So I just downloaded and installed the software on my phone, and the first impressions, I must say, are decidedly not good. In fact, they're terrible.
I followed the instructions exactly as stated and enabled the Anti-Theft app, which is now in stealth mode. As required, I entered a 4-digit passcode to lock the app. Well, now every time I try to open avast! Mobile Security it asks me for my passcode, and then foolishly refuses to accept it as correct.
The first time it happened, I finally got it to accept the passcode after entering it 5 or 6 times. But now, it won't accept it regardless. Anyone know how to solve this? (And before anyone asks - yes, I am positive I'm entering the correct passcode.)
I am using an HTC One X running ICS with HTC's Sense 4.0 UI skinned over.
I thought of uninstalling the apps, but while I can see the Anti-Theft (which I very inconspicuously named "Thief") in my app management list, clicking it just brings up the info for the app. I can't find any option to disable that "Device Admin" thing or whatever it was called.
Please advise.
[EDIT: Okay, the second part of the problem is fine. I figured out how to deactivate "Thief" as device admin and uninstalled it. Would still like to know about the passcode problem, though.]
