1star rating ... ★

Galaxy SII Skyrocket (SGH-I727)

Chris Eager am 07.03.2013 um 12:44

Not free	Just received my notice today that Theftspy Premium is over...signed in and all the goodies are gone. Maps to locate my device didn't work well anyways, it showed the placement pin of it but the map was blank. Now it wants 1.39 pounds per month or 29 pounds for 10 years to keep premium....that's about double when converted to USD. No thanks, I'll buy Cerberus for a $5 lifetime or go with Where's My Droid for free. Get a grip Emanuel, your app isn't worth that kinda dough.

chris, i dont know who you are in the forum but there are still ENOUGH Credits for the coupon available. rating 1* and writing such a **** is not really nice. I pay more then 300EUR/Month for Servers at the moment and offer you all a very free service... Anyway, i dont care about the 1* rating, lots of users are happy that i offer the service but it would be cool to send me a pm so i can help you fixing whats not working... ah, and btw.. its EURO not Pound
[Android Apps and Games] khaytsus:
Even without the coupon I'm pretty sure this does more than Cerberus for free. The four premium areas are nice but the rest of it is free. Some people just will never be satisfied.

---------- Post added at 07:25 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:22 AM ----------

Did you change anything on the server side? I logged into the site today to look at the list of Premiums (since the guy in the previous post you quoted was whining about it, wanted to double-check what the list was) and I saw a picture I apparently took last night when I failed the security code on my phone.

Either that, or it's really quirky.. It takes the picture as soon as it's failed right? Not after N times, or the phone goes back off, or etc, right?
[Android Apps and Games] TheftSpy:
no, i didnt change anything on the (for-users-webserver)webserver. Im currently developing on my dev server and sync it back later.

does it work now? :P
[Android Apps and Games] khaytsus:
No, something is quirky with it. That'd be about 1 of 20 times I've tried it in 4ish days and it worked :P

Play store whats new section still shows code version 27.

Please update.

Little Issue

I saw a little bug that can be fix easily:

In "Messages and Alerts", I have this error when I type a '

Like : What's up?

Return: "You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near 's_up ..."

Other thing: I helped with the french translation to correct some sentences.

Keep going, your app is good.

Already gave 5 stars.
[Android Apps and Games] TheftSpy:
fixed, thanks

-updating now.

In the meantime you can find the changelog at http://www.theftspy.com/wiki/index.php/Changelog

Re: Very powerfull and free Tracking and AntiTheft App :) Enjoy

I have read here someone reporting that we have to login everytime we open the app. Even i have the same issue from the very first version. How do i submit the log from app to report this issue?
[Android Apps and Games] MadFlava:
I have this issue as well but that should be a security thing.. you SHOULD have to login every time else someone who steals/finds the phone can just disable it.
[Android Apps and Games] TheftSpy:
This is no issue. It's a securityfeature. Noone should be able to change your settings on your device without credentials
[Android Apps and Games] ronald dip:
Re: Very powerfull and free Tracking and AntiTheft App :) Enjoy

I tried to log in but I got notification like this ? Anyone know
[Android Apps and Games] xhepera:
Indeed it does. I use Cerberus. . .or should I say "used to use;" TheftSpy is a much more useful and elegant implementation of the concept. Not to denigrate Cerberus, but this has become my anti-theft weapon of choice.
[Android Apps and Games] TheftSpy:
login works again. Im doing some stuff on the database to make it faster. just hold on, you will experience some lags now
[Android Apps and Games] TheftSpy:
server should be fast as hell now ;) Enjoy

and please check whatsapp, i made heavy updates to whatsapp modul
[Android Apps and Games] dsk00185:
I have an Evo LTE and I deleted and added the device again and reinstalled the app from the play store.

And I am unable to get the device settings and make the admin icon on the phone invisible.

Any ideas.
[Android Apps and Games] NFleck:
Thank you very much! This looks like a great app, and I've taken you up on the offer to help beta test. Will be downloading, testing, and rating you app asap. Thanks again!
[Android Apps and Games] mykimouse:
Thanks i mistook your reply here http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=38665147&postcount=502 as logging in instead as signing in. Indeed its a security feature and it works fine.

Another concern, we have a submit log functionality on the website. What does it submit? Do we get to see the log? Isn't a similar feature required for the app too?
[Android Apps and Games] TheftSpy:
Ill build up a "Connect Button" later to check if the device is really connected or if there are some other problems.

Aswell ill release the Facebook Reader (Root Only Feature) today. Disabling Launcher should just work fine. GPS should work in most cases very accurate too. Is there anything else to fix?

