Qualcomm Won A Legal Dispute With Apple In China With Severe Consequences For Apple

Chipmaker Qualcomm has reported that a Chinese court has judged in its favor in a patent case against Apple in China, and a preliminary order has been issued prohibiting the import and sale of several iPhone models in China. This court decision thus makes impossible for the Chinese residents to buy iPhone 6S, 6S Plus, 7, 7 Plus, 8, 8 Plus and iPhone X models, even though it does not affect the phones launched this year, namely, the iPhone XR, XS, and XS Max.

The news has caused Apple’s shares to fall more than 2% at the opening of the market, while Qualcomm’s shares reacted with rises close to 4% at the beginning of the day.

The decision came from the Fuzhou Intermediate People’s Court in China, the same court that this year banned the import of some of the chips from the chipmaker Micron Technology in China.

Qualcomm Won A Legal Dispute With Apple In China

Qualcomm, which initially filed the case in China in late 2017, has received the court’s green light. The court decided that Apple has violated two of Qualcomm’s software patents to resize photographs and manage touch-screen applications.

“Apple continues to benefit from our intellectual property while refusing to compensate us,” said Don Rosenberg, general counsel for Qualcomm, in a statement. But because patents directly affect the software, Apple can make changes to its operating system to prevent patent infringement, so if the changes come, they can continue to sell their banned smartphones in the Asian country without an agreement with Qualcomm.

The patents that made the subject of the lawsuit are different from those both companies are disputing in other cases in their broad legal dispute. In fact, Qualcomm also asked the US regulators to ban the import of several iPhone models for patent reasons, but so far US officials have refused to do so.

iOS 12 Jailbreak for the iPhone XS Public Release with New Improvements

Earlier this month, Apple released to the public the new iOS 12. Since this occurred, hopes for a new jailbreak too for this latest piece of software began to rise inside the jailbreak community. Because Apple continued during these past few years to work on tightening the security around its software, jailbreaking has unfortunately become more and more difficult.

In a recent tweet, Min Zheng claimed that team Pangu succeeded to perform an iOS 12 jailbreak on the fresh iPhone XS. Considering the fact that the iPhone XS has been around for only about a week, this news took everyone by surprise. Min Zheng works for Alibaba, where he gets a salary as a security researcher.

According to the things featured in the aforementioned tweet, Pangu managed to achieve the iOS 12 jailbreak on the new Apple device by choosing to bypass the PAC mitigation which can be found on the A12 Bionic chipset. This processor has been incorporated in this year’s Apple models, running the iPhone XR, the iPhone XS and the XS Max as well.

Despite this relevant information, Zheng included in his tweet a couple of screenshots that show the root access on the iPhone XS, confirming what he said about the jailbreak. Since this was possible to perform, then it means that the same iOS 12 jailbreaks could be done on the iPhone XS Max as well, at least in theory, since both models are using the same kind of chipset.

It is quite possible that the reason why team Pangu didn’t already did this on the iPhone XS Max is simply that they didn’t gained access to the device yet. However, with the team’s history of putting jailbreaks in the public domain, this remains a matter of time.
