Free Stuff n' Phones
Try some of this the next time you go to Namco Station at the Trafford Center arcade, try this and you're sure to have loads of fun.
Free Stuff
Pinball Machines
On the right hand side under the pinball machine, there should be a little
switch in a hole (scratch around for it), next flick the switch, don't be alarmed
the machine will turn off but turn it back on again whilst holding both flippers
down by flicking and voila a test credit!
Basketball Game
Where you throw the balls into hoops, here is how you can get those balls
without dishing out that cash. First check if any cameras or guards are
nearby, if there are any don't bother as this is too risky. On the
underneath of the machine on the right hand side you should feel some
wires, then not long after you should feel a hook like thingy, pull it and
keep it down and voila about 6 balls will come down like magic!! Then you
can get all the tokens you need for that prize toy!!
Phone Stuff
(Condensed cos they are boring now)
Nokia
Try entering *#0000# this gives you, depending on make and mode, things like hours of total use to model number.
Entering *#9272689# or
*#927072689#, will
bring up the engineers menu (depending on model) where the only way out is to turn off the phone.
Your Nokia 3210 phone can be programmed to pick up radar speed traps, when programmed your cell
phone picks up the radar and alerts you on the message alert tone.
1. Select settings menu
2. Select security settings
3. Select closed user group
4. Select on
5. Enter 00000
6. Press ok
7. Clear back to normal, within a few seconds your phone will display a radar sign with five
zero's next to it. It is now activated.
Cell info display needs to be de-activated.
Settings -> Phone Settings -> Cell Info display
Each time you turn off your phone, or even each time you loose contact with your carrier,
you'll have to activate it again... Done by steps 1 through 5, but the number (00000) will be
already on the screen as default.
Sagem
Enter the menu and press *,this will bring up another menu giving details of version model and battery voltage amongst others, if you know your 10 digit SIM password you can change networks, if like me you don't and type it in incorrectly then when you return all that is there is a timer counting down from 30 when it reaches 0,it will ask you to enter a password, do it wrong and the timer increases up to 2 minutes.
Press **04* the phone will ask you to enter your PIN blah blah blah, it then will tell you that you have changed your PIN number, nothing special. Same with **05* only with your PUK, so its not a good idea to mess with that one.
All GSM phones
Pressing *#06# shows your IMEI number.
Ericcson
Take out your SIM card, and turn on the phone. Where it says 'Insert Card' type **04*0000*0000*0000*0000# then after it shows Wrong Pin quickly press 'No'. Depending on the model, you will have some access to the options and menus on the phone.
