Setting up Anti-Theft on avast in Android phone
1.open your app(avast anti-theft) then configure the anti-theft module. Once you accept and start the setup process, your phone will be checked for system dependencies like internet connection, etc. Having succeeded in the test, the process will start.
2.If you have root access on your device, put a check against the option Root Installation to get some extra perks from the app. For the guide I will stick to non-rooted installation, but we will talk about root features time to time.
3.The app will ask you the name of a dummy app to download for your mobile. It will be the avast! Anti-Theft app itself but with a dummy name and icon to fool prying eyes. You can give a name yourself or ask avast! to assist you. Once you confirm to it, the app will download and install the customized app for your phone.
4.After you have installed the customized app, you can close the avast! Mobile Securities and open the dummy app to control the Anti-Theft features. You can now go ahead and set up some basic settings like your device name, the password that will be used for security and authentication in remote commands, phone number of friends for notifications etc. After you set up these settings you can go ahead and turn on the anti-theft feature.
5.In the advanced settings you can configure the behavior of the phone when it gets lost or stolen. You can configure the lock screen message, USB debugging settings, GPS behavior. Root users will get some additional settings here like full wipe and factory reset. Root users can also install the app as a system partition.
