How does Android Device Manager work?

[Sakimi]

I lost my tablet and I was wondering if my tablet will still register under my Android Device Manager if it has been jail broken or factory reset? Right now, it is still in my Android Device Manager and says that it was last online the day that I lost it.

Your only options are what Android Device Manager shows you on the screen. If it has been factory reset, then it's ready for somebody else to sign in with a different google account. Best remaining option is to call your carrier and report it lost or stolen and they can deactivate it based in its IMEI.
Your Google account still may show it because it used to be the phone associated with the account. I pulled my SIM card out a phone, wiped, factory reset and sold it months ago, but the settings in my Google Play account still show it.
