    I think you can call 911 on a locked iPhone, it’s a safety thing.

    Yes, he said all you do is press two of the 3 buttons on the side. Apparently you can call 911 from my locked LG v40, and probably every Android, for some safety reason.

    Cool ad...personally, the saws sounds (notes) sound "synthetic" to me (electronically generated)

    Do you have an Android phone? My husband connected his phone to a computer, added our cat's purr to a certain directory, and made it his ringtone.

    I have a pair of Under Armour shorts that I am alway butt dialing people with. Doesn’t happen with my other clothing. I think it has something to do with the synthetic material it’s made out of. It also is always skipping songs or pausing them on me too.

    Nailed it. Yes, that was electronically, taking a sample from a saw recording, then just pitch changing it. Autotune style.

    Even a phone that has no account active will call 911. The women’s shelter gives donated phones to women in their care, who don’t have a phone active or shut it down to avoid stalker gps tracking

    Yeah, I knew about that.
    That's why we don't throw out the old nokia phones from 2000 . The batteries on those last forever it seems.

    Oh well, if we ever get together with my husband along, he'll hook you up! He works at a high-end audio company, and has all the toys.
