How to Individually Locate Your Lost Cell Phone


This has to be one of the things many mobile users long for. I believe that in this world more than 1000 phones get lost everyday, the figure being on the lower side. The main ways in which mobile phones are lost are theft or carelessness. You can get way-laid by muggers and you end up losing your phone or when you go to a social event or place, you carelessly leave your expensive phone on the table and when you come back, it is gone.
Well those days are about to end. This is because of the new cell phone tracking software. This software has been programmed to work together with GSM technology so that your cell phone can be recovered. Here is how it works:

You first have to install the software on your phone. If your phone is WAP enabled, you can download it directly. You can alternately download it from a computer and transfer the software on your phone. One of the registration details you have to give in is the number of a trusted person or one you meet regularly. What usually happens when you are installing the software is that it merges your sim card number together with your mobile phone's IMEI (International Mobile Equipment Identity) number, better known as the serial number. This means that if a new sim card is inserted into the cell phone, the software will be able to identify that the new sim card does not belong to that phone.

A good practical example is when you lose your phone or have it stolen. When someone replaces your sim, the software will immediately detect that and will use GSM systems to send a text message to the number you had provided. The text message contains the details of the new sim card which is in your cell phone, and that includes the cell phone number. You can then call up the person who has your phone and tell them that they have your cell phone and you will track them wherever they go. You can even tell them the make and model. Now if someone hears something like this, who wouldn't return the phone?

So, if you want to locate your lost or missing phone, get this software as soon as yesterday!!
