Best Answer

you cant. doing so requires special equipment more advanced than a police scanner. police in some areas use cell phones over their radio for privacy issues. for example if police are busting a party for underage drinking, they use cell phones to communicate so that anyone who has a scanner cant warn everyone to run or not answer the door. police scanners use radio waves, cell phones are on a different frequency. cell phones now also use encryption.
