Hi,
I read about Where's My Droid on a blog and wanted to know if anyone has had any experiences with that app (or any other app) in recovering their lost, stolen or misplaced Nexus.
Thanks in advance
I am new Nexus 10 WiFi only user.
LOVE IT, I am also an Apple OSX Hackintosh user [OSX running on an Intel PC] and of course Windows 7.
I looked at
Cerberus app. Looks like its
best security requires rooting device.
I know that Cerberus will only work for me in WiFi when the Nexus can connect to the internet. Thief or buyer eventually connects to the INET.
As new user I would like that my device- most of the time- to be UNROOTED. That way I will not be likely to BRICK my device or get apps failure because of rooting etc.
I think that I need an automated procedure that:
Sets up Cerberus in the
rooted configuration.
Can that be the permanent config for Cerberus? And continue to be the Cerberus config. even during times when device is unrooted?When screen saver is activated.
When I turn device off.
When there are other conditions where I have left my device unattended.
The Nexus is rooted automatically
Cerberus operates automatically in the rooted configuration.
Nexus sleeps or is off.
When I want to use my Nexus 10 again:
I would like to login or equal.
I would like to use a
password or preferably my Yubikey[Among other features it can send a very long fixed passport from the Yubikey device connected on the Nexus' USB OTG port].
I recognize I may need to do other things for my Nexus to READ the Yubikey's output[ I will look like it is being sent from a keyboard].
During or after login I would like my device to UNROOT itself so I can use it "normally".
What tools and apps do I need to automate these procedures?
I can usually create simple scripts but I cannot program in C or even "easier" languages.
Any suggestions for another way I can always have my unattended Nexus operate so the Cerberus ROOTED configuration is operative?
