Btw, Google officially sells their merchandise in India in partnership with Printo - googlestore.printo.in

Although the catalogue isn't as vast as the Google US offering, it still includes water bottle, T-shirt, bag, stickers etc. The pricing shown is excluding 18% GST Tax & the shipping is quite nominal.

Google India was also doing an interesting marketing campaign in Select City Malls for their Pixel 9 series wherein they gave away FREE perfume samples prepared by mixing as many smells acc to your liking, totebags, stickers etc. However, the campaign was only till the 10th October.

## ๐Ÿšจ SCAM ALERT! ๐Ÿšจ Fake Play Integrity Fixes That Can Brick Your Phone!

Hey everyone, pay attention! Play integrity issues are common these days, but the solutions are usually easy. Unfortunately, some people are exploiting this with fake "fixes" that actually contain dangerous code designed to ruin your phone!

This is what happened to me:

Last night, a user with the ID 7402776516 messaged me about a "PIF fork module" that supposedly fixes play integrity issues. I was tired and didn't think twice, so I agreed to use it later.
(See Screenshot 1: The message I received.)


When I looked at the module's code this morning, I was horrified! It contained malicious code that could completely destroy my phone.
(See Screenshot 2: The dangerous code.)


Thankfully, I recognized the danger and didn't proceed. But many people wouldn't be so lucky.

Here's what you need to know:

โ€ข Never download modules from unknown sources or shady websites.
โ€ข Only trust official release channels or reputable developers.
โ€ข Be wary of unsolicited messages about "play integrity fixes," especially those from unfamiliar users.
โ€ข If you're unsure about anything, ask a tech-savvy friend for help.

Remember: Your phone is valuable. Don't let anyone trick you into ruining it!
โœ“ Reading this telegraph might help someone

Stay safe and share this information with your friends to help stop these scams!

BREAKING: ARM Cancels Qualcomm's Chip Design License

ARM has given Qualcomm a mandated 60-day notice of the cancellation of a license that allows Qualcomm to design its own chips based on standards owned by Arm. If the cancellation takes effect, Qualcomm might have to STOP selling products that account for roughly $39 billion in revenue or pay for massive damages.

The current situation traces its roots to a legal dispute from 2022 when ARM filed a lawsuit against Qualcomm after it acquired Nuvia. Arm claims that Qualcomm failed to renegotiate the ALA terms post-acquisition & is demanding the destruction of Nuvia's designs that were created before the Nuvia acquisition. They canโ€™t be transferred to Qualcomm without permission.

Qualcomm, however, argues that its existing Arm architecture license already covers Nuvia's work.
That said, Qualcomm accuses Arm of anti-competitive misconduct. The trial is set to begin in December 2024 & both the companies are confident of their win.

Intel and AMD Create Alliance To Defend x86 Architecture

At Lenovo Tech World, Intel and AMD announced a new x86 ecosystem advisory group. This group aims to unify the x86 architecture to enhance compatibility and innovation across products.

Both Intelโ€™s CEO Pat Gelsinger and AMDโ€™s CEO Lisa Su emphasized the critical role of x86 in driving technological advancements, especially in AI. Nvidiaโ€™s CEO Jensen Huang supported the initiative, noting that fragmentation in x86 was harmful for the industry.

Linus Torvalds and Tim Sweeney are the Luminaries along with founding members Broadcom, Dell, Google, Hewlett Packard Enterprise, HP Inc., Lenovo, Meta, Microsoft, Oracle, and Red Hat.

Intel Explores Foundry Alliance with Samsung
Source

Intel has reached out to Samsung Electronics to explore the possibility of forming a foundry alliance. Intelโ€™s CEO, Pat Gelsinger, is reportedly seeking a direct meeting with Samsung Electronics Chairman Lee Jae-yong to discuss comprehensive cooperation plans for their foundry divisions.

If an Intel-Samsung foundry alliance materializes, the two companies could collaborate on various fronts, including process technology exchanges, shared production equipment & joint R&D efforts.

