Ciphering is used to prevent any third party to eavesdrop your conversation. This is also used for data. |

ciphering is a sonyerisson/ericsson phone feature that scrambles our calls and messages that we have made for additional privacy.
note: it is network dependent, also, you may also experience to see a triangle that will appear on your phone's display with exclamation mark inside if incase your network is not providing such service.  |

What's this bullsh*t?! It is NOT a SE/Ericsson feature!! It must be supported by ALL mobiles! It is optional in networks.
Country legislation allows it or not.

the only thing you can do is to visit a servicepoint so they turn off ciphering permanently... there is no other way... |

Cyphering is a GSM standard for ALL digital networks providing the switches used by landline companies that lease them also have the same facility. The 'Cyphering' modules in switches run alongside the 'Buffering' modules, to ensure the encryption is not in anyway compremised and that the quality of the call is at it's maximum when connected.
