Thanks CJ. But I've read the meanings in dictionary. I hoped someone could give me some examples on uses of "phony" in its variety meanings.

Get a different dictionary. Obviously, the ones you have been reading are inadequate.
CJ's link to Webster's definition of "phony" supplies four different examples of how the word is used.
Dictionary.com offers eight sentences!
The Oxford Dictionary and The American Heritage Dictionary also offer examples.