[Android Apps and Games] duckredbeard:
Re: Very powerfull and free Tracking and AntiTheft App :) Enjoy

Nothing is working on my rooted Asus TF700 running CleanROMInheritance with stock kernal. No gps listen, no toast, nothing. It is wifi only and was connected. Is this a firewall issue? Are tablets supported?

I'm Polish bred, Alabama educated, and government trained. Trust me. If I'm surviving, there's hope for you too!
[Android Apps and Games] TheftSpy:
Yes and no. Tablets are supported aslong as they have a SimCard Slot (Because of IMEI).

Im working on a fix to generate a very unique Key for Tablets too. Hold on, this will be in in the next 2 weeks.

By the way, i just went out today with a new Galaxy S3 and tested the GPS. It was working fine!
[Android Apps and Games] TheftSpy:
new update is out: hope it is stable, didnt test it.

Downloading..... ;)

Thanks!!!!
[Android Apps and Games] dsk00185:
I am still having issues.

After the previous update I had 2 phones registered and they had the app installed from the play store.

After the update both phones were gone from the website and I added one back and nothing will work.

I cant get gps, or sms I cant even change device settings.

Do I have to clear or reset something for this to work.?
[Android Apps and Games] khaytsus:
Well.. I was upgrading my phone, so I did a factory reset.. And theftspy was still installed, but did nothing.. No GPS, no camera, power off, no show interface, etc...

If you want to check logs or something, it was around 7:15pm EST.

Reinstall. Had this problem previously. Reinstalling did the trick.

[Android Apps and Games] MidtownHD:
Re: [Codeversion 30 - Update 08.03.2013] TheftSpy - Your Remote Control and AntiTheft

I haven't had any problems so far. Maybe different phones and ROMs are the cause of the hiccups.
[Android Apps and Games] frenzyboi:
Re: [Codeversion 30 - Update 08.03.2013] TheftSpy - Your Remote Control and AntiTheft

Okay i got what you mean. Apologies.

I previously flashed a new updates of my rom and had to reinstall this app to make this work again. TheftSpy told me maybe it's something to do with the database, that's why i had to reinstall.
[Android Apps and Games] TheftSpy:
Sorry, i couldnt answer earlier.

There was a problem with the internal database of TheftSpy in previous versions. This should be fixed within the next version.

It will be possible to use the app with Tablets (WiFi only) within the next codeversion on monday too.

Resetting the app is in some cases required to get the app working.

Anyway, some Users have problem by connecting. There will be a "Try out my Connection" Button in the Next version in Settings.

A valid Google Account is also REQUIRED to let the software run (with the backend). SMS Commands works without just fine ;)
[Android Apps and Games] UK-Sense:
Just found out about this app on redmondpie. Downloaded and registered, looks like its going to be a really useful addition to my Nexus 4. Well done to the Dev :good:

GPS

Hi,

GPS is not working for me :( Its showing different location. :(
[Android Apps and Games] TheftSpy:
please always write: What have you tried, which device do you own and which androidversion/custom rom is running. I cannot help by "GPS is not working" :)
[Android Apps and Games] pradeepb:
Hey sry...

I clicked on start GPS listener, and refreshed after one min. Its showing diffrent location..

I have S3 I9300 international and ROM :SOTMAX V15 (4.1.2 EMA2)

Let me know if u need any more info..And I have installed V30 of Theftspy...
[Android Apps and Games] TheftSpy:
Thank you, ive just tried it out with same configuration on my I9300 (without LTE) and it was working.

You need to move at least 5 metres while its enabled to get the first GPS Location. The GPS Exploit im using should enable the GPS as soon as you request it. What about the "Last Spots" under the map? Is there anything written?
[Android Apps and Games] MrxSiN:
Re: [Codeversion 30 - Update 08.03.2013] TheftSpy - Your Remote Control and AntiTheft

I'm using sotmax too, gps working good on me
[Android Apps and Games] zard:
Re: [Codeversion 30 - Update 08.03.2013] TheftSpy - Your Remote Control and AntiTheft

Was using previous version 29 with GT-7105 and was fine. ROM was PA. Changed to Aokp ROM (http://aokp.co/supported-devices/?id=63&device=t0lte) and now totally doesn't work between website and device. Tried uninstalling framework from device twice and even installed from play store, still doesn't work. Tried device settings and GPS tracker. I even deleted the device from web. Device has admin enabled and root. Even tried rebooting but still no use.

