Lost it on 31st Dec. I know Android Device Manager can help if he ever Turns ON the phone and insert sim card. But is it possible to still locate it even after he change IMEI or use it in a different country? Can Google still Identify it as my device?

I downloaded and installed the AT&T official build from this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=317952
It says it has 4 GB SDHC support, but my phone still says there is no storage card installed.
Anyone have any tips please?
Have you tried a soft reset?
Yes, I have. Still says it's not installed.
Well, in the specs it does say that it has "4gb SDHC support."
If you can find it in File Explorer, check to see that it's not the card by putting it in a card reader and having the computer detect it.
hey

With my account i dont use same sim and its work
Then probably it can be work with sim blocked or unused
I dont have other sim or sim blocked but you can try
Just put sim and conect with your account on apps
Then unplug sim and samapps work
If I am not wrong @adfree did that somthing like 3 month ago...
Sent from my MAGPAD9.7 SuperPlus using xda app-developers app
Can't remember. But I think I have no solution yet without SIM.
Btw.
I can't see solution in Video.
How ?
Best Regards
I think he used which I used many time ago trick.First time download something from samsungapps and when finished switch off your phone and extract your SIM and open your phone you will able to use Samsung apps without SIM
Maybe I am wrong
You mean only first time SIM is needed to write few Config data...
Then SIM is not more mandatory?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Now just extract firmware again and compare it with virgin firmware use Winmerge (can compare folder)
I think its because im connected first time with sim with my acount then unpluged sim and can use samapps
Maybe difference its account information and not easy to push it all ready on new firmware because account differ
Also you can try exec simapps with simcard and not connected with your account and try again connect samapps without sim if works then we find how make firmware who can connect withtou simcard
Or maybe its just some file changed like info in Kona bin(exxemple) when i use sim and connect with account then just need copy past it on new firmware...
KonaTermsInfo.ini
Code:
#Terms
Version=1.1.5
#Country
mcc=262
mnc=1
csc=DBT
Maybe this is the "magic"...
I am too lazy now to remove my SIM...
My Fingers tooo big.
Best Regards

Hi, I recently bought a used Sprint Tab 3. It's a data sim card version but I only plan to use it for wifi. Previous owner did a factory reset. Everything works fine, I rooted it to get rid of bloatware, no sim notifications, sprint crap etc. However, when I go to settings -> about device -> status, it shows a user name, eg. "[email protected]" plus a phone number, MIN, PRL, etc. Tablet shows as connected to 3G network even though there's no sim card. If I enable airplane mode and reboot, all the fields show up as unknown and mobile network as disconnected, however the username remains.
I believe that info is from the previous owner, but where is it stored? I'm guessing the tab is getting it from the network even though there is no sim card in it to authenticate it which doesn't make sense. Removing all Sprint related stuff does nothing. I tried wiping the whole tablet and flashing a beta CarbonRom that was in the forums and the info still shows up in the about device status. I flashed back to stock rooted. Only difference is that android 4.2.2 has the username option while kit kat doesn't. Since I had made a complete backup of the tablet, I wiped the efs partition just for the heck of it and rebooted. Interestingly enough it removed the Sprint boot animations and replaced them with stock Samsung ones. Folder was recreated by android. Everything else is still the same. I was expecting the tab not to connect to anything anymore but I guess not. For all the doom and gloom that is said about wiping the efs partition, I was a bit surprised that it didn't absolutely nothing. There wasn't even a nv_data.bin file in it (although my S3 is also missing this file for some reason too.)
Any suggestions? I was thinking about trying to contact the person that sold it me, maybe he hasn't taken the tab off his account yet or something. If anything I can just keep airplane mode on with wifi enabled, still wondering how the tab is getting that info. I'd rather not have anything of the previous owner on it.
