Angry Want to lock Samsung Galaxy S II


Unfortunately my beloved Samsung Galaxy S II has been stolen in Goa. Is their any way to to lock the phone permanently to make it useless for the robber? I dont know the phone's IMEI code though, didnt find it on the box too.

So what are the options i have? I am planning to buy it again or is their any other phone i should consider? How about HTC Sensation?

Thanks.

Unknown to many, the S2 has inbuilt anti-theft software which allows you to connect & lock it remotely, known as Samsung Dive. This, however requires some initial setup.

Samsung DIVE

If you haven't done the initial setup, other option is to Install Plan B.

OP will have to wait then, probably until the thief powers it back on.

I have blocked the SIM and got the new SIM of the same number.