Its' actually a good move because TSMC has established a monopoly and it is crazily increasing prices for its wafers, leading to increase in pricing for SoC's used in smartphones, data centers, gaming handlehelds etc. The price of TSMC's 2nm wafers is expected to double compared to 4/5nm, which may exceed USD 30,000 per wafer.

BREAKING: Google Tensor G5 Specification Leaked

Googleโ€™s Tensor G5 to power the Pixel 10 series next year will be designed internally by Google themselves without relying on Samsung for the bulk of the work. It will be manufactured on TSMC 3nm node process.

Tensor G5 CPU: codenamed 'Laguna'
SLC: 8MB
RAM: LPDDR5X (8533 Mbps)

โ€ข 1x Cortex-X4
โ€ข 5x Cortex-A725
โ€ข 2x Cortex-A520
Sadly Google is NOT using ARM's latest X925 cores which debuted with MediaTek Dimensity 9400 recently.

TPU:
The TOPS value is 18 / 9 TOPS (INT8/FP16), making it 40% larger compared to Tensor G4 but it will be around 15% faster only. The improved TPU also comes with a few new features for Googleโ€™s developers, such as small embedded RISC-V cores to allow running operations that are not implemented in hardware, as well as support for on-device training.

GPU:
This is the MOST disappointing part of the whole G5 chip. That's NOT because Google is ditching Mali GPU, but because Tensor G5 will feature PowerVR GPU from Imagination technologies โ€” IMG DXT-48-1536 clocked at 1100MHz.

These GPU are mostly used by UNISOC in their chips for smartphones. The only reason why Google switched to PowerVR GPU is due to virtualization support. It also supports Ray tracing, however, the GPU will just have 2 CU (compute units) only in 2025 for 1000$ flagship phone

Now, to get your an idea of how fast would be the GPU, some crazy people calculated the expected benchmarking value of OpenCL compute & it will score around ...... well ........ Let it be a surprise for Pixel fanbois.

BREAKING: Google is developing its own custom architecture for future Tensor chips

Google already has its own custom architecture called 'Cypress' but it is basically for Axion processors for datacenters.

But now, Google is also working on a custom CPU core called 'Orion' that will debut with future Tensor chips, atleast 'after' the Tensor G6. Interestingly, Google is even testing some tensor chipsets clocked at 5.1GHz & manufactured on a 3nm node, likely TSMC.

Coming to the Tensor G6, it will power the Pixel 11 series & is codenamed as 'Malibu'. Although other SoCs will already be built on 2nm chip design in 2026, Tensor G6 will still be manufactured on 3nm node (N3P) by TSMC .

CPU:

โ€ข 1x Cortex- X930
โ€ข 6x Cortex- A730

RAM: LPDDR5X
So, Tensor G6 will be a '7-core' configuration SoC

GPU:

Don't expect Google to ditch PowerVR GPU quite soon. Tensor G6 will have an IMG EXT GPU, having 3 CU (compute units) running at 1100Mhz. It will support virtualization & ray tracing, both.

Vivo starts Diwali in India with an iQOO Neo 7 Pro Explosion

A twitter user claimed that his iQOO Neo 7 Pro which still has 2 months warranty left blasted under 1yr from purchase.

His iQOO Neo 7 Pro received an update and while charging it started to heat. Upon disconnecting and after just 5 mins, it exploded, thus inaugurating the festival of Diwali in India.

As usual, Vivo India denied replacing the smartphone, blaming the user only for physical damage. However, after support from twitter users, Vivo finally agreed for a new replacement.

Xiaomi Joins Vivo for Diwali Celebrations with the Mi 10i 5G explosion at their own service center

A twitter user visited Xiaomi service center at 4D Square Mall in Ahmedabad to replace the battey of his Mi 10i 5G smartphone. However, when he put it on charging inside the authorized Xiaomi's service center only, the Mi smartphone blasted.

The Xiaomi India support twitter account obviously replied but I doubt that they will actually help the guy since his tweet isn't viral and he isn't getting support from twitter users either due to less views.