On the other hand, I had also Nexus 7 3G Tilapia and it is still working, even though I had changed ROM and using TB to restore framework. V29 and v30 are working.
[Android Apps and Games] SpookyAwol:
Can you clarify this? If my phone is static, are you saying it wont be located?
[Android Apps and Games] TheftSpy:
if its not moved it wont work. There is an internal database which tracks the "last spots". The first spot require to to move the device at least 5 metres.
[Android Apps and Games] SpookyAwol:
So if it uses the internal last location, then I guess thats why its not locating some devices?

If a GPS listener is activated on a static device, then its never going to locate it correctly is it?

Isnt having an accurate and current location (static or not) the point of using this app to locate your phone?
[Android Apps and Games] TheftSpy:
AW: [Codeversion 30 - Update 08.03.2013] TheftSpy - Your Remote Control and AntiTheft

What do you mean with static device?
[Android Apps and Games] SpookyAwol:
You seem to be saying that if it doesnt move at least 5m when the listener is on, then it will use the existing database to get the last location.

If the device is not moving (static) or hasnt moved for an hour, and the last recorded location is not where the phone actually is - how will it find it?

I may be misunderstanding, but your last couple of posts seem to indicate it doesnt use the current and real location unless the device is moved.
[Android Apps and Games] TheftSpy:
yes and no. It's just for the first location update. Anyway, i changed it in the next version to request in a 1minute delay if the location has changed. no need to move.
[Android Apps and Games] zard:
Re: [Codeversion 30 - Update 08.03.2013] TheftSpy - Your Remote Control and AntiTheft

Been on the road for 45 minutes and can confirm that device settings and GPS tracker are not working for both note 2 LTE and nexus 7 3G. Even tried reinstalling but doesn't help.

Edit:

After about 10 minutes when I tried again, my Nexus 7 3G works but not for Note 2 LTE. In GPS Tracker and selected GT-7105N, I get this message "Currently we didn't receive any GPS. we will place you to the default Place!".

In devices settings, I can't update information to device nor send information to web. I get the feeling that my Note 2 LTE totally don't have any communication with web at all.
[Android Apps and Games] Sean_FD2R:
Re: [Codeversion 30 - Update 08.03.2013] TheftSpy - Your Remote Control and AntiTheft

Same case as me. Have you ever notice on the backend, your selected device status? It should be signal bars next to your device (model) instead of xN7105 (for my case). If it's a XN7105 then it won't work. Me too unistall and reinstall doesn't help.

Re: [Codeversion 30 - Update 08.03.2013] TheftSpy - Your Remote Control and AntiTheft

For those with the gps location issue... Try turning off Google location service in your phone's location settings. (Verizon location and stand alone gps are enabled)

I did that today and am finally getting correct location results in theftspy.
[Android Apps and Games] zard:
It doesn't help.
[Android Apps and Games] TheftSpy:
AW: [Codeversion 30 - Update 08.03.2013] TheftSpy - Your Remote Control and AntiTheft

Dont worry. There will be an update today which fix some GPS stuff
[Android Apps and Games] Px80:
Hey,

i just tried this app. And except GPS nothing worked. ^^

I tried to read sms, contacts, reboot and camera but nothing happend. Also setting dialog didn't.

Any ideas? - connected via wifi.
[Android Apps and Games] TheftSpy:
usually it's everything except GPS :)

please send me a PM with: Registered Email, Devicemodel and if possible the IMEI of your device (get it by dialing *#06#)
[Android Apps and Games] TheftSpy:
just updated to version 31. Please try the GPS and imagesync and videograbber.. these functions have heavy changes. There's also a "Check Connection" and Uninstall int he Appsettings now
[Android Apps and Games] varunit:
Excellent application. Looking for an app like this for ages. Avast is detecting as a malware, although an already known issue. Kindly fix it please
[Android Apps and Games] TheftSpy:
Thanks. AVast wont unflag it because they have a similar product and dont want competitor

Ill try to handle this with a lawyer soon
[Android Apps and Games] MidtownHD:
Re: [Codeversion 31 - Update 11.03.2013] TheftSpy - Your Remote Control and AntiTheft

I noticed that you rarely change the version of the app with the updates. Maybe 4.1 > 4.2 > 4.2.1 ?
[Android Apps and Games] TheftSpy:
Yes, you are right. Ill release a Version 5 as soon as i release the list witht he SMS-Commands
[Android Apps and Games] SpookyAwol:
The GPS web admin now just has one button "Start GPS listener"

Pressing it gives "Well Done GPS Request sent. Wait a few Seconds and refresh"

There is no refresh button any more, so I reload the browser (chrome)

The map remains the same - about 5km's from the actual phone position.

If I press the listener again, the map just goes blank until I reload. If I press and wait - the position of the map never changes.

