Why don't you attach boxes to screens so that each player can deposit his phone while playing?, it might be better to do so on a locker, but let's face reality, people forget to use them and they are impractical, if you put them on the screens, on a transparent box, you will see your screenmate putting it there and remind yourself you should do the same.

The most exciting phrase to hear in science, the one that heralds the new discoveries, is not “Eureka!” (I found it!), but “That’s funny…” – Isaac Asimov
The only reason God did not put "Thou shalt mind thine own business" in the Ten Commandments was that He thought that it was too obvious to need stating. - Kenberg

I have come to realise it is futile to expect or hope a regular club game will be run in accordance with the laws. -- Jillybean

The first thing people do is to turn on the phone to check the results on the internet. If you can't get it turned on, it is not yours.

If you're talking about the various English trials, that won't happen any more. After the EBL changed their rules earlier this year, the same change was made to the CoC for EBU trials. So now you can have your phone with you, but it has to be visible on the table.
By the way, I think "everyone" rather overstates the extent of compliance.

I once deposited a phone which I'd owned for about six months. For all that time I'd managed to preserve the plastic film that protects the screen of a new phone when it's in the box. When I came to retrieve my phone, someone had removed the film. That made a considerable dent in my faith in human nature and intelligence.
