What We're Expecting for the Honor Magic 2 Launch - Honor Magic 2 Guides, News, & Discussion

The original Honor Magic first showed up in December of 2016 and was one of Honor's less-popular phones. This could be due to the limited availability, or maybe it was a misunderstood phone. The Honor Magic was a more significant phone than you might remember and that's why I'm really excited for the Honor Magic 2. The Honor Magic was actually the first AI phone to ever hit the market. These days you'll see most flagship phones taking advantage of some sort of version of AI technology, but the Magic did it before all of them. This set the groundwork for the Honor 10, Honor View 10, Honor Play, and Honor 8X, which all use the same AI technology.

Now with the Honor Magic 2 on the way, we could see another evolution of their AI system. They teased a new AI assistant called "Yoyo" at the 8X launch event. Since then we haven't received any further information on it, but I expect it will have a lot to add to the current state of digital assistants.
They've also shown us a bit of the new pop-up camera which gets rid of any need for a notched display. We have seen this design implemented into other devices since then, but we still don't know the full details of how this function will work.
The launch date for the Honor Magic 2 is set for October 31st in Beijing. This new phone will undoubtedly set the groundwork for new technologies for future Honor phones. We will learn more about the specs and price at the launch, which so far have been kept a secret.
A few details about the new phone have leaked. We know that it will feature six cameras with three on the back and three on the front. There will also be a curved 2K AMOLED display which is a rare thing to see in an Honor device. The exterior of the Honor Magic 2 will have similar curves as the Mate 20. We also have a look at the color options for the phone.
We will be covering the event live on our Facebook page. Make sure you check it out at 7AM ET.

Windows Phone 7 DRM for Apps Cracked with Proof of Concept Program [Video]

Security is an important aspect of anything that gets used by anyone, at any given moment around the world. For developers of applications that get purchased through a digital storefront, like Microsoft’s Windows Phone 7 Marketplace, making sure that it’s not easy, next to impossible in fact, to steal apps and put them on a device free-of-charge is just as important. But, as WPCentral reports, it looks like the Digital Rights Management (DRM) security tools set in place by Microsoft have been cracked!

Fortunately, though, the program that is being used to do so is not known to the general public. In point of fact, the “white hat” developer that created it is just showing it as a proof of concept. If the program were to make it out into the world, then it would be possible for some people out there to strip the DRM from applications available in the Windows Phone 7 Marketplace, and then download them for free.
As of the time of this writing, Microsoft hasn’t made an official comment regarding the security hole. WPCentral has been in contact with Brandon Watson from Microsoft, but so far they have not heard back from him. The video demonstrating the proof of concept program making short work of DRM for the Windows Phone 7 applications can be viewed below.

I hope they fix this security hole soon. I'm not even a developer and I see this as a really big problem for the WP7 platform. I'm sure iPhone and Android developers do not have to be as worried about pirating only because the volume of paying customers is so much higher. With a much smaller customer base, anything that would discourage a WP7 developer from developing for the platform is bad for WP7.
Note: Shouldn't this be posted in the WP7 General forum? It has nothing to do with HD7.
is this video realy evidense that this is working?

Honor Magic 2 or Honor View 20? "Save the Date" Poster Leaked

I just received this promotional graphic from Honor. The poster shows a "save-the-date" teaser for January 22 2019 in Paris. What kind of surprise could Honor have in store for us this time? I have no other additional information on this subject, but I suspect this could be Honor bringing the Magic 2 or View 20 to China and other countries.
We know that Honor has always released a new phone at the end of the year. The Honor View 10 was announced in December of 2017 and launched in January 2018. This could be a similar situation. There's also the possibility that this event has something to do with the Honor 11. George Zhao (Honor Executive) did confirm that Honor will be releasing the Honor View 20 and Honor 11 sometime in 2019. The exact release dates are unknown.
If they do announce the Honor View 20 at this event, we have an idea of what we can expect due to a few leaks.
​This leak has surfaced showing the display of the Honor View 20 featuring a water drop notch. The new phone will ship with the Kirin 980 chipset and 6GB of RAM. We will probably also see 40W charging come to the View 20, and you can expect it to ship with Android Pie and EMUI 9.0. The Price will most likely stay under $600 like its predecessor.
What do you think this could mean? Leave your thoughts in the comments.
Honor new smartphone coming on January 22. What it will be?:laugh:

