A mobile phone is configured to detect emergency events and control services enabled on the mobile phone in response to the emergency events. The mobile phone may be configured to detect events such as the mobile phone being turned off or a battery being removed. When the mobile phone detects an event, the mobile phone enables one or more emergency services on the mobile phone to collect and transmit data that may be used by emergency personnel. Other services may be disabled on the mobile phone to conserve battery power.
