well... apparently, In 1972 a crack commando unit was sent to prison by a military court for a crime they didn't commit. These men promptly escaped from a maximum security stockade to the Los Angeles underground. Today, still wanted by the government, they survive as soldiers of fortune. If you have a problem, if no one else can help, and if you can find them, maybe you can hire the A-Team.


Otherwise, you can try android device manager... https://www.google.com/android/find but obviously this can't interact with your device until it is powered up.

Thanks. Do you know if it will erase once the power comes up? Or, I mean will it kinda 'buffer' around until someone turns on the power and it slides right in there to delete? Or, am I expecting too much from Godoogle?

It might... fingers crossed...

I think Samsung offer a similar feature (i don't have a current Samsung device so i'm not sure..) so you could try that as well... (again i don't know if you needed to enable it in advance)

Maybe it's smarter to contact Chuck Norris directly.

Device Manager is a good option, but if your phone has a SD card, there might be a problem. I remember that the previous Android doesn't erase the SD card, just the phone's internal memory.
