What this app malware can perform: Steal your contacts and pictures
- Track your location
- Access your text messages
- Log your keystrokes and passwords
- Send SMS messages to premium numbers without your knowledge that can result in a very high phone bill
- Fake legitimate banking applications and steal your personal banking information when you log in
Does avast have added this mal-app detection to it's mobile detection?

From here it seems a somewhat older detection:

Admogo aka 激情成人视频 v1 was removed from the Hong Kong Google Play Store.

Hello Polonus,
all of those samples are detected by ADS detections in paid version. Generally those samples are not malicious but only contains ad kits.
Have a nice day!
