With Android device manager, you can even track down the location of ur phone... Just sign in to it on anoda device or pc...then u will see a map showing a location (GPS-based. Nd I've used it to know it works) and u have options to lock and erase the phone, or make the phone ring every 5 mins till u recover it(useful when u forgot were u kept ur phone) |

you can't disable an android device forever. sorry. |

shiftback: you are correct |
Re: HELP!!! My Phone Is Gone by Nobody: 11:29am On Jan 21, 2016 |
honsule:He's in no way correct... I can disable an Android 5.0 and above for eternity... After flashing it which most people think its the only way to use a stolen Android device, on the welcome screen, it'll request for Wi-Fi connection which most people skip by pressing the skip button but in this case, THE SKIP BUTTON WILL BE INACTIVE. Only option is to connect to a Wi-Fi and here comes the most interesting part..... The device will request for the gmail and password of the user, and if u happen to be an unauthorized user, sorry..... No magic will make u bypass that unlock screen. Even if u reflash with another ROM. 3 Likes |

Godvilla:Sir, how do I use simple server with mtn music plus on my itel prime notepad. Note: yet to root the phone. Thanks. |

Godvilla: oga dis is android we are talking about. There is no way u can permanently lock an android device remotely that will render it useless. iPhone with all their security sef with icloud, can still be unlocked. Regardless of the android version, once i install a custom or stock ROM shikena! |

Godvilla:Nna, u really sounded plausible. Can u shed more light on dis to convince d doubting thomas & thomases? Let's acquire some nw knowledge. |
Re: HELP!!! My Phone Is Gone by timbros(m): 2:53pm On Jan 21, 2016 |
This is why you always need to sync your device with your Gmail account AND save contacts in your email. Stop saving contacts in sim1, sim2 or phone storage. Email is the best! Sorry for your loss sha... |

Godvilla: What happens if a Kitkat ROM is installed instead? *whispering:how I go fit configure that Lollipop trick? |
Re: HELP!!! My Phone Is Gone by airsaylongcon: 3:46pm On Jan 21, 2016 |

airsaylongcon: its pointless to icloud-unlock an iPhone 4, from an economic point of view that is. The cost of unlocking an iPhone 4 can get you a UK used iPhone 4s( or even an iPhone 5 if u are extremely lucky) |
Re: HELP!!! My Phone Is Gone by Nobody: 4:33pm On Jan 21, 2016 |
TheArchangel:I'lll add u to my whatsapp group so u can fully utilize it Android device and get the best out of it |
Re: HELP!!! My Phone Is Gone by Nobody: 4:35pm On Jan 21, 2016 |
airsaylongcon:even if u flash a gingerbread rom which is basically impossible, it'lll get stuck on the unlock screen until u input the right password and email Most people don't know the security on Android device has upgraded.

shiftback:Mouth sealed... Am not surprise |
Re: HELP!!! My Phone Is Gone by Nobody: 4:40pm On Jan 21, 2016 |
Adaowerri111:Send me a pm and I'll help u out... Ur IMEI is not even necessary. |
Re: HELP!!! My Phone Is Gone by Adaowerri111: 4:54pm On Jan 21, 2016 |
Just did please Godvilla: |
Re: HELP!!! My Phone Is Gone by airsaylongcon: 5:27pm On Jan 21, 2016 |
shiftback: It's not so much the economic value. It's more of a sentimental value as the phone was used by my mum. Still interested in the unlock. No *free* ways? |
Re: HELP!!! My Phone Is Gone by Nobody: 5:36pm On Jan 21, 2016 |
airsaylongcon: 43k and I'll unlock it within 72 hours |
Re: HELP!!! My Phone Is Gone by Nobody: 5:38pm On Jan 21, 2016 |
Adaowerri111:Am having difficulties receiving mails on NL, Iv sent pm countless times to Seun but he feels too big to reply talk more of fixingithe error. |
Re: HELP!!! My Phone Is Gone by airsaylongcon: 5:38pm On Jan 21, 2016 |
Godvilla: . Man to man, no free way to take do am? |
Re: HELP!!! My Phone Is Gone by Nobody: 5:40pm On Jan 21, 2016 |
airsaylongcon:The only free way is to free the device and get a new one |
