China's ZTE may lose Android license

The U.S. Commerce Department banned American firms on Monday from selling parts and software to ZTE for seven years. The move was sparked by ZTE's violation of an agreement that was reached after it was caught illegally shipping U.S. goods to Iran.

This ban means American companies like Dolby and Qualcomm won’t be able to export any parts to ZTE for up to seven years. The report doesn't specify what Android software Google is barred from selling to ZTE. The Android operating system is open source, which would make a ban unlikely. Even in that case, ZTE could use Android's source code to create a modified OS. Alternately, Commerce Department's ban could apply to Google's Mobile Services suite of apps, which most notably includes the Google Play Store.

Zenfone Max Pro M1 will have a 5,000 mAh battery, "pure" Android Oreo

The phone will live up to its name with a 5,000 mAh battery, which should last a long, long time with the 14nm Snapdragon 636 chipset.
The phone will feature a 6” screen with an 18:9 aspect ratio and will run “pure Android Oreo”, though we’re not 100% sure if this means Android One or not. The memory will feature up to 6 GB of RAM and up to 64 GB storage (suggesting a 4 GB / 32 GB version). The good news is that there will be three card slots – two for SIMs and one for a microSD.

India vows to fix cash crunch as ATMs run empty — again

India vows to fix cash crunch as ATMs run empty — again.
--

  • Less than 18 months after Prime Minister Narendra Modi announced a ban on high-denomination banknotes, India's government was forced into damage limitation mode on Tuesday after reports emerged that some ATMs in the country were running dry.
  • The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) said late Tuesday that regional shortages of cash were likely "largely due to logistical issues of replenishing ATMs frequently."

Tamil Nadu governor Banwarilal Purohit apologises to woman journo for “pat on cheek”

Washed my face many times, says journalist after TN governor pats her on the cheek

On Tuesday evening, Tamil Nadu Governor Banwarilal Purohit was wrapping up a press conference.

He'd been speaking to reporters about recent allegations that a college professor tried to convince women students to take academic and financial assistance from Madurai Kamaraj University officials, in exchange for sexual favours.

As the press meet drew to a close, Lakshmi Subramanian, a journalist, asked him a question.

His response, she said, was to pat her on the cheek - "patronisingly, and without consent."

Subramanian said she washed her face several times.

"Still not able to get rid of it," she wrote in a tweet.
