I thought they said xiaomi phones are like iphones. Once stolen it can't be formatted without the authorization of the original user. |

So I was surprised when the op mentioned that his stolen redmi 7 was tracked. That means the thief was able to use the phone Adegbem01: |
Re: How I Track My Redmi 7 Stolen Phone by Adegbem01(m): 7:24am On Dec 01, 2019 |
braimeddy:that what am saying, there is a process of locking the phone if you want to useless it and majorly want to protect information and data on your phone and there is another option of tracking it, since there is no way you can change the imei |

diamond88: Is the IMEI number of the phone not written in the receipt? |
Re: How I Track My Redmi 7 Stolen Phone by lereinter(m): 12:17pm On Dec 01, 2019 |
diamond88: IMEI number is on the receipt |
Re: How I Track My Redmi 7 Stolen Phone by fastseo: 1:13pm On Dec 01, 2019 |
lereinter: Even your sim card already has your imei filed to it. Incase you don't know your imei, a check on your sim with the ISP will show you all imei your sim has ever used My brother since u have the receipt while not go to the nearest police station and work with them to help you retrieve the phone. In cases like this I don't look at cost, because no thief shall enjoy my phone. 1 Like |

falcon01:Am not interested in the money or refund but to have the criminal answer for numerous crimes we have noticed in the street. |
Re: How I Track My Redmi 7 Stolen Phone by fastseo: 1:23pm On Dec 01, 2019 |
diamond88: Report to the police and go with the receipt. During my case so many phones were recovered. If the thieves like let them send the phone to from lagos to Kanu. The strategy the police will use is to get the new sim, details and soft target (people who frequently call that sim on the stolen phone). They will now inform the nearest police station closer to where the phone is to commence work. Everything na money.. But don't allow a thief to enjoy his loot in peace. 5 Likes |

Lexusgs430: Don't be too sure about that, the SARS guy boasted that if they want to track a phone no matter what they have the technology to do that. He said unlike before, that everything we do with our phone can be known and monitored without the user's knowledge. E.g sites u visited, sms, calls etc and even the kind of job you do or related to Beside I won't buy those phones whose security are not solid enough... Tecno, infinix and their likes until they improve. |
Re: How I Track My Redmi 7 Stolen Phone by Lexusgs430: 1:56pm On Dec 01, 2019 |
fastseo: Once the imei is changed, the old imei number completely dies with the phone, likewise the tracking signals. And phone can no longer be traced via imei.... That SARS guy is talking jazz...... 3 Likes |

Lexusgs430: The white man that produces pen still makes provision for eraser. If you buy a stolen phone that has a serious case like kidnapping or murder case, know that investigation stops at you until you provide those who sold the phone to you.... Even at that you will still bail your self with huge money after providing the real suspect. Well I know of someone here currently serving 5 year jail term for robbery case he knows nothing about.. Stay away from second hand phone and have peace of mind |

ojonugba2014:What if it is my REDMI NOTE 7 with Snapdragon processor, Mi clouds locked, Locked bootloader how can you flash it or change the IMEI number with MTK ENGINEERING? Some phone security don pass that level. 3 Likes |
Re: How I Track My Redmi 7 Stolen Phone by jaymichael(m): 9:24pm On Dec 05, 2019 |
braimeddy:You can unlock it with mi account on another device. This leaves the phone open so the thief can use it thereby enabling the phone to be tracked. |
