Hi folks, I was theft my Nokia x2 mobile phone while getting into crowded city bus in Bangalore :(( , though i have the back up of my contacts,i lost all my data contained in the memory card.by the help of IMEI number can we somehow track it?! thanks
That's a bummer. I had one stolen from me in Schiphol Airport. A real bugger, it was a good phone too. A PITA getting all the contacts back. I now upload them to my pc on a regular basis.

Yep! Mine gets cradled and backed up each time I charge it. Learnt that lesson with a friend who had a huge filofax. Until he left it in a pub...

And someone picked it up ? What would you do with someone else's filofax ? This is pretty useless ( as opposed to a phone, for instance)
You do realize that you could buy all the inserts separately? Sort of like fitting a new sim card to an expensive phone... :laugh:

Yes, your opperator can track the phone by its IMEI since it will shhow up on their base station register. Howver in a city the size of Bangalore... :)
============================== Nothing to say.

the thief has removed the SIM i was using ...will my operator be still able to track it?!:confused:

Yeah, SIM number is different to the IMEI (international mobile equipment identifier).

get a new phone. you won't get the old one back. If you had your contacts on there - did you synchronize with your PC?
regards Torsten I never finish anyth...

ya,i had the contacts synchronized,but i dont understand why we cant track it!sad that i didnt install the mobile tracker app in that phone :(
The thing with tracking a phone on it's IMEI number is something that can be useful in smaller areas since it relies on triangulating signals and won't be nearly as exact as for instance a GPS-unit. I do understand why the operators don't give a [insert something profane here] about tracking them though, if they needed to do that and coordinate a "rescue mission" each time they wouldn't be doing anything else and the prices would just shoot sky high. I use MS Exchange to sync calendar and contacts and with my Subscription (which includes free traffic over GPRS/3G/HSPA) it syncs every 10 minutes or via Push. :D /Jagg

Wouldn't be more expensive than buying a new filofax ? Mybe my problem is that a filofax is probably much more expensive than I think it is.
Some were expensive, some weren't. The ones you are thinking of are like Timex watches - the one he had was more of a Rolex :laugh:
