I’m running Graphene on a Pixel 6. I lost it and someone opened it somehow and called two of my contacts to give it back.

I’m a bit confused how this even happened. When I got the phone back, they were going through my contacts. I checked app usage stats and they went through a banking app (not missing money), maps, signal, etc.

Is there a way to figure out how they even unlocked my phone?

    No, it isn’t. I’ve used many Android phones over the years and none have ever defaulted to storing contacts on the SIM. SIM storage is very rudimentary, and you’d have to go out of your way to make use of it.

      True , however most people do not use a pin for sim. And if you have the access a lot of info can be gain from a simcard. And even if you ain’t got access to network, any incoming traffic will go to you.
