congrats
anyway.. I also not so sure about wheter its really like "flight mode" or what... Hope someone can confirm this...
well i dont reckon u to use tat method when u board a plane.. few reasons:
1. tat is not the designated flight mode
2. even no network is selected, but not sure if radio reception is still running in background or totally turn off (radio reception is prohibited during flight)
3. when the plane is taking off, all devices hv to switch off, so when devices can be switched on again during the plane cruising mode, u hv to switch on the phone normally before u can do the trick.. switching on phone is not allowed except directly into flight mode.. tat is why choosing to start up the phone or flight mode is right after u switch on the phone before anything else.
4. even if u successful go into the tat flight mode trick, u cant prove much tat is the flight mode to the flight attendant (if asked), because tat is not the designated flight mode..
5. if u accidentally press the Ok (left select button) to select network, then the radio reception is definitely switched on to search for network, hence u may pose danger to urself and other passenger
