I assume the metal detector is there to ensure that passengers/people are not carrying bombs, guns and knives, etc. Therefore, to try to pass through by hiding a mobile phone, could lead to you being taken out of the line and strip searched, if discovered. Usually, mobile phones and metal objects (keys,etc.) are placed in a tray, so the operator can assess whether the objects are harmless and can be let through.

You visibly hold it in your hand so the officials monitoring the metal detector will know you have one and let you through without a problem.

Will lead tape stop a cell phone from going off in metal detector?

No lead tape will not stop a cell phone from going off in a metal detector. Lead tape is used to add weight to a golf club and does not block electromagnetic signals. Cell phones are designed to transmit signals and lead tape will not be able to block those signals. If you want to stop your cell phone from going off in a metal detector there are several things you can do: Turn off the phone before entering a metal detector Put the phone on silent or vibrate mode Put the phone in airplane mode Keep the phone out of reach of the metal detectorThese methods should help to prevent your cell phone from going off in a metal detector. If you are still having trouble you may want to consider using a different phone or device that does not emit signals.

How do you get your mobile phone through a metal detector with out it getting detected?

Ok, so I pretty much go to a school in Virginia for all the misfits, honestly. They don't allow cell phones of any kind & we also have an airport scanner that shows what's inside our bags & binders. But I have found a way to get my phone through the scanner with no suspicion. Take your phone & wrap it about 5 times with plastic wrap. Then, take 2 regular pieces of sandwich bread & place your phone inside the 2 pieces. Wrap the bread, with your phone inside, in tin foil. Put the tin foil wrapped "sandwich"in a brown baggie or a lunch box. Since it won't be going through a metal detector, the tin foil shouldn't be a problem.This strategy mite waste bread... But it works. If you find any other ways to get it through without such a hassle, please let me know! Good luck! I hope it all works out!
