what's 4.12?How do I know if it was configured or not ?
The last location of the phone is saved from 4.12
No, because when I got to the computer, the phone was off, so I could't do anything.
If the phone is off you need the pin to unlock the sim, so there's no point of trying, because it won't work, he can't activate the sim, no sim no find my phone I worry.Keep trying. If someone found/stole it they have to turn it on eventually.
Is there a way to scedule constant "find my phone" updates until it succeeds? That way you don't have to babysit it until it says it successuflly found/locked/whatever it.
Keep in mind most theives won't be smart enough to immediately remove the SIM (assuming it is tied to a sim, and not to your serial number) - they'll want to check the phone out to make sure it works first.
