I study the idea of prey but it would be an installed app so if you could
remove it from your phone there is no protection enymore, i mean if the
theif could uninstall de app then this solution its no so definitive.

The main idea its to protect the phone(device) from the core main code,
some service that will be configured at start and can be uninstalled form
the system, and only let the phone start if there is an authorized account
in the phone(device)
