Damaged screen... how to disable anti-theft?

Hello!

The screen of my brand new Galaxy S5 is damaged. Nothing is displayed, not even on boot, screen is black all the time.
However the phone seems to work since I hear the boot sounds.
I need to take it to service so they can replace my screen but that means taking the SIM card out… and the phone starts screaming “this phone has been lost or stolen” :slight_smile:

What to do?

If you log into your avast account (my.avast.com) you can check how to send a SMS with commands to the phone?
Or, I know but, can’t you send the phone with the card on it to be repaired?

I need my SIM card in my backup phone so people can contact me… I don’t understand your point…

Do you have remote control enabled ?
