Did you not have a pin/swipe pattern on it?!
Security software, but no actual security...you cant be that retarded surely?
Pin code/swipe provides no real security, it's authentication which can easily be bypassed, not encryption. Ironically it's actually less secure because people like you think it does provide security, thus leaving sensitive data on your phone.
Secondly it hinders actually getting the phone back because if someone can't get onto the phone they restore it back to factory settings or flash it and then there's no way of tracking it.
As for the OP Cerberus will automatically enable GPS on rooted android phones.
