Not long after Google started rolling out the Android 4.4.2 KitKat update for the HTC One Google Play Edition, comes reports from several Galaxy S4 GPE (GT-i950G) owners informing us that they too are now receiving the much-anticipated 57.8MB update — which brings a multitude of security enhancements, bug fixes and speed optimizations but also removes the Apps Ops security app which Google says was “accidentally introduced”.

When Google started rolling out Android 4.3 Jelly Bean to the Nexus 4 back in July, some users stumbled upon a very handy privacy feature, called “App Ops”, hidden in the Developer’s section of the built-in settings application, which enabled them to “install apps while preventing the app from collecting sensitive data like the user’s location or address book” — which I am pretty sure we can all agree is a rather useful security function to have on our devices.

HTC is today pushing out a rather large unexpected over-the-air update to all its unlocked One Mini handsets currently located in Hungary. According to the changelog, the upgrade brings Android 4.3 Jelly Bean and the latest version of Sense 5.5 to the device, together with a multitude of additional bug fixes, speed optimizations and stability improvements, as well as a bunch of new soundtracks for the built-in Video Highlights feature.

Motorola has updated its official Touchless Control application for devices running KitKat 4.4 on the Google Play Store. This latest version of the app allows its operators to use more Google Now voice commands without having to unlock their phone.

Yesterday, just 6 days after Google started rolling out the latest build of Android 4.4.2 Jelly Bean to all its Nexus devices, the team at Mountain View began to push out the exact same upgrade for the Google Play Edition of HTC’s flagship smartphone, the HTC One.
