Ben T asked:

Now, my brother put my mum’s mobile in the microwave, he is only 2, so it is understandable But what would actually happen inside of the phone? She has a memory card in there also, so would it wipe the photos and data from it?Mydomain.com

Does my mobile phone communicate with the base-station tower every now and then?

Mk asked: Sometimes when i leave the mobile phone close to the TV, the TV seems to detect some signal from the mobile phone. What is happening?
Is the mobile phone sending some packets to the basestation or the other way around? What are these packets and why is this communication important?Mydomain.com
