Got HTC Explorer. It is not rooted. I Installed Avast Mobile Security and then Anti-Theft.
I'm not able to configure Anti-Theft now. When I start Anti-Theft, it adds my sim to safe list. I go to Setup Basic Settings --> Enable Anti-Theft , it gives me an error "The device owner is not set. Cannot enable Anti-Theft".
I checked properly, Anti-Theft is added as a device administrator. I tried uninstalling and installing again, rebooted my phone a couple of times but i'm stuck at the same place. Cant get it working. Cant enable Anti-Theft. Any idea what is going wrong?

Hello,
please open all the menu entries in the Basic Settings and complete the forms there.
- Your name: it asks for the device owners name (your name)
- avast! Password (the 4-6 digits pin code, only numbers)
- Remote Control: one or two friends numbers (which will be notified in case of sim changes)
all these basic informations are needed to activate anti-theft.

Thanks a ton! It worked... I think the Enable Anti-Theft checkbox should be after the Basic Settings menu, rather than before it.
Anyways, thanks a lot!
