Experience the whole process of recovering the lost mobile phone of Huawei HarmonyOS within three days.

Written in front, in fact, the person who lost his mobile phone is my dad, but because he doesn't know how to use the settings of his mobile phone, I am operating all the steps in the whole process, so I will describe the whole text in the first person to facilitate the reading experience. The mobile phone models are glory V20 and harmony2.0 systems, and it has also been confirmed with glory that the relevant settings of magic ui installed in the new HONOR are universal, and other glory model users equipped with magic ui can rest assured to read and learn from them.

Time goes back to the lost days. On the afternoon of July 15, 2022, my father lost his mobile phone while riding a bike outside. When he got home, he found that he couldn't find anything on his way back. He tried to make a phone call on his friend's cell phone. After the first connection, the other party didn't speak. When he dialed for the second time, the other party was turned off.

Let my dad take his ID card to the nearby mobile business hall to report the loss of the mobile phone card, so that the old mobile phone card will be invalid. This is especially critical for later progress. The other party can't use the mobile phone number to receive the verification code, or call someone else's phone for fraud.

In this step, the password of the original Huawei/Glory account needs to be used. New devices in different places cannot log in to Huawei/Glory account only through the verification code, and the password must be verified. The trouble is that my dad has completely forgotten the password of his mobile phone account except his mobile phone number, and he doesn't know how to get it back. You can only do it yourself, and you can receive the verification through the original mobile phone number that has completed the card replacement. Repeat the operation several times to reset Huawei/Glory account password. This step is relatively simple. Just choose to forget the password and set a new password by using the original mobile phone number to accept the verification code, and you can complete the login of the new device.

Therefore, if you lose your mobile phone for the first time, you must reissue the lost mobile phone card. Even if you don't want to get your mobile phone back, you should prevent the other party from using your mobile phone number to steal bank information, identity information, loan fraud and so on.

That evening, I came home and used my recovered Huawei/Glory account password to log in to Cloud Hosting (/). I found "Find Device", located the device information first, and then selected "Lost Mode". At this time, an edited text will pop up to the effect that the other party can contact your template and adjust the description by itself.

Note that the old mobile phone is offline at this time, because the other party is turned off. I'll finish the relevant settings first, then choose online notification and fill in the mobile phone number where you want to receive SMS. When the other party is connected to the internet, they will immediately locate it, enter the lost mode and send me a text message. At this point, the key first step is completed. To unlock the account, the other party must enter the password of the original Huawei/Glory account. 16 On July 26th at 2 1:22, the other party went online for the first time, and the mobile phone officially entered "lost mode". The other party should be guilty. When he saw this state, he immediately turned it off, because 10 minutes later, it was turned on again, and the positioning display remained unchanged. At this time, he basically determined where the mobile phone is and can follow it. However, when I missed the air and looked for it along the location, there was no one left. The phone is offline again.

16 at 22:02 pm, the other party went online again, and the mobile phone executed the automatic data clearing instruction to unlock the activation lock.

Going to the last step is really helpless, because the data of the old mobile phone is not synchronized with the cloud, and the value of the mobile phone itself is not much. What is valuable is the photos and other data in the mobile phone. Deleting data is also for the sake that the mobile phone can't be found back. On the second day after the loss, the other party was offline for a long time and dared not turn it on.

Anyway, this step is still to log in to cloud hosting on the computer side. Check the erased data. After confirmation, when the old mobile phone goes online again, all data, including the set data, will be automatically erased, and the Huawei/Glory account that has been logged in on the old device will also be emptied. But don't worry about being unable to locate or retrieve the old mobile phone after clearing the account information. After the data is erased, the old mobile phone will automatically open the activation lock, which can only be accessed through the original Huawei/Glory password. In the meantime, you can still find and receive online notification messages.

On the third day of loss, 17, July, 12:54, I received an online reminder from my old mobile phone. The other party may be unable to hold back, online and offline several times. After the positioning information and time of the first two days, it has basically been inferred who picked up the mobile phone and did not return it. Positioning appears repeatedly in one place, and that place happens to be a resident. According to the location, I searched again. Although the equipment went offline again, I tried to communicate after meeting my family. At first, I denied it. Later, I took out a lot of notification messages, location maps, online time and so on. This may be psychological fear. After all, every time I surf the Internet, the old mobile phone will also have a bright screen message (the message I edited in Chapter 4) and leave my number for him to contact. Seeing this battle, the other side changed its mind and agreed, but still refused to give up directly. At this time, it was confirmed that the other party took it. I was reasonable and moved, and I also made concessions to the other party, giving 200 yuan a hard fee. On the third day after I lost my mobile phone, I successfully got it back.

The process of finding the lost mobile phone in three days is not very complicated, but it takes a lot of effort. The old mobile phone itself is worthless, but the data inside is not uploaded to the cloud. It is best to think about nature. When I deleted the data, I gave up hope, and finally I was lucky to get it back. After all, if the other party keeps denying it, I will call the police, and even if I can finally get my phone back, I am exhausted.

During the whole process, I didn't use the ringtone in lost mode once, because if the phone rings rashly, it will alert the other party and it is not conducive to getting it back. Only when the mobile phone is online and just in your sight, you can choose to play it if you are sure that you can hear the ringtone and find it quickly.

The above is the whole process of getting my honor back after I lost it. Let me share my experience. I hope it can help you to be vigilant and take precautions. Of course, I hope you will never encounter such a loss.
