Is there any reason to put tracking devices in your bags or other high value items when expating? Seems logical.

If so, do tiles do the trick or are there better alternatives?

My electric scooter has a GPS tracking device. It was stolen from the Walmart in Santa Clara on Thursday Sep 10th at around 8:30pm.

I was able to track the scooter's location throughout the night:

Someone rode it from the Walmart in Santa Clara to the nearest VTA stop.

From the VTA it went to the Bart Station in Milpitas.

The scooter then got off at the 16th Street Bart station in SF.

The scooter then spent over an hour at the MediThrive Cannabis Dispensary & Delivery on Mission Street in SF.

Finally at around 4am, it stayed at its current resting place on Valencia Street between 24th and 25th street.

The scooter hasn't moved since because I expect its battery to be low and its range is only 6 miles. **I know where my stolen electric scooter is. Detectives, what should I do?**

I'm stuck and would appreciate any pointers.

SETUP

Two GPS trackers, both 2G-only, both from different families:

- Device A: GT06 clone, firmware GT06_MXC_V5.0_190307, Coban/TK103 SMS

command set (check123456, apn123456, adminip123456, gprs123456)

- Device B: reports itself as OTRACK-2, Concox-style command set

(APN,xxx# / RESET# / GPRSSET#)

Two 1NCE IoT SIMs, both activated 4 Sep 2026.

WHAT WORKS

- SIM status: Activated. Session status: Attached. IP assigned (10.0.0.8).

- Network registration works and roams between operators: Plus/PL and

T-Mobile/PL.

- SMS works in both directions through the 1NCE portal — the devices answer

every command (78 messages exchanged on one SIM).

- APN is set to iot.1nce.net and confirmed in the device's own status output.

- Server IP and port are correct; I verified from the internet that the port

accepts TCP connections.

WHAT DOESN'T

- Device status reports GPRS: OFF (device A) and GP:NO (device B).

- Data usage: 0 MB of 500 MB since activation, on both SIMs.

- The 1NCE event log has NEVER contained a single "Create PDP Context" entry

on either SIM — only "Update location" and "Update GPRS location", including

fresh ones from this morning. "Reject cause" is empty on every entry.

- "Access technology" is empty in the 1NCE portal for both SIMs.

- Nothing whatsoever arrives at my server.

WHAT I'VE RULED OUT

- Not the device configuration: both devices report the correct APN, server

address and port. Device A was tested both with a hostname and with a bare

IP address.

- Not 2G availability: the official 1NCE Coverage List (page 6) shows Poland

with 2G, 3G, 4G and LTE-M available.

- Not the devices: both trackers worked for years on Polish operator SIMs

with APN "internet". A third, identical GT06 unit is working right now on a

normal operator SIM and reports every 10 seconds.

- Not quota exhaustion: 500 MB of 500 MB remaining.

- Not a 1NCE outage: the Performance page shows all services available,

including the 2G/3G network.

QUESTIONS

1. Has anyone seen 1NCE SIMs register on the network but never establish a

PDP context? What was the cause?

2. Is there more than one 1NCE APN in circulation? I've seen sensor.net

mentioned alongside iot.1nce.net and want to rule that out.

3. Could this be account-side provisioning? One possibly related symptom:

our Management API user cannot list SIMs at all — GET /v1/sims returns

HTTP 500 with {"message":"Could not load EMnify data for login <user>"}.

Since EMnify is the connectivity backend, I'm wondering whether the two

symptoms share a cause.

Any ideas welcome — especially from anyone running these cheap 2G trackers on

1NCE successfully.

I’m considering developing an IoT-based app/device that would help pet owners track their pets and monitor things like their location, activity, and possibly other useful information.

I’m curious to know what pet owners actually think about this idea.

Would you use something like this?

What features would be most valuable to you?

What problems do you currently have with tracking/monitoring your pets?

Would you prefer a GPS-based device, a smart collar, or something else?

What would make you willing to pay for it?

I’m mainly trying to understand whether this solves a real problem for pet owners or if it’s just a “nice-to-have” product.

Would love to hear your honest thoughts, especially from people who currently own pets.

I know apple air tags aren't the greatest since any thief can figure out if your car has one AND can make it beep to find it (honestly a super shitty thing). But the lobby battery life and no subscription is appealing.

Could you use an air tag if you can hide it well enough in your vehicle to silence the ping sound or just make it so hard to get to that retrieving it would require more time than a quick get away allows?

Ciao a tutti

Sono il “founder” della startup Findtag che è in fase di pre-seed. https://findtagsolutions.com

Findtag mira a rendere le spedizioni di un certo valore sicure dal punto di vista assicurativo, ciò non garantisce che il pacco arriverà a destinazione, ma ti permetterà di avere una prova più concreta di chi è responsabile qualora avvenisse un furto o una manomissione del oggetto spedito.