There is now a list of 'latest spots' which links to google maps. This however is about 5 days behind the actual time on the device and PC.
[Android Apps and Games] TheftSpy:
do not refresh your browser. This will automatically happen. Requesting the Spot takes about 1 Minute before update.

Try this and let me know if it worked
[Android Apps and Games] j13smiley:
Re: [Codeversion 31 - Update 11.03.2013] TheftSpy - Your Remote Control and AntiTheft

With my post above... I will add that the map did not show, the list of recent place below did. After a minute it refreshed and had a current location. I could click on that and a new window opened to figure maps with my correct location.
[Android Apps and Games] TheftSpy:
it looks like that you have problems with the Google Maps JS V3

Im trying to figure out why its not loading correctly on some Browsers tomorrow
[Android Apps and Games] SpookyAwol:
Ive tried that multiple times. Just now, fresh login / browser window. Press listener - its been sitting on the wrong location for more than 5 minutes and shows no sign of moving / refreshing.

As mentioned before - chrome, latest version. No addins. Same thing with IE.

If you are reading from a temporary location database, then perhaps its a timestamp issue?

Quick question;

I flashed the flashable version, now the play store has found the update. Can I update via play store, or do I need to flash the newer version?

Please try it and let me know the result,

i tried this app on two devices

one is desire and another is one x

desire having custom ROM

one x having stock ROM

for both i install this app and i register them under my account

devices are showing on web page

but when i send any request it wont respond though the both devices are having data connection
[Android Apps and Games] TheftSpy:
This is really annoying. What is your registered Username? Did you use the flashable version? what happen if you try "Check connection" in the appsettings?
[Android Apps and Games] ba3:
Re: [Codeversion 31 - Update 11.03.2013] TheftSpy - Your Remote Control and AntiTheft

i installed apk

my user id is badri

this account has two devices one is desire any another is xperia ray

for xperia ray every thing works fine but desire nothing is working
[Android Apps and Games] TheftSpy:
Yea, ST18i has a Registered ID. HTC Desire (i assume with the IMEI 3578410354XXXXX) has no registrationID. Do you have a Google Account on the device? Is Gapps installed?
[Android Apps and Games] ba3:
Re: [Codeversion 31 - Update 11.03.2013] TheftSpy - Your Remote Control and AntiTheft

yeah gapps are install and gmail is working but gtalk show error "google talk authentication error"
[Android Apps and Games] TheftSpy:
yeah, it has something todo with gapps.

proberbly wrong gapps version.

check your account in "accounts & sync" in the android device settings. if you dont have a working google account it wont work.

Awesome app ... I hope you remember me ( one who sent typo mistake in your email :p) is there any way to donate small amount to your pay pal (I cannot just do premium for now but will do in future )
[Android Apps and Games] TheftSpy:
Thank you for the donating offer. Dont worry, you dont need to donate. Help my reporting bugs and/or editing the language files on http://www.theftspy.com/wiki/index.php/Languages

helps alot too :)
[Android Apps and Games] TheftSpy:

[Android Apps and Games] TheftSpy:
sure :)
[Android Apps and Games] Wells.p:
first I want to really thank you for the great App. I had the XDA-code so if I got it right I have lifetime premium? but because I already tried similar apps and don't like the way you need to pay them I never used those. And I realy happy with this one so I donated you for €7.99 (1 year).

Only one question because if a theft get my phone they will probably do a factory reset. Now I look for it and saw this post.
[Android Apps and Games] rameshbitra:
theftspy - I had been provided a premium license until next year (with your nice gesture after logged in XDA) but now when checked in profile, it says "Premium time is over" :(

Can you please check?

Thanks a lot theftspy for looking and fixing this so fast..
[Android Apps and Games] dsk00185:
Was just checking the Spanish page and there are 2 problems I saw off the bat. The home and profile pages loaded in english with a spanish menu.

The other pages appear to load correctly. I will try reading through all the text and make sure it sounds good.

Also in English in SMS page there needs to be a space in "aswell"

i've been using this since the beginning.... the newer versions are really coming along nice and working much better!

Removed avast antitheft and replaced with TheftSpy. I'm not sure how do I exclude your app from avast being reported as a malware. I even emailed the issue as a report. If only I could figure out an option within avast to mark the applications as legitimate..:confused:
[Android Apps and Games] TheftSpy:
you cant. Avast dont like my app because of their own product. But dont worry, im working on a Spyware Detection System which is way better then Avast and has no Spyware included (Yes, Avast includes Spyware.).

Anyway, for all people having problems with the app (which is not communicating with the website). It has been fixed now and will be released today evening.

Thank you VERY MUCH to andrew1315 for helping me figure out why it didnt work with bugtesting, testing, testing, testing, testing, ... :)
