misHaps: Provide Info To Your Lost Phone’s Finder To Help Him/Her To Return It [Android 2.2+]

Have you ever found somebody’s lost smartphone? If you have, then you are already aware of how problematic it can be to return the phone. Because of the auto-lock feature in nearly every phone that is protected by a password, you cannot access the phonebook. If you could access the phonebook, then you could try contacting people and learn who the phone belonged to which would make it easier to return it.