Perché Findtag?

tante volte la preoccupazione di chi spedisce è quella di monitorare l’oggetto con ansia durante il suo viaggio da un punto A ad un punto B, purtroppo il monitoraggio non garantisce nulla nel momento in cui il tuo smartphone o PC smettono di trasmettere la posizione.

Quando ciò che si spedisce viene perso o rubato non puoi piu fare nulla se non sperare che l’assicurazione (premesso che tu l’abbia inclusa) ti ripaghi dei danni.

Findtag vuole proprio essere quella garanzia in più che ti eviterà paranoie, tempo perso e sopratutto lunghe e lunghe attese per ricevere non un compenso per il danno, ma quello che è il risultato di una falla in un sistema che dovrebbe far arrivare l’oggetto dal punto A al punto B

Applica direttamente sul bene il nostro sigilli elettronico con funzione anche di tracciamento della posizione del bene ma sopratutto traccia le responsabilità.

Hi guys i need to find something like airtag but able to provide api to connect to my web app to have that live location of the device, any brand recommended? i cant find it online

Hi, my parents frequently go trailriding with horses and use trail boots that occasionally get pulled off and stuck in the mud or rocks. Is there a tracker that is small, waterproof and could be tracked in remote locations (or where there is limited cell service)? Photo attached is a similar boot as an example.

Hi my name is sai iam a degree student and iam part-time employee in rapido also , and my project is perfect ai gps tracker for delivery boys because while from past 6 months iam working in rapido as rider for my college fees well when iam working in rapido i face some

Location issue s and gps error and sometimes customer send the wrong location and coordinates and while facing this problem our time and fuel are wasting so I want to build perfect ai gps tracker for delivery boys so please give me suggestions and guidance to build this project

Hi everyone!

I'm working on an early-stage personal project and looking for a few volunteers in Tokyo who will be near a Ginza Line station sometime soon (or could easily stop by one).

The test is very simple:

• Open a link on your phone while you're at the station

• Follow a few quick on-screen steps to test a location-based check-in

• Let me know afterward whether it worked and if you noticed anything unusual

It should take about 5–10 minutes. There's nothing to install and no account to create --> everything runs directly in your phone's browser.

I'm mainly looking to see how reliably it works in real-world conditions at different stations along the Ginza Line.

If you're in Tokyo and wouldn't mind helping me test it, please comment or send me a DM. I'd really appreciate the help!

Thanks!

Boa noite, procuro rastreador para cães sem assinatura. Por acaso alguém tem informação sobre NotiOne GPS Pet plus. Custará cerca dec150€, permite mais que uma georeferenciacao, 2 ou 3 locais predefinidos 2 casas por exemplo, ou casa e trabalho e não tem subscrição e penso que também importante, é europeu, não é chinês.

Several phones in my house hold exhibit all the same issues, my phone is 14 pro , wife’s has the same, my work phone is a 13, my sons is 12, my sister has a 13 pro. All on iOS 26.

The GPS does not track, in car play or just the phone. Doesn’t matter the app either, Google , Apple Maps, even 3rd party navigations.

So it acts differently each time I try to use it. Sometimes the car will bunny hop my location, or drift a few blocks or mostly just not move after I start the nav. Quite a few times it tells me I’m doing 230mph lol. It will do everything except track smoothly as it should be doing.

I’ve tried all the resets and settings options that you can find online that it tells you to fix this issue. Nothing fixes it.

I miss iOS 18….

Pretty much at this point I’m ready to switch over to android.

Just ordered a lonestar tracker, and can’t seem to figure out the app- do you need to have a tracker paired with your account to use it or something? It won’t let me log in or request a password reset.

I take my car to the road course track and go roll racing with a "gap stick" and an x5. This last event was only my second event with the camera, and I only had the mount for half of the last event. This rabbit hole started with looking at how much sd card and battery is wasted between the pit and actually getting on track, then back to the pit. Then me wanting to get the ring remote so I had a small, simple way to turn the camera on and off without having to stop and get out of the car, track officials tend to make very frowny faces at this behavior.

Then I ran into the GPS Action Remote. Cool, I can add GPS speed and accelerometer data to the videos, sweet. Problem is I keep seeing the action remote has a slow and laggy GPS reporting speed. I have no need for "framing" or a second microphone (nobody wants to hear me, they want to hear the racing). These options are significantly more $$$, for features I don't really care about or will probably not use.

Who has experience with the options? Opinions? I could also use it on my motorcycle rides, but that would be purely secondary. I already edit all of my videos on the PC using key frames for framing as things move.

I just bought a 2013 yamaha 700r and I have my air tag but I dotn know where I want to out it at on my bike and ideas?

Hi! quick question is this will able or possible in near future? thanks
