No flaming here, but some may have already lost their phones (like me). You can find your IMEI from your Google account settings, just go to Google, click on your profile pic, click on account, go to dashboard, click devices and you'll see your IMEI listed for all your previous devices. You can also see when it was last used, and check your location history for a place...
Also, everyone should activate androids built in phone tracker/locker, I sure wish I had on my HTC One m7
I appreciate your understanding and that info is very helpful for those who have lost their phones....thanx
Ok update fixed layout!
Btw, fade in and fade out animation look lovely
Also tested functionality, imei sending works, but all others please note that when setting phone number dont put blanks anywhere in the number and use the international variant:
+1234567890 instead of
+12 345 67890
If you dont do that app will not work properly

Phone : Nexus 4

Will do...once my mom gives my phone back to me....:cyclops:
I have made major progress regarding the application....
It can now detect the change of sim card and sms the new number and the new sim serial automatically to the backup number....
(the above feature has a few problems though...for example:
Go to Settings>>about phone>> status>>my phone number
If it shows unknown then the feature may not work...
But you can try this....
Go to Dialer>>Settings>>additional settings>>My phone number>>set your phone number
Now go back and check about phone and your phone number should be the same that you set through the dialer
Now change sim card and then check about phone>>my phone number
Here is the problem Phone number of the device is not a dynamic variable so it will still show the old number or unknown on a few phones
BUT
If the new number is being displayed properly then the feature will work
To get the feature working you dont have to do anything....the app takes care of it itself....
Even if it is not able to send the new phone number it should be able to send the new sim serial ( this one is a dynamic variable)
Please try and report ....will update link soon...

32Major Update (06/04/2014)
What the hell is this for? / What is this app?
Sometimes your lovely little device ( usually running a rom like Cyanogenmod or Omni etc.) is envied by the virgins of the dev community.
And sometimes i.e. very seldom this phone, this piece of your daily life that contains all the data as it is privy to your life gets stolen.
And most of the times such cases are complained to the police , who probably do an investigation (for a few minutes by asking you color and company ) and then say that without IMEI number the phone cannot be tracked .
Well even if you lost the IMEI you havent lost hope....
So I made this very simple and minimal app , which might find the spark and reignite the fire.
Its a very easy to use app (cause its my first app and i couldnt do much XD)
Just to clear up all those who are waiting to flame just cause the app was featured on xda portal.... i would like to say that:
A. This is my very first app
B. Thank you for your support and constructive criticism is always appreciated
C. This app cannot survive flashing of a new rom nor data wipe (even if it is set as system app)
D. I live in india and not many thieves know about such flashing and stuff.
E. I will develop this app more in free time and also try to learn from so many other members.
F. I have updated to a mediafire link (new update) should fix layout (not sure)
E. Please do help in anyway you can .
Thank you...
Flaming , Blaming will NOT be tolerated ... you dont like it dont use it....simple.
Instructions:
Should work on ALL DEVICES
Requirements:
Features:
Tested on/ Working device list:

Thank you for using this app and supporting me

Congrats though. :good:
