Can't set anti-theft as device administrator

Avast Mobile Apps Avast Anti-Theft for Android
1

Hi all,

I have a Samsung galaxy S4 GT-i9515 upgraded to Lollipop 5.0.1 , the phone is rooted.
The problem is that I just cant set Avast anti-theft as device administrator , and it keeps signaling that in the problems section.

When I manually enter the “device administrator” section I can choose among S voice, Android device administrator and the name I gave to anti-theft, “iphone” in this case.
when I tap on iphone it opens the permissions page and then activate.
But no way to get the “iphone” checkbox flagged .

Any hint?
Did I go wrong somewhere?
