I don't know the answer to your question, but lost device scare is the reason I use this.
You can lock, locate or erase your device with a simple text message.
Plus anti virus, call & text blocking and creeping mode if your into that....

Though I do not live in an area where it is yet in use I was able to install ISIS App from Google Playstore remotely via web browser to my Galaxy S3 (couldn't find it directly from phone). Had already done Jellybean update, lost root (OTA rootkeeper didn't work for me). The attachment shows what I get when I try to open app. Does anyone know where to go from here to get around this problem? If flashing unrooted stock, would it be necessary to uninstall Superuser first, as I suspect its presence may be an issue for the app.
You need to get a new Isis compatible sim and you need to be in one of the test markets (which you are not.)

Get the new SIM card like previous post suggests. If you don't have it, you can't get it to work.

So when i first got my gs3 in august i was able to root with heimdall. Early January i had to have my phone replaced because the speaker was messing up.
Since ive gotten it replaced i have had the most ridiculous time trying to find a way to root it with my mac again. The old process with Heimdall does not work anymore.
And it appears that the only process to work is with Odin. The only issue is i dont have access to a Pc to run odin. Am i correct in assuming that i cannot currently root and push a new recovery with a mac?
Ive tried google, XDA, Rootzwiki, Android central and i cant seem to find much information anywhere...
If i couldnt use the search button properly feel free to flame away but i cant seem to find anyhting.

Sorry,
I swore i had it in QandA If you can imagine, last night i had around 20 tabs open trying to find the answer or trying to use old or alternative methods to get a custom recovery. I think i just clicked the wrong tab..
Thankyou though for moving it for me.
@banccalif it looks like i have no choice but to run a virtual machine of Win7 just to get this thing rooted...
I got a new Virgin Mobile Galaxy S2, planning to flash it to pageplus.
I have tried multiple drivers, including the one installed directly by Kier. The phone is recognized by the computer successfully as an MTP. But I was not able to make flashing softwares (such as remotesquard, abracadabra... which I think they are basically the same software) to see my phone.
The software see a USB Modem, but no valid phone. What could go wrong?
TIA
Someone didn't do his homework.
I'll help with 50% of your research. Look at this thread and read, you may find something. I hope. :beer:

I tried turning superuser off but it didn't seem to work. i tried root keeper and that didn't work. i just want to update to the newest software update my phone keeps saying is available but when i try it, it goes into cwm and says the update is aborted. obviously because my phone is still rooted. i want the update without have to wipe date. any help? thanks. and be kinda specific, i was able to root my phone a few months ago but im not tech savvy on every little thing. thanks!
Your update is failing because you have a custom recovery not because you are rooted.
Please go to settings > about phone > baseband version and post what the last three numbers/letters are...
Depending on what version you are currently on there may be a flashable zip available for download, or it may be easier to just flash a complete ROM.
Please search, this question regarding how to take the update properly (no need to unroot) has been answered many times by both myself and others
Also, questions go in the "Q&A" forum
Yeah, all you have to do is look through either cnexus' or my own posts and you'll find the answer you're looking for. Look for threads in the q&a forum with the title similar to "OTA update?" There's at least three of them on there from the last week alone.

That won't work for what this person wants to do (run the OTA). The best way to do this is by checking out CNexus' sticky thread on what to do with an OTA. His thread is very informative and has good instructions on how to update or, at the very least, turn off the OTA notifications.
Hello,
I flashed my phone from a custom rom back to stock Odexed L900PALC and then used the latest SPH-L900) MC2 modem but now I have no network access.
I then tried to go back to the backup made in TeoWin Rec. Project but no dice; still no network.
What do I need to do to restore mobile network access? I can't even make phone calls.
Thank you for your time.
I just remembered:
When I did perform the factory resets I got a "Internal Error: 1500" when Hands Free Activation was attempted.
Hope that helps...
