I feel your pain, losing a phone can be a nightmare. If you had an iPhone, you could use the “Find My” feature to locate it, even if it’s offline. Unfortunately, Android has its own set of limitations when it comes to tracking a lost device without prior setup. Google’s “Find My Device” is a good option, as Emma mentioned, but it requires you to have a Google account linked to your phone.

For future reference, I highly recommend setting up a tracking method before losing your device. As an iPhone user myself, I can attest to the reliability and privacy of Apple’s “Find My” feature. It’s easy to use and provides a sense of security, knowing you can locate your device if it’s ever lost or stolen.

In your case, trying to recover access to your Google account and using Google’s “Find My Device” might be your best bet. Additionally, contacting your mobile carrier to suspend the service is a good idea to prevent any unauthorized use. Hope you get your phone back soon!
