@ AlexV12:

Sorry for that, must indeed be apt-get install ...
and one install of pexpect is enough . I corrected my first post...

Are the two scripts in /usr/bin and have the right permissions?
And did you install the Python packages?


"...
it is a nice idea though to trigger that via sms, but you'd have to be sure that the thief still has your simcard in the phone, otherwise it won't work"

--> smscon detects a SIM change at boot and then sends you the new provider name, new IMSI and new phonenumber. With this number you can SMS & control your phone again.
