During the past few weeks, we’ve sneaked a peek and heard an awful lot about the Moto X+1, Motorola’s upcoming successor to its current flagship smartphone, the Moto X, and earlier today the handset reappeared on the company’s official website again, before quickly being removed.

Google finally gave the AOSP camera app the makeover it deserved last month, renaming it Google Camera. In the process, though, the company removed a lot of features including a countdown timer and the ability to take time-lapse videos.

Today, Google is rolling out a minor update for the app that brings back a feature that never should have been removed in the first place — the ability to click pictures while recording a video. 

The next malware attack you run into on Android could cost you hundreds of dollars. Researchers have discovered a new trojan that holds your handset hostage until you’ve paid a heavy ransom, and its fear-mongering tactics are designed to make you cough up quick.

After making its way onto your device, “Android-Trojan.Koler.A” displays a supposed FBI warning that accuses you of viewing or storing “banned pornography.” It tells you your handset has been blocked, and it restricts access to many important functions — including your home screen — rendering your device useless until you pay a $300 “fine.”

The Samsung Galaxy S5 mini could launch with the “Galaxy S5 Dx” moniker, according to a leak that comes direct from Samsung. A new Galaxy S5 variant with this name made a brief appearance on the South Korean company’s website this week, indicating its official unveiling may be right around the corner.

You could have the cheesiest chat-up lines in the world and they’re still likely to be more successful than showing a lady your new smartphone. But that’s all changed (according to AT&T), thanks to the Asus PadFone X — a phone that transforms into a tablet to help you pick up girls in the park.
