Find Location Of Mobile
Solution 1:
Mhhhmm... Hopefully I will tell you can do that always provided the following,
- You own the Phone
- You have installed an mobile application (Paid the better) already
- You are not prohibited by law for this
As far as Coding,
Here is a sample code.
Main Activity:
package com.schogini.SimpleTracker;
import java.io.File;
import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.util.List;
import java.util.Locale;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.app.PendingIntent;
import android.content.BroadcastReceiver;
import android.content.Context;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.content.IntentFilter;
import android.content.pm.PackageManager;
import android.database.Cursor;
import android.database.sqlite.SQLiteDatabase;
import android.location.Location;
import android.location.LocationListener;
import android.location.LocationManager;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.telephony.gsm.SmsManager;
import android.telephony.TelephonyManager;
import android.util.Log;
import android.widget.Toast;
publicclassLaunchActivityextendsActivity {
Context ctx;
String imei="1234567890";
String[] lv_arr,lstr;
int smscount=1;
double xpin=0.0,ypin=0.0;
SQLiteDatabase dbb;
Cursor cur;
TelephonyManager tmgr;
/** Called when the activity is first created. */@OverridepublicvoidonCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
tmgr = (TelephonyManager) getSystemService(Context.TELEPHONY_SERVICE);
//getting GPS dataLocationManagermlocManager= (LocationManager)getSystemService(Context.LOCATION_SERVICE);
LocationListenermlocListener=newMyLocationListener();
mlocManager.requestLocationUpdates( LocationManager.GPS_PROVIDER, 0, 0, mlocListener);
//Exit program when Mission accomplished
LaunchActivity.this.finish();
}
privatevoidsendSMS(String phoneNumber, String message)
{
StringSENT="SMS_SENT";
StringDELIVERED="SMS_DELIVERED";
PendingIntentsentPI= PendingIntent.getBroadcast(this, 0,
newIntent(SENT), 0);
PendingIntentdeliveredPI= PendingIntent.getBroadcast(this, 0,
newIntent(DELIVERED), 0);
//---when the SMS has been sent successfully---
registerReceiver(newBroadcastReceiver(){
@OverridepublicvoidonReceive(Context arg0, Intent arg1) {
switch (getResultCode())
{
case Activity.RESULT_OK:
{
Toast.makeText(getBaseContext(), "SMS sent",
Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
//sent=1;break;
}
case SmsManager.RESULT_ERROR_GENERIC_FAILURE:
{

// sent=0;break;
}

//sent=0;break;
}
case SmsManager.RESULT_ERROR_NULL_PDU:
{
Toast.makeText(getBaseContext(), "Null PDU",
Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
// sent=0;break;
}
case SmsManager.RESULT_ERROR_RADIO_OFF:
{
Toast.makeText(getBaseContext(), "Radio off",
Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
// sent=0;break;
}
}
}
}, newIntentFilter(SENT));
//---when the SMS has been delivered---
registerReceiver(newBroadcastReceiver(){
@OverridepublicvoidonReceive(Context arg0, Intent arg1) {
switch (getResultCode())
{
case Activity.RESULT_OK:
{
Toast.makeText(getBaseContext(), "SMS delivered",
Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
//delivered=1;break;
}
case Activity.RESULT_CANCELED:
{
Toast.makeText(getBaseContext(), "SMS not delivered",
Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
// delivered=0;break;
}
}
}
}, newIntentFilter(DELIVERED));
SmsManagersms= SmsManager.getDefault();
sms.sendTextMessage(phoneNumber, null, message, sentPI, deliveredPI);
}
/* Class My Location Listener for GPS and location*/publicclassMyLocationListenerimplementsLocationListener{
@OverridepublicvoidonLocationChanged(Location loc){
double pinx=0.0, piny=0.0;
pinx=loc.getLatitude();
piny=loc.getLongitude();
Stringloca="My current location is: " +
"Latitude = " +pinx +
"Longitude= " + piny;
Toast.makeText( getApplicationContext(),

Sample Coding For receiving Boot Completed:
package com.schogini.SimpleTracker;
import android.content.BroadcastReceiver;
import android.content.Context;
import android.content.Intent;
publicclassMyIntentReceiverextendsBroadcastReceiver {
// Called when boot completes@OverridepublicvoidonReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
// Set what activity should launch after boot completesIntentstartupBootIntent=newIntent(context, LaunchActivity.class);
startupBootIntent.setFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK);
context.startActivity(startupBootIntent);
}
}

If you lost the phone already, complaint to the Police/cyber department. You cannot manually trace it.
It is recommended to buy a similar app so that there is chance to trace your phone and erase your sensitive data. A small investment in such apps would be handy always.
Solution 2:
No.
Impractical exceptions to the above answer.
You are a telecommunication company, then you can do triangulation between the phone and the nearby cell towers.
You are law enforcement, then ask the telecommunication company (will usually need subpoena).
You find a way to hack the phone remotely (e.g. using booby trapped webpage), and then turn on it's GPS and get it to send back an answer.
