This software protects your phone from thieves and helps you track and recover your phone once stolen or lost. And the best of all, it's free. Features includes : 1. This mobile software automatically checks for SIM Registration. If the thief inserted a different SIM Card from what you have registered, it will automatically send SMS information such as IMSI, IMEI, GPS Location or Cell Tower Information if there's no GPS available on your phone to the Partner Number you've registered. In addition, based on the options chosen, the phone can automatically make the screen blank so it's unusable, delete important files via the Protected Folder etc. all automated. 2.A Theft or Lost Prevention Software with SMS Auto-Responder and GPS Capability created for Windows Mobile Devices.3. When you forget your phone and can''t remember where you put it, you can SMS your phone to get the exact location via GPS information if your phone has GPS Capability or approximate location based on Cell Location.You can SMS your phone for other information such as IMSI, IMEI or even remotely reboot your phone etc.This software is also equipped with Thief Prevention system which will automatically SMS your partner phone number if the SIM has been changed against the registered SIM. You can register multiple phone numbers as partners.4. This software supports registration of Multiple SIM Cards and also registration of Multiple Phone Conctacts as Partners.5. When your phone has been stolen, it will automatically SMS relevant information such as IMEI, SIM Card Number or IMSI, GPS Location if supported and Cell Location to your Registered Partner Phone.6. It is able to also auto-delete Phone Memory Contacts if the phone has been stolen.7. It is password protected and the password is encrypted with AES-Encryption.8. Its un-install proof.

You can specify which folders are protected that will be deleted by SmartProtect either when it's stolen (implicitly) or explicitly via SMS from Partner NumberNOTE : Use this feature with care as this will delete your folders as specifiedYou need atleast .NETCF 2.0 for this app to work (which most Windows Mobile has so not to worry).This software works on square screen as well. Note that Cell Location depends on your device. It should be working but the problem is not all devices interfaces with RIL functionality so it may or may not work. What I can confirm is that Asus P525 does not work on cell location (it always return 0). Samsung I780 works perfectly.Anyway, here are the SMS Commands that you can send to your phone. Note though that the SMS is only accepted when :1. The SMS came from a partner phone. (You need to register the phone as a partner phone first).2. The password is correct. Password is based on the password that you have saved when you configure SmartProtect on your phone. The password is authenticated by the phone once the SMS Command is received.3. When the SMS Command is correct.The SMS commands syntax is :::/[command],[password]example :::/getGPSLocation,mypasswordAvailable Commands are :getIMEI - Retrieves the IMEI NumberlockMyPhone - makes your phone unusableenableLockPhone - Enable the Lock Mechanism of your Phone. When your phone is stolen, your phone will become unusable.resetPhone - Reboots your phone.deleteContacts -Deletes your mobile phone contacts.