If my guess is correct its Honor View 20
What about the nova 4 with infinity-O screen? They have to beat Samsung to the punch.
Its the Honor View 20.
I am so glad, I was very close to buying the magic 2 and about to settle on the fact I would be paying massive import charges from China, but now this phone has been announced and will have a global release (and in my opinion better in every aspect over the magic 2).

Android 12 is probably coming to Moto Edge 2020

Hi everyone, like you I have a Moto Edge 2020 (The one with the SD765G 6GB/128GB), I know most of you were upset after the official motorola A12 update list and not seeing our phone in that list.
While I read most of the forums, I found that in an official Lenovo forum, a developer said that there are no plans on releasing Android 12 on Moto Edge 2020
As of today (February 1st 2022), I sent a mail to Motorola España/Latinoamérica to get further information about the update rollout of Android 12, and to know if the Motorola Edge will be receiving that update.
They answered pretty quickly and said:

"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Which translated to english states:
Given the technical information at our disposal, your Motorola Edge "at the moment will stay on Android 11. It's programmed to receive security updates. It's planned to update the device to Android 12, but there is not exact date for that yet"
So it may seem that they WILL be updating the Moto Edge to Android 12, but not yet. I personally don't fall for that, but at least is some kind of hope.
One of the main reasons I want A12 is because of how buggy A11 is.
Have you tried using the Edge Triggers on moto gametime? After using them, the edge screen sensibility goes up to the clouds and the only way to fix that is to reboot the phone. There is plenty of bugs and things to fix on A11 that I think the best they can do is to release A12 as the final update and with future bugfixes make that the definitive (or at least trying to) version for Motorola Edge.
Let me know your thoughts this is my first XDA post ever, I hope you find it useful
nice news, sad how they butchered the edge display with android 11, i really like moto edge, but i got green tint, and was too lazy to send it back XD

Can ChatGPT be trusted?

Okay, so I asked ChatGPT what constellation the moon was in on my birth date. I'm pretty sure the answer is wrong or am I missing something.

}
And then I checked LunarPhase Pro and Starry Night Pro Plus for accuracy and here is what I got.
LunarPhase Pro tells me that the moon was a waning gibbous phase and not a full moon.
So can ChatGPT be trusted?
Definitely malware...
Even if OpenAI is constantly working to fine tune ChatGPT, keep in mind that it and other language models can provide false information when answering questions, as AI tools are not flawless, and it's no replacement for human interaction or verified sources of information.
I logged into Chat GPT last night to ask random questions. I found out the ChatGPT has an Atheist mind for one thing. But then I told it that it was stupid because it told me that the moon goes through many constellation in any given day. ChatGPT responded with an apology and told me that it takes about two and one half days on average for the moon to pass through a constellation. It then told me that it would correct it's database so the mistake would not happen again. So apparently ChatGPT learns as it grows.
I'm going to ask it why it told me that the moon was full on my birth date and in Sagittarius when both Starry Night Pro and LunarPhase Pro tells me that the moon was a waning Gibbous in Libra. I'm interested in seeing if it can correct itself there too.
So I greeted ChatGPT with an insult to see how it would react because it tells me that as an AI logarithm it is incapable of feeling emotions. Yet when I called it a retard, it acted as though it was offended and reminded me that I was not being polite. LOL!
I asked ChatGPT if it or Bard would be the better learning AI machine and here was it's response.
So I am thinking that Bard will get the edge on this market if they spend the resources. Personally I would like to see this technology added to the Google Assistant.
I prefer to use ChatSonic because in contrast to ChatGPT, ChatSonic also has access to the Internet and can therefore also retrieve current information and events - a feature that is currently not available in ChatGPT! ChatGPT is great but limited to 2021 info.
