Help App that tracks phone?

[RoRo1990]

What is a good app that I can download to track my phone in case I lose or someone steals my phone

I'll preface this by saying I haven't used it personally, but I have seen a lot of good things about Lookout (http://www.mylookout.com/). It can do a lot more than track your phone too, if your interested. Check it out.

Android Lost is another good one.
Lookout is good if you want AntiVirus and basic tracking all in one, but you need the full version for more advanced tracking features such as call logs, photos etc.

Android Lost gives you even more functionality for free.

You can also create a Samsung account and use Samsung Dive.
If you are using a custom ROM you may have to install the Dive package separately.

I use lookout and I think Samsung comes with its own version of tracking if you go on Samsung web site but I could not get it going. Lookout is very easy to get working.

i bought theft aware from market,

I have tried sending texts to it from my wifes phone with code word included and it seems to work really well. Unlike lots of others it does not need an internet connection, also switches GPS on your phone if it is not already on.

Tried using Samsung Dive since I got my phone and it has never worked. Many threads from others saying the same thing. Not sure why it won't work...

The samsung dive just doesn't seem to be working for me I made it to the step where you enable remote controls but when I go to the samsung dive website and log in it just says "register your mobile phone now"

Prey is highly regarded, comes with several security features and works across multiple platforms, so you can have it ipad/ipod, windows laptops etc aswell as your android phone.... works a treat too.
