Can 911 track down a stolen cell phone?
I don't think so. You can if you have T-Mobile. On the website, they allow you to see every phone call that you made. My mom's phone was stolen in September of last year. Then,one day this January, the phone # called me and it was some guy that had been using it. How he was charging it? I don't know but he realized that he called on of her contacts and hung up. She went online and saw that he had made calls to California and all these other places my mom doesn't call with her cell. Check your cell phone carriers website.
How do i track down my virgin mobile phone?
Go online and report it as lost or stolen. My daughter lost her phone, and after searching for it for a few days, we reported it lost. Virgin Mobile offered her a new (upgraded) phone for the cost of shipping (about $10 as I recall). Aside from the shipping charge, she didn't lose any money off of her account. The bad news is that the addresses and stuff she had on the phone were lost and she had to restore them manually.
Can you track a phone with no service?
only if ur friend had downloaded and registered a tracking app before it got stolen which, by the sound of it, they didnt. Only then could u log into the tracker site and trace the phone. Gps doesnt require network coverage to work. But there really isnt anything they can do now if they didnt have a tracker app.
How do you track someone with their cell phone?
There are several ways to track a mobile phone. Software,the most useless,reason being you need to have access to the target phone. Example. I feel like tracking my neighbours phone,he ain't gonna let me have his, her phone long enough to install software onto it. Also a virus scanner will detect it and notify you of it's existance.Another way. Hardware you can make yourself for approx £20 pounds. The draw back on this way is you only get one way conversation,txt. To do it properly using this way,you need a separate tracking device for EACH target phone. The best way is to use the actual networks involved. All you need for this is the IMEI. Oh i say IMEI,there is also two other ways built into mobile phones. Bluetooth,and WiFi. Both transmit serial numbers when in operation,just like your mobile transmits its serial when switched on or in use. There simply hardware addresses. And I can't say how to do that on here. Sorry it's illegal. As for changing a mobile phone IMEI,it's very easily done. The IMEI number is stored on a eeprom chip. Erasible,programmable memory chip. To do this depends upon the manufacturer make,model. You can do it with a simple code, or you may need a data cable or jig,and pc with the software on it. Companies like Nokia protect there's,you gotta be a service centre and pay for it .I.e pay for the license. Companies like Samsung,use mainly codes. Depends on the manufacturer. And the most hardest IMEI to change is iPhone s. Oh yes forgot. Cells track phones as soon as switched on,don't even need a SIM card to be tracked. Software is just snooping software,spyware. Hardware,tracking is when the phone is in use only. And a mobile device can NOT be tracked when switched off.
How can I track a turned off cell phone?
There might be something about this, but with my experience I think that you can’t track a turned off phone. Because the GPS is not in function and not only GPS but anything on your phone.There is a method with Androids called Find My Device, but this only works if the device has a connection (Wi-Fi / MobileData) but to your situation, I think taht nothing can do to get the location of that cell phone.I am sorry to let you down but that is the reality.If it is your phone, keep it near next time, don’t lose it because it may contain some information that might be relevant to you.Stay safe and cheers!

How can I track any phone number in the world for free?
Tracking down any phone number, for what purposes? Spying? Monitoring your gf's activities? Just daily updates that are casual?Probably a very, very high ranking government official can.....say, the Prime Minister or President of a country.It is impossible for a common man to do that. Especially for free.I like how jilted lovers seek these kind of solutions on Quora, instead of rationalizing their thinking process.Good luck. :)
Can someone track my cell phone number?
Well, first off it doesn't matter if it is a smartphone or not if they are going to try and find out where you live. Also it'll be hard for them to track you down, there are definitely ways to find out but most of those are going to be pretty difficult and require a lot of skill or effort. There are easy ways to find out of course, for example if he knows someone who works for your cellphone carrier then they can find your billing address/residence, or if he works for some government agency that does this kind of thing regularly lol. But realistically he can't track you. It still doesn't mean its a good idea to actually give out your number though, cuz you still never know where that'll end up.
