Appcloaner: App recognizes it has been cloned - General Questions and Answers

Hey guys.
So I use Jodel, a local community app where people in a city can post anonymously.
I wanted to clone the app using AppCloaner and it always worked.
No I've tried doing this again and for some reason the app knows it's been cloned.
Ive checked and there is some sort of anti tampering now present in the app. Is there any way to not trigger the anti tampering?

Wifi Kill / Mobile Defense / Malware?

I've had Wifi Kill installed since it came out. I'm also a long time user of Mobile Defense. CM7 Nexus One.
About a month ago, Mobile Defense started flagging Wifi Kill as malware providing the option to uninstall it.
The Mobile Defense site has absolutely no information on the malware component (that I've found).
Anyone know if Wifi Kill is evil beyond it's stated purpose?
No, its not. Many things come up as malware that shouldn't, because of the permissions they require. The wifikill code has been gone through and compiled by many developers...its fine.
Great, thanks. In that case, I'm tired of the Mobile Defense pop up warning and notification. Recommendations for a different phone tracking / remote lock app?

Securing adroid devices as much as possible.

Hey guys!
I'm given the task of securing 2 android devices (galaxy tab 7.0 and an S3). The friend of mine who has asked me to do this has been hacked (on an Iphone and on a windows PC) recently (for various sinister reasons) and After I secured her windows environment she bought these devices. A while after using the phone someone started to remotely control the phone and typed 'hell' in our language and she is really afraid. One of the pcs I secured has been stolen since it couldn't be reached remotely anymore, so I guess the threat is pretty serious. Now getting to the point, what would be the BEST way to do this ?
-Flashing custom roms on these (which is the most secure?)
-Seting up an antivirus + firewall on both devices (also I'd like to know which of these are the best NP if its paid)
-Setting up an anti theft app (and same here, I know Cerberus, but I'm wondering if there is a better solution)
The hard part of this is the fact the hackers are very likely experts (they hacked her Iphone back then making it taking photos and logging all keys like a regular keylogger).
What a story!
I strongly recommend avast! AntiVirus which comes with avast! Anti-Theft. Best Part: It's free!
McAfee is supposed to detect more malware but not as many as it would be worth its price.

Thank you Buddy! Any additional professional suggestions? Anyone?
Anti-virus is only a curative solution, and can only detect malware after they have already breached your device. Android's security model makes it difficult for an attacker to remotely breach the device, unless they have a bad app installed on the device. When a user installs an app, they give that app certain permissions, and these permissions need to be checked to ensure they aren't being used as malicious apps (why would a camera app need to make phone calls on your behalf?) . The best suggestion would be to exercise good permission checking habits to ensure you aren't accidentally installing a bad app. Also, attackers may also send bad code through SMS, which may appear as a clickable link. I could keep going on possible ways to get compromised, but these are the most prominent.

Get a PermissionsManager like OpenPDroid or XPrivacy.

How to share apps on android

Hi guys,
Today morning, I was on the bus with a friend. He wanted to check whether his phone's magnetometer works. So he asked me if I had the 'compass' app. I did have it, but I didn't know how to send it to him. I knew that it was possible, but I didn't have the app that allows you to share files. But luckily he had the app. So he sent the sharing app to me using the sharing app itself so that I could share the app that he wanted. Too many “sharing” words in the last sentence, forgive me.
So I was now able to send the 'compass' app to him easily in seconds.
The 'sharing app' that we used is called “ShareCloud (share apps)”. Certainly not the most creative name but trust me it is very useful. This app lets us send apps via Bluetooth, face to face(p2p, by creating a wi-fi hotspot), WhatsApp, facebook, email and numerous other ways. I will talk about some of them further in the post. Basically all it does is, it copies the installation file and sends it through the specified way. So once the app is received on the other device, it needs to be installed. The file will only get installed is the device supports the app to function. Using this app is a child's play. It has a very easy-to-use interface. You literally have to just select the app and send it. It is as simple as that. This app is available for free to download on the google play store. This app doesn't take up much space and it works almost magically. The best part is, you don't have to root your phone to use this app.

Hi Pro Members
Now day's i am struggling to find a solution but all vain.
Reason is that i just want to stop or disable the uninstalling the specific app because my girl friend uninstall most of applications which are used for social media like Whatsapp or IMO or Hangout because she's doubt i might be cheating on her and she thought i deleted all conversation or history and media which is being shared and i don't like to argue with her because i love her.
Moreover i tried many method's like protecting my application's from an app which is downloaded from Play Store like ( App Lock)
but i allowed to be uninstalled after confirming the Pattern or PIN code.
I want my application not be uninstalled by system.
And also that mine phone is Rooted..
