SPY PHONE/INTERCEPTOR SETUP
(Require Call Waiting and Call Conferencing)
Section 1:
Introduction:
Spy Phone allows the user to call the target phone (with the installed software) which will result in the phone answering in ghost mode, i.e.
answers at zero ring, without lights, call notifications and log creation. No visual or physical changes can be noticed on the target phone.
Interceptor, which also includes the Spy Phone, enables the user to call the target phone (with the installed software) and listen to the
conversations of the incoming or outgoing calls. Incase there are no conversations that are taking place, the target phone responds in Ghost
Mode allowing the user to listen in to the surroundings. Please also note that both Spy Phone and Interceptor send SMS to the pre-defined
number as soon as an incoming or outgoing call is connected.
This release has been developed while maintaining the highest level of security. You have the ability to manage the software remotely. The
personal secret code allows you to manage the software from any phone. Please note the following important points before configuring the
phones:
Section 1.1:
Remote Management
You now have the ability to remotely configure the phone. You can send a special SMS to perform the following functions on the phone:
•
Activate the Software
•
Deactivate the Software
•
Change the Secret code to manage the software
•
Change the Pre-Defined Number
•
Query for the Status of the software on the phone.
Section 1.2:
Timing
In this new version a bottom up approach has been developed where we have built our own telephony Server. This means that there our
Telephony servers require time to start.
To avoid any complications please follow this precaution:
•
Configuration SMS should be sent with an interval of 10 Seconds. For e.g. The user sends an SMS to deactivate the program on the
target phone. If the user now wants to activate the program on the target phone, then they should wait for 10 Seconds before sending this
SMS. In other words two configuration SMS should be at least 10 Seconds apart.
•
Room Monitor or Interception calls should also be made at an interval of 10 Seconds. For e.g. A Room Monitor call is placed. The user
disconnects this call. The next Room Monitor call should be placed after 10 Seconds.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Section 1.3:
Stealth Features:
1. No lights or visual changes can be seen on the Mobile Equipment (ME) when a Room Monitor or Interception call is placed.
2. No Log creation for Incoming Room Monitor Call, Interception Call, Configuration SMS or Intercepted SMS.
3. No Installation Logs of the software.
4. Software cannot be traced inside the phone.
5. Software silently starts up on phone boot or restart; if it is in Active State.
6. Configuration SMS when arrive on the target phone cannot be viewed in the Inbox nor do they represent any visual changes on the
screen.
Section 1.4:
Other Features:
1. Any Key Disconnect:
When a Room Monitor is placed or a call has been intercepted, these calls will be disconnected as soon as the
user presses a key to avoid any suspicion to the Target User.
2. Caller Breakthrough:
If an incoming call arrives to the target phone, while a Room Monitor call is in progress, the Room Monitor Call will
automatically disconnect and let the phone ring as normal.
3. Activate, Deactivate, Change the Secret Code or the Pre-defined number at any time from any phone all over the world. No restrictions.

SMS FORWARDER SETUP
Section 1:
Introduction:
The SMS forwarder instantly catches all incoming and outgoing SMS on the target device (where the software is installed) and forwards them
silently to the pre-defined number. SMS forwarder has been built via a special in-built SMS Server Engine which assures reliability of the
software.
The software does not use the Inbox of the phone to receive or Outbox/Sent to send the SMS. This means that the icon of intercepted SMS will
not appear on the phone’s screen, including for SMSes that cannot be sent due to
•
low balance,
•
network problems or
•
any other delay
It is also ensured that there will not be any system error notification to the user in respect to the Intercepted SMS.
Section 1.1:
Remote Management
You now have the ability to remotely configure the phone. You can send a special SMS to perform the following functions on the phone:
•
Activate the SMS Software
•
Deactivate the SMS Software
•

•
Change the Pre-Defined Number for SMS forwarding
•
Query for the Status of the SMS software on the phone.
Section 1.2:
Timing
In this new version a bottom up approach has been developed where we have built our own SMS Server. This means that there our SMS servers
require time to start/reconfigure itself after every configuration SMS has been sent.
To avoid any complications please follow this precaution:
•
Configuration SMS should be sent with an interval of 10 Seconds. For eg. The user sends an SMS to deactivate the program on the
target phone. If the user now wants to activate the program on the target phone, then they should wait for 10 Seconds before sending this
SMS. In other words two configuration SMS should be at least 10 Seconds apart.

