Lost your cell phone?

You know that sinking feeling when you realise you’re lost your wallet/phone/keys? Well, we can help you with the lost phone …

If your cell phone has been stolen, there are ways to prevent whoever has your phone from accessing your data and personal information. Some applications can even track the location of your phone.

Which method you use, depends on the phone you use.

1. BlackBerry

BlackBerry Protect is a free application able to assist you with locating your BlackBerry and to ensure that your data is safe.

If you lose your BlackBerry, you can log on to the BlackBerry Protect website and lock your device to make sure the person who has it, can’t use it. If you’re pretty sure you won’t be seeing your phone again, you can remove your data and SD card via the website.

If you are registered on Blackberry’s Enterprise Server, the device can also be wiped on the server side.

If you merely lost your phone, there’s also the option to lock your phone and display a message on the screen for whoever finds your phone. By means of GPS, it’s possible to establish your phone’s location and find it again. Or, if you suspect the device is within hearing distance, just adjust the volume to it’s loudest setting and you’ll be able to find your phone,

Apart from these functions, you can also backup your contacts, calender and bookmarks wirelessly. This can be done automatically and as frequently as you prefer (daily, weekly or monthly)

If you’ve replaced your old BlackBerry with a new one, you also can get your backed up settings, contacts and calender items back with BlackBerry Protect.

2. iPhone

Apple users can user Find My iPhone via the iCloud-fasiliteit.

Sign on at  iCloud.com or use the Find My iPhone app on a different phone to locate your phone on a map, display a message on the screen, lock the phone and display a message or wipe your data.

With iOS 6, iCloud also provides a Lost Mode, which makes it even easier to lock your phone with a four digit password and send a message to the phone with a contact number. If the phone is in Lost mode, it will continuously keep track of where the phone was and you’ll be given a report when you sign on to p iCloud.com or on the Find My iPhone app.

3. Android

If  Google Sync is configured on your phone or the Google Apps Device Policy application on your  Android, your data and personal information can be wiped from another device. Use this function when you phone has been stolen or lost. Just keep in mind the remote wipe function will remove ALL device based data  – e-mail, calendars and contacts and reset your phone to it’s initial default factory settings. It will not, however, remove data stored on the SD card.
