Great Cell Phone Tips!

I have found it very useful to log into a new phone using my Google account. You will have your emails, calendar and other Google data backed up on your phone when you do this. Google has a tracker feature which can also be used to locate your phone if it is lost. Your phone can serve as a backup device for you files. This means setting up a Google Drive on your phone. Ensure that you have a phone with plenty space.

If your phone is lost, you can use Google to lock it, shut it down and  to wipe the information from the phone to prevent your confidential data from getting in the wrong hands.

It is very important to know your phone's IMEI. Just enter *#6# on the key pad. It will also give you the serial number. If you purchase a second hand phone it is is important to find out what the IMEI number is. Enter the IMEI number at the website at the link below, to see if your phone has been blocked because it is a stolen phone.
