This week we’ve highlighted WaveSecure Mobile Security<\/a> as App of the Week for its awesomeness in finding a lost or stolen phone plus backup capabilities. We recently found 6 useful nuggets on Wavesecure’s blog<\/a> that will allow you to maximize the app’s features. Let’s get started:<\/p>\n

1.<\/span> Find your misplaced phone without a PC.<\/strong> Not only can you locate your lost\/stolen phone on their website, but you can text it to sound the alarm or do other things like lock, customize screen, locate and even wipe the phone by SMS text from another phone using the following commands:<\/p>\n

\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Command<\/th>\nWhat It Does<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n
Lock<\/td>\nTo lock your phone, send \u201cSecure lock\u00a0\u201d.\u00a0Eg. \u201cSecure lock 123456\u201d<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Customize lock screen<\/td>\nTo change your lock screen message, send \u201cSecure lock\u00a0\u201d.\u00a0Eg. \u201cSecure lock 123456 Please contact 911 to return\u201d.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Sound alarm<\/td>\nTo lock your phone, send \u201cSecure lock alarm\u00a0\u201d or with a custom message \u201cSecure lock alarm\u201d.\u00a0Eg. \u201cSecure lock alarm 123456\u201d<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Locate<\/td>\nSend \u201cSecure locate\u00a0\u201d for a SMS with a link to track the current location of the phone.\u00a0Eg. \u201cSecure locate 123456\u201d<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Wipe<\/td>\nTo erase the phone\u2019s data, send \u201cSecure wipe\u201d.\u00a0Eg. \u201cSecure wipe 123456\u201d<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/div>\n

2.<\/span> Automatically backup your data.<\/strong> Schedule backups and forget about it. The app backups up incremental data like contacts and text messages. Plus backups can be done automatically while charging (feature not available for Android 1.5)<\/em>.<\/p>\n

3.<\/span> Migrate your data to a new phone.<\/strong> One pain in upgrading to new phones is the restoration of contacts, text message, etc. Migration to new devices and even cross platform devices can be done as WaveSecure is on Android, BlackBerry, Symbian S60 and Windows Mobile.<\/p>\n

4.<\/span> Locate your phone the battery-friendly way.<\/strong> Android phones are notorious for draining batteries. You can control how often the app tracks the phone to conserve some battery power.<\/p>\n

5.<\/span> Find out who the thief is calling.<\/strong> Say your Droid-baby<\/em> gets stolen, and the thief swaps the SIM card… no worries, WaveSecure tracks call and text message logs so you get the thief’s number as well as who they have been calling\/texting to track down the phone.<\/p>\n

6.<\/span> Root Your Android Phone, Make WaveSecure Invulnerable.<\/strong> “Rooting” your Android may be a little challenging – but it’s worth the effort! Root version not only makes WaveSecure hard-reset proof, it also enables GPS tracking even if it’s set to be off!\u00a0NerdGirl has been answering a lot of user inquiries about Rooting<\/a> in her Ask NerdGirl column<\/a>, to learn more head on over!<\/p>\n

If you haven’t picked up the app, now you can get it at 20% off the annual $19.90 charge by liking them on\u00a0Facebook<\/a> or following on\u00a0Twitter<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Hopefully these juicy tips will help you maximize your Android phone. Tell us if you knew about these tips or even your lost\/stolen stories using apps like these in the comments below<\/a>!<\/p>\n
