im using APP LOCK available on playstore. It can lock any apps include setting.

What firmware are you using now? 307?

This is shocking ! I tried it out indoors with fluorescent lighting around my room and got the same results uzing my ZL with 253 f/w

Sony better buck up !

okay.. after my findings from yesterday until now.. i find something interesting..

1. Smart Lockscreen protector This can disable people turn off our phone (No root required). *The things i wish to get*

If phone get turned off, then everything is gone.. cant track GPS, cant do anything at all after phone turn off..

2. GotYa!
Just paid on it. It can capture the face of people who trying to unlock ur phone with wrong password.. will send to email, fb with location track enabled... u can remote control by SMS. to play alarm..

i just tried these 2 apps now.. totally people cant turn off the phone and turn off the volume of phone at all..

with these 2 combination, i think temporary fulfill my needs.. people cant turn off my phone, he will get face trapped to my email, he will get caught..

rm8 required only for total.. 1 free apps, 1 paid apps.PLUS xz/xzl is battery non removable.. i recommend to u all for my findings.. to protect our expensive phone..

bro if I'm on 253 rooted I will need to flash the baseband and kernel from 307 after flashing the monx Rom zip right?

Still 253

Thanks for the sharing,really useful apps you recommended there


Edit: I found another app named "Cerberus anti theft", how does it fare against GotYa! ??

for me both are almost same..

my intention at here to install these 2 apps is trying to prevent people after steal our phone, and turned off our phone and reflash the firmware or ROM. so every data in previous is wiped off.

Normally, phone will enter lockscreen after sleep. so people need to enter pin/pattern/password to unlock the lockscreen. but public still can powered off the phone where here is something leaks for thief.. With Smart Lockscreen Protector can prevent people turned off our phone. (thief cant powered off, cant remove battery, cant reflash ROM/firmware for a period).

Once u noticed ur phone is stolen, u can active the ALARM at GotYa!. which cant be turned off /lowering the volume (TESTED). Thief will attempt to unlock ur lockscreen, or power off ur phone (which unable to do so with 1st apps). so thief will got nothing to do for that period.. IF thief didnt attempt to do as above, u can still remote SMS to get ur phone location, remote to capture the face and sent to ur email. which very useful.. all of these can do in silently.

conclusion here, my intention is try to slow down the thief to reflash our phone for a period while ur phone still got battery.. u can track back phone location and get the photo of thief and do police report.

*Requirement*
1. Mobile data & GPS must be actived always (Slow data is ok).

Yup,I understand your intention I this is one of the best advantage of non-removable battery in my opinion. the GotYa! doesn't turn on your GPS automatically when wrong passcode detected? I think the Cerberus has this feature built in.

I tried the first app,definitely working in our XZ. Will get the 2nd app either GotYa! or Cerberus. Will research deeper first. Thanks

Oh really? Yea. First apps is very useful.. I'm turned on my gps and data always one.. But will try to read more about urs Cerberus anti thief apps.. Just spend rm8. Haha.. At least fulfill my needs.. Very fast response for gotya!. I SMS remote almost instant.. Haha.. Just a sharing here.. Hope those who need it can use it too.. Coz I faced phone stolen previously..

Personally I am using Cerberus since Galaxy Note 1 till today Xperia Z.
I like Cerberus as it support online tracking and many other feature too

You will need apps login before you can uninstall it...

hi, with the smart lockscreen protector, if we press the power+vol up button, will the phone still restart?

cos if the phone still restart, and if you have set the SIM pin, your phone will be stuck on this screen and all the data/gps will be temporary off.

Today JB ........... =_=



* snap using Xperia Z - .407 firmware - Superior Auto - unmodified, only add in some wording.
