Like we have Samsung Dive application for Galaxy devices, do we have any way to track and control lost Xperia Z phones or any Sony phone online through PC.
Thank you.

Hi anjath
I use Kasperky mobile security, you can lock, wipe, locate, and even take a mug shot of who's using your phone, got a free copy with the desktop version, bargain!

I use Cerberus, it's been reviewed by Xda as the best security app, you can a bunch of stuff, even via text message if you don't have Internet

Didn't get it with my unbranded one. It's still provided as beta version in Scandinavia. But here on XDA the apk is available and you can use it in every region.
Installed it today. You can locate your phone, lock it with a four digit pin and a note for the person who found your phone and use an alarm to find it.

In case some people wonder, it's possible to delete a map, although there is no such option in the settings
if you want to delete a map you wrongly downloaded, go to /sdcard/android/data/com.navfree.android.osm.all/files/userdata/maps and delete the maps folder you don't need.

If you have a 2012 or 2013 Xperia device you will be able to activate My Xperia from your phone’s settings. Once it’s enabled, a visit to the My Xperia site will let you sound alerts, find your phone on a map, lock it down, and erase internal and external storage. It’s surprising that three years after Find my iPhone there’s still no Google location service distributed with Android, but Xperia owners out there will no doubt be happy about having a first-party way to track down their phones.

then just go to myxperia site, login and it will automatically show your phones location
It's a good idea but, there're many difficulties in tracking the lost phone, especially a phone using Android, actually! 'Coz flashing a rom is as easy as turning off a light! :laugh:
P/S: However I've installed and activated this service, just like an interesting thing of technology!
Ah so its not here by default.
... And about locking phone really? Just flash it with newphone. Problem solved.

Here in Norway we get the Smartband SWR10 when buying Z2, with every provider as far as I've seen. But we can also buy it seperatly for 100 dollars.
Ask for the apk in Android General thread. Its one of the most popular threads on XDA. There are tons of restricted apks there. The rule is, free only, per XDA rules.

Do you know how it tracks you movement? How does it know you drive/walk/run? I get the walk/run because you run faster, but if you're stuck in traffic it might think you are walking..

My smartband wont be here until Friday so I can't be certain but if it's similar to other sensors it depends on motion. Driving will sometimes show up as steps but it's reasonably accurate. If I set the car to firm suspension I get a lot more steps!
