It is my understanding that cell phones by law must stay connected with a tower even if not activated, because they must still allow you to call 911.

Some cell phones emit radiation even when not in use (but still turned on).
Don't know if yours has that feature.
I would not use it as an alarm clock if I were you.
Get a cheap alarm clock from the drugstore, that would be better.

    I use a cell phone that is no longer in service.  I use it for a
    alarm clock, is this safe?  Does it still give off frequency that
    is harmful?
    Thanks Debbie
