The closest your gonna be able to get is a call (not text) history to numbers that called/were called by the phone.

LOL.
What makes you think that?
Having worked for 2 major telco's, and aware of the various divisions responsible for subpoenas, warrants, and warrantless surveillance, I can assure you that EVERY bit of data you send, every text message, every email, every phone call, etc CAN be retrieved within a certain time frame. The only exception to that is when end to end encryption is used, Ie the device encrypts the data, the encrypted data is then sent across the network to the other end device where it is decrypted.
Telcos have the ability, at the flip of a virtual switch, to transmit your location within about 30 ft, enable the microphone on your device, and transmit audio, without your knowledge.
Technology is a double edged sword.
