5. SET UP OR CHANGE AREA CODES
Everyone has at least one local area code. Many areas of the country now have
additional local area codes. These local area codes are area codes, other than your

of programming prompts allow you to set up your phone to recognize those local
area codes, which are particularly important for call records.
