| 1398742 | 2015-04-19 05:47:00 | Whn my phone rang, a message and web page had details about using Device manager, which I did not know it existed. Or forgot about. | kahawai chaser (3545) | ||
| 1398743 | 2015-04-21 21:31:00 | I have a Sony Xperia Z2 I used Sony's "locate my phone". It's off by about 400 meters The sound alert worked. Google maps is showing my correct position Maybe it's getting fooled by the local WiFi spots. |

| 1398744 | 2015-04-21 23:23:00 | On second thought, the "off by 400 meters" probably means my phone is only using the cell phone tower for location, not GPS or WiFi hotspots. I was inside an office building. |

| 1398746 | 2015-04-22 02:45:00 | You can disable the service on the phone that lets you find it so this only works if it's on. It can't find my nexus 7 because I disabled all non-essential services to improve performance but it is very accurate finding my phone. | dugimodo (138) | ||
