Uninstalling Automagic

Post by banik2008 » 20 Oct 2013 13:34

I installed Automagic to a new device via Titanium Backup, but it seems it didn't create the necessary folders, because no scripts can be saved. I tried uninstalling so that I could do a clean reinstall but that doesn't work, I get the following error: "This app is a device administrator and must be deactivated before uninstalling". What does that mean, and how do I deactivate so that I can uninstall?

Go to android settings > location and security > select device administrators > un-tick automagic from the list. After that the uninstallation should be successful.

In order to automagic be able to lock the device and do some other actions the device admin settings should be enabled.
