OnePlus is banned from selling smartphones in Germany yet again

OnePlus and Oppo are facing yet another patent dispute, this time with InterDigital over 5G and mobile technology patents. As a result, only OnePlus smartphones are currently unavailable for sale in Germany, while other products remain unaffected.

This situation is similar to a previous dispute with Nokia, which also led to a sales ban in Germany, though that issue was only recently resolved.

It's unclear when OnePlus will resume smartphone sales in the country.

BREAKING: Xiaomi Plans To Stop Offering Bootloader Unlocking

Following a fake news Last year related to shutting down offering bootloader unlocking to smartphones launched after May, 2024, now, even famous leakers are claiming that internally, Xiaomi has indeed made plans to shutdown the bootloader unlocking service for global users by the end of 2025.

For China, since the Bootloader unlocking period was over last month, it will once again resume after Xiaomi 15 series global launch in 2025. Xiaomi already collects a lot of data to identify which user in China unlocked the bootloader but since that can't be done globally, Xiaomi might ultimately shut down the service for them.

If this happens, the following changes will take place on Earth:
• RIP Xiaomi federations
• People will think 1000 times before buying due to HypeOS
• Some users will finally understand that hardware-quality matters more that on-paper specs and cheap price
• NO Xiaomi buildbots

This reporting on the Pegasus spyware is very interesting because the reality doesn't live up to the hype surrounding Pegasus. It's been hyped up to be some super mysterious spyware that no one knows how it gets installed, and has been claimed to install with no user interaction. But this video with the discoverer of Pegasus clearly says that the spyware was downloaded and installed after clicking on a link in an SMS text message just like all the rest of the run of the mill malware.

Chrome Canary just killed uBlock Origin and other Manifest V2 extensions

Google Chrome Canary has removed the flag that allows users to re-enable Manifest V2 extensions, including ad blockers like uBlock Origin. This is a significant move towards the full depreciation of V2 extensions.

The new V3 framework limits ad blockers by forcing them to use the declarativeNetRequest API, which reduces their ability to block ads dynamically.

Ad blockers and other MV2 extensions still work in the public version of Chrome.

Google is testing a new version of Chrome for Android with extensions support

The new Desktop Android project brings browser extensions support to Chrome for Android, but there's a catch: It's not intended for mobile devices at the moment.

More details on this new project can be found in my latest article on Android Authority.
The October 2024 Android Security Bulletin is now live.

The Android Security Bulletin for October 2024 is the first bulletin after the launch of Android 15, and it lists some fixes for security vulnerabilities that impact the latest version.

Fortunately, there are no "critical" severity vulnerabilities in this month's bulletin.
