Revision history [back]

Today something happened to me for the first time that shouldn't happen to anyone: I somehow pocket dialed to emergency service (112).

The device was in my front jeans pocket, screen facing to my leg, and I was lifting some boxes from under the table to the table and vice versa. And right after that I heard a woman answering the call. (I don't know if the speaker turns on automatically when making an emergency call, or was that turned on also by mistake.)

I'm also pretty sure my lock time (30 mins) was reached and the device was locked by the lock code.

Pocket dialing to emergency services should never ever happen, because it drains on emergency service operators time, and there might be someone else in the line needing help for a real emergency. So how to prevent those?
