Well I did something wrong ...no surprise there:( But I don't know what to do now. I had purchased the Premier Webroot for my SG2 phone. I then upgraded to an SG4. I had uninstalled Premier from my SG2 (at least I thought I had) and deactivated the SG2 from the mobile security area where it was listed. But I find my SG2 & SG4 are shown in the console area along with my PC and tablet. In trying to transfer the Premier webroot to the new phone I get the triangle with the exclamation point in it and "Error The keycode you entered is not valid. (152)Activation/upgrade failed (here it has some other stuff and ends with the following: License check failed due to invalid keycode. Response code: 1 [error]" and on the new phone a free webroot security got installed. I cannot get back into my SG2 phone as it was deactivated when I got my new phone. I tried finding some tutorials online but wasn't sucessful. I am grateful for any help. Thank you. :$

+62Hi notpcwise,
Great we would like to know how this was resolved for you when you get a chance!
Thank you!:D

Fixed!! 😃. I am so thrilled. However, now I have learned that a lot of apps are accessing other places on my phone that they shouldn't. :@ But that being said, I am so happy to have this fixed. The webroot support team was very prompt in answering (same day as a matter of fact). I waited a few days before I checked for an answer because in the past when I posed a question on a forum it generally took a couple of days. So I learned that being more diligent on my part is a good thing. Thank you for the link and your patience. (No doubt I will soon be back with questions). In the meantime I will continue to visit and try to learn more from other's questions and solutions. I cannot express my appreciation for this forum enough. Thank you.
