Theft Aware Executive Summary

Theft Aware provides data protection and theft recovery for smartphones. It enables you to control and
find your device in the event of loss or theft.
"A mobile phone gets stolen in the UK every 45 seconds. Thats nearly 800,000 handsets a
year." (uknetguide.co.uk)
"If your phone is stolen and a thief changes the SIM card, it usually is gone forever as the phone changes
its identity... Theft Aware enables you to stay in contact with your phone even after that event." (Reinhard
Holzner, CEO ITAgents)
WHATS NEW IN VERSION 2.00

Please find the news about Theft Aware 2.00 at http://www.theftaware.com/?step=whats_new.
THEFT AWARE BASICS

Unveil the Thiefs Identity
To enable communication to your phone you will register up to two notification numbers with Theft
Aware (i.e. friends of yours, or your second phone). Those friends will then receive all Theft Aware
messages for you. Now, if the thief changes the SIM card of the phone, Theft Aware will invisibly send
the phone number of the thief to those recipient numbers. By using the phone number of the thief you
can stay in contact with your phone.
The notification SMS contains:

-
Figure 1: Example of
Notification SMS
Phone number of the thief

Network specific information
GPS coordinates if available
Link to online map service
Contact the police to get your

phone back or remote control the
phone to protect your data.
Send SMS Commands to the Phone

Get the current location of your phone: If the phone has GPS built in and GPS data is available it will send
you its GPS coordinates. The updates also can be configured to be sent continuously.

Lock the phone: The device will not be usable by the thief anymore as the screen will be blocked by
Theft Aware. This option can also be set to be enabled automatically upon SIM card change.
Activate a loud siren sound: The phone will start to emit a loud siren sound that can only be turned off
again by an authorized user. You are even able to customize the siren sound by specifying own sound
files or by recording a customized siren sound.
Wipe the phone and erase all private data stored on it: Format the phone AND all memory cards to keep
your private data confidential.
Back up all your contacts: Before you wipe the phone you can backup your contacts, they will be
transmitted via SMS to the other device.
Back up SMS that are important to you: Just tell Theft Aware which SMS you want to rescue, they will be
forwarded to the other device.
Let the phone call you or other phone numbers: Your phone is able to phone independently upon SMS
command. The calls will be hidden as good as possible. This enables you to listen to what happens at the
other side of the line without anybody recognizing it.
Query Call or SMS protocol data: By sending a simple SMS command you can query call or SMS protocols
on the target phone.
Change Theft Aware settings: most of the settings of Theft Aware can be changed by SMS.
Remote command plugin interface: Implement your own SMS commands.
Stealth Mode
After theft, thiefs usually check the mobile phone for applications that could unveil their identity. Thiefs
will look for application icons, and will check the application manager as well as the application log. If
the thief is able to find suspicious traces it is very likely that the phone will be turned off and will be
subject to disposal. This usually results in the phone being lost forever.
All of the anti theft solution providers tried to solve this problem. But with their solutions it is either not
possible to change the tools configuration (e.g. uninstall is not possible) or the tool provides visible
traces to a thief causing all the consequences lined out above.
We cooperated with the device manufacturers and managed to create the perfect solution. Theft Aware
is also the only solution in the marketplace that will be completely invisible on the phone, in order to
give you the best chances to either catch the thief or get your device back.

Get Theft Aware 2.00

DOWNLOAD AND/OR PURCHASE THEFT AWARE
Theft Aware is available either via our website http://www.theftaware.com or via Nokias OVI store.
Theft Aware Trial
Note that at our website we also offer a trial version of Theft Aware that is not available at OVI store.
INSTALLATION PROCESS
After launching the installer process, it is straight forward to install Theft Aware. Please carefully read all
the texts provided during the installer process as they contain important information.
Important Hint
Once installed, Theft Aware will create two entries in the installed application list, one entry is called
Theft Aware and one is called Theft Aware Launcher.
Figure 2: Application List Entries
Always deinstall Theft Aware by deinstalling the Theft Aware package. This will automatically also
deinstall the Theft Aware Launcher package.
LAUNCH THEFT AWARE

Congratulations! At this point in time you got Theft Aware 2.00 successfully installed on your mobile
phone. Now, launch the Theft Aware program from within the application menu of your phone.
Figure 3: Theft Aware Icon

