With the implementation anti-theft you know, in case of loss, the exact location of your phone Android.
How it works?
Theft application is automatically activated when you restart the phone and detect a SIM change.
The program seamlessly send a sms every minute (or configured in the application) to mobile phone indicated. The SMS is not recorded in the outbox.
"I can activate / deactivate the service differently?
Yes, to detect the change of SIM, the phone will automatically send an SMS to the phone number of the new SIM, you just have to send an SMS to that number with the phrase set in the anti-theft application to start or stop service .
How to authorize a SIM?
Simply access the application and click on the button "Allow SIM."
How to authorize all my SIM's?
To enable multiple SIM, you just have to put the application anti-theft in "test mode" and go authorizing one to one phone SIM. Do not forget to turn off the "test mode" to complete this task.
What happens if you accidentally activate the service?
You can access the application anti-theft (using the key provided) and click on the top button (to be put in red).
If I have GPS, can locate my phone?
Yes, because if your phone lacks GPS, find the phone for mobile phone masts, they give an approximation of the location of your phone.
Please any questions or problems, please send an email to the developer. Thanks.

I ran across this program. Basically, if it detects an unauthorized SIM, it will send a text message to a preprogrammed phone number, alerting that the device is using an unauthorized SIM. I'm curious if something like this could be modified to send the GPS location of the device as well. After having my last phone stolen, I'm hoping there's a way to combine the two so as to help in efforts to recover a stolen phone.
Any thoughts?
Ultimate Theft Alert can do this:

While I can see where that program will send an SMS alerting that the device is using an invalid SIM, I don't see where it sends the GPS location of the device in the SMS message.
In other words, there are programs that allow you send your GPS longitude and lattitude via SMS. I'm looking for something that combines that with the capabilities of programs like Bak2U and Ultimate Theft Alert.
it could be don but it's unlikely it would be compatbile with all gps devices
it would have to be started with a shortcut in windows\startup and check the sim with the bounded sim at each start up
it would have to do all checking and sms'ing silent
and if the thief had a prepaied sim card it could be that it could not even send any sms's
most thiefs i guess would not keep it for themselfs anyway they would hardreset it removing the proct program and sell it to somebody else
The programs already out there do the checking of the SIM and sending of the SMS silently, already. It would just be a matter of getting the GPS location and adding that to the SMS. Then again, I don't know anything about modding.
The ability to track a lost or stolen mobile phone with a built in GPS chip would be ideal.

Awesome! Thanks much. I see a lot of stuff in their forums about XDA
Hi there,
i've been searching for hours now but couldn't find anything working.
Usually I make phone calls from my mobile by calling my home number (which is free for me) and then being connected by my voip router, similar to using a calling card. In my Alcatel phone there is an option to use a general prefix where I enter the home number, a pause sign and the pin code. If that option is activated I simply use the phone book on the sim card and the prefix is used automatically. So I can activate or deactivate the calling card option whenever I want to.
Of course I want to have something similar on my MDA but all I could find were apps that either don't install/work on WM2003SE (Sunnysoft Callingcard, CCDialer, EZDial) or do not what I want them to (Mobidial).
Maybe somebody knows a solution?
Thanx in advance,
Harry
PS: I've got the most recent T-Mobile Big_Storage ROM installed.

I have a problem using ATOOMA when I set it doing 'Airplane Off' command. In fact it turns Airplane mode OFF and SIM turns ON but 2G SIM Antenna has no signal with error icon on it and dialer can not call any number. I must manually do Airplane On and Off in phone setting.
May anyone to try it and help me, please?
Hi Guy,
if you search a free app that in simple mode find your phone in case of theft or loss i think you should try this app:
This is my first post and i can't insert link so if you want try the app search Smartphone Monitor GPS Free on Google App Store.
Smartphone Monitor GPS send the GPS position of your mobile phone via GPRS to a web server GPS, or via SMS to another number. You can set the frequence of send.
There is also a useful function ANTITHIEF. If your phone is stolen and the thief change the sim card, you can receive an sms with the new SIM card number inserted and teh position of the device, to another telephone number set.
There also other useful function:
- SOS Alarm. Send an SMS with alarm and position to another telephone number when the button is pressed.
- Stealth mode. Hide the app from the launcher.
- Commands via dial pad
If you download the app you can try also our GPSWeb service free for seven days. You will be able to track your device on google maps in real time.
There is also a payment version with more functions and more days of tracking on GPSWeb.
Bye
I have an old LG G5 that was on T-Mobile and now has no carrier service. Every time I start it and also multiple times per day, I get alerts that there is no Voice service and the SIM is not provisioned. Also, it will turn mobile data back on with every restart. I use this phone simply as a means of being away from my work (from home) desk so I can still access company email and IM. For that I only need wifi, nothing more.
My ideal world would have this phone never turning on mobile data, never warning me that there's no voice (or data) service, and never alerting https://vlc.onl me about the SIM not being provisioned.
I have tried long-pressing these notifications and both bring me to the app "Call services" with one available option: Icon badge. Turning this off has no effect on the notifications.
Any suggestions will be warmly welcomed, even if they don't work.
Note: I was somehow able to kill a similar alert about Data service, but have not had the same success with Voice service even after doing the same things.
i don't understand: did you eject out the sim card?
Use airplane mode. That should solve the problem
