yes it can
All phones can be tracked.
YeS it can be tracked unless if your phone is encrypted
Nope - every mobile phone can be tracked by its network ! The network needs to know its physical location - in order to route calls to it !
Yes but only by the phone company that you have.
No way to really know, if you think you are then you can shortcircuit the chip in your phone.
If the phone is in her name she can activate a GPS device to trace the whereabouts of the phone when it is turned on. Most carriers will however send a text message that states the phone is being tracked. There is a setting that you can go to- GPS or 911 or emergency only. Emergency only should be selected if you do not want to be tracked. You can turn the phone off - no need to take out battery- and you cannot be tracked.
No it can not. Even if there is no battery left and it needs to be charged, it still can't be tracked. Without the battery, the phone's nothing. It's just a piece of plastic.
If you have a "stolen" phone, then return it or mail it back to the owner.
If you have a cell phone that is turned on you can always be tracked to the nearest cell tower. This is necessary for the system to work, so that you can make and receive calls.If the GPS in the cell phone is enabled and you are outside (so it can lock to the satellites) you can be tracked to about 10 feet.The only way to be certain that you cannot be tracked through your cell phone is to always keep it turned off except when you want to make a call or check voicemail. Of course everyone will have to leave messages on your voicemail when they try to call you. Everytime you turn the phone on to make a call or check voicemail you will be located and tracked until you turn the cell phone off again.Perhaps you should forget cell phones and only use a landline phone with an answering machine.
The police can can track you if you have a cell phone on you if they have a warrant to do so. If someone else else does it, then it will be illegal.
Care must be taken at all times to safeguard your personal information. These days, this includes your cell phone. This is not true only of data entered into the phone, but data generated by the phone. Anyone with access for only a few minutes can sign the phone up for a service which will allow it to be tracked. It even allows audio and video access without your knowledge; there is no evidence to the owner of the phone.
