Best Answer

A lost cell phone that is turned off could be found by using certain phone applications that have been created for use in this particular situation. Another option is to back track to the places that you may have been to when you had the cell phone.

You need to think where you last put it. If you were out and about it might be in your car, in your house or anywhere, and if you are sure that it isn't in your car/house and its lost somewhere else, then you are going to need to search everywhere that you were and ask people if they found a phone and tell them the type. If it is at home, where do you normally put it? I'm the kind of person that will set my phone (and all other important stuff) down somewhere and forget where I put it. Think of all the places where it COULD be, and then search those. If you can't find it, then sit down and think of places where you don't normally put it and search there and anywhere. Phones are small so they are obviously hard to find, so this can get frustrating (I've found my phone in my sock drawer before...). Search everywhere where a phone could be (yes, check the freezer. it's happened to me before.), and if you lose it a lot have a specific place to set it, maybe near its charger or on a desk where it wont get buried.

It is very difficult as you cannot ring it to find it. Good luck!

sometimes phones come with a tracking device like wheres my droid..... you text that from another phone to your phone and your missing phone will ring but only some phones have that

Unless you have a device where it turns your phone on when you ring until the voice mail comes on you will not find your cell phone.
