Alarm
Will ignore silent mode. Turns up the volume, sound a siren and sets the volume back to normal level. It also makes the screen flash so you can see it in a loud or dark environment. Select seconds for alarm:
Custom Alarm
Here you can select an other alarm sound file. A select menu will appear on your device. You can always go back to the default alarm by clicking the second button.
Vibrate
Makes the phone vibrate for a number of seconds.
Location
Click the button and the phone will send the location to the server. A map will popup showing location.
If gps fix is not found in 60 seconds or gps is disabled, network location will be sent. If both GPS and network are disabled the last known location will be sent.
If no location is found after 5 minutes it will try to scan nearby WIFI networks and use that to get a position.
Low Power Location
When the phone runs out of power it will send the position to the server.
Send emails
Status
Gets info about battery level, WIFI settings, hardware and much more.
Sound
Here you can enable or disable sound on your phone.
Bluetooth
Here you can enable or disable bluetooth on your phone. This can be useful if you have a bluetooth headset connected but still wants to sound the alarm.
Flash
Here you can turn the LED flash on and off. This feature cannot be combined with the camera feature. This feature may use a lot of power so remember to turn it off again.
GPS
Here you can enable or disable your GPS. This is not part of the official API so it may not work on all phones. It may work on older phones where I use loophole in the android system to do it. I am really not supposed to mess with these settings and google closes these loopholes with their new releases.
WIFI
Here you can enable or disable your WIFI. This is not part of the official API so it may not work on all phones. It may work on older phones where I use loophole in the android system to do it. I am really not supposed to mess with these settings and google closes these loopholes with their new releases.

Boot message
Pops up a message when the phone has booted. Useful in case a friendly guy finds the phone and start it up in order to find out who owns it. Send an empty string to disable the boot message.

Overlay message
Puts a red overlay message on top of the keyguard or lockscreen. Useful in case a friendly guy finds the phone and starts using it in order to find out who owns it. Send an empty string to disable the overlay message. You can add some formatting by starting the message with the word 'top' or 'bottom' and you can add newlines with '<br>'

Screen timeout
Set screen timeout in seconds
Package display
This control will hide the app from the application launcher. You must restart the phone in order to take effect. The purpose is to make it a little harder for a thief to find out that this app is installed by looking at the apps in the launcher. If you need to start the app you can do so from google play or the SMS command.
This control will display the app in the launcher
Lock timeout
Select the lock timeout in seconds. The value 0 means default value so if you wish a quick lock you should select 1 second. This control is useful for HTC users where the pin code is first activated when the lock screen times out and not when the phone is ordered to be locked!
SIM card owner
When the app detects that an unknown SIM card has been inserted it will send a warning to the SMS notification number and start a polling service. That way you can still use both the SMS commands and web controls even if the google account on the phone has been blocked and google cannot send push messages.
Lock phone
On android 6 and above you can only lock unlocked phones - not change the existing lock.
Click the button and the phone will lock the screen with the 4 digit pincode. You must first have accepted the admin rights on the phone (cannot be initiated remote). If you leaves the pincode empty the phone will be unlocked.
Unlock phone
Click the button and the phone will unlocked. You must first have accepted the admin rights on the phone (cannot be initiated remote).

Polling service
Here you can start and stop the polling service on the phone. As default the app will not start the polling service. It will only be started if the sim card is changed or you have requested it to run. You can request a status message in order to see if polling is running on the device.

Backup browser
After you have made a backup you can go to this page to browse your content. Please note that this is a prototype and is not yet running on a secure site and does not require any password.

A proper backup service will be implemented later :-)
Backup SMS inbox

FTP password:
Default directory:
Content browser
THIS IS A PROTOTYPE. This will start a webserver on your phone. That way you can download your holiday pictures even if you have lost your phone. After starting the server on the phone you can get the link to browse it in Settings->Logs. Please note that this is a prototype and may be quite unstable. Do not expect to much. The server will automatically stop if it is not used for some time. You will loose the connection to the server if it moves between 3G and WIFI connection. Your pictures are usually stored under /sdcard/DCIM/
App launcher
From this control you can launch 3rd party apps. Just enter the package name, i.e. 'com.rovio.angrybirds' or 'com.domobile.ftpshare' to start an FTP server on your device. You can find the package name in the google play url: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.domobile.ftpshare
Contact search
Here you can search your contacts by name.
Capture screenshot
Click to capture a screenshot on your device. Will be saved under /mnt/sdcard/ScreenCapture/ In a future version it will be delivered to the webpage directly but for now you must use the content browser to fetch it. Only works on old android versions like 2.3.5. I guess I am not supposed to take screenshots from the code since it is so difficult on newer versions.
Reboot phone
Click to reboot your device. Will only work on rooted phones with premium features enabled.
Shutdown phone
Click to shutdown your device. Will only work on rooted phones with premium features enabled.
Info
Use the SMS pincode or SMS allow to allow other phones to control your phone. This is a very useful feature in case your phone is not connected to the internet or if you google account has been disabled on your phone so Google cannot push messages to your phone. If your phone is stolen and the thief changes your sim card your account on the phone will be disabled.
Please note that on newer versions of android (4.4 KitKat) the messages will appear in the SMS inbox. On older versions the SMS'es are hidden.
SMS allow
Enter a phonenumber that is allowed to send SMS commands to your phone. Useful in case both wifi and data is disabled. To allow multiple numbers separate the number with a comma ','. To remove allowed sender submit the text 'closed'.
SMS pincode
Enter a pincode that will allow any number to send SMS commands to your device even if they are not in the SMS allowed list. The pincode must be entered right after androidlost, i.e. 'androidlost 1234 alarm 5' to start the alarm from any phone.
