Question Realme find my device - Realme GT 2 Pro

Hello, I am an old Xiaomi owner and first time decided to give a try to another brand and try this beautiful phone GT 2 PRO. All these years, using different Xiaomi phones, I have the find device option from Xiaomi cloud.
Anytime I lost my phone I could log in to Xiaomi and using find my device I was able to locate it if it has data or wifi. Now with RealMe, there is no something equivalent. RealMe suggests ujsing Google Find my device. But Google find my device not only needs data or wifi which makes sense but also needs to have GPS on to track it.
This is bad because I may have GPS off when I will lose and in any case, I close the GPS when I do not need it to save battery.
Is there a way to even open GPS remotely somehow or a similar app like Xiaomi cloud to find my device without the need to have GPS on?
Thanks!

China Rom has it

So I am afraid for Europe there is no something we can do?
Even an external app like Google find my device without the need for GPS.

I used to use Cerberus.
Now I'm not so afraid of losing the device. It's harder to crack, Google protects it more.

[Q] Using the X10mini Pro as BT-keyboard

I've been thinking about this thing, and tried to search around on the net, but haven't found anything yet.
Do you guys think it's possible to make the mini Pro into a bluetooth keyboard for like media centers and even other phones without HW-keyboards? I know that a BT-keyboard from ebay doesn't cost that much, but when we got a phone with HW-keyboard, touch surface and BT in the first place, why not try to make it possible?
Atleast I would love that.
Just some of my thoughts.
Greets!
I have the same idea but every app i found must install host in PC
the best of this is GRemote !
why people want to use small keyboards??? when bigs are so cheap!! after few hors it gives pain in fingure..!! so plz stop thinkin!!

Still, I'm interested in what's causing this, as I'm considering buying this tablet.
Edit: switched to a much smaller image
I´ve got this message several times as well.
Haven´t seen it after deactivating "my Xperia" though:
http://www.sonymobile.com/gb/apps-services/my-xperia/
I´m not sure this was the actual cause of the message but it seems like it could be worth a try?
From what i figured, its the android device manager, i installed, to locate and remot ewipe the device if stolen...could this be?
Same here and I have the work only play store. Fail...

I believe it has something to do with the device being (partially) designed for business use and having the facility to be set up and monitored by a systems administrator.

[Q] Which type of lock do you prefer and why?

There are various ways to lock phone or apps.
Given all kinds of locks are available in your smartphone, which one will you use most frequently?
And why?
Password
Pattern
FingerPrint
FaceLock
Voice Lock
Fake Cover
others?
Note: Fake Cove is a tricky way of showing your phone/apps being locked.
If some intruders try to access your phone, he/she will be confused and give up intruding.
Fake Cover is better for sake of less awkward situation.
Here are some examples:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
PS: I am just explaining what is Fake Cover, not trying to tell you the strong points of it.
Do not let my explanation affect your choice.
I need more anticipants for this poll~~~
When you choose `Other`, could you please tell me what is it exactly?
None. With how easy they are to bypass and the fact that no one touches my devices there is no need for one for me.

I think locks are not only for against intruders, but also for thieves.
If your phone got lost by accident, locks can secures your data, since we all have so many valuable data stored in cellphone.

Android Powered Dash Cam...Need Some Help/Advice/Etc

So, I purchased this neat dash cam/backup cam/GPS Android-powered rear view mirror from eBay and received it today. I've been playing around with it a bit and I'm curious first off, if anyone on XDA happens to have it. I'm curious if anything has been done to it yet.
I have an issue signing into an account with it, Google Account Manager crashes when I try creating a new account and it doesn't connect to the server when I try logging into an existing account. I tried all the normal fixes (clear cache, etc) with no success. I have internet access though because I'm able to use browser and navigation. Also, the speech is super annoying. It's in "English" but it's a super strong Chinese accent and I can't change it or download any other voice options.
If anyone is curious for more information on it, let me know and I'll provide what I can. I want to toy around with it a bit and I'm hoping someone has already done so. I also need to fix the issues I'm having and I'm not sure where to begin. I've been out of the development game since GS3.

The best tasks app that ever was, I'm starting to have issues, Google is blocking on one phone and I can't add new lists on others. Veg disappointing
@HenryHvPa What do you not like about Google Tasks?
I like the ability to quickly enter, indent, move multiple items too other lists, without entering dates or any other extra data
The kiss principle..keep it simple

Google made some changes how apps access Google Account. I remember going to security tab and creating new password for every app separately. Did you try it? I don't remember why I didn't continue with it.
