This is not a myth. My first cousin suffered 2nd degree burn caused by explosion ignited by a cell phone signal he used as flash light to start up a generator back in 2009. He spent 5 months at the Portharcourt teaching hospital. Be warned. 2 Likes |

Proudlyngwa: Yeah, you are right and many thanks for reminding everyone... That's why I said those are little safety and precautionary measures put in place. Anything that can go wrong will go wrong(Murphy's Law).....But you still have to do your best to prevent it. |

stblessing:Just as you said, they are Stories. One of the greatest lessons I have learnt in life is to believe a story without real logical /scientific backing.. We will just chase shadows... The fact that an eye witness saw something doesn't make me it true.. Most witnesses base their conclusions on what they have been told in the past.. |

All these are grammatical nonsense. I know at least two people who have died by this. one was using it in the kitchen while cooking and the other at the gas station. Theory is good but now i'm talking reality. there are lots of Chinese knock-offs phones in the market now. What are the things to be kept in mind while buying mobile phones? Buy a branded phone as far as possible. Ensure that the phone has a proper IMEI number, which is a code that identifies each phone. Check that the number on the phone corresponds to that on the box and receipts. It is considered wise to check the accessories such as earphones, battery and charger. Make sure the battery description such as voltage value matches with that of the charger to avoid overcharging which sometimes lead to explosion of handset.
