**Chrome Finally Fixes a Bug- 13 Years Later!**

OxygenOS and Realme UI are being discontinued on future devices in favor of ColorOS globally. OnePlus’s after sales support in India has already been folded into OPPO’s service network. To aggressively cut down on R&D costs, OPPO has made the decision to axe both OxygenOS and Realme UI entirely. A sad demise for a software skin that was once considered the best in the market...

Google has been fined $4.67 billion. Regulators said the company abused Android’s market position by requiring phone makers to pre-install Google Search and Chrome as part of its licensing agreements.

Some useless stats for you all: Previous versions of Android were considerably lenient when it came to PIN and password guesses. Android 16 allowed up to 10 guesses in the first minute, 20 within six minutes, 50 within 25 minutes, 110 over 24 hours, and as many as 1,800 guesses across five years. Starting with Android 16 QPR2, the policy has now become much stricter, with devices now allowing only six guesses in the first minute, seven within six minutes, eight within 25 minutes, 12 over 24 hours, and just 19 guesses across five years. After 20 incorrect attempts, no further guesses are permitted.

Was planning to purchase Fire TV stick and came across this... So thought of sharing it with you all: The Amazon Fire TV Stick 4K "Select" now runs on Linux based VegaOS and hence only supports apps from Amazon App Store. As a result, it does not support Android applications, APKs, or traditional sideloading. Though, it is the cheaper of the two... If you're looking for Android based Fire TV, then go for the Amazon Fire TV Stick 4K "Plus" as it is still based on Android, and supports native Android functionality, such as sideloading APKs... it is slightly more costly... PS: Prices of both of them have dropped during this Amazon Prime Day Sale...

Google will now verify if you're a human by turning on your webcam and asking you to wave your hand😳 According to Google: The videos are never associated with a user's identity and are deleted after the verification process. Audio is never recorded. Google does not retain any images or videos of a user's hand gestures beyond the verification process or use the data for any other purpose. Videos or images are automatically deleted after the challenge is complete.
