I lost my samsung galaxy s5 a couple of days ago. Thursday precisely and I have not been able to get over it. Immediately I discovered it was missing, I tried calling it but it wasn't connecting. Though the battery was lOw but it was on battery saving mode which would still take me about 7hours or so. I ve searched everywhere for it. But when I tried calling it on friday morning around 10am but it was switched off. Hard as it seems I just can't seem to let go. I feel so bad and I have cried my eyes out.

Is there any hope of recovery? Though I didn't activate the anti theft app. Can it be tracked? Please I need phone gurus in the house to come to my rescue....

Log in your Gmail account with another phone or laptop... Then check out the last location where your Gmail was activated/used.... Read hear for more http://trendblog.net/how-to-track-your-lost-android-phone-without-tracking-app/

If it were an iPhone with tight security you would be worrying less. The thing with androids is with a mere flash, you will wipe everything stored on the phone even screen security pattern, everything will automatically return to Factory settings. If the founder were a bad guy he'd already flashed it and sold it for 60k, cool amount for Christmas flexing I tell you.
Just be prayerful that God may touch his heart and he may locate you and return your phone to you. It happens.

Dats y is not gud to root android...
After rooting, d security is bridged and is now easy to format.


If u did not root ur android i strongly advice u to enable encryption on ur android fone. Dis will prevent anybody tryin to bridge or root d fone cos once d fone is off n u turn it on tryin to format or root it, u must first decrypt it.

Op stop worrying yourself. worry will only make things worse and it won't help matter. My advice is just move on, God knows best.
Am also using a galaxy S5, and am yet to see any anti theft app on the phone.

go to settings, then locate security, then scroll down to device administrator.. it should automatically be enabled when you Check it. .....

I really can't place my hands on how it happened and that's d hardest part. From the office down to the car and I went to eat. I really can't tell what happened between those periods. I took it from the office but I didn't bring it out from my bag@ the eatery. As funny as this sounds, I still have the feeling that the phone is somewhere.

I'm really trying to move on but its not been easy. You know how we ladies tend to get attached to things that belongs to us...
