HOW MOBILE PHONES WORKS & HOW TO BUY A MOBILE PHONE
The SIM (Subscriber Identity Module) card holds a microchip and slips into the handset allowing you access to a mobile phone network. This network is made up of a series of base stations that send signals used by mobile phones. The area covered by each of these base stations is called a cell and cells overlap to make up a coverage area. Whenever you switch a mobile phone on it will connect to the nearest base station. As you move around you may get closer to another base station in another cell. When this happens, the network will automatically switch your phone to the other base station.
If the base station that your phone is switched to is already working to its full capacity it cannot take in your signal. If this happens you may get a drop out and your phone will not work in that area. Dropped calls can also happen when you are in an area where cells do not overlap.
If you are on a plan you will still need to pay the monthly contract fee. Some network providers offer insurance for your mobile but make sure you read the conditions and any exclusions before buying it.
If you use security features like PIN numbers and code locks your mobile is more likely to be recovered in the event of theft. And you are less likely to have to pay for calls a thief might try and make! If you are unsure how to use these features your retailer will be happy to help.
Engraving your initials and driver's licence number on both the phone and battery makes your mobile harder for a thief to sell.
Press *#06# to find out your phone's unique International Mobile Equipment Identity number. Note the number down and keep the details in a safe place.
If you've bought both the handset and connection to a mobile phone network with a network service provider you will need to see that provider about problems with either the handset or the service connection. If you have bought a package from a retailer, problems with the handset may need to be directed to the retailer, while problems with the service to the mobile network should be directed to the network service provider. Check your paperwork, it should be explained there. If you have billing problems you should contact the number supplied on the bill.
In all cases the first step is to contact the retailer or network service provider to try and sort out the problem. Be calm and assertive and have any documentation such as the network service connection agreement, receipt or bill handy. Ask to speak to a supervisor or manager.
If you are still unsuccessful, contact the Telecommunications Industry Ombudsman (TIO) for problems with a network service provider on 1800 062 058 or at www.tio.com.au or Fair Trading for problems with a retailer concerning a handset or pre-paid mobile phones. The TIO will also investigate complaints about faulty handsets where the handset was bought as part of a contract or bundled deal.
If the base station that your phone is switched to is already working to its full capacity it cannot take in your signal. If this happens you may get a drop out and your phone will not work in that area. Dropped calls can also happen when you are in an area where cells do not overlap.
Coverage
Before selecting a particular mobile phone network you need to make sure that the network covers the areas where you will be using the phone. To do this you can look at coverage maps. These maps show you the geographic areas that are covered by specific network service providers. However, coverage maps don't show flat spots or shadows where the phone will not receive a good signal. To find out precisely if the areas that you are interested in are covered you should contact the network service provider directly.Before you buy a handset
Before you decide to buy a handset check the following:- that your handset has an A-Tick. The A-Tick is a compliance mark developed by the Australian Communications and Media Authority (ACMA) for telecommunications equipment. It gives consumers confidence that a telecommunications product meets the safety and technical standards set by ACMA.
- clarify with the seller that the phone can do what you want it to do and have them put it in writing.
- the servicing agreement. Where will you need to take the handset for repairs if this is needed.
- the warranty. Are spare parts covered? Is the labour covered or will you need to pay for this separately?
How pre-paid works
If you don't want to sign a contract you can elect to pre-pay for your mobile phone service. These pre-paid services are referred to as "starter kits" and provide you with:- a SIM (Subscriber Identity Module) card that slips into the handset and allows you to access the mobile phone network.
- a limited number of call plans. You will need to choose one.
- a recharge card. These cards are similar to phone cards and hold a certain amount of call credits. You use up the call credits when making phone calls. How far the credits go will depend on how often you use the phone and the call plan that you have chosen.
- the terms and conditions of use.
What if your mobile phone is stolen?
If your phone is lost or stolen, contact your mobile phone company immediately to suspend your service. This will prevent unauthorised calls being made.If you are on a plan you will still need to pay the monthly contract fee. Some network providers offer insurance for your mobile but make sure you read the conditions and any exclusions before buying it.
If you use security features like PIN numbers and code locks your mobile is more likely to be recovered in the event of theft. And you are less likely to have to pay for calls a thief might try and make! If you are unsure how to use these features your retailer will be happy to help.

