I had a SIM tray with cracked contacts and yes, it could still dial 911. But to those of you who say that this is true in America, 911 doesn't exist outside of the US and Canada. EU uses 112 and 999, I believe. That is definitely true. I had a SIM tray with cracked contacts and yes, it could still dial 911.

Most phones these days just say "no service" but some phones are programmed to say things like "SOS" or "Emergency calls only" This is correct.

But all phones can call 911 without it. 911 is essentially an unlocked number. You should remove that tip before people call their emergency lines by accident. As an example. If im with a carrier and im out of their towers range but within a competitors. 911 is the only call that can still go through. Sim or no. The phone wont show any service without a sim.

I mean, how would you connect to any network to make any call if there is no service, right?
