NGM – Special Functions
Calls & SMS firewall
 The Black List of contacts (phone numbers) allows everyone to call you or send messages to you, except
for the members of the Black List.
When this access control function is active, a blacklisted caller will just hear busy tone all the time; later,
you will get a network SMS alert (if allowed in your network services) informing you about the number of
the caller who was trying to contact you. Messages received from a blacklisted number will be
automatically transferred to the Junkbox folder.
 The White List of contacts allows nobody to call you or send messages to you, except for the members of
the White List. When this access control function is active, a non-whitelisted caller will just hear busy tone
all the time; later, you will get a network SMS alert (if allowed in your network services) informing you
about the number of the caller who was trying to contact you.
Messages received from a non-whitelisted number will be automatically transferred to the Junkbox folder.
Regardless of White and Black list, you can also block the calls coming from anonymous callers or from
callers not stored in the Phonebook.

Phone control
Phone Control is a function that has been designed to improve mobile device users' privacy and security. It is
composed of two applications (SIM binding and Remote Control, plus Trusted Numbers), allowing the user to
manage security in different modes.
 SIM binding: The SIM binding function is offered to help end-user to find his phone in case it has been
lost or stolen. The function is based on the binding between SIM card and phone: the device is able to
recognize when a different SIM card is inserted into the phone and immediately alerts by SMS the 5
trusted numbers previously set by the owner. By activating this option, the phone password will be
requested (1122 preset, changeable in Settings > Security settings > Change password).
The user must first insert at least one trusted number for SMS notification. From Phone Control menu,
select ―Trusted Numbers‖ and insert up to 5 phone numbers to receive the message. Select
―Activation‖ in SIM Binding and choose ―On‖ to enable the function.
After completing the configuration, at every start-up the phone will check the presence of the SIM cards to
which it is bound to. If the two SIM cards are inverted or one of them has been removed, the phone still
starts regularly.
