Best Phone finder for andriod?

[JTsyo]

Looking for a free phone finder app for a Note2. Most seem to find the phone form another phone running the app. Something like the iPhone official one would be good, where you can log into a website and see the phone location.

Even with a physical locale, the odds of you getting it back unharmed are quite poor. I recommend something that wipes the phone remotely, or even bricks it.
And insurance thru your carrier.

I use this and I haven't seen a huge drain in battery or anything like that.

Cerebus is for rooted right? (im pretty sure it is)

No, I have it on my sgs3 and galaxy tab 2 7" and neither are rooted.

There's a rooted version to run it as a hidden application, and to enable certain other features.

Warning for thread crapping and profanity
Spelling is pretty important when it comes to trying to find things on the Google Play store. I think vshah's correction is useful and your reply is unwarranted and out of line.

My apologies.

Is there a free one that just shows you the location w/o the other bells and whistles?

Where's my Droid (Lite)

I used that way back, haven't used it since so I don't know how much has changed.

"Free" doesn't cut it.
Trust me on this, Bob. Cerberus is well worth the investment.

Not for me. I could see $5 being worth protecting a $200 phone.

Ummm...The Galaxy Note II is worth more than $200 last time I checked.

On 2 year contract, again not my phone, might have been more.

OP you already have one installed. Android device manager does what you want. (cerberus is better though)

Google Android Device Manager? Or Airdroid.

I think there was a spam bot that bumped the thread and posted prior to him.
Either that or he's really learning to practice the art in necromancy.
