phone turned off

[korenkoren]

What's the matter of this app if it doesn't work on the phone while it turned off?
I can't even mark the phone as lost while the phone turned off.

And how do you expect software to work if a pc/phone is not on?

[korenkoren]

and what about airplane mode?
I have to wait till someone changes the sim card?

[Eddy]

Airplane mode is not the same as turned off.
It disables certain things like sound.
If a phone really is turned of no software (not even the os) will be running.
Software can only run if the system/device is on.

Have you checked on my.avast.com ?

I tried locate, message, lock while at airplane mode
and all the commands "Command timed out"

Of course it would as airplane mode disables all connection methods so it doesn't interfere with the planes electronics ( wifi, 3g, 4g should all be disabled when in airplane mode )

OK,  last question.
If someone wipe my phone while on airplane mode
The anti theft still will have root permission after the wipe?