Things to consider when comparing mobile phone warranties
When you get a warranty with a handset there may be conditions attached. Make sure you read the warranty paperwork and know what is covered by the warranty. Clarify anything you are not sure of with the seller and get this in writing so there is no confusion later. Things to ask the seller include:- Where can the repairs be carried out?
- Are labour, transport and spare parts included?
- Is a substitute handset provided while repairs are being made?
- How long is the warranty?
When things go wrong with your mobile phone
First, identify the individual or organisation that you are contracted to, and check if the problem is covered by a warranty.If you've bought both the handset and connection to a mobile phone network with a network service provider you will need to see that provider about problems with either the handset or the service connection. If you have bought a package from a retailer, problems with the handset may need to be directed to the retailer, while problems with the service to the mobile network should be directed to the network service provider. Check your paperwork, it should be explained there. If you have billing problems you should contact the number supplied on the bill.

Love robots will end loneliness:-
A robot which can fall in love with its owner could help those suffering from loneliness, the Sun reported.
Funktionide, a pillow-like robot invented by German designer Stefan Ulrich, has special sensors that react to human touch to show when it is happy or in love.
Funktionide can wrap around its owner and even give them a cuddle. This conceptual shape-changing robot is used to relieve loneliness, using artificial muscle technology. Ulrich conducted research into plastics that change shape when an electric current is applied, called electro active polymers. Funktionide reacts to pressure, skin temperature and color to produce a response like a human reaction.
According to the Sun, Ulrich believes that one day robots could completely replace the need for a boyfriend or a girlfriend.
“People already bury themselves in possessions and shield themselves from real life with technology. So if robots and objects can fulfill all their emotional needs as well, why do they need other humans?” said Ulrich, the Sun reported.
In August, Telenoid R1 has been invented by Japanese Hiroshi Ishiguro. The robot represents the size of a small baby but has no arms or legs. Telenoid is a sensitive communication device, which the robot picks up the user’s movement through a webcam and then copies it.
“If a friend speaks from the telenoid, we can imagine the friend’s face on the telenoid’s face,” Ishiguro told the Daily Mail. “If we embrace it, we have the feeling, that we embrace the friend.”
Australians don’t like the landline:-
New figures from the Australian Communications and Media Authority show more Australians are hanging up the land-line in favour of mobiles.The figures show about 14% of mobile phone users no longer use a fixed-line telephone at home. The survey profiled about 18,000 users.
Of those people choosing to hang onto their fixed lines, about 33% said it was cheaper and more convenient than mobiles, and 13% said it was because they offer better quality or a better service. About 7% said they keep fixed line for internet connections.The ACMA figures show the number of fixed-line lines remained at 10.7 million since June 2000, but the number of mobile connections has increased by 16.2 million in the same amount of time.
The world's leading mobile phone maker Nokia acknowledged on Friday some of its new flagship N8 smartphones, which it hopes will help re-take lost market share, are simply dying.
Some customers are reporting that their N8 turned off unexpectedly without any way to turn them back on, or refused to power on at all.
"It's a very small number of phones, we don't have exact numbers," company spokesman Tapani Kaskinen said.

The company said that complaints of the problems have emerged in the press in recent days, prompting Nokia to release a video interview Thursday with executive vice president Niklas Savander in which he said he was "concerned" about the flaw.
"We have dressed it down to the way we assemble the engines," Savander said, adding that the company has taken "precautionary measures" across their product line to weed out the problem.
The problem is covered by the phone's warranty, and if the original handset can't be fixed then the customer will be given a new one, Kaskinen said.
The N8, which is the company's first handset to run the Symbian 3 platform, was released in October.
It is the company's push to win back smartphone market share which has been pecked away over the past year by Apple's iPhone, Research in Motion's Blackberry, and handsets running Google's Android operating platform.
On Thursday, Fitch ratings agency downgraded Nokia to BBB+ from A-, citing a loss of overall market share as well as market share for the Symbian operating system.
