Finally Something New in Android ROM Development — Project Lindroid
Erfan Abdi, an Android, Linux, and GSI tool developer has released Lindroid for using Linux on your Android smartphones
Although it might seem like a reverse WayDroid, this app allows you to run fully hardware-accelerated Linux inside a container on your device. Lindroid has support for GPU acceleration, it can access the real native hardware and supports multi-display and multi-input. It's even compatible with Android desktop mode.
Lindroid can run known Linux operating systems such as Ubuntu Touch (lomiri), Droidian (phosh), and even Plasma Mobile. Its default and recommended compositor is KWin but it also has experimental x11 display support.
Root is required along with some small patches on AOSP. There are also plans to make a Magisk Module.
The project is fully open-source and it will be available in Erfan's LibreMobileOS under project ulumo.

Google is testing a 1-click solution to run Chrome OS in a virtual machine on Pixel devices.
They're making a new app called "Ferrochrome launcher" that automatically downloads, configures, and launches an ARM64 build of Chromium OS using the VM launcher app.
Currently, you have to manually compile and configure everything yourself. Plus, currently doing this requires rooting your device, but that might not be fully necessary soon (will need to test this though).
(Ferrochrome is the code-name for the project to run Chrome OS in a VM on Android)

US government sues Adobe for ‘deceiving’ subnoscriptions that are too hard to cancel
The lawsuit alleges Adobe hides the terms of its annual, paid monthly plan in the “fine print and behind optional textboxes and hyperlinks,” because of which they do not properly disclose the early termination fee incurred upon cancellation “that can amount to hundreds of dollars.”
Customers who try to cancel experience difficulties such as navigating through multiple webpages and pop-ups, and dropped calls or disconnected chats. The lawsuit also targets two Adobe executives, Maninder Sawhney (sales), as well as David Wadhwani (digital media).

Adobe trapped customers into year-long subnoscriptions through hidden early termination fees and numerous cancellation hurdles. Americans are tired of companies hiding the ball during subnoscription signup and then putting up roadblocks when they try to cancel.

Telecom operators in India started limited trials of Caller ID service to curb spam calls
The Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (TRAI) in November 2022 proposed a Calling Name Presentation (CNAP) to allow users to identify incoming callers by displaying their number and their name as well.
This initiative is similar to Truecaller & seeks to reduce spam & fraud calls.
Now, some telecom operators in Mumbai and Haryana have begun trials for caller ID services in response to Govt. & TRAI pressure
However, telecom operators have expressed concerns about the mandatory implementation of CNAP.
Jio cautioned against mandatory adoption, citing potential technical challenges such as increased load on signaling & possible impacts on latency & interconnection-related issues.
Airtel highlighted “techno-commercial challenges” & the need for CNAP to comply with privacy laws.
Meanwhile, Vodafone-Idea suggested that CNAP should be offered as an optional service rather than a mandatory one.

Man in India gets Apple AirPods engraved with Micromax logo to prevent theft
Apple AirPods in India are considered premium and currently sell for 150$.
Thus, a 23-year-old guy in Delhi NCR bought his first AirPods with a fist bump emoji resembling the logo of Micromax (an Indian brand) engraved on the AirPods case to deter thieves.
“I used to live in NCR when I bought these AirPods. Many of my friends had their devices stolen there. I have even seen phones of bystanders being snatched by goons on a bike one time in broad daylight,”

Samsung Galaxy S25 Series to be powered by Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 instead of Samsung Exynos 2500
Acc. to Analyst and famous Apple Leaker Ming-Chi Kuo, Qualcomm will likely be the sole SoC supplier for the Samsung Galaxy S25 series coming in 2025.
With the Galaxy S24 series, Snapdragon chips were used in 40% of the model wherein the Galaxy S24 Ultra was equipped with Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 irrespective of the region
Samsung Exynos 2500 or the Dream Chip may not be able to ship in the Galaxy S25 series due to low yield issues and very little time left now, approx just 6 months, to make the yields better
Thus to prevent a disaster like Exynos 2200, Samsung might delay the Dream chip release manufactured on its 3nm GAA architecture
Note: Take this news with a grain of salt because there are still very less chances that the yield might increase in this less time and Exynos 2500 would debut with the Galaxy S25 series only
