Remote lock android from PC

[RobotLizard]

My friend keeps stealing my phone and sending people messages and generally being annoying, so I was wondering if there's any way I can use a PC to remotely lock my phone? Maybe some sort of app that links to the PC?
Thanks

Why not change the lock code on the phone so your friend can't use it?

seriously? just setup a PIN on your phone or stop letting them use it. if this is what your friend is doing with your phone imagine what would happen if you lost it and someone else find your phone.

What a surprise, a INSULT REMOVED BY MODERATOR. I knew someone would post this. Clearly I have tried that because I'm not a moron. He steals the phone while I';m on it so its unlocked, then runs away and I can get it off him.
Maybe in future you could answer the question and if you don't know then dont bother answering

How about this, lose the attitude and respond respectfully to people who try and help you or ask questions. Otherwise you will be asking your questions elsewhere.

The only option here is to secure the phone, to prevent this kind of thing. And, maybe get a new friend.

Not really much a friend for someone to do this. Good luck.

Insulting someone trying to help? You are the person allowing this to happen. Pot, meet kettle. LOL.

I think you're going about this the wrong way. From a pet training standpoint, you're trying to mitigate the consequences of the bad behavior, instead of stopping the bad behavior.

1. Buy broken version of your model phone off eBay for $5.
2. Rig it so it'll fall apart when dropped.
3. Pull it out of your pocket as if you're going to send a text.
4. When your "friend" goes to grab it, pretend to fight him for it, and allow it to drop to the ground.
5. Pick up the broken phone off the ground, and proceed to go ape s#!t. Rant about how he always does this, and it was just a matter of time before an accident like this happened.
6. (Optional) Guilt your friend into buying you a new phone.

That being the case, I would agree with the other posters here. Tell your friend to quit being a jerk and leave your phone alone or his friendship services will no longer be required.

As for what you're looking for, there is (as a surprise to me) apparently an app that allows you just what you're looking for. A quick Google search for "remote to android phone" shows this AirDroid as a possible solution.

Edit: There are also ISL Light (ISL Online) and TeamViewer which can apparently allow you to control your android device from a PC.
