6f5f-52a0-43cc-ac13-8e7329dc5da3 Now here is the other with only 1.3 megapixles Samsung t629. But I heard when you talk on the phone with samsung you can hear on it really well. http://t-mobile.com/shop/phones/detail.aspx?tp=tb2&device=bd890d2c-0286-4ade-87ba-b298c1fa73ff but the Samsung has a Phone Book and Alarm clock while the other one doesent. There are two good things about one phone then one bad thing about the other.. Weirdd

Switching phones without going through the provider? Hi everyone, let me start by saying that I am an American living in Germany. I have an LG Chocolate through T-mobile and the thing is all scratched to crap and well, let's just say I hate it. I'm not big on slider phones and that's just about all they have here. When I bought the phone, the box and all appeared to have come from the manufacturer (I'm not very electronic literate, so I could be wrong). The thing was disassembled, battery not charged, etc. Then they gave us a SIM card in an envelope to put into the phone when we got home. Long story short, I want a new phone and I got the impression that my SIM card is what links my phone to T-mobile. If this is not the case, can someone please explain it to me? Is there a way that I can just buy a new phone (maybe Ebay or something) and still keep my info, phone number and link to T-mobile without going through my provider? I am SO tired of european phones! Thanks!

Have cell phones become high tech crack? Are the cell phone companies pushing the use of cell phones like crack dealers do drugs? All the adds and the "free" phones just to get someone hooked into a contract. How can they allow younger people to run up large phone bills, then shut them off. Many young people are now in debt and have ruined their credit and find themselves in court. You see it all the time on the TV Judge shows, young foolish people get phones for their friends, relatives, boyfriends/girlfriends all of them who in the end, don't pay the bill and now the friendship is ruined. It's like the younger generation is hooked on these phones just like we were "hooked" by the cigarette companies. Remember everybody smoked in the movies, now days, everybody is using cell phones. Could there be a marketing connection? Look at the increase in auto accidents because of cell phone use while driving. We ALL pay for this bad habit in higher insurance costs. Do you think the phone companies should be held accountable for their marketing and billing practices. Why can't they just shut off the service when the bill reaches $200 and wait for payment, why let some poor sucker run it up to over a $1000.00?

Cell phones and cell phone company? Do cell phone companies like att and cingular go into the cell phones so that they can identify their phones from other carriers? I want to buy a phone from ebay, but my cell phone company Unicel, said that those phones won't work because it not from their company, even though they carry nokia brand phones.

European Phones - will they work in the USA? I'm not talking about mobile phones - I mean if you are one of those people who still has an old fashioned "land line" in your house for emergencies (where mobile phone won't work because the system is over loaded with too many people trying to make phone calls) . I saw this very cool looking cordless phone in Germany and I was wondering if I bought and hooked it up here at home to use as my land line and home answering machine - will it work? I know I would have to use an electrical converter - but what about the actual phone cord? Does the phone cord need a converter as well? I haven't been able to find anything on the internet about this. Again, this is for an old fashioned, land line. A "Home Phone" not a "Mobile Phone". Thanks in advance everyone!

Cell phones? Okay, I'm a complete loser when it comes to cell phones. Can somebody please explain to me what to do when getting one? What's a plan? Do I buy a phone from my family's company? For example, if my family uses telus, can I only get phones from telus? Which plans do you recommend? Where can I get a phone I want besides online? For example, when I get a Sony Ericcson phone, do I have to phone telus to register it or what? How do I register a phone? Or...can I just use it right away? If it makes it any easier, please explain step by step what to do when I first get a cell phone, instead of answering my stupid questions. Thanks

Cell phones--should two people use a family plan or pay as you go? My wife and I want to each get a cell phone that will be used minimally--emergencies, short questions, etc. Neither of us plan to use the phone very much at all. We're in the Washington DC area. I think I'd prefer a Verizon or Sprint-based phone because I've heard complaints of spotty coverage from some people on other networks. Considering our plan to use the phone fairly infrequently, would it be best to get two pay-as-you-go phones or a family plan (if there is one) for the two phones? If the difference in costs was not much, I'd want the two phones without paying for each minute, but I suspect that the difference in price (and the required contract) may lead me to get the pay-as-you-go phones (TracFone, Virgin Mobile, etc.). Thanks for your responses.

How can you transfer ringers to different phones? My sister and I both have Bluetooth Enabled phones. Is there anyway I can send a ringer from my phone to her phone?

Where do I find a resource on how cell phones work and their components? I am looking for a book, e-book, online resource or some kind of resource material that has information on how cell phones work and each individual component (generically of course), down to what each piece on the motherboard is and does. Where can I find something anything like this? I've been to How Stuff Works, so don't mention that one. I don't want some summaries of the system and their connections to towers. I want a detailed list and diagram of components, how they are assembled and what they do. I want details and technical information.

Phones? Phones? Phones? I recently had a really crummy LG phone. It broke. I need to look into a new phone. My plan expires in like 2 years. I originally was looking into an enV, but I can't cough up that much money for a phone. I can't wait 2 more years either and I want a new phone. I'd rather have a cool phone than them to fix it. So, I am a Verizon customer and I want to know phones like enVs that are cool with their QWERTY keyboards and stuff. I'm looking into an Alias. Can someone tell me how much that would cost to get it before my plan expires? Also, any other cheap(ish) phone suggestions that are like Alias's and enV's are helpful!

New phones released summer of 2007? I am about to purchase a cell phone near the end of May. The phone I would like to be is a T-Mobile Sidekick 3. I don't know whether to buy this phone then, or wait until the middle of the summer to buy a newer phone. I need to know which phones are being released then so I know how much money to save and which phone I would want to buy. I'm looking for a phone similar to the Sidekick or maybe a Blackberry. I would also like a website where I can see pictures of the phone and other information. Thanks! :]
