needed app help/suggestions

[SadTacoMan]

Hello, I was wondering if there is an app for if I ever lost my phone I could track where it is and delete everything on it if need be.

Also I'd like a link to the tutorial on how to fully mod my s3 and put custom roms on the phone like kitkat such and such.
(Not necessary but it would be nice)

Anyways that's all.
Thanks c:

Get the paid version of lookout..that will do everything you ask.

As for rooting the S3 it's pretty straight forward with one click tools now available.

Check out the rooting forum at the bottom of the S3 forums..make sure you check the right one for your phone!

You can get Android Device Manager from google play. From my laptop I can see where my phone is, have it ring or wipe it. Review from pc mag with links: Android Device Manager Review & Rating | PCMag.com

You don't need an app. It's built into your phone. Go to google settings in your apps. Select Android Device Manager. Then check the box that says Allow Remote Lock and Erase.

I've been using Prey on my mobile stuff for the past few years and like it quite a bit. It'll let you track/monitor/delete your phone, tablet, or laptop using a web interface, and it's free (for up to three devices). Plus it works with Linux, OS X, Windows, Android, and iOS. I like it because I can use one service to remotely track both my laptop and my phone.
