First of all, sorry for my bad English.
I love avast!, and i use it on my laptop and android phone.
This is my little thought, and i am sharing it to make avast! more perfect security system.
The scenario which i mentioned in the first post is different.
Phone gets stolen> phone owner sends sms to lock the phone> 1234 lock> avast! anti theft locks the phone
Now the thief see the lock text message on the phone screen>anyway the thief is not going to return the phone !
Thief needs the password to unlock the phone> {idea !} thief removes the sim from the stolen phone and inserts in to his phone>
Phone owner sends another sms to the phone to locate it> 1234 locate>
Now thief gets the password on his phone and can unlock the stolen phone !
The above mentioned scenario may be a rare chance, but things can happen like this also !
If the thief replaces the sim, the whole effort by the phone owner to secure his phone becomes useless !
This can be avoided if a separate password is used only to activate the anti theft using sms commands.
At least we can prevent the thief from accessing the phone data.
Please share your thoughts..
