Hi im having problems with the avast antithef since I changed from 4.1.2 to 4.3 I understand google limited the options such as gps and wipe so I tried to install new rooted version (as advised on popup message) from play store and get a message that im already protected and have to unistall (deactivate) the App, I do so and same message appears as if the old antitheft would still be working even though I uninstalled the whole avast (free version 3.0.6897antitheft and 3.0.6915 avast mobile) and it doesnt even appear as device administrator or even super user apps so cant seem to work around for the moment My device appears as secured on the page but I cannot track nor do anything, plz advise.
Hello,
I’m afraid I don’t fully understand your problem.
- reboot your phone and see if the problem persists. it’s importaint and necessary to reboot the phone after a rooted installation (we inform the user about this in an info box)
if this doesn’t help uninstall all remaining anti-theft installation(s) (use the uninstall wizard in AMS settings) and check your app manager for further left over installations.
