If the player has damaged a vehicle to the point where the engine won't start, the phone can be used to 'jumpstart' it by calling any number or contact — the engine will spontaneously function again, although no damage will be repaired.

[[Luis Fernando Lopez]]'s phone appears to be more high-end than Niko and Johnny's phones and is round, similar to Johnny's, and has a glowing blue keypad and a unique "Club" theme. | In [[The Lost and Damned]] and [[The Ballad of Gay Tony]], phones are practically the same except with cosmetic changes.
