[Q] Tracking stolen HTC Mobile - HTC Wildfire S

Hi,
I have a HTC Wildfire S mobile. I'm using it in India. I lost it when I went to a vacation to other state in India on Jun 8, 2013. I had Tata Docomo carrier last used in my cell phone. Today I found in Google Play account a mobile with HTC Wildfire S and IDEA carrier. The activity shows that last used on Jun 17, 2013. Also, the apps that I installed in my mobile don't show up in the google account. Can any one suggest me is there a way I can track my mobile ? I have to check if I have the IMEI number on the box. I have to search for the box. I'm unsure if police will help in tracking the mobile as I lost it in Goa and I belong to Andhra Pradesh.
Any inputs are highly appreciated.
Thanks
Santosh

Push androidlost app ftom playstore to your phone, and try to locate where it is.I don't think the police will help you, they probably don't care.
Your best bet is androidlost app.Google it, and you'll find how to use it.
Although, you will not be able to use its full potential, since it won't have root privilegies.

mostly you should call the police i don't think any other thing will work.
and they may help you will tracking it with IMEI no.

If you can still install apps on that from the internet install anti theft apps but ur best shot to get it back is a police complaint

can someone post 3uk twitter apk for htc desire please

i have upgraded my contract and got htc desire. i do not get 500mb internet allownce till next billing month and can therefore not pull twitter app from marketplace, can someone please post it. i have skype and msn from planet 3 sitetho
need 3uk twitter apk for htc desire
if anyone ask it's a generic graphite 3uk handset only with 3 settings no branded apps etc
but it came unlocked happy days!!!!!!!!!!!!
Stupid question, but why do you want the twitter app if you've got no net access? Surely it's a bit useless, then?
Secondly, why not just connect the phone to a Wifi network and download whatever you want through that?
twitter
twitter app is free on 3uk like skype and msn, there free because they give 3g assess to them, or anyone without internet bolt on. unfortunately the twitter app is threw marketplace and not 3uk usual wap planet 3 site for customers
So why can't you get it over Wifi?

Sure, not everyone has a wireless access point in their home, sure, but no access to a Wifi network at ALL? Coffee shop? Library? School? Hell, even McDonald's does free Wifi these days. I'm just saying it might be easier than holding out here for someone to post the apk.

Out of interest where on the site did you get the 3uk skype as it says htc is compatible but the link I get sent to my mobile ends with page cannot be found.
Yes I'm on 3uk
I upgraded and the same thing happened. A bit of gentle persuasion and a customer services call later and I was given free data for the interim month. Maybe 3 is the same?

Sell a Desire HD with Premium Navigation?

Hello,
I have a Desire HD and a Perpetual/lifetime Premium Navigation license from HTC. I understand that the licence is linked to the IMEI number and therefore HTC will not allow a license transfer to a new phone.
I am now looking to sell my Desire HD though. If I cannot transfer the license to a new phone, does anyone know if I can sell the phone and let the new owner havePremium navigation license?
Thanks,
Craig.
Does anyone know about this one? If the license is linked to the phone's IMEI rather than an account, I guess the new owner of the phone would automatically aquire the ability to use Premium navigation.
Try it for yourself, try another simcard +sd card, then you know it

Thanks, but I don't have another SIM card and I doubt anyone is going to let me take the SD card from their phone to let me download stuff onto it. I was hoping that someone might have experience from selling their own phone after buying a premium Nav license.
How did you buy it? is it not linked to your google account like most apps?

No, I bought it (as far as I can remember) directly through the HTC locations app.
It is synchronized with phone's serial number. It goes with your phone.

An update for for everyone's info: Today HTC informed me that the previous advice given to me over the telephone was wrong. If the license was purchased through the HTC Locations app (as opposed to the Route66 website), they will transfer it to a new phone without problems. They confirmed this by transfering my licence to my HTC Sensation.

Just one final update as I missed a couple of PM's asking me for more info...
In order to transfer your license Premium Navigation license from one phone to another you need:
1) to be sure that you bought the licence via the HTC locations app (not on the route66 website)
2) Contact HTC via the email support link on their website (I used the UK site). After the mail is sent through their online form, you'll receive a confirmation mail with a helpdesk ticket number and link (only needed for if HTC ask for more info)
3) In your message, Include the Phone model, IMEI and telephone number of BOTH your old and new phones (not just the details of the new one). Keep the mail as short and clear as possible and you should get a quick answer during weekdays.
Good luck,
Craig.

[Q] Anyone care to help a Noob with his Wildfire?

Firstly, Hi, Just got this forum recomended by a friend and it looks great, glad I joined.
secondly, all answer's need to be in plain English cos I am completely new to any for of electronic engineering etc etc.
So, On to my Q.
I brought a Wildfire back in June for £100 as it had been superceded by a new model, it was sold through O2 and was locked. I had it unlocked by a friendly shop for £20.
I returned to Egypt (I teach Scuba in Sharm el Sheikh) and started using the phone, really good, I like it.
Then my network starts selling internet packages (basically for less than £3 a month I can access the net whenever I like as long as I dont kick the arse out of it).
So I registered and paid my cash.........
When I click on the Connect to the Internet button it goes to "Turning On" but does nothing else.
I have asked my mobile network and they say it is a software problem caused by the illegal unlocking.....
HELP!!!
Regards
Stevie H
Hi and welcome. I will try and help the best I can but my knowledge is limited and others may help better if I can't.
I very much doubt this is a software issue but more of an vpn or data settings issue. Now my friend once had pay as you go and couldn't connect to internet due to his vpn or data connection values/settings not being set for his network. It was a long time ago so can't remember exactly what we did but it involved googling his network providers vpn settings and manually putting values into his phone settings. I hope and think this issue is easily solvable for you.

Thanks for the reply, but the settings are all as they should be, I had the guy at Mobinil check em for me and also googled them to check myself and all is good on that front.
I emailed HTC about my problem, complete with model and serial numbers etc - it was them that said the "illegal" unlocking had caused the problem

What exactly do you mean by "click on the Connect to the Internet button"?
It may be that my language on my phone is set to Swedish and it's different from your's, but I don't understand what you mean by that. Are you talking about the checkbox for Settings - Wireless & network - Mobile network?
My experience is that you have a problem with the settings for Mobile networks (roaming, networks, APNs) just like slymobi and Ankurcul already told you. But if you've made sure they are correct it seems strange...
It is really strange bt I don't think so its illegal unlocking problem...
