“On qq, it shows when your phone is on.”
So what would cause QQ to show these smartphones as being on and online for three days after the crash? Can anyone explain that one to me?
Maybe Jonah’s whale popped up, ate them, and then spit them out on land near a cellphone tower?
Bueller?... Bueller?... Bueller?

Let me try this one more time: The only way the phone system can know the phone has been turned off is if the phone tells the system that it is being turned off. If the phone dies or is destroyed it never tells the system it is off. So the system believes the phone is still on. After some default period of never connecting with the phone, the swystem may decide to consider the phone “off”, likely after several days of no contact with the phone.
If a working, powered, cell phone were near a tower, the cell phone company could determine exactly which tower it was nearest to, and deduce a very small area where the phone was.
