I just learned something useful.  If you misplace your Android phone, log into 
the Google Play Store from a web browser, and go to Settings / Android Device 
Manager, and select the proper device if you have more than one associated with 
your account.  It will display the approximate location of the phone, based on 
its GPS.  Then, click Ring.  This will make the ringtone sound at maximum 
volume for five minutes, even if the phone was set to Vibrate or Silent Mode.  
Once you find the phone, press its power button to stop the ring tone.  This is 
more useful than simply calling the phone, which only sounds the ringtone until 
it rolls over to voice mail.