Use Theft Aware 2.00

NAVIGATE THE INTERFACES
To switch to the different Theft Aware interfaces, use the left and right keys. On touch phones tap the
tab arrows visible in the upper part of the screen. You can also use the Options Go to menu to access
the different interfaces that Theft Aware offers.
SETTINGS INTERFACE
When starting Theft Aware, the Settings Interface will be the first thing youll see. In order to setup
Theft Aware for active use you will have to specify the Theft Aware settings.
System
By using this option you can enable or disable the Theft Aware protection system. Note that no SMS
commands nor any theft protection will work if the system is disabled. Once the Theft Aware
protection is enabled, Theft Aware will be put to Stealth Mode automatically. In Stealth Mode Theft
Aware is completely invisible to any thief. If you disable the system Theft Aware will be switched to
Visible Mode again. Then Theft Aware can also be removed from the phone as usual.
BASIC SETTINGS
To setup Theft Aware for active use you HAVE TO specify the Theft Aware basic settings:
Owner
Please enter your name here.
Access Code
Enter your access code here. This access code is used to authorize access to the Theft Aware
configuration interface. Please do NOT forget your access code. You will not be able to reconfigure
Theft Aware without the access code. The standard access code is 0000. You have to change the access
code before you are allowed to activate the Theft Aware system.
Notification 1
Please enter an international phone number here. This could be the mobile number of one of your
friends. Any Theft Aware SMS will be sent to that phone number.
ADVANCED SETTINGS
The advanced settings are already optimally preconfigured and MAY be changed on demand:

Notification 2
You may enter a second phone number here. Copies of all Theft Aware SMS will be sent to that phone
number for safety.
Allow SMS Commands
Theft Aware enables you to remotely control the phone by using SMS commands. You can disable the
feature here. If you set the value to From Notification Numbers, SMS commands will only be accepted if
they are sent from one of the notification numbers given above. The option From All Numbers lifts that
restriction.
Phone Lock Behaviour
If this option is set to SIM Change, SMS Command the phone will be locked automatically upon SIM card
change or by SMS command. If the option is set to Only upon SMS Command, the phone can only be
locked by SMS command. The phone can also be unlocked by entering a valid access code in the lock
screen. The phone can ALWAYS be unlocked by restarting the phone using the original SIM card again
and entering a valid PIN code. You can also unlock the phone by entering the valid access code when the
lock screen is active.
Custom Lock Text
You may enter a custom text here, that will be shown on the screen if the phone is locked. If you give no
text here, a standard text will be shown.
Siren When Locked
If this option is enabled, every time the phone is locked a loud siren alarm sound will be played. The
siren sound will only stop if the phone is unlocked again. There is also a SMS command to start/stop the
siren.
Siren Sound
Theft Aware enables you to customize your siren sound. The option Select Sound File lets you select a
sound file from your phone. Also you can record a new sound sample by using the option Record Siren
Sound. Use the Play Siren Sound option to listen to the currently active siren. Use the Reset To Default
option to reset the siren sound to the original one delivered with Theft Aware.
Send Contacts As
Theft Aware enables you to send contacts from your phone to another one. Theft Aware is able to send
those contacts as Business Card or as standard text SMS. However, not all phones are able to handle the
Business Card format, thus they will not be able to receive the message. If your notification partner's
phone is not able to receive Business Card messages, set this option to Text SMS.

SMS Map Type

The Theft Aware notification SMS contains a link to view the location of your phone by using online map
services. This option lets you choose which online map service you want to use (Theft Aware, Google
Maps, Yahoo! Maps, Microsoft Bing Maps). Theft Aware Maps is new in 2.0 those maps links will
forward you to our servers for advanced mapping functionality (e.g. the link will also work on mobile
phones and provide cell ID position tracking if no GPS data was available).
Gps Query Timeout
Here you can set the timeout in minutes after which GPS location requests will be cancelled
automatically. Be careful when giving an unlimited timeout as then Theft Aware would potentially try
to get GPS location data forever.
Tracking on SIM Change
Continuous GPS tracking can be activated automatically once an unauthorized SIM is used in the phone.
Set the time interval for the updates here.
SMS on Low Battery
Set this option to Always to always receive notification SMS once the battery state of the phone is low.
Use Upon SIM Card Change to get those SMS only if an unknown SIM is present in the phone. A
notification means that the phone probably will go offline soon.

HELP INTERFACE
The help system also contains information about the system state:

Indicates if Internet Remote Control was configured correctly. For more details on
that check https://internet.theftaware.com
SAVE THE SETTINGS

Once you configured all the settings you need to save them. When quitting the program you will be
asked if you want to save the settings. You can also use the Options Save command to perform the
save action without quitting the application.
When saving the settings, Theft Aware will check if the Theft Aware protection system was disabled or
enabled. If it was enabled, Theft Aware will switch itself to Stealth Mode, if it was disabled, Theft Aware
will switch itself to Visible Mode. Note that the switch between the modes can take up to 30 seconds.
Stealth Mode
Stealth Mode is for sure the coolest feature in Theft Aware. No other company in the world is able to
provide this feature to you at this point in time.
Why is Stealth Mode Necessary?
After theft, thiefs usually check the mobile phone for applications that could unveil their identity. Thiefs
will look for application icons, and will check the application manager as well as the application log. If
the thief is able to find suspicious traces it is very likely that the phone will be turned off and will be
subject to disposal. This usually results in the phone being lost forever.

