Maybe I should attach it to myself on a belt. I will give it a week and then I will go buy another phone.

Some phones have a feature that will turn them on if you have an alarm set so that it can go off even if you have turned the phone off. Set an alarm for daily at a time when you would usually be home, then listen for it.

Some phones can also be turned on remotely. Most Nokia models can do this, and it's becoming more common. I've heard Iphones can be turned on remotely, but not sure. Anyway, call your service provider and ask them if they can, they might even tell you the truth and turn the phone on and call it.

Leave it turned on and plugged into the charger.......why over complicate something.

Shouldnt turn your cell phone off Modeeb. I never leave my cellphone lying around. Its either on me or in three places. I get very few calls but my cellphone is expensive like a little computer

You are old enough to have learned personal organization.

I have distinct places for my wallet, cell phone, keys, armament, etc.

That's the only place they get put when at home.


Make it so!

I just found it under the seat of my truck. I will now use all my skills as a gamer to create a new strategy for never losing again.

I have a wooden bowl on my nightstand that I put my keys, wallet, and other things. My cellphone will either be in my coat pocket at home if I forgot to take it out and plug it in or plugged in the USB cable on my computer desk or plugged in on my nightstand near my bed

I find that since I get so tired during the week if I do things the same way every time that I wont make mistake. I do the same thing every day when I shut my truck down and get home and I do the same thing every morning. This ritual prevents mistakes and allows me to operate when purely exhausted. I think the military operate the same way
