What can I do if phone is offline on Find my IPhone?

[iMore Question]

Other that Play sounds, Erase my IPhone or go into Lost mode, is there anything else I can do? I desperately need my phone back!

Is it Lost? Or Stolen? If you haven't - contact your service provider and get the device listed as lost/stolen with them... report to police where you had it lost/stolen... then use the Find My iPhone and do what you can... set it to notify you when it comes on-line...
