How to delete "Malware found!" alarm?
« on: January 28, 2013, 09:55:26 AM »

On Android ICs 4.04 (Zeus ROM IZS v.0) I get a false-positive alarm:
LocMgrPT  potentially  unwanted program detected - Android:Locmg-A [PUP]

I only can uninstall this system app or report it (I did this several times).

I would like to reset the alarm. How can I do this?

Hi,

there is no "ignore forever" option in AMS at the moment, sorry.

You can turn off PUP detections in AMS Settings though if you are sure you want to do that.

I tried this already but the false alarm does not disappear.

You need to do an apps rescan for the change to take effect.
