    Yes indeed. i asked my Senior, who owns the lumia 1020 (elephanting cool phone :-D ) if it already is lying face-down you can flip it to see who´s calling and by flipping it again, it quiets down...

        Well it does, but they don't seem to do any harm. The one around the earth stops us from frying in fact.

              That is an exceptionally good point. The knackered connector is usually one of the things which prompts me to get a new phone!

                That works on all phones, if you flip them hard enough.

                    Well, it's the nuts basically. I put my phone on its pad and it charges. Every phone should do this.

                      Inductive Charging[^] is what you are talking about. It is a good idea but there are some disadvantages too, so maybe not every phone but I would like to see it done in a standard way and adopted widely. (Wouldn't it be nice to set your phone on a table at a restaurant or coffee shop and have it charge it.) Oh, anyone talking about health concerns from the magnetic fields should follow the link and read what this is. (The fields are small and localized. It's NOT some gigantic field to cover your house/office/...)

                          I think a localized electromagnetic source whose purpose is to transmit energy must be much more harmful than the Earth magnetic field. The mere fact that the earth magnetic field has been existing for ages means the human being has evolved with it as a constraint, and has adapted. This cannot be the case for small micro-waves oven charging iShits.

                          I think ultraviolet light is a lot more damaging than EMF. And life on Earth has evolved with UV light, but it still causes cancer. Anyway, the radiation of which you speak is non-ionizing radiation. There is no real proof that it does any harm.

                          The difficult we do right away... ...the impossible takes slightly longer.

                              I have the Nokia as well, the inductive charging feature is way under marketed. To nice for those of us on call to just be able to pick the darn phone up to answer a call. For the times that the cord is needed putting on the top of the phone is a huge pain. It's always in the way.


                              Common sense is admitting there is cause and effect and that you can exert some control over what you understand.
