SMS, Call fwd not in english
« on: February 17, 2013, 07:41:21 PM »
The target or lost phone is a Samsung Mesmerize and sends texts to the requested number from Avast, but many are not in English.  I don't even know what character or language it is!  Same result from different sourced texts, calls.  The receiving phone is a Moto Electrify.  Both are running Android 2.3.5.  Anyone else seen this before?  Avast AT v 2.0.2627

Hello,

what language are the app (anti-theft, Mobile security) and the phone sending the SMS set to?
could you send a screenshot of such a message? I'd like to take a look at this problem.

The phone is set to English.  As you can see, the last message is in 2 parts. Part one in different language, Part 2 came in english.

Hmm, I have nothing to do with this, but for me it just looks like jibberish, not another language. One of the devices probably have troubles with packing or unpacking the messages. It shouldn't matter, but are both devices running the same version of Anti-Theft?
