Device stolen still appears, with the name of the new carrier! - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I noticed that my Nexus One (stolen the 8th of July) still appears on my devices lists on Google Play, with some interesting informations
I want to clarify that this happens with the Google Account password changed (because I did it after the theft)!

My carrier wasn't Wind but H3G.
I assume there is nothing I can do, because I've changed the password of the Google Account (for security reasons), but I'm curious if there is some different way to find the new SIM number.
The IMEI would be blocked on the entire territory from tomorrow, so this as***** will be able to use it with no phone functions.
Thanks

If it shows up on your market account you could log in to play store and push a tracking app to it.
You could then locate who has it as well as tell the police and or the thiefs carrier.

You can set up geographic areas based on latitude and longitude, address, or current location. Each location can send a text message to the person you designate. There are options for time of day restrictions, limiting how frequently the message can be sent, and you can customize your own message however you'd like.
Perfect for:
-When you get to work and want to let your significant other know (but you don't want to have to remember)
-When you want to let your friends know you've just gotten to the party
-Telling your parents you safely made it to school
This is a slightly older project I worked on for a while, and decided to post it up here to see if there's any interest for further development of features.
Feedback is greatly appreciated. I know the UI could probably use some work to make it more intuitive.

play store says it's not compatible with my g900f. Is this restricted by country?
Edit: i've just opened the link via mobile and it says not available in my country. Please make it available for all.

Sorry about that. I just went and selected "all countries". It says it could take a while to update though.
Let me know what you think. I take criticism pretty well

Save to google in Android L. Did it return back?

Hi,
On my old Samsung Ace Plus phone running an older Android version v2.x, I used to read/save contacts directly to google (shown below in picture) because I simply don't wanna save on phone or sim card. For some reason, I didn't find this option on my LG G2 international version thinking that this feature have been removed for some reason from KK4.4.2 which I'm running so I missed it a lot but there was nothing to do about it since I didn't find it also on e.g. Samsung S4 running KK which kinda confirmed to me that it's a KK thing and not mobile dependent.
Is there any one who have seen this feature back on Android L which I'm waiting for, officially, in early 2015?

it's not persistent! I tried it millions of times before but for some mysterious reason, I have to go through the whole boring process of choosing where to save my contact every time I create a new contact!
Tried this?

When you create a contact in AOSP 4.4.x it will state "Phone" (local phone account, unsynced) and "Google" as destinations for saving contacts.

No more official chance to unlock bootloader

I found this thread, it is related to the Honor10 but i don't hope it will be extended to all Huawei products

IT will extend. As I read that's the deal Huawei had to take to launch devices in the US. No more unlocking, rooting and so on. All pages will go down soon.

Damn. I really wanted the M5 with LTE. I have the M3 and the only thing I don't like about it is no LTE. I know that one of the models has all AT&T bands except for band 2, but in my area I've only seen band 2 except for a few instances of band 12 and it was only 2 bars.
Just saw that today. I was really disappointed
And there is an additional requirement for requesting unlock from Huawei:
2. 用户必须在申请解锁的设备上登录华为云帐号并使用超过两周;

That is not written in the English version. It means:
The device MUST log on to Huawei Cloud account for over 2 weeks.

I just started my Huawei Cloud account (I feel using China's service is not right and disabled them on my first run). Hope I cloud pass through their requirement within the last 60 days ?
Otherwise I must pay for unlock, which does not seems right to me
Got mine now in case it's needed at some point in the future.. Thanks for letting us know.
OK, I'm new to this concept. So if I ever want to unlock the bootloader, I need to get a code now before the service is discontinued? But that code will be good forever, for repeated unlockings if needed?
And in order to get that code, I need to use Huawei cloud service for two weeks?
@Obveron: Yes, yes and no. I have not used the cloud thingy.

No update since Sept 2018. Region issues??

Hiya, I have an S9+ I have had no updates since September 2018. Is this normal or have there been patches and updates since? Also no sign of one ui update either...
Also, can anyone identify what is the model of my phone, region etc. As I'm from the UK but I'm pretty sure from what I've searched, my phone is a Taiwanese model or something
My phone is completely stock no modifications at all, the phone is dual sim and I believe it is factory unlocked although my network is Three.

Post some screenshots of your phone info or from the phone info app, with model number, firmware, etc. I'm sure you'll get all the help you need from the community that way.
Have you flashed or modified the phone at all? If not then it's possible that no update has been issued by whatever carrier you're using in your region?
Hi sorry to jump in but can someone tell me if this is correct software on my mother inlaw plus please
I am having the same issue. Creating a vpn connection to countries with the rollout doesn't allow me to update either. https://ptpimg.me/w78n4r.jpg

Do you have Google's device manager enabled? You could change your's password there https://www.google.com/android/devicemanager

The last version of Android where you could remotely change the device password if you got locked out of your phone was Kit Kat.
The only time I've heard of an update making the device stop recognizing the correct password is when a custom recovery is being used that can't properly decrypt data in which case the owner could boot back into TWRP and reformat the device memory.
In this case it sounds much more like somebody with a stolen phone trying to bypass the security set up by the legitimate owner.
As far as I know helping somebody do that still gets you banned from XDA.
If the OP here is the legitimate owner then there is probably a hardware problem with that phone and he should get it serviced under the warranty.
It's probably a script that's poorly written. Not necessarily the update.
