How to Find Names With Cell Phone Numbers

1. Subscribe to a reverse phone service such as Intelius or Reverse Phone Detective for approximately $20. These services provide detailed, current information about the user of the cell phone number. Free services such as National Cellular Directory and Free Reverse Cell Phone Directory allow you to trace cell phone numbers at no cost, but in return you must provide personal information like your own name and cell phone number.
2. Type the cell phone number into a search engine. With so many social networking and business sites, the Internet has become a huge storage medium for personal information. Although using a search engine may be the easiest way to find the name connected with a cell phone, it requires a little luck because the person would have had to list his cell phone number someplace on the Internet where public search bots could detect and retrieve it.
3. Search an online cell phone directory. Sites like NonPublished.com release limited information to searchers, but they do provide the first and last names of unlisted cell phone members. If you search for the carrier and city on free cell phone directories, the information may be outdated if the person you seek recently changed cell phone carriers or relocated.

How Do I Get Free Weather RADAR on My Sprint Phone?

1. Launch your phone’s web browser. You can use any browser, from the most basic phones to the latest Sprint Android Smartphone.
2. Enter the NWS Uniform Resource Locator (URL) into the browser’s address bar, typing in the address as you would any other website. Enter the WAP address (cell.weather.gov) for the simplest phones, and the mobile URL (mobile.srh.weather.gov) for more elaborate phones. You may have to experiment to see which address works best for your phone.
3. Scroll down and choose the hyperlink relating NWS regional radars covering the region that you’d like to monitor. Choose the nearest radar. For example, if you are in Los Angeles, you’d choose the “Los Angeles” link. The radar will display on your screen. If the image displays too small and you have a smart phone, click on the “Hi Res Image” link.
4. Click on “Radar Loop” or “Hi Res Radar Loop” to see the radar in time-lapse motion.

How to Get Free Games for Verizon Phones

1. Navigate to a free game website. Most websites only include the word 'free' to attract traffic via search engines. Two of the most reliable, however, are MoBango and MobilRated (see Resources section). These sites have free downloadable games that will work on your Verizon cell phone.
2. Select your carrier. At either site, you must first select the carrier of your cellular phone; in this case you would select 'Verizon.' For MobilRated, select the round 'Set Mobile' button in the upper-left corner. For MoBango, you will need to 'Sign Up' first (upper-left corner) before selecting your mobile device.
3. Search for the application. You can search the applications by 'browsing' categories or typing in a specific name for the application you want. For example, in MobilRated, you can select the 'browse' button at the top of the screen or select from the list of application names on the left side of the screen.
4. Download the app to your computer. Both sites require you to download to your computer before you are allowed to download to your cell phone.
5. Connect your mobile device to your computer via Bluetooth connectivity (if your cell phone is Bluetooth enabled) or by using the USB cable provided with your cell phone.
6. Play your new game. After download has completed (you will receive a dialogue box indicating it is finished in most cases), you can then access the new game on your cell phone and play at your leisure. For example, on the LG Voyager, open the flip and touch 'Ok' on the Menu option. Then Select 'Get It Now' to view all games available. Touch 'Ok' again to select Games [3]. Other phones will vary and you should consult your phone's user manual.

How to Get Free 411 Service

1.
Google created a free 411 service that is paid for by business advertisers instead of phone company customers like you and me. In order to use the free 411 service, you simply need to dial 1-800-GOOG-411 from your cell phone. Click on the link below to see a video that Google made to introduce their new toll free directory assistance service.
2. Google's free 411 service asks you for the city and state, and the name of the listing that you are looking for. The directory assistance service is an automated system that is remarkably good at voice recognition. You simply speak the answers to the questions, and Google's computers figure out what you said.
3.
Finally, Google's free 411 service will tell you the number that you are looking for. If you are calling from a cell phone, you will also have the option to say 'text message' or 'map it,' which will prompt Google to send you a text message with the number or a map to the location.

How to Enter a Blacklist on SMS

1. Use your cellular service provider's SMS blocking options. Some providers allow you to set different blocking options at the customer service website. AT&T, for example, offers a 'Messaging Preferences' page, where you can block all SMS sent over email, SMS sent from specific email accounts or domains or all SMS. After choosing one of these options, AT&T will SMS a one-time code to the cellphone for authentication. Enter that code on the 'Messaging Preferences' webpage to have the selections take effect.
2. Install SMS-blocking software on your cellular phone. This is a more flexible alternative. For example, an app called 'iBlackList' allows iPhone users to filter SMS by a variety of criteria, either black- or white-listing them source by source. 'iBlackList' can be configured to ignore SMS from individual phone numbers or email addresses. You can protect your configuration with a password for additional security.
3. Write SMS-blocking software for the cellular phone, if the phone can run code that you develop. This is the most complex and most flexible alternative. The criteria that such an application can follow to black- or white-list an SMS are endless--they are limited only by your programming skill. For example, SMS could be blacklisted depending on how many previous SMS have been received from the same source, or depending on how many of them have actually been read by the user. The SMS-Popup Application webpage (see References) includes sample code for a telephone running the Android operating system.
