android anti-virus
-
I use none. I am very careful with what I do with the phone and have not faced any trouble yet. I used AVG on S3 I had earlier. Never felt like I needed it.

You did not mention the $499 fee for unlocking it.

I think words like 'destiny' are a way of trying to find order where none exists. - Christian Graus Entropy isn't what it used to.
I don't have the Pro Version installed but I'm able to remotely lock my device from the AVG site. Absolutely free :) No fees whatsoever

That is a good choice, hackers seldom target obsolete technology. ;P

It's a 4G touchscreen phone with 128G expansion via SDhC. Galaxy must be amazing!:cool:

I am looking for a recommendation on a good anti virus for my Samsung Galaxy S4. I looked at the AVG Antivirus Security app in the Google play store. Is it any good? Any other recommendations for what you have used or are currently using? Thanks.
Within you lies the power for good - Use it!
I use Malwarebyes...haven't had any trouble. hasn't found anything either.

Sophos have a free offering for Android[^]. No idea if it's any good, as I haven't got a droid to test it.

I use iOS as my anti-virus for Android. Sorry - it had to be said. I'll go away now. ;P

Any device is susceptible to a virus and that certainly includes iOS. Read http://www.quora.com/Which-platform-is-more-vulnerable-to-viruses-iOS-or-Android for more insight.

Other than installing potential infected applications, what is the Galaxy susceptible to? (Honest question as I am going to be looking for a new phone tomorrow).
Common sense is admitting there is cause and effect and that you can exert some control over what you understand.
Any phone that has WiFi and bluetooth capability, IMHO, is susceptible for attack in public places. I have once met a guy in cafe who was sniffing packets from free and open WiFi network provided by cafe. Now, there is nothing that your anitvirus could do about it. So, just be careful. I just prefer not to do internet banking or online purchase from phone. Other than that, all I have is few songs, photos, messages and contacts which I do not really care if someone reads.

You, too? I just got my Galaxy S4 yesterday, and still trying to get used to it.

I think the question should not be whether it is any good, but which protects you without sapping your performance.

I have had mine for a while now. About 6 months. I really like the phone, especially the screen size. My wife has an iPhone 5 and she is constantly borrowing mine as she likes mine better.

The lack of a suitable belt clip for carrying is a bit off-putting, but I suppose I'll get used to it. I'm considering a purse for it, but having a hell of a time finding one to match my work boots.

I'm currently using ESET mobile security. It's pretty good.
