How to stop shutdown. lost stolen find location samsung s6

[Uwe Kruger]

So.... Samsung made a phone with a battery that can not be removed. It is not the best feature but it does add another feature which is overlooked. When the phone is lost or stolen the battery can not be so easily removed. This gives you more time to track and find your phone but......now that 'feature' is circumvented by simply pressing the power key and shutting the device off.

SO !
How do you prevent this ? Can you choose a setting or download an app that stops the S6 from being shut down without a password or pattern ?

Any help is much appreciated !

Welcome to AC!
I did a bit of searching and this is the best I could find. Not sure if the feature you're asking requires root though: https://forums.androidcentral.com/e...roid.lockscreenprotector&hl=en&token=O4FdV2bA

Hmm, you could possibly achieve this on a rooted phone with the xposed framework installed.

There is an article for the nexus here , you can have a read and see if you can apply it on your phone.