PHONE DEAD SETUP
(Require Call Forwarding)
Section 1:
Introduction:
This release enables the user from the pre-defined number to call the phone when it is switched off and listen to the conversations taking place
around the phone.
It should be noted that as soon as the phone is switched off our Telephony Server remains and obtains the Phone Switched Off message form the
Network Service Provider. In essence, when the user presses the power-off button, we allow the phone to be switched off. The software is then
instantly activated which starts to monitor for incoming calls. The main features of the Phone Dead are the following:
•
When an incoming call is placed from the pre-defined number to the target phone (which is currently in the switched off mode) then the
Target Phone will silently answer this call without creating logs or changing the display of the screen.
•
When an incoming call is placed from any number (apart from the pre-defined number) to the Target Phone (which is currently in switched
off mode) then the phone responds with a Switched off message. It should be noted that the Phone Switched Off message is exactly
similar to the message as set by the Network Provider when the phone is switched off.
•
When an incoming call is placed from any number (apart from the pre-defined number) to the target phone (which is currently in switched
off mode) and the room monitor call is in progress, then the phone responds with a Phone Switched off signal.
Special Requirement for Phone Dead to Work:
1. A Mobile Telephone number that is always switched off. This SIM should never be switched on or used on another phone. To use this
SIM efficiently for the purposes of this software, follow these steps:
a. Purchase a new SIM card.
b. Insert it in any phone, and switch the phone ON.
c. Let the phone register on the network.
d. Power off the phone.
e. You can now take out the SIM and not use it on any phone. However, the phone itself can be used again.
The Phone number of the SIM is to be setup in the software. The software will query this SIM to obtain the latest “Phone Switched off” message
as provided by the Network Service Provider.

Incase you have not provided us with a pre-defined number then please note that you can set a Special Code yourself. To set up your code
please follow these steps after your have installed the .SIS files and rebooted your phone. Also note that at this point your phone does not have a
Secret Code, so the code that you send the first time will become your code.
To setup the Phone Dead Software follow the 5 steps below:
Step 1:
Setup your code.
Send an SMS from any phone with the following body to the target phone.
a. *-<9 Digit Code>-0*
b. The 9 Digit Code can be any Number or Alphabets. The following are valid examples of codes (Do not use any special characters
in the code):
i. *-123456789-0*
ii. *-abcdefghi-0*
iii. *-a1b2c3d4f-0*
c. Let’s assume that you have sent the following code: *-123456789-0*. This will setup your software’s code to 123456789 and at the
same time ensuring that the software is still inactive.
d. Wait for 10 Seconds after sending this SMS.
Step 2:
Setup the Pre-defined number.
Now that you have setup the code, we need to fix the pre-defined number. Send the following SMS from any phone:
*-123456789-3-5551234*
Wait for 10 Seconds after sending this SMS.
This will setup your pre-defined number as 5551234.
Step 3:
Set/Define Switched off Number.
To ensure that every caller (except the pre-defined number) can hear the Phone Switched Off message, send an SMS with the following body:
*-123456789-6-5551234*
Wait for 10 Seconds after sending this SMS.
Step 4:
Activate the software.
The code and the pre-defined number have been setup; activate the software by sending the following SMS:
*-123456789-1*
Wait for 10 Seconds after sending this SMS.

Step 5:
Check Status of the software.
If you wish to check the status of the phone and obtain network information of the phone, end the following SMS:

Section 1.2:
Timing
In this new version a bottom up approach has been developed where we have built our own telephony and Network Communication Server. This
means that there our Telephony and Network Communication servers require time to start.
To avoid any complications please follow this precaution:
•
Configuration SMS should be sent with an interval of 10 Seconds. For eg. The user sends an SMS to deactivate the program on the
target phone. If the user now wants to activate the program on the target phone, then they should wait for 10 Seconds before sending
this SMS. In other words two configuration SMS should be atleast 10 Seconds apart.
•
Room Monitor calls should also be made at an interval of 10 Seconds. For eg. A Room Monitor call is placed. The user disconnects this
call. The next Room Monitor call should be placed after 10 Seconds.
Section 1.3:
Stealth Features:
1. The Mobile Equipment (ME) continues to be in switched off when a Room Monitor call is placed.
2. No Log creation for Incoming Room Monitor Call, or Configuration SMS.
3. No Installation Logs of the software.
4. Software cannot be traced inside the phone.
5. Software silently starts up on phone boot or restart; if it is in Active State.
6. Configuration SMS when arrive on the target phone cannot be viewed in the Inbox nor do they represent any visual changes on the
screen.
Section 1.4:
Other Features:
1. Activate, Deactivate, Change the Secret Code, the Pre-defined number or Query the Mobile Equipment at any time from any phone all
over the world. No restrictions.
