How can i track someone who steal my phone by doing something previous work before stealing .Can i able to activate some programming on it which can be unbreakable even the thief reset phone .
Thanks .
I suppose that a good theft will manage to break or remove all kinds of security apps,etc. Although you can try using this one: Clean Master. To my mind if your smartphone has got a security app built-in, like Sony Xperia does, you can turn it on so that you can track your phone in case it is stolen.

My country (Kazakhstan) supported by firebase phone authentication and I recieve OTP codes correct to mobile phones starts with +7701, +7705, +7707. But I can't recieve OTPs for phone numbers starting with +7708 which is also popular in Kazakhstan. Is there some limitations for certain mobile operators or something?
Accordingly to Firebase yes, it should be supported:

But I had the same problem once in Mexico, I found the root cause and the issue was the Telecom provider, it was detecting those specific SMS as "not trust source", so I never was able to do it with that specific provider. I think that the issue is solved now, but you may try to also consider that option.
My boss has charged me with the task of finding how to integrate WeChat into our photobooth's "Total Share" section.
Our photobooths work under windows and their software is a mix of Java and a PHP web API installed locally, that then connects to a web service.
The intention is to give the user the option to, when their picture is done, get a copy of it via WeChat (I guess that by introducing it's phone number)
Through my searches I've found a WeChat JS-SDK, but that seems to connect sites you are watching on your phone with your actual WeChat app so it doesn't work in my case.
The other source I have found is the Official Account Admin Platform, but I'm not really sure if this would allow me to do what I need. As far as I've seen, the Official Account can send messages in response to a trigger (that would work for me, send a message when the user clicks on the button), but it also seems to need that they "subscribe" (in a way) to the Official Account, and secondly I'm not sure how can this be automatized.
Especial mention:
I'm a junior developer, so API integration is a bridge I haven't crossed yet, and as such I'm utterly lost.
Is it possible to get the functionality I require? If so, what are the steps to do it?
You don't need to make a fully fleshed tutorial to write an answer, just knowing in what direction should I go, and maybe some possible caveats that more experienced developers may be able to foresee, would be great.
Thanks.
I'd like to register all of our staff to have gravatars. They are an unreliable bunch, so if I ask them to sign up for one it would take about 6 months to get to 50% completion.
I could use selenium to drive the website to sign everyone up, then simultaneously reconfigure the spam filter to collect all the confirmation emails, then go back over all of those emails and confirm the accounts. But that feels like a very dirty hack.
This question mentions a similar need, but there isn't an answer.
Does anyone know if there is a better way to sign up for a lot of gravatar accounts in one go?
Gravatar protects itself from spamming their registrations system by using email confirms.
Besides, you're breaking their TOS by trying to automate signups.
Best thing to do is take the management approach - this is more of a management issue than programming - and tell your staff they are required to get a Gravatar, or 1) they don't get their daily Gummy Bears, or 2) they're fired.
I am using a variety of mobile device clients such as Blackberry, Android, Windows Phone iPhone. At the moment I am focusing on Windows Mobile 6.5 (I know it is dated but I actually have one of these phones to test with).
I want to be able to register the app installed on the device with my web server. Now, I could just let the User create a Username+password combination but I thought It would be cool that the registration/activation process would involve telephone number or/and IMEI being automatically (in code) sent to my server. The benefits of this are obvious, seamless registration and as an added security measure in case the phone was lost/stolen.
Now,I know all about SMS gateways and I guess I would probably have to pay for this service to do what I want - or just let the User enter their telephone number in the login page. I also know that you can send emails to some telephone providers (not all).
Does any one have any knowledge of any free SMS gateways for small business use or pay-as-you-go service or/and clever way to register a telephone number with a web site either via GPRS or SMS?
Additionally, any knowledge of where to look to get the IMEI/UUI of the phone in code? It has to cover different devices so a generic way is a must (which rules out OpenCF).
I appreciate it is highly unlikely that are solutions to this without using a SMS gateway provider but there are some clever people on this site so open to ideas.
Thanks
The IMEI (and phone) number is locked down in the Windows Phone 8 API (for security reasons) so, if you want to make your solution future proof - you are going to have to force the user to find it on their handset and type it in manually. Other platforms (or previous versions of Windows Phone) may not be so strict on this.
Does anyone know of an AIR Native Extension (ANE) that allows you to access the device's notification sound(s)? OR, a method to query if the device is in "silent" or "vibrate" mode?
I've set up Push Notifications, but no sound plays on my (Android) device.
I know I can play my own sounds, but I want to use the native notification sound (the same as an SMS or email alert sound) and I don't want the sound to play if it shouldn't (viz. silent mode / vibrate mode).
I've been looking for hours and there's a "Vibrate ANE," and others looking for the same type of capability, but I haven't found anything usable for native sound notifications.
I believe that iOS automatically will play a notification sound when it receives a push notification (I think), but Android just flashes the "shade title" & shows the app's icon for the notification.
Maybe someone else has stumbled across a solution??? =)
Many Thanks!
Todd =D
I think you might have to be careful attempt to access the built in sounds on iOS.
We definitely could write an extension that played any of the system sounds. However I believe these sounds are copyrighted, and my understanding of the Apple ToS is that your application may get rejected from the AppStore if you use them directly.
This is why things like a notifications extension only use a "default notification" value to access system sounds that are set by the user. These sounds are played on certain system events.
The sounds are all accessed via undocumented IDs: http://iphonedevwiki.net/index.php/AudioServices
So yeah we’ve been very cautious of writing anything that could put developers in trouble with the AppStore. You have enough problems getting apps through as is. But if you read otherwise let me know.
