- Intel says move to 10-nanometer chips still on track for 2017 -
Intel posted a job listing on its website last month in which it
mentioned that mass production of products using its 10-nanometer
manufacturing technology would begin approximately two years from the
date the listing was posted (January 21, 2016). This caught the
attention of The Motley Fool's Ashraf Eassa who wrote a column on the
matter. It was of particular interested because in mid-2015, Intel
admitted that difficulties in the move to 10-nanometer had pushed the
first round of consumer products based on the advanced manufacturing
process back to the second half of 2017.
- Revisiting The Google Pixel C - Better, But Not There Yet -
The most
significant improvement with the updated firmware from Google is the
fix for broken touch input. I really cannot overstate just how broken
touch is on the Pixel C with its original shipping firmware, and the
updated version feels like a completely different device. It's honestly
like moving from a resistive touch display to a modern capacitive touch
display, and even then, one could argue that resistive touch displays
only had some of the problems that the Pixel C initially had. I think
it's safe to say that this issue with the Pixel C is completely
resolved, and that's a huge step toward making it a tablet that is worthy
of commanding its $500 price.

- New form of Android Malware that is spread via text messages -
A new form of Android malware has appeared in Europe that
is being spread via SMS messages. Danish company Heimdal Security, which
uncovered Mazar BOT, told the BBC that it has already spread to 100,000
devices in Denmark, although it's not clear how far it's reached beyond
the county's borders. The SMS messages in question contain a link,
claiming to be a multimedia message, that when clicked will prompt
users to download a malicious Android application package (APK) called
‘MMS Message.'
- World's First Flexible Smartphone With Bend Input - Researchers

- LG's Pen-Equipped Phone Earns a Sequel in the Stylus 2 - LG
has showed off another new handset ahead of Mobile World Congress, the Stylus 2,
a second act for last year's G4 Stylus. LG says the new stylus pen is

accompanying software is more refined.
- Smart phone sales for 2015 -
Gartner's figures for global smart phone sales were released today
and
one thing is clear: it doesn't look good for Windows phones. When we
last heard from Gartner, it was in the middle of November, 2015 and
Windows Phone was down to 1.7% of sales. Today, Gartners reports show
that just 1.1% of handsets sold in the fourth quarter of 2015 had
Windows installed on them. FYI, Android increased 16.6 percent.
- Apple to Start Accepting Android Phones As Trade-Ins - Apple
is making it easier to buy new iPhones by expanding the selection
of phones it will accept as trade-ins. The new program is called Trade
Up With Installments and lets people hand over an old phone when buying
a new iPhone. Apple will apply the credit of the old phone toward the
cost of a new phone and break up the payments for the new iPhone over a
24-month period. Apple will give $100 in credit for an iPhone 4 or 4s,
$200 for an iPhone 5, 5s, or 5c, $300 for an iPhone 6, or $350 for an
iPhone 6s, depending on the condition of the the trade. Apple will give
between $100 and $300 in credit for Android and Windows handsets that
are traded in. The 24-month financing plan includes Apple Care+ ($129).
People interested in upgrading need to visit Apple Stores to earn
credit toward a new iPhone. Trade Up With Installments kicks off today.
- Apple updates iOS to allow users with Error 53 to restore
their - A few weeks ago, iPhone users started reporting issues
with a mysterious 'Error 53', a message that would render their iPhone
useless. As it turned out, Error 53 was caused when third party repair
shops replaced, or repaired the TouchID sensor. Apple has
released an update that will allow users that have received the
error to restore their device through iTunes. Note that this update
will not re-enable TouchID.
- Judge Asks Apple to Help Unlock iPhone, Apple Balks - A
U.S. judge has ordered Apple to help the FBI unlock the iPhone owned by
the shooters in the terrorist attack that took place Dec. 2 in San
Bernardino, Calif. In a letter to customers, Cook
said the FBI is essentially requesting a backdoor into iPhones,
even if the agency says it will use the method only once on this
specific device. Once created, others would be able use the backdoor to
break into iPhones. Apple strongly believes consumers require and
deserve encryption and protection from those who might exploit the
treasure trove of data stored on their mobile device
- US Gov to Force Apple to Unlock iPhone - The U.S.
government has filed
motions looking for a court order that would force Apple to help
the FBI unlock an iPhone that belonged to the San Bernardino shooter.
Apple CEO Tim Cook, in a letter published earlier this week, said the
idea of breaking into the iPhone for the government was "chilling" and
"unprecedented" and could lead to a backdoor that would imperil
millions. The company has refused to unlock the device. Apple has
lukewarm support from Google, Microsoft, Facebook, and Twitter. It's
not clear how soon the court order may be issued, nor how quickly Apple
will be compelled to act.
- Apple: We tried to help FBI but someone changed iCloud

Federal investigators only found out about the reset after it had
occurred and that the county employee acted on his own, not on the
orders of federal authorities, the source said. Apple executives say
the iPhone was in the possession of the government when iCloud password
was reset
