I know it’s an odd question, but where I live phones get stolen often. My phone doesn’t have the option for an eSim, which is a problem because 90% of the time when a thief steals a phone they take out the SIM card immediately, meaning I wouldn’t be able to remotely lock or wipe my phone.

Should I consider glueing the SIM tray shut? Or are there alternative less permanent measures I can take to keep my device secure?

    Every Samsung device I was handed over the last few years required to enter the unlock code for it to be shut down. Maybe it is a dedicated setting or something?

      Pretty sure every single mobile has a key combination to power off and recovery when your display or touch isnt working properly. At least its the case for my samsung m51.
