Many of us may are used to our android phones. Our android phone also contains all our data and for some of us, this data may be very important. Hence we wish to keep this data confidential. Data may be personal or of business purpose or for any other purpose. There are many occasions where we may turn our android phone on silent or vibration mode. Well if we loose our mobile phone on any of these modes, mainly silent, then it is a matter of concern. Well you can find your lost or misplaced android phone if you follow the steps mentioned below:-
- Open Android Device Manager on your PC You can open Android Device Manager by searching on google or simply click here.
- In Android Device Manager, login with the same gmail user id with which you had registered on your android's play store.
- On your PC's screen, you will be able to see your device's name and last login date. And if by God's grace, you had GPS turned on you will be able to see current location of your device. Also you will be able to see three options, namely ring, erase and lock. All the three functions will operate separately.
- Ring. When you click on ring, your android phone will ring on its highest volume, no matter whether it was on silent or vibration mode.
- Erase. If you have some important data stored in your device and you want it to be confidential then erase is the only option left before your device comes in wrong hands. If you click on erase it will factory reset your device thereby wiping off all your data including apps, photos and contacts. Also note, when you erase your device's data, Android Device Manager will no longer work.
- Lock. Well this function is self explanatory. When you click on lock, you will be asked to input message and phone number's field so that whoever finds your phone can read the message and contact you. You will be asked to input a password and you shall not forget that password until you get that phone.
