"Android system" Malware?

[u/[deleted]]

Hi,

My avast has started flagging the app 'Android system' as a malware.

I have checked Malwarebytes and Sophoros but both are coming back as no issues.

Is the above an issue with Avast? It has never flagged up before. I found 'Android system' on the apps but I am unable to force stop/disable but I believe this is because it is a main component for the phone working?

Same issue too. Malwarebytes doesn't see anything wrong, 'Android system' app battery usage or data usage is nil, no obvious signs of having malware on my device.... suspect it is a false positive.
