Galaxy S 2 AT&T

[dago]

Ok so here something you guys can make fun of my country ass for. I bought one of these from this kid off the street the other day for 60 bucks kind of a take it or leave it deal. Had it a couple days still had service on it some drug dealer from the hood from what I gather from the txts and shit in the phone. My friend has at&t and said I could just get a new sim card for it and have service on it so whatever I bought it its been laying on my bedroom dresser for the last couple days. Got home from work yesterday watching tv chatting online and coulda swore I heard someone talking? I look around not thinking about the phone and just shrug it off whatever. Last night i'm sleep and clearly heard someone say something out loud. I jump up grab my pistol look at my dog thinking if someone is in this house ima shoot you both. Creep through the house looking around and I hear it again coming from my bedroom then it hit me lol. I grabbed the phone it had some msgs and shit on it I thought it was turned off. Fucking spooked the shit outta me lol brilliant :retard:

Lol my friend has the S 1 galaxy says she can turn it on and off from her computer make it ring uncontrollably gps all this shit. My thing is if you can just take the sim card out and toss it what fucking good is all that other shit?

there are apps where you can "brick" the phone until you get it back and put in your own password. the other app (the one that makes it ring and turns on the GPS) is called "Find my Droid". you should be careful and should have turned it off and reset the phone to factory. if the app is still in there (even if it just has wifi connectivity and not a SIM installed) you can locate the phone and ultimately the person who stole/bought it.

What does brick the phone mean?

What does brick the phone mean?

locking it to even where a system reboot wouldn't really help.

locking it to even where a system reboot wouldn't really help.

So say if I just toss the sim card in then garbage then what? No sim card no service right? How they gonna track it then? Doesn't make sense but I'mn not up to date on at&t phones so...

[mofo]

you log into the phone itself using your google information. you can use that to activate the application on the phone and then it will lock it or even turn on the GPS. sim card or not, wifi connectivity is all that's needed.

You should take that phone to someone who knows how and have it 'rooted'...get rid of all the bloatware and strip down any apps that may be on there that give the previous owner any degree of access or control.

You don't even have to root it. Just flash the sbf. That restores it to out of the box condition without risk if bricking or bootlooping.

what the fuck are you dipshits saying? toss the fucken phone in the garbage and go buy a new one from the store for fucks sake. bunch of fucken bums.
