Nokia 1.3 pre-installed malware - bluetooth

Most anti-virus apps will give you false positive scans.
Ignore it and move on

 

yep i have been using android since its inception and never have i used any anti-virus or malware apps.....and i have never gotten anything malicious on my phone. its a waste of your money.....hopefully you got the free version

 

I admit that this sounds like a false positive to me too. Interesting that it doesn't seem to identify the malware it claims to have found (normally these things will give a name to the malware signature they've detected). And I'm a little suspicious of the idea that a user-installed app would have the privileges to scan the system software, so suspect that they are trying some indirect detection here.

If it was a no-name backstreet Chinese phone I'd consider it possible. But Nokia have far too much to lose to do something like this, so the more likely explanation is that Avast have got it wrong.
