| ZTE Nubia Z5 release date leaked? Posted: 19 Dec 2012 12:47 PM PST We recently published an article about 50 applications you should download before the world ends on December 21, but it seems ZTE is also planning to launch a device on the same day, may be they are looking forward to launch the last smartphone of this world. Anyway, I am talking about the ZTE Nubia Z5, a device we saw a few days ago in a leaked shot, is one kind of a monster smartphone designed by Italian designer Stefano Giovannoni.
Some good dough under the hood, no? Also this device will be the world thinnest Full HD smartphone. It’s expected that it will launch with a price tag of $400, which is apparently not bad at all.

| Samsung to fix Exynos software vulnerability ‘as quickly as possible’ Posted: 19 Dec 2012 08:14 AM PST Samsung recently gave an updated statement concerning a software vulnerability in their Exynos kernel. They confirmed that they were already aware of the issue, and did also acknowledge that the exploit is a specifically-coded app that takes advantage of the vulnerability in the code. Moral of the story: stick with approved apps from the app store, and you should be alright. Samsung had the following to say:
The vulnerability has the capacity to give the app total control over a device’s RAM, letting it completely run the device. The Galaxy Note 2, as well as international versions of the Galaxy S2 and Galaxy S3, are found to be vulnerable thus far. If you’re worried about being affected by the app, there is a third party solution (found here) that will check your vulnerability, and fix the issue for you. via androidcentral Be sure to follow AndroidGuys on Facebook, Twitter, and YouTube!   |

| Strategy Analytics: 275 million 4G LTE smartphone shipments in 2013 Posted: 19 Dec 2012 07:44 AM PST The number of 4G LTE smartphone shipments will triple in the coming year, says research firm Strategy Analytics. Forecast to hit 275 million in 2013 this will dwarf the 91 million shipments over the last 12 months. Among the companies poised to capitalize most are Samsung, LG, and Apple however rising tides lift all boats. With that in mind, 2013 should also help Motorola, HTC, Pantech, ZTE, and Huawei.

What’s new, you might ask? Oh, just a few cool things like “read aloud” (listen to most flowing text books), pinch-to-zoom, and personalized recommendations at that end of your books. Of course there’s also bug fixes and performance tweaks as well, but we’re digging on the new reading experience.

| Entry-level Galaxy Frame to debut at MWC, source indicates Posted: 19 Dec 2012 06:22 AM PST Samsung will introduce a new Galaxy Frame smartphone at Mobile World Congress, according to sources close to SamMobile. Details are incredibly scarce at this point however we are expecting it in a pearl white color only. Reportedly, the hardware is not all that powerful and the specs will likely fall in line with the Galaxy Ace or Galaxy Mini. Should that be the case then we might expect a smallish screen and single-core or dual-core processor.
