Warning: OOS 15.0.0.863 (at least EU version) effectively disables bootloader unlocking. It is unknown if a future version will resolve this.

If you decide to upgrade to it while stock and locked, it is unlikely you will be able to bootloader unlock or flash YAAP.

In YAAP, we will pin abl, so this will not affect us.

What he meant is that rebooting to bootloader (fastbootd works) is broken; it flashes the bootloader screen, and boots back to the system.

This is just a bug as it was also present at some point with OnePlus 10T and OnePlus is not taking away anything, so stop crying

New Pixnapping Attack allows any Android app without permissions to leak info displayed by other apps exploiting Android APIs and a hardware side channel (CVE-2025-48561)
Pixnapping is not fixed and probably affects all Androids.
PoC: Not available yet.
Video demonstrates stealing 2FA codes from Google Authenticator. It's like taking screenshot. Pixnapping exploits a side channel that allows the malicious app to map the pixels at those coordinates to letters, numbers, or shapes.

Mozilla has started testing Firefox VPN, a free, browser-only virtual private network integrated directly into Firefox. This service routes user traffic through intermediary servers in various countries to mask IP addresses. It represents the first step in Mozilla’s initiative to embed additional privacy and security tools into the browser. The feature is currently in an early implementation phase and will undergo testing with a small group of randomly selected users in the US over the next few months.

Firefox VPN differs from Mozilla’s existing paid product, Mozilla VPN, which offers system-wide protection across up to five devices. The new browser-based version operates exclusively within Firefox and activates for the entire browser via a button in the address bar. Developers plan to add functionality that allows users to enable the VPN selectively for individual tabs or specific websites. Mozilla emphasizes that Firefox VPN remains a distinct, free offering limited to browser use.

Microsoft OneDrive is rolling out AI face recognition for your photos

You can turn the feature OFF, but only “three times a year,” and Microsoft hasn’t clarified what that actually means.

To disable (for now), go to the Privacy & Permissions → People section.

BREAKING: The Google Pixel 10 Pro Fold is Catastrophic Failure in Durability!

Google yapped during their awful Pixel 10 series launch event that Pixel 10 Pro Fold is the first folding smartphone to be IP68 dust & water resistant, a certification which even the Galaxy Z Fold 7 does not have. Thus Zack put the Pixel 10 Pro Fold in his durability tests and the dust particles easily went inside the hinge, indicating it was all just a LIE!

Not only that, Google also yapped about Pixel 10 Pro Fold being "their" most durable folding phone ever. However, Google did NOT learn a thing from its mistakes as Google put the antenna lines in the exact same position like their previous two folds (Pixel Fold and Pixel 9 Pro Fold) and both the previous pixel folding phones break apart.

What's more crazier is the fact that, when the Pixel 10 Pro Fold got cracked, it actually exploded!
According the Zack, none of the smartphones has ever exploded during his durability test in the past decade and Pixel 10 Pro Fold is the first smartphone to not only crack & fail his durability test but also explode!
