Chekhov Posted November 17, 2023 Share Posted November 17, 2023 Could anyone please help me , and others, with a problem I have with my Nokia 110 4G. It regularly starts (and sometimes completes) calling emergency whilst it's in my pocket, even though the keypad is in "Locked" mode. The Lock mode disables all the number keys apart from 1 and 9.... This morning it actually got through and that obviously wastes everyone's time..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
*Wallace* Posted November 17, 2023 Share Posted November 17, 2023 Never heard of a phone doing this it’s very strange. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
*Wallace* Posted November 17, 2023 Share Posted November 17, 2023 I did a bit of Googling and some people say the side button getting accidentally pressed a few times may do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gormenghast Posted November 17, 2023 Share Posted November 17, 2023 My son calls these pocket calls. It's due to phone being in a tight pocket and your movement presses the 9 button. Try a looser pocket. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for your answer W, but my phone does not have a side button. I have played about with it and can confirm that when in "lock" mode the 1 and 9 number keys still work. I assume that is done on purpose to ensure the emergency services can always be phoned easily, but it's actually a bit of a silly idea ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chekhov Posted November 20, 2023 Author Share Posted November 20, 2023 I spent a while getting onto Nokia's technical this morning and they said there was no way to lock numbers 1 and 9, which, I have to say, is absolutely stupid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A bit of superglue would do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
