Find My Phone app allows you to locate family members or your lost device from any device (Android, Apple, Laptops etc) through WhatsApp
With the app you can create a message trigger that will send back the last location of your lost device back to you through WhatsApp and show you the location on the map (google maps).
First you create a message trigger from the main screen and whenever your lost device will receive that message through WhatsApp it will reply with a url that shows you the location of your lost device in google maps.
It's so simple that you will be amazed!
Available in Google Play for free: Google Play Link

hello.
I have a diamond and i'm wondering if there is a software that i can install in my phone that send constantly the location of the phone to a server
what i want to see is the location of the phone in google maps or something like that... like 007 style
or that some one in a computer can see my location in a map
sorry for my english
So you mean something like Google Latitude?
http://www.google.com/latitude/intro.html
It's an application you can install on your phone and it uses the GPRS/3G data link to send your location to selected friends. You can choose whether to send to individuals by exact location, general city location or not to send your location at all.
Google Maps for Windows Mobile already shows your exact location if you have a GPRS/3G data link and a GPS enabled phone. It's very James Bond... maybe not as fancy looking, but definitely impressive for showing off.
was promising but
it says
The Latitude iGoogle gadget is not currently available for your location
You can still download Google Maps with Latitude to your phone
so i only can use it in the phone but not the pc
Right, this is how you do it.
Download Google Maps for Windows Mobile from here...
http://www.google.com/gmm/GoogleMaps.CAB
Install that onto your Diamond.
Start > Programs > Google Maps
Click Menu then Latitude.
You need a Google login to make it work.
Click on Add Friends to add someone (using their Google login name).
You can now specify whether to share your location with them at an exact or city level.
Your friend can log into iGoogle with their login on their home PC and see your location on a mini map on screen.
Worried what will happen to your mails after you die Google has a solution :laugh:
Google has found a way by launching inactive account manager page that can be used as a "Digital Will". Google is asking people what they want to happen to their digital photos, documents and other virtual belongings after they die or become incapacitated.
An "Inactive Account Manager" can be used to pass information on all websites of google like Google Drive, Gmail, YouTube, or social network Google+ to a particular person after a long inactivity (or after death ). You can even set it to delete all data.
In account settings page, Google gives people the option of sharing their data with a trusted friend or family member, or having their account deleted. It even lets people specify how long to wait before taking action and sends a notification before the
"timeout" periods are ended. (but if you see that mail then i think they will not delete the account and then you have to wait for another long time for it to be deleted )
Finally, Google gives users the option to effectively "burn" their account, wiping all materials from all Google properties - including public Youtube videos, Google+ profiles and Google Voice extensions.
Users can choose 3, 6, 9, or 12 months as the timeout period and Google will send a notification to the secondary email address one month before the period is set to expire.
If that time passes, any trusted contacts will receive a personal email explaining that said individual had left them the data, including instructions on how to download it.
It is a good way to dispose off your email with too many spam's but the minimum time limit is 3 months so happy waiting.

Hello everyone, new here at XDA forums and just trying to get some feedback from the community on a project I have been working on. This application is not done, but I do think that *most* of the main features are in place and its a good time to get some feedback on the UI and maybe more importantly the overall idea behind the application. Basically this app will connect anyone who is connected to the same wifi network. I think this will be cool in large places that share one wifi network, like a college campus, large office buildings, etc.. When you are connected, the app calls it a "zone", so, when you are in a zone with other users, you can live chat with any other user in the zone, and there is also a public board where any user can make posts (images & text). When you make a post, you are able to see how many views that your post has gotten, and exactly who has viewed the post, which is something people may like, I want you guys to be the judge of this though. Please, play around with it, send me a chat message in the app if you'd like, my name is "Dylan Rose", you will be able to just click my name and send a message.
Something you may be wondering is, if this app only lets users interact when they are connected to the same wifi network, how are we going to interact right now? Good question. I have the app set up in debug mode right now so the system thinks that any user who signs in is in one zone called "Test - Zone", so if you see that in your toolbar after you sign in, you're in the right place! :good:
Overall, let me know in your experience, will people want to use this app? I see it being used in larger areas like college campuses where lots of people are connected to the same network, but I want you guys to be the judge of that, so let me know!
Link to the APK: wikisend.com/download/519920/app-debug.apk
Cant thank you guys enough for trying this out and leaving me with some feedback!
This application does use a Google API to allow you to sign in with any google account. All I actually use is
Display Name
Profile Photo
User ID
GCM-ID (To send push notifications, when you get a chat message)
This application also uses the persmissions
INTERNET
CHANGE_WIFI_STATE
GET_ACCOUNTS
USE_CREDENTIALS (credentials actually used described above)
ACCESS_WIFI_STATE
ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE
WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE (Used to store photos when you take a photo in-app)
READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE (used to grab a photo that you would like to include in a post)
CAMERA (Used to take a photo in-app that you would like to include in your post)
RECEIVE (Receive GCM push notifications)
C2D_MESSAGE (Receive GCM Push notifications)
Tried to post some screenshots but since I'm a newer user here at this forum I was not allowed to post outside links!
I might try it
This sounds like something that would be fun for a business or school environment. My question: what do the following permissions do:
find accounts on the device
use accounts on the device
I'm concerned of course that this app which isn't vetted yet by anyone, might be doing something I don't want it to do.

Hey! Thanks for taking the time to check out my description. As for the accounts permissions that this application uses: The app lets users sign in via google account. In order to use googles sign-in API, I did need to use these permission in my manifest. The find accounts is used when you first click the login button, a dialog of the google accounts that you have linked to your device show up, and you choose which one you would like to sign in to the app with. The use accounts is for allowing my application to know some general data about the account that you sign in with, these include your Display name, Account photo, and your user id.
Please let me know if you have any further concerns, and I look forward to hearing what you think of the app!
Thanks again,
-Dylan R.
