Hi,

that means the downloaded application was corrupted. Something must be wrong with either your Internet connection (the better option) or with your device (probably the worse option). It might be an OS fault so you might try rebooting your device and trying again or doing a factory reset (which will erase all of your data). Hope it's not a hardware error (faulty device memory).

minacross,

Did you uninstall AVG and Dr. Web prior to installing Avast?

If I understand correctly, the previous version of Avast worked fine on your phone, but the upgrade is not working?

Have you made any changes to your phone, including adding any apps., or upgrades to the phone by your provider?
