Zoner AntiVirus Free

I personally dont think you should really need an antivirus.
IMO.

i don't think that antivirus is really necessary.
but if u want to, try Dr.Web Antivirus..

Yeah I don't think it's really necessary too, it will make your phone slower

I use anti virus over 1 year and never get a alert of virus,now I don't use and my battery support me 2 hours more

yeah I've tried using Lookout and lately using Antivirus free by Creative Apps, never get a virus. I think Android Market is good enough to filter the apps.
But Lookout has an interesting feature that could locate your phone or even give an instruction to your phone (from your lookout account, can be opened in your computer) to play an alarm loudly.
Actually, you won't need it. It's just interesting.

there is no need of an antivirus,it will only drain ur battery......

i've already installed all of those, never detect any viruses.

I would personally not use any anti-virus app as it would just use memory resources. Remember that android is based on linux which is unlikely to be affected by a virus.

Actually there is no need of antivirus for android phones
u can keep it if u want to but it will do nothing more than slowing down your phone and running in background

antivirus free

all anti virus just eat up our phone's ram , better not to use any , there is very less chances of our devices getting infected

BitDefender Mobile Security

Zoner Antivirus is TOP antivirus for me. I can find bad application on the android market. I installed app Flashlight, but Zoner say: Trojan.Exploit

Personnaly, I don't use antivirus, because, I scan apk files, with my antivirus on my pc, and any files.
Before I use Kaspersky mobile, but used many memory,
I advice you to use NetQUin is an app optimize and secure your device.

do you believe in antivirus?

hey guys... can somebody tell me if the "antivirus" app is really working on the android phone? if yes.. what is the recommended or best antivirus.. thanks in advance..

I like dr web lite antivirus and it works for me. Sometimes i have warning about malware in new installed software.

no need antivirus.. or try lookout, avast, webroot..

Not such use of antivirus but I keep avast as it has anti theft(its available for free) which is much better then other anti theft available in playstore.

You're playing Russian roulette!! Yesterday I installed an app. I confess: an illegal download from a newsgroup. But I had a password stealing virus. Suddenly I had to fill in all my stored passwords again and I got suspicious. So I downloaded avg free antivirus. It came up with a clear warning. Had to reinstall my rom again on Samsung galaxy mini and change all my passwords. I learned my lesson: do not install obscure free apps and certainly use a virus scanner. For me AVG did the job!

What I mean is: be careful! Use a virus scanner that constantly controls everything you install and this way prevents you from installing malicious software! I know: it costs performance, but it 'pays' with safety. Doesn't really matter what scanner you're using, just use one!

Antivirus?

Do you use anything? If so, what? I'm using Avast. Good, bad, something better?

I don't use any antivirus. I don't think that it is necessary, I download once a month any well known antivirus like avast and run the virus scan. Antiviruses only consumes a lot of ram.

you just download and install app thr google play. you don't need antivirus

Viruses can infiltrate your device in many more ways than just apps from Google Play. But it is interesting nonetheless that very few see any value of having any protection.

Most studies on Android and antivirus programs have pretty much shown that they're useless. You're much more likely to have problems from permissions that are built in to legitimate apps than you are from a virus or trojan.

Andoid is basically omune to viruses becuase it is based on linux ! So u use antivirus for nothing!! It is tottaly useless and also the apps of antivirus are controlled by ram and cpu and pgone memory so if u where to het a virus your antivirus couldnt do shi*
Press thanks if I helped!

I use Avast as well, mostly because of the free anti-theft features. I have never had much trouble, although sometimes it picks up false positives. This is usually fixed quickly.

I used to have Avast as well. But now I switch to free Chinese app called LBE Security Master, man it awesome.

Actually you are wrong in saying that Linux is omune to viruses, it just happens that no one targets Linux since its much harder to penetrate due to tight security measures. In the last month there were 48 apps removed from the play store which were infected with malware. Of which a few had been collecting personal data for up to 6 months. I will agree though that antivirus is not of much use anyhow and it only allows down your phone tremendously. But just because your downloading from the play store does not guarantee all apps are virus free. Remember to publish an app is very easy and almost anyone could do it.

Ok, I stand corrected as you did say "basically". I was not by any means trying to put your comment down as I she with you that it is kind of pointless to have antivirus on Android. I only wanted to make others aware of the fact that just because it's the play store doesn't mean you're guaranteed safety. I would personally never run any kind antivirus on Android. Shoot first thing I do when I get a new phone is remove all the crap bloatware and minimize the heck out of my roms.

Its fine no probs, I agree that playstore is full of vulnerable apps that have permission to see all your personal stuff, thats where app store on iphone is better than android! But no antivirus can help with that. Regards

i used to use Avast also but removed it after doping some research. Personally i think that I don't need an antivirus program on mine, but that's just me. Since Android is based on Linux i think it is very safe against virus's. There are very very little Linux malware exists in the wild. Malware for Windows on the other hand is extremely common. Usually if I'm side loading an app i scan it with my computer first before i install it on my phone or tablet. Here's a link i found about Android and viruses. http://www.howtogeek.com/129896/htg-explains-does-your-android-phone-need-an-antivirus/

Antivirus

Hi,
Do you use any antivir apk ? And wich one ? It is necessary to have one ?
Sent from my E15i using xda app-developers app

it aint necessary, but if you want one you can download from the play store, lots of choice to choose from except avira because it consumes a lot of RAM

Try Avast..(altho i dont recommend antivirus)

I don't use antivirus at all.......!
Installed some years ago, not a single detection of virus, so uninstall
Sent from my supercharged katana forged in underworld (yes, powerful than Z sword )

I never heard of anyone having any trouble at all with viruses on Android, and given the lacking resources X8 has already, downloading an app which constantly runs in the background doing nothing isn't the way to go.
In my opinion, if you don't install .apks or scripts from dubious sources you're going to be just fine.

And even if you do, try Lookout. It's got a locating feature as well.

I actually don't recommend antivirus for our device like X8 Antivirus is a battery hog and
slow down X8 not little bit! But you can feel the lags and stutter moderately.
There's no Antivirus that lightweight for particularly for X8...
but scan your device's SD-card with PC antivirus and also your device frequently can makes you satisfied.

I use anti virus : AVG beacose i like firewall security on my phone :fingers-crossed:

if you need an antivirus you should use Avast his the best

Restricate internet(mobile data),,built it setting!!!

Dear all,
I was wondering if we have any built in setting to totally restricate(not background data) mobile internet for few selected apps!! I used lbe security in previous xsola mobile. Since we dont have root n its kinda messy to use third party app to do these things. Since i use only mobile data need to save some data. If there is somthing like that setting kindly share with me. I would be very happy ... I saw these setting in my brothers iphone. I was so jelouse :banghead:

You could try Juice Defender Ultimate. This app has a lot of futures to handle sync and blocking on per app basis.
There's root if you really seem to need it btw.
