(solved)Lock phone by sending sms, is it possible?
 
i some time forget my mobile at my office or my factory. and i am afraid if my prsonal data is stolen or misused

so i or anyone who is like me MUST need this feature can you help?

EDIT:- I know about smscon, it can lock phone via sms but it locks phone only when the sim is changed

solved- smscon can lock the phone without changing the sim!!!

You would need a daemon running in the background that would check incoming sms for a keyword. If smscon is open source you got the other half done for you. No idea if there is opensourced-sms-parsing-daemon around for the first half.

With smscon you can send a sms to lock the phone. You don't need to change the sim for that.
