I'm sure you're very familiar with situations where for one reason or another, your spouse/family members/friends asked to take a look at your phone and play with it. Perhaps you just bought a new hot phone, or you happen to have a phone people around you planning to buy. Maybe it's the games in your phone that they are very interested in trying out. Many many more.
Question of the week: Would you let someone else play with your phone? If the answer is no, how do you reject the request to have your phone?
Full Version: Would You Let Someone Play With Your Phone?
Hi Arthur,
Sorry to assume few things - First hoping yours is the new kind of mobile phone which has security feature of Password lock where it unlocks the phone only after a 6-8 digit password. Second I guess the only way to keep the phone away from such miscreants (Yes I call them Miscreants because they invade the person's privacy & in today's world a mobile phone has become as much private as bathing in the bathroom by yourself) by telling them that you are expecting an important official call and would like the mobile phone to be with you all the time. Third I think you could install many of the security software available on the net here on mobile9 or getjar or any other mobile site which will provide you with all types of S/W for your phone.
I hope I've answered your query though its largely incomplete to include the answer to any pestering from the doubting spouse.....
Cheers,
T.

neverrrrrrrrrr
IT VARIES FOR PERSON TO PERSON 
NO Man Never
normally
I hate it when someone plays with my phone, so if they want it I tell them that they don't understand this kind of phones. And it's true! A friend of mine has a Windows Mobile phone and still hasn't figured it out completely. I needed only a few days!
`when i touched your phone?? - Never - Then dont touch my phone too` 
noo 
NO! 
I would usually say, Im expecting a very important call or messege!

No No one Touch My Phone 
I pretend That i am not hearing what he says if he complete requesting i hide my phone in my bag then begin talking with him about something else

yes i will let them hand on it just with taking out the memo card!!! LOL because most of my private contents stored inside there not at the phone, unless u got private sms/mms not allow ppl to view
YES, but i say them : take care about my phone!
i had put a security code and when someone ask for my phone i give it to them and tell that i forgot my security code after that they return my phone
personal phones are supposedly for personal use only,, so i don't allow anyone to use it for for unnecessary reasons like games, extras,music,,but if it is for emergency, why not?
My answer is no
its happening with me lots of time that my friends ,my family members always want to play games,,first i kept a lot of games in my mobile but after when i felt now its enough .......all people want to playing again and with my phone,.........
SO after someday i deleted my all games,,,,,,and i have the reason i told to my friends that keypad of mobile phone is not good to playing game....

No!
I never let anyone touch my phone. My phone gets fingerprints all over it very quickly as it's like a mirror & I don't like getting other peoples big prints all over it!

i would simply ease away while holding my phone tightly..

Well,I wont let the phone to get in their hands.if they ask me,i'll begin to hear music or play games in my phone. If they continue to ask, i'll move away from the place pretending I am not hearing them. but if we fight they will suspect if I am having any secret(anything I don't want to let them know,ummm my 'private things') in my phone.GO PEACEFULLY

Why should I???
no never
...what's the big problem in letting others touch our phones??? 
It's a chance of show-off!! 
I wouldn't let them even take a glance at it if only I have a super simple cell like , say nokia 1100!! 
And it is for that very purpose( letting others explore) that we use the best looking themes, put on the best wallpapers etc, ain't it? Why to have a golden toy and Hide it? But for ..ehmm! 
personal files.. there are File Hiders, File explorer..etc.. so rock on

i cant say no lol
only my daughter and she's a kid and i actually ask which game and put that one on...but noboy else touches my cell
My daughter usually grabs my phone while I'm driving the car. I've gotten to the point that I don't put anything on my phone that I would not let my immediate family see. But it is funny how when I ask to see her new G-1 phone, the answer was flat out NO! So I waited until she was asleep. She's right, it's a cool phone.
I did it once and the result was, that i had a got damm problem so i had to send it in Till today i dont know what this guy did with it, but i would never let som1 play ´gain.
NO
NEVER
NEVER
yes,but not every one.
low battery man
im using now
waiting for an important call
chating with friends
NO NO NO ve yene de YOX !!!
i'd just say no 2 them, if they're wanting 2 play a game tell them 2 play a console. Phones r personal use, maybe santa will give them one if they've been good enough
yaa sure no problem
coz i have security code on my phone hahahhahaaaaaaaa

Well, its according who the person is? not all can play with my mobile.
Yeah.I need to say Yes.How can you reject each and every person who tries to have a look at the mobile? I don't think it is a right thing to stop someone from playing with my phone.
I may say the word play it safe depending upon the situation.
Although,it is my mobile,one kid comes and says that he will play the games for a few minutes,then I would say ok.
It depends on a particular human.I would definitely let someone play with the phone.

Well it depends, if he wanna play football with my phone I don't think so
.....
Sorry for joking, well, seriously I usually try to give my phone to any one who wants to try it. But I ask him to do it soon and in front of myself. And if I don't want to give my phone to the person.....hmmm...... I usually say I have to go right now.
