Now that continuous waves of attacks against Sony’s servers have slowed down a bit (it’s been over a week since the last hack), the company found some strength to regroup and released an Android client for its popular cloud music service Music Unlimited, powered by Qriocity.
$3.99/month for basic and $9.99/month for premium (30-day free trial available) buy you streaming of various catalogs of music from the web (à la Pandora) as well as syncing of your own library to Sony’s cloud servers with subsequent playback from said cloud (à la Amazon Cloud Drive and Google Music).
Considering most of the above can be achieved without a monthly subscription, I am not sure how many of you will jump over to Music Unlimited, although if there’s one thing it has going for it, it’s the UI design. Gorgeous doesn’t begin to describe it – it’s probably one of the cleanest UIs I’ve ever seen on Android.
Have a look at the official description, the differences between basic and premium (link available if you’re logged into Qriocity – I hope my newly created login will stay unhacked for at least a little while), followed by the screenshots below, then jump to the Market links by clicking or scanning our app widget.
Note #1: The installer currently weighs 32MB, without Apps2SD support whatsoever (it’s copy protected using an antiquated technique), so it’s not for the weak of heart at all.
Note #2: Music Unlimited is only compatible with Android phones running OS versions 2.1-2.3.3 – sorry, tablet and 2.3.4 owners.
Note #3: As far as availability around the world goes, according to Wikipedia, Music Unlimited "… was launched in December 2010 in United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland. It launched in the United States early in January 2011. It was launched in France, Italy, Germany, and Spain in late January, 2011. It launched in Australia and New Zealand in February 2011."

After around two successful years of launching its Android app, Niki is jumping to the next level by introducing voice feature. Users will now be able to shop for products and a number of services using voice commands. To help shape it better, we are looking for beta testers who can talk to Niki and point out bugs, or suggest improvements!

Niki is an AI-powered bot, which happens to be the pioneer in conversational commerce in India. One can pay bills, book movie tickets, buses, hotels, cabs and more by simply chatting with Niki. Our aim is to make Artificial Intelligence accessible to everyone i.e. Businesses and consumers. To consumers, it’s a simple and easy to use chat interface to shop for products and services. To the businesses, it provides a plug and play technology that can be easily integrated everywhere including operating systems, on messaging platforms like Facebook Messenger, and on the brand’s applications (app and web).
One chatbot to rule them all

Keeping Niki installed, one can replace over 10-15 apps on his/her phone and get tasks done via a single chat window interface.

Voice feature
2017 is being called the year of Artificial Intelligence. Although the technology is being explored since years, the new developments have been exciting. Big players such as Google, Apple and Amazon already have their voice-controlled assistants for you. And even when there is immense scope for improvements, they are definitely helping make life easier. The virtual assistants are at your service as soon as you blurt out a command.
Similarly, ordering and making transactions on chat has been a much easier option. We wish to make it even more fun, time-saving and convenient for the end-users, by letting them talk to Niki and get things done.
For this to be successful, we definitely need your help with testing and feedback to improve accuracy and efficiency. Niki learns and becomes smarter as she talks to people! Join the next revolution by being a part of Niki’s foray into voice-controlled commerce!

These fake Android apps will silently steal your money

If you think you're immune to hackers if you only download legitimate Android apps from Google Play, think again.
Researchers at McAfee Mobile Research have uncovered a new "money-grabbing" campaign, involving at least 15 re-packaged applications that secretly subscribe to paid premium services while users do not pay attention This list includes many applications called "phishing scams" such as Qrcode Scanner, Cut Ringtones 2018 and Despacito Ringtone.
The campaign was launched by AsiaHitGroup Gang, which first appeared in late 2016, targeting the main victims in Thailand and Malaysia. This group uses a fake software installer called Sonvpay.A that downloads and installs popular applications that are not released on Google Play, of course with a certain amount of underlay. . But what is worth mentioning here is that it secretly subscribes to paid services in the background for at least 20,000 victims by sending SMS messages to paid phone numbers.
But that is just the beginning.
The group then "captured" Google Play in November 2017, with the second campaign targeting Thailand, Malaysia, and Russia. They modified the fake installer, naming it Sonvpay.B, to download a fake version of the familiar Google Play app. In this campaign, Sonvpay relies on the geographical location of the IP address to identify the country of origin of the victim. It also uses the same SMS method as the first one, plus the WAP Billing feature - billing directly to the network - to secretly register victims into premium services.
Their third campaign began in January of this year, targeting Android devices that visit Google Play in Malaysia and Kazakhstan. Instead of creating fake applications, the team has incorporated legacy Android applications into Sonvpay.C, allowing it to use silent push notifications in the background to secretly register victims into services. premium paid. Applications themselves do not appear to be dangerous, except for requesting access to SMS. In fact, they work just fine.

"The subscription is primarily made through WAP Billing, which does not require sending SMS messages to premium numbers," said Carlos Castillo of McAfee. "Instead, it only requires users to use the network. Mobile to access a specific website and automatically click a button to launch the registration process. "
Once you install one of the other applications, Sonvpay will receive paid premium subscription services through push notifications that phone users will never see. These services are paid directly to the network. In addition, there is a fake "update" component, which requires the user to agree to allow the application to update, and Sonvpay.C will take advantage of that to register for premium services. Even if the user does not agree, these services will still appear in the network invoice depending on the statement sent through the push message.
The problem with the pay-as-you-go model and this type of scam is that usually, users will not notice until they receive monthly receipts. And because this is a subscription model, the victim will have to find out how to stop subscribing to premium services mentioned above.
When the McAfee team discovered Qrcode Scanner, Cut Ringtone 2018 and Despacito Ringtone were attached to Sonvpay.C, they warned Google and the apps were removed from Google Play. Despacito Ringtone reappears after a few days, once again infected with Sonvpay.C, and again be killed by Google.
Certainly AsiaHitGroup Gang will be back with the 4th campaign. Be wary!
