Ask your mobile operator to disable premium rate charging – although somehow it’s true as your operator can disable calling to such number, it can’t disable texting If you know such carrier, feel free to post a comment.
On phones with Windows Mobile, remove the HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\SimToolkit.UI from the registry – this was something that I spoke of, but again, like the Android case, your SIM card still initiates commands, even though you can’t access the applications storedģ. On phones with Android you should remove the STK.apk application – right, but what if your phone is not rooted? Also since I’m not much into software / programming, I really doubt this would work because you will indeed not be able to access the SIM Toolkit application from your phone, but that doesn’t mean that your phone won’t be able to process STK commands issued by your SIM cardĢ.
