Dialing a special code gives you extra battery life.
Myth: Entering *3370# or some other code will unlock a reserve amount of battery to allow you to make another call.
True or false? False. Sure, it'd be nice if this trick really worked but, unfortunately, once a battery's drained, you're out of luck. One European Nokia executive even called this idea "pure science fiction." Some phones actually use codes like that to enhance voice quality, which decreases battery life. Instead, keep your phone charged and don't rely on this one.

Funny. I tried this very thing when my cell went down. It gave me about half of my power back and thats all it took to finish my call.

entering *3370# toggles enhanced full rate (EFR) on or off. which means you get better call quality but decreases battery performance. Turning it off doesn't bring a dead cellphone back to life but it does help to prolong your battery's performance.
