I recently lost my Rogers iPhone (Canada) within 2hr of realizing my mistake I went into action 1- I called Rogers and asked when the last call was made and to deactivate SIM card. My phone had the locking feature on (after 4hr) and a SIM lock as well.. 2- I called Apple and gave them the SERIAL# and reported it as Lost/Stolen. 3- Filed a online police report giving them the IMEI# and SERIAL#. I asked Rogers if they could track the iPhone thru its IMEI# and they said yes but that they were unable to give me that information. So what about Apple are they void of responsibility too since if the (new owner/Thief) tries to connect to iTunes are they not required to register the phone with it SERIAL# which has been flagged as Stolen, and shouldn’t APPLE contact its original owner. And as for the police I just can imagine being laughed out of the station with my petty request, not so petty if it becomes Identity theft. So other then being charged an outrageous price for a replacement there is absolutely nothing to protect the iPhone consumer.. If anyone out there has any solutions for apps that would work or GPS tracking websites for this very situation or some form of Advocacy group that would hold Cell companies and Apple who have the technology to assist in recovery of stolen good responsible. At the moment the consumer is not only the victim but also the cash cow… and the thief is rewarded with a new $$$ iPhone and cell service and the Cell company gets replacement $$$ for a new iPhone from me and a new customer (the thief ) so its a WIN WIN for Rogers why would they help me track my iPhone…

You can trace every cell phone. No matter if its an iPhone or Nokia 3310. If your phone is on, it is traceable

何が起こる場合に失われたお客様のイメージは、既にお持ちでない方ですかですか？私は私はどうなるか分からないよ。私の知ってるならずっと少なくてすむの呼び出しに、確かにそのとおりです。イメージを取得して盗まれた場合は、自分自身見つけることができます。

All cellphones are traceable through said companies phones. As long as the phone is on. They can triangulate the general area, with some more advanced phones they can triangulate the exact point of the phone. It all depends on the company, and the phoen makers too.