We cooperated with the device manufacturers and managed to create the perfect solution. Theft Aware
is also the only solution in the marketplace that will be completely invisible on the phone, in order to
give you the best chances to either catch the thief or get your device back.
Figure 4: Invisible In
Application Menu
Installed Applications List
Installation Protocol
Visible Mode
Why is Visible Mode Necessary?
We already described why Stealth Mode is necessary. But why the heck do we think you would need the
Visible Mode as well?
As you see above, there is no installed application entry visible on the phone in Stealth Mode. This
prevents you from uninstalling Theft Aware when you want to do that. This is the reason why Theft
Aware switches itself back to Visible Mode if you disable the theft protection. Then you can simply
uninstall the product again.
Figure 7: Visible In
Application Menu
Figure 8: Visible In
Installed Applications List
Access Configuration in Stealth Mode

In Stealth Mode it is not possible to start Theft Aware in the usual way because Theft Aware is invisible.
This brings up the next innovation that Theft Aware offer: the Theft Aware configuration interface can
12
be started by CALLING the ACCESS CODE. If your access code is set to 2222, just make a CALL to 2222.
The call will be cancelled immediately without any cost to you and the Theft Aware configuration
interface will start up within a few seconds.
Figure 9:
Typing 2222
Figure 10: The Phone

Is Calling
Theft Aware also takes care that no trace of the dialed access code is left in the phones call logs by
removing that call log entries immediately after the dialing process.
Accept Another SIM Card
By default, Theft Aware sends theft notification SMS as soon as your trusted SIM card is removed from
the phone and another one is inserted instead. However, from version 2.0 on you can trust more than
one SIM card. The currently inserted SIM card will be accepted every time you access and quit your
Theft Aware configuration interface.
To adjust Theft Aware to trust new SIM cards perform the following:
-
turn off the Theft Aware auto-lock feature if it is activated

turn off the phone
remove the old SIM card
insert the new SIM card
turn the phone on again
start the Theft Aware user interface
quit the Theft Aware user interface
At this point in time on Theft Aware will add the currently inserted SIM card to the trusted SIM card list.
LICENSING THEFT AWARE

THEFT AWARE 2.00 SMS COMMANDS

Theft Aware can be remotely controlled by using simple SMS commands. For this, the System and Allow
SMS Commands properties in the Settings Interface need to be enabled. Please refer to chapter Settings
Interface for details on that.
If the option Allow SMS Commands is set to From Notification Numbers, SMS commands are only
accepted if their sender phone number that matches one of the notification numbers configured. All
SMS commands sent from other numbers are ignored. Please refer to chapter Settings Interface for
details on that.
An properly authorized remote SMS command will not cause any ring tone, signal, ambient light
activation or other indication of SMS arrival on the target phone. Also the SMS will not be visible in the
SMS inbox of the target phone. SMS replies sent back to you by Theft Aware also will not cause any
attention when being sent and are not stored in the SMS outbox of the target phone.
Remote Command Authorization
All SMS commands must begin with your Theft Aware access code. For example, if the access code is set
to 2222, a lock command should look like this:

Implement Own Remote Commands

Theft Aware is able to launch any programs on the phone and pass arguments to the launched program
via command line. The program file has to be located in the directory C:\sys\bin.
SMS command: <NAME OF EXE FILE WITHOUT EXE EXTENSION> <ARGUMENTS>
Sample: 2222 MY_FILE Test will start C:\sys\bin\MY_FILE.exe and pass the phone number of the
caller plus Test as command line (eg. +436601222222 Test).
There is also an SDK package available that enables you to use several data and service interfaces of
Theft Aware. Apply for the SDK package by contacting reinhard@itagents.at.
Have fun publishing apps based on this. Tell us and we will promote it for you! Suggestions for
enhancing the interface go to reinhard@itagents.at.

USE THEFT AWARE ADVANCED OPTIONS

The Theft Aware advanced options offer some special options to enable/disable the Theft Aware
autostart feature and to do some diagnostic tests.
You can access the Theft Aware advanced options menu at Options Advanced.
Disable and Enable Autostart
Only available in Visible Mode. Disabling the Theft Aware autostart feature is NOT RECOMMENDED.
To disable or enable the Theft Aware autostart feature, use the Disable Autostart or Enable Autostart
menu entry. If autostart is disabled, no theft protection is available at all.
Send Test SMS
This will test if the SMS sending facility on the phone is working correctly. It will send invisible test SMS
to all given notification numbers.
Simulate Theft Event
This will simulate a theft event. This means that if everything works correctly, Theft Aware will send
theft notifications to all given notification numbers. This can take some time as during that operation
Theft Aware will also query GPS location data.
Simulate Lock
This will simulate the LOCK SMS command. Note: On success this will lock the phone for 10 seconds.
Open or Delete Server Log File
This option is used for support diagnostics. Here you can show or delete the current log messages of the
