Say what?

You may want to change your wallet and discard your seed since you seem to have entered it into so many online websites so far. When you do things like this, there is a chance that you leak your keys!
Listen to this guy!

You made so many mistakes..... First, it sounds like you've entered your seed phrase on at least one website. You should NEVER do that! I can't emphasize enough how bad this is. Second: signing a message on mobile is annoying. Third: why do you want to sign a message anyway? The address you're signing from is empty. You can install as many wallets as you want, get a new wallet with a new seed phrase on a computer and sign an address there.
Oh, and first: forget about your current wallet. Create a new one, move all your funds. Keep you old wallet, but mark it COMPROMISED and never use it again.
