Friends, in Vietnam, a SIM card costs $5 (VND 100,000) you can buy at any office cellular communication. There is absolutely no difference which company: Viettel, Mobifone, Vinafone.
Previously, SIM cards were freely sold in any supermarket and at the airport and travel agencies (Perhaps they are still being sold). Now, in order for the SIM card to work, you need to come to the cellular office with a passport and sign an agreement.
I'll tell you my experience of connecting to the Internet. If you are not satisfied internet wi-fi which is present almost everywhere in Nha Trang: in hotels, restaurants in shopping centers.
I do not have enough external third-party Internet via wi-fi - since I always have to be in touch, even if the electricity is cut off abruptly! Although power outages are not frequent in Nha Trang a couple of times a year.
So how to connect Mobile Internet for iPad or iPhone or for laptop (then via 3G modem)
1. We buy a sim card and cut it to the desired size (if for an iPad or iPhone). I will help you cut it correctly where you bought the SIM card.
I bought a sim mobile operator: Mobifon for VND95,000
2. We replenish the balance for the required amount.
I topped up 200,000 vnd
How to replenish the balance? In stores or travel agencies in Nha Trang, paper cards are sold for each operator, different in denomination: 20,000, 50,000, 100,000, 200,000 dong. Such cards used to be in Russia: you need to erase the silver paint under which the secret code.
Then on the phone dial: *100* secret number# call. After that, an SMS comes stating that the money has been credited to the account.
3. Choose a tariff plan and send SMS.
If your mobile operator is Vinaphone
0.6 GB price 70,000 VND - send SMS "DK MAX" to 888;
1.2 GB price 100,000 VND - send SMS "DK MAX100" to 888;
3 GB price 200,000 VND - send SMS "DK MAX200" to 888.
If your mobile operator: Viettel
0.6 GB price 70,000 VND - send SMS "MiMax" to 191;
1.2 GB price 90,000 VND - send SMS "MiMax90" to 191;
1.5 GB price 120,000 VND - send SMS "Dmax" to 191;
3 GB price 200,000 VND - send SMS "Dmax200" to 191.
If your mobile operator: Mobifone
0.6 GB price 70,000 VND - send SMS "DK MIU" to 999;
1.5 GB price 120,000 VND - send SMS "DK M120" to 999;
3 GB price 200,000 VND - send SMS "DK BMIU" to 999.
I chose for myself the third option for Mobifon for 200.000 and I can say that all sites open well - quickly, but the video is viewed poorly. This is still not an option for working on the Internet, but in order to always be in touch or look for information.
I have an iPad - SMS is not sent from it, so at first I did all the manipulations with replenishing the account and choosing a tariff on the phone, and then I moved the SIM card to the iPad.
When a month passes and the mobile Internet turns off, I again follow the steps described above with the SIM card through the phone, and then rearrange it again into the iPad
and finally
How to call Russia from Vietnam?
dial: +7 and a phone number without the first eight, for example: +7 495 3456789
The cost of 1 minute of a call to Russia is almost the same for all mobile operators: Vietel, Mobifon, Vinafon = 5,000 VND.
How to check the account balance on the phone in Vietnam?
Dial: *101# call
After that, an SMS will come with information about the state of the balance on the SIM card.
Getting access to a cell phone to listen to it is actually not that difficult. However, there are ways to prevent the invasion of your privacy.
Cellular telephone each of us has. When was the last time you left home without your cell phone? It must have been by accident. It's no secret that we use phones very often, we are already actually dependent on them and their capabilities.
We're not trying to scare you, but do you know how easy it is to access them from outside? If someone wants to eavesdrop on your conversations, read SMS messages and track you using GPS, they will do it.
There are many reasons why a person wants to eavesdrop on someone else's telephone conversation. It can be a curious boss, a jealous spouse, a burglar or a telephone bully.
It's illegal to spy on someone's phone without the owner's permission, but it happens. It doesn't have to happen to you, but if you suspect that someone is reading your SMS, then here are a few useful tips about how to figure out the villain.
Battery temperature
One of the likely indicators of the presence of "wiretapping" is the battery. Feel your phone while you're not using it - if it's warm or even hot, it's still in use. Keep in mind that heat comes primarily from overuse. The battery may only be hot if the phone has been in use for some time.
