VMS - Secure and track your lost mobile handset and cell phones

By Manav

virtual mobile security We often come across mails from friends or relatives, hitting our Inbox, demanding for our contact number, as their cell phone, or mobile handset , smart phone has been stolen or lost, and our contact details too flew off with that handset. In-fact this friend or relative could be you, who lost his cell phone and you can not do anything to trace it back.

It seems that now an elixir for such situations has arrived. VMS is a product of Innova Technologies. VMS stands for “Virtual Mobile Security”.

Features of VMS

  • VMS allows user to get notified for any calls (incoming or outgoing), messages (sent or received), any changes made in phonebook, after the theft of cell-phone, smart phones
  • User also comes to know about the new SIM number, at the registered number, which has been inserted in handset after the theft.
  • User can spy the thief, by making call to new inserted SIM, and hearing the conversation of thief, without the knowledge of thief.
  • Siren alarm can be raised in lost cell-phone, in order to let people in vicinity of lost cell-phone know about the phone theft.
  • Either a particular name from phonebook or the whole phonebook can be retrieved remotely by the owner of cell-phone.
  • Cell-phone can be locked, in order to prevent the misuse of data.
  • Compatible Handsets : N72,N70,N90,6682,6681,6680,3230,6670,6630,6260,7610,6620,6600, N-Gage etc.

How Virtual Mobile Security Works

#1 Choosing a Password and Hot key

After the installation of VMS, it automatically asks for user defined password, after this hot key is to be defined, hot key also works as a shortcut to open VMS.

      wow….I am waiting for this…Ashish, is this compatible with N73?

    • Ashish Mohta, January 7, 2008:

      @Rajesh: The post was written by Manav. By mistake it came under my name. We will have to wait for him to reply on this.

    • Manav, January 7, 2008:

      @ Rajesh, Rajest as the list of handsets i gave here have Symbian 8.1 as o.s. , so its like we can expect N 73 too to be compatible..as it has Symbian 9.1.

    • Technology Guru, January 8, 2008:

      Wow this will really rock the world man.I read it in some other blog also.

    • Manav, January 8, 2008:

      @ Technology Guru, yes, VMS will for sure be able to drop the mobile theft rate significantly.

    • Brian, February 11, 2008:

      We need software for all nokia models else there is nothing to be proud of….

      There are many Nokia users and many Nokia models with GPRS and so on, but these LMTS companies provide only 8 to 9 models. This is not fair..
      Wat happened to the other models????

      They must create a single software to be able to work in all nokia phones and not just this listed models.

    • Manav, February 11, 2008:

      @ Brian, Exactly my point, but I think the O.S. versions prior to symbian 8.1 are not efficient enough to support these kind of services, may be because of that we dont have these softwares for them. Thanks for the comment.

    • ravi soni, February 20, 2008:

      hi , i was jst visiting abt the technologies in which we can trace our lost mobile phones .. so it seems quiet interesting that through a software i can trace my mobile .. i remember last year when i lost my mobile i went to police and made complaint … they said they dun hav in their services to search ur lost mobile .. then i went to telephone operator .. wht they said .. even we cant help u .. dammmnn shyyyt if i m purchasing a mobile cost arround Rs 11000 .. whts the result then .. if m not get helped bye these .. i still missing my mobile .. i m still searching for something that help me …and the person who stole it .. i have IMEI number of my phone and really wants to get it back …
      thnxxx waiting for reply

    • Ashish Mohta, February 20, 2008:

      @Ravi: Did you talk to the mobile company ? I guess only the combination of operators and mobile company can work together. Try it. And police can certainly be of no help in these matters. One more thing you cant get it back but at the max you can make it unusable. 

    • Abhi, February 28, 2008:

      Flashing the phone software will get rid of any anti-theft software. i.e if at all the thief is smart enough or this VMS software becomes famous.
      But what the heck, my mobile is already stolen :(
