Anti-theft software that can survive a factory reset?


One of my close friends s4 Mini got stolen, and she had no tracking software on it. To make sure this doesn't happen again, I'm looking for advanced anti-theft software that can possibly survive a factory reset, or wipe.


These are what I had in mind:



  • Flash a bad recovery


Everyone nowadays knows to hold down the vol+home+power button to factory reset a phone. Flashing a bad recovery, as far as I'm concerned, prevents this. Obviously with ODIN you can re-flash a good recovery when needed.



  • Program a polling system APK


This would regularly ping a server with details of the phone's gps location and battery life. If the phone is wiped, because it is a system APK, and custom programmed to my server, it should still work?



  • Password Protected recovery

Back to the main question though: does any anti-theft software exist that can survive a factory reset?