Phone drains very fast
Charge your mobile phone more often than usual - get another sign of a potential threat. If you haven't been using your gadget more than usual, it's possible that your phone is being used by someone without your knowledge. When a mobile phone is tapped, it loses battery much faster. A bugged mobile phone is constantly recording conversations in the room, even if it looks like it is lying idle.
You can use the BatteryLife LX or Battery LED apps for iPhone to monitor your battery drain rate.
Note: Mobile phones tend to lose maximum battery power over time. If your phone is more than a year old, then the battery capacity will steadily decrease depending on the intensity of use.
Turn off delay
When you turn off your phone and watch big delay, the backlight staying on for a long time, or just the phone refusing to turn off, it's possible you're hooked. Always notice unusual phone behavior. Although, the described problems can be caused by malfunctions in the hardware or software of the phone.
strange activity
When your phone is working, does it happen that the backlight suddenly lights up, some applications are installed by themselves, does it spontaneously turn off? Strange behavior may be a signal that someone is remotely controlling this device. By the way, this can also happen due to interference in data transmission.
background noise
When you talk, the phone "on tap" can interfere. Something like echoes, electric shocks, clicks - these sounds can be caused environment, interference with the connection ... or the fact that someone listens to you. If you hear a pulsing noise from your phone when you're not using it, it could be a serious problem.
Interference
If you use your phone in close proximity to others electronic devices(like a TV) and it interferes with them, then this may be due to the presence of foreign devices in the mobile phone case. In most cases, interference is normal, but if it occurs when you are not using the phone, then this may well mean that you are "under the hood".
Become a disinformer
If you suspect that your phone conversation is being tapped or recorded by someone you know, you can try to misinform the spy in order to accurately confirm this suspicion. Give someone you trust your "secret" personal information over the phone. If you find out later that outsiders found out, then that might be a yes answer.
Get help
If you have reason to believe that your mobile phone is being tapped, seek help. The police are also an option, as they have the equipment to check the phone, but you should only go down this path if you are sure that you are being tapped. For example, if the information that you once discussed with a reliable business partner “leaked” in an amazing way, and in no other way could anyone know about it.
Conclusion
Still, don't be paranoid.
In varying degrees, the above signs were noted by literally everyone.
The chances of being "hooked" by someone are very small. Most of the problems described above can be explained by poor communication, an old battery, firmware glitches - but there are some signs that you should pay attention to in any case. If you are a Good Samaritan, then you have every chance that your phone is clean.
If you want to be safe, then you should lock your phone with a password and keep it with you at all times.
Do not hope that simply by turning off the phone with the button you can protect yourself from wiretapping. The microphone does not turn off, and the location of the device is tracked.
If you are not using it, remove the battery from the compartment to be sure that you are not being tapped. Moreover, if you just need to become invisible for billing, you need to remove the battery without first turning off the phone with the button.

Russia has created a system for intercepting mobile conversations in offices
InfoWatch has developed a system that will allow employers to intercept employees' cell phone conversations in the office. With its help, it is proposed to deal with the leakage of confidential information
Natalya Kaspersky's InfoWatch company has developed a solution that will allow employers to intercept and analyze the content of employee conversations on their mobile phones. The Kommersant newspaper writes about this, citing several sources in Russian IT companies and an employee of the federal mobile operator.
Alexey Raevsky, CEO of Zecurion, who also heard about the development of this system, explained to the publication that this is a kind of
“femtocell (equipment for amplifying a cellular signal), which should be installed at the customer’s site and connected to the mobile operator’s network, but the voice traffic passing through it will be intercepted, translated into text using speech recognition systems and then analyzed by keywords for the transmission of confidential information.
The development of a prototype of this system was confirmed to the publication by Kaspersky herself. According to her, the manufacturer of the device is a third-party organization, she refused to disclose the partner.
“It is planned that the hardware device installed in the company will be integrated with the core of the cellular operator's network so that it becomes a trusted base station of the cellular operator. Then this base station will intercept voice traffic from mobile phones that are in its coverage area.
She told.
added Kaspersky. She assured that in this case, calls from other SIM cards belonging to employees or customers and partners coming to the company’s office “will be rejected by the device and forwarded to standard base stations cellular operators.
Today I will try to describe the most important points and "pitfalls" that most people face when self installation. In most cases, the installation process is fairly easy, but you must follow the instructions carefully to make sure everything works correctly.
So, basically, the installation process software is the same for all versions of programs, but there are minor differences for each of the platforms - Android, Symbian, iOS, and so on.
