Hi friends, in today's tutorial you'll learn how you can locate and recover your Android smartphone when you lose or it is stolen. For a smartphone usually has a wireless antenna and a GPS module, application developers and security companies have thought to use these to help the customer to find your smartphone if it is stolen or lost. The application I'll talk about today, exactly what does!
Besides this function that I consider most important and useful application allows us to make Lookout backup photos, Contacts and calls. Functions that can be easily accomplished and much better, with other dedicated applications.
Lookout app allows us limited access for 14 days 3 functions such as secure web browsing (Safe Browsing), a notifier for all applications that install and ask us permission to transmit or access personal data (Privacy Advisor ) backup for calls made, received (Call Backup). After expiry of 14 days, you have to buy the application to continue to use these functions 3. Admirable thing that will not find many Android applications which offer a trial (complete user application limited time) most are either free or with money without trial.
So we can locate on the map Lookout smartphone if it has an internet connection and GPS active control application provides us with an account and a web interface that can be accessed from any device using a browser, we can give the command smartphone, wherever we are, to produce a sound loud alarm to locate the device easier (both new to the smartphone and want to send the command to start the alarm, you have to have an active connection Internet)
If we buy premium application we can give the command lost or stolen smartphone to erase all content data, or you can block that data can not be accessed.
That said, I highly recommend this app if only for the option to send the order to give them a loud alarm extremely useful when we find the house gadget. I can only invite you to watch the video tutorial to see exactly how we locate and recover our smartphone when it is lost or stolen.

Very good tutorial but you see that the phone number you wanted to hide it with that blur effect was still seen :))) to me ..........
Mr. Adrian problem remedied, thanks for information.
hello ... can you tell me a version for nokia (5230) Symbian for touchscreen please: D
interesting tutorial, congratulations, but there are other programs you can activate alarm function, or location with an SMS (not everyone has the Internet enabled on unlimited phone).
Congratulations again for the tutorial.
You don't necessarily have to leave your mobile net activated. You leave their wireless activated ... now, everyone has a wireless at home, not to mention free hot spots without authentication through many locations. the one who steals it can go around these hot spots at any time or why not, he can "park" for hours in a mall or mac donalds with free wifi. If that happens, you can get your hands on him right away. Mobile net is not so expensive! With 8 euros per month (it seems a little) you have 500MB of Orange prepaid traffic. If you leave the mobile net (3G) activated and do nothing, it has no traffic to consume for a poor synchronization of Gmail mails once the time it has to bring (if there is new mail on the server) a notification and some text that will never exceed 1 MB but only a few KB
I was robbed of a Samsung Galaxy S Advance and I hadn't activated anything wireless or Gps and I want to know if I took the documents to the police with the IMEI of the phone, the police can find it ... I'm waiting for an answer.
I had seen a similar article on LifeHacker about Prey application. Good job!
The application is ok ... but the thief, when he steals the phone, removes the card and needs a permanent internet connection
Hello Ady
I have a question with this software, how do you locate it? I guess GPS?
As if it means that GPS is reduced battery autonomy?
GPS does not eat much, it is only used when applications require location, otherwise the GPS module is nani.
If the thief wants to sell your client must show that it works.
Its location is in many ways, the GPS is the most accurate, the second way is through the mobile phone network (error of several hundred meters, the third method of localization is through wireless networks (routers).
What you Adriane Android phone?
As I said in the tutorial that you locate and use. Do not forget you run tutorials and head-tail.
5000 times I told you I and tutorial smartphone yesterday and at other tutorials. I have an LG Optimus One P500
You can do a tutorial on HotkeyP?
Lookout is a very successful, but a shame that the battery telefonulului (Lg P500) does not take more than 2 days even if you do not hang out with him, do not know why but it downloads very fast, stick it to the charger and after an hour you battery dies and taps.
If you leave the battery activated GSP goes as you say above.
I think I can count on my fingers the people who leave their GPS enabled!
GPS does not eat much, it is only used when applications require location, otherwise the GPS module is nani.
No smartphone does not take more than two zle unless it is extended battery, that is, if you want performance, slim phone, you must pay.
