how can i find my fone?

synchro · 05-07-2005 11:11pm #1

i know this might be a waste of a thread but for my own sake i think its worth a shot
i lost my phone at the weekend
the fone is off
and im not very sure where it is
i have checked the balance and it is not going down, so i dont think anyone has it...yet
is there anyway i can remotely turn the fone on or do anything to get the fone back or even recover the sim somehow :rolleyes:

Try.....looking for it? You could ring your service provider and they might be able to block your sim or something. I'm only guessing here.

Short answer.... no!

You can get your sim replaced.

If the phone is off the balance couldn't go down because nobody's using it unless you have no pin code on the sim card.

There's no way to remotely turn it on... unless it's some kinda cool James Bond phone. And you can replace your sim easily. Contact your network.. numbers and messages, however, are all gone.

Retrace your steps and shout out its name.

Then do what they said.

If you were rich you could hire your service providers airwaves and search for your phones signal, like they do for missing persons...but hey just look for it or buy a new one!

report it missing and yourself as rich and do as above...what a bummer to lose all your numbers though...

personally I would use the force.

Triangulate the co ordinates of where it was when it was last on using sophisticated technology. Other than that just go look for it or get a new one.

Were you drunk when this happened? If so this greatly reduces the probability of finding your phone.

say a prayer to St. Anthony ... not generally a believer of this, but he has come through for me Bigtime when I thought stuff was well and truly gone ... !

Get a torch, and a piece of paper with the shape of a bat cut in the center, shine the torch through the bat shape and direct it at the moon. In gotham city this summons a guy called batman, might work here tho, i hear hes very good.

He does charge a rather large call out fee though.

joejoem · 06-07-2005 12:14pm

Did you use the bat signal or the force?

was about to post that he's no longer a saint , but i was thinking of St. Christopher , he was un sainted ( don't know why) Chris was the saint of Traveling.....

I bought myself a ickle gadget for backing up my sim card , so that if i ever do loose my phone i can just whack on the restore to my new card... plus if i get a new phone i can just do the same with that
