Can the cops trace my lost iphone with imei number?

can the cops trace my iphone true imei number ? i lost him

Currently there's little that can be done, but according to the WSJ today there has been an agreement among US carriers to establish a database of lost phones to help prevent registering stolen phones on another account.  This won't help you today though.

  • How to trace a lost iphone using IMEI number?

    How to trace a lost iphone using IMEI number?

    Not possible.
    If your carrier has a blacklist service for phones reported lost or stolen that were activated with their network, this will prevent the phone from being activated on their network again.

  • HT4061 Can you track iphone with IMEI number

    I would like to know how to track my phone, is it possible with IMEI number?

    Your carrier can do it, but will not do it for you.   AT&T specifically, will now block iPhone IMEI numbers when the phone is lost or stolen, so that it cannot be re-used on their network.

  • Can I safely give out my iphone's IMEI number?

    I'm selling my iPhone 3GS (three years old) online. Someone has asked for the IMEI number for 'assurance that he can activate it'. I'm wondering if there's any real danger in sharing that information? Is it needed for the reasons the potential buyer is stating?
    Thanks all.

    IMEIs can be cloned and applied to devices which are considered lost or stolen and blocked from being used in certain countries. This is obviously a criminal offence.
    The chances are that the potential buyer wants to check if your phone is not blacklisted in a country (if (s)he can somehow check it) - so not necessarily a malicious intent.

  • HT4061 find lost iphone via imei number

    I was stolen an Iphone 5, anyone know how to find it via Imei or serial number ?

    So instead of taking personal care of your things like an adult you signed over the rights to your friend and used their infomation on your phone and they aren't "Friends" enough to sign you out/off the device? My good sir/madame that isn't apple's fault, that is User Error.
    It's stealing because they do not belong to you; they belong to your friend. You got yourself into this mess because you skipped over hte paperwork, work your way back out

  • HT204266 How do I retrieve a lost iphone with the Find My Iphone app?

    How do I retrieve a lost iphone with the Find My Iphone app?
    I got my iphone stolen right out of my bag and I am assuming there is no way of retrieving the phone back unless I have the Find My Iphone app? I am hoping someone could prove me wrong or give me another solution to getting it back. I have a lot of photos, videos and memories in that phone and I would do anything to get it back. Please help!

    "I got my iphone stolen right out of my bag and I am assuming there is no way of retrieving the phone back unless I have the Find My Iphone app?"
    It is not an app.  It is a feature of icloud and iphone.  Did you set it up on the iphone itself BEFORE it was stolen?  If not, then you cannot track it at all.
    Change your passwords and report it to the police.

    If you enabled Find my iPhone then you should use that. If not, I'm afraid you're out of luck for finding it. 
    To manage your devices, go to Your Account in iTunes.

  • Question: why is my computer booting up slow? can the battery have anything to do with it?

    why is my computer booting up slow,can the battery have anything to do with it?

    Hi tecknik!
    I'm so sorry for any trouble with calls and messages! I know how important it is to have a properly working phone. Which iPhone do you have? Please reset the network settings: settings/general/reset/reset network settings. Once that is done, please monitor the device and see if that corrects the issue. What is your zip code?
    I'm anxioud to get to the bottom of this for you!

  • HT201209 can the same gift card be used with a differencet itunes account?

    can the same gift card be used with a differencet itunes account?

    No, a gift card can only be redeemed onto one account - it can then only be used to buy items for that account (it can't be used to gift content to another account).

  • Can the "Delivery Frequency Calendar" be used with Commodities?

    A customer has many Suppliers in China that have different calendars
    for observing Chinese New Year.
    They must account for these schedules to order in time, so they do not miss fulfilling sales orders.
    According to Note 175935.1 , it appears that the ASL needs to be assigned to items.
    However; they are using a global ASL rule for a commodity instead of an item.
    Test Case:
    Create a "Delivery Frequency Calendar" a "Build"
    Add the calendar to the ASL
    Run MRP and see that the planned order has a dock date inside of the days
    specified as "off".
    Can the "Delivery Frequency Calendar" be used with Commodities?
    If so, how does one set this up?
    Thanks in advance.

    The customer explains the following:
    Organization Code = APP (Organization_id = 124)
    Part Number = 0328078 (Inventory_item_id = 102991)
    Item 0328078 exists in Organization APP
    Lead Times Preprocessing Lead Time 1 Org
    Lead Times Cumulative Total Lead Time ~ Org
    Lead Times Variable Lead Time ~ Org
    Lead Times Lead Time Lot Size 1 Master
    Lead Times Fixed Lead Time ~ Org
    Lead Times Cum Manufacturing Lead Time ~ Org
    Lead Times Processing Lead Time 65 Org
    Lead Times Postprocessing Lead Time 3 Org

    https://gtcr.oracle.com/gtcr-dir/gtcr_106036848/6564940.993/MBPlanner_2nd_run.req</font>
    Please review the file 0328078_Setup.doc and the Supply Chain Planning report.
    So, support researched the issue more and came up with:
    Note.466300.1 "Organization Based Commodity Sourcing Rule Not Being Considered During Checkout"
    Note.466220.1 "How Does The Commodity Based Sourcing Work For Internal Requisitions?"
    However; the customer responded with:
    "We release out of the planners workbench, as well as purchase release drop
    ship S.O.s out of OM, and the P.O. is automatically created correctly to
    the correct Supplier/Site based on our S.R., A.S.L., and quotations.
    Doesn't that indicate it is finding and using the S.R., A.S.L., and
    quotations?"
    Subsequently, support located using Autodiagnose "MRP commodity sourcing
    dock date":

    The current functionality in MRP does not consider planning constraint setup in ASL by commodity at this time.
    Can BDE contact development to confirm if this is supposed to work at all?

  • Is there any support form Apple to block the lost iPhones through IMEI

    Hi,
    We spend a lot to go for only iPhone but is there any support form Apple to block the lost iPhones through IMEI. I lost my iPhone4 IMEI No xxxxxxxxxxxxx
    Ofcourse i have no hope to get it back. but still just a try.
    If apple does not have such features yet, they should initiate the same at earliest.
    Thanks,

    Apple does not block/track lost/stolen iPhones, nor does any other phone manufacturer. Blacklisting of phones is done by the carrier, so contact yours to see if they offer such.