Installation principle:
- The phone must be in your hands, not password-protected and not blocked, or you know the password to unlock it! You should have enough time to calmly install the software!
- Choose for your cell phone
- We give you a link to download the program
- Download the program to your phone - via a web browser, or copy it directly to your phone from your computer, or transfer it from your phone to the phone that you want to control via bluetooth
- Install the program
- Activate the program - enter a unique registration key that we will give you
- Reboot your phone
- Customize the program, test
- Delete all "traces of your activity" - clean the download history, delete the installation file, clean the history of your calls and SMS that you left when testing the program.
As you can see, the installation process is quite easy! But this is only an approximate sequence - for some programs, you first need to Jailbreak (for iPhones and other devices on the iOS platform) or get Root rights for devices under Android control. You must strictly follow our instructions for each program. All detailed instructions we send our customers by email or tell and help with the installation via Skype.
How long does the installation take?
The process itself takes only 5 minutes - when you know what you are doing. If you are installing the program for the first time, then expect that it will take you about 40 minutes! As practice shows, simple instructions can suddenly seem very complicated if you do everything in a hurry.
And keep in mind, before installing the program, you may have to spend time on preparatory steps:
- If you have selected a program on the iPhone, then before you install the program, you need to! The jailbreak process differs depending on the firmware version on the phone, so I recommend that you first search the Internet for instructions on how to jailbreak on your phone, for example, by searching for "jailbreake ios 5.1.1" or "jailbreake ios 6.1.2"
- If you have chosen an Android program and want the "listening to the phone's real-time environment" function to work, you need to root it. How to get root rights for your phone, look on the Internet yourself, because for almost every Android phone model, the rooting process is different!
So, the phone is in your hands, there is no password on it, you have already performed the preliminary steps (Jelbreak or Rooting), studied our instructions and are ready to install the program yourself ... What else do you need to know ??
"Pitfalls" or "what you need to know so that there are no problems during installation":
- How to enable GPS on iPhone - go to the menu "Settings" -\u003e "Privacy" -\u003e "Geolocation" and turn on geolocation completely, or in manual mode leave only the necessary services.
- How to enable GPS on Android - go to the menu "Settings" -\u003e "Location" turn on GPS satellites.
- How to enable GPS in Symbian — go to the menu Options > Settings. Applications > Location > Positioning Methods > Assisted GPS (A-GPS). On Nokia Belle FP1 devices: Select Menu > Settings > Phone settings. Applications > Location. > Find my location > Positioning methods > Assisted GPS (A-GPS).
- How to enable GPS on BlackBerry — On the home screen or in a folder, click the Options icon. Click Device > Location Settings. Set the Location Services field to On. location determination. Press the key Picture of the Menu key > Save.
Well, that seems to be all ... in any case, we are always in touch and will help you with installing and configuring programs.

As for such programs, there are many of them on the Internet. I decided to check if such applications really work. Many promise to listen to a mobile phone for free, but what do we actually see? One scammer comes across! I reviewed a large number of software, but simply did not find anything really working. But I caught the eye of an interesting service that provides opportunities Reserve copy information. It is about him that I will tell further.
The versatility of the service lies in the support of a large number of applications from which you can collect the history of correspondence. Who will benefit from this? Yes, to anyone, because you cannot be insured against the accidental loss of a smartphone. If you use your phone for business and office communications, it's a good idea to make regular backups. This service is able to perform such operations independently, in a fully automatic mode!
I installed a special application in Android that collects and archives data, and then sends it to the server. There is Personal Area which no third party can gain access to. Only the person who installed and configured the application. As for the supported software, there are clients for almost everyone social networks and messengers! Vkontakte, Facebook, Odnoklassniki, My World, WhatsApp, Skype, Viber, ICQ - this is not a complete list.
But what happens if an outsider installs such an application for you? Free listening to a mobile phone will be possible simply due to the fact that the records of conversations are stored in backup. And it doesn’t matter at all whether it will be the application described above, or some other, but with the same functions. Antiviruses do not block such software, since there is no virus code in it. And the uninstall protection will not let you get rid of the program standard means mobile OS.
I realized one thing: you should treat your mobile phone more carefully! Do not leave it unattended in the office, do not pass it on to unfamiliar people! As for the described service, the following is a link to a useful video. In it, I will talk about how to properly install the program and configure it. But remember that you cannot use such an application on someone else's mobile phone! Personal life is confidential, and few phone owners would like this.
