So I found a cellphone, it looks like it was abandoned so I hope the owner doesn't want it back. Anyways, I know something about circuitry and stuff like that and I was wondering what could I do with it, like some magnetic radio interferer to block radio signals, any ideas/advices?

I found a cell phone once. I was going to replace the card, buy a charger for it and register it under a fake name but some fool bought it from me for far more than it was worth

CDMA is still used in the USA... I just bought a CDMA (Sprint PCS system, but prepaid service) phone for $20.

So this one time, when I was bored, I chucked my old cellphone at my roommate. He got pissed.

A few days later I was beamed by it.

go to a public place and get in a really loud heated argument over the phone. Then smash the phone on the ground and have fake blood come out of your ears.

keep it charged and in your car, you can still call 911 with it. keep it turned off untill you use it so the batteries with stay good.

It depends what kind it is. If it's a RAZR/SLVR/ROKR/PEBL/RIZR/KRZR, keep it and mod it. I have both a SLVR and 2 RAZRs, and they are both modded to the extreme.

if you can get a data cable for it there is a custom firmware circulating that will allow it to pick up all the text messages running though the tower its connected to. however sending things with it is a little harder....

What part of this thread screams DIY to you? He isn't trying to build anything, he wants ideas of what to use an extra cell phone for. DIY is for building shit.
