Show HN: Zalando checkout proces is broken beyond repair http://ift.tt/2yw5wAx

Show HN: Zalando checkout proces is broken beyond repair I had to share this : I am trying to order some clothing from https://Zalando.com ( big in Europe ) and I can't complete the checkout proces. The shipping address form is faulty and is throwing JS errors. Can't continue. So I call customer support, they are aware of it, the workaround is to go to your profile and add a shipping address there. The issue has been known for a couple of weeks now. I find it hilarious to find such an error on a website from such a big brandname. November 13, 2017 at 04:38PM

Google loosens grip on Android One partners in attempt to revitalize the program

Bloomberg Android One never really got anywhere, but Google isn’t giving up. Since its launch back at Google I/O 2014 , the low-cost Android One initiative was never the saving grace we had all once hoped it would be. The program promised solid Android-powered hardware, timely software updates straight from Google, a simple and easy to use software experience, and even more ways to save on high data costs . As it turns out, not many people were interested in these One devices, as the lower-cost competition began heating up in these countries, often offering users better devices for the money. Now that it’s been awhile since we’ve seen any new Android One hardware, what’s next for the program? According to The Wall Street Journal , Google is taking another crack at it. Sourcing “people familiar with the matter”, this new report claims that Google plans to relax its rules and give Android One partners more options when it comes to choosing features and price. Google is being ...

A Google Engineer is reviewing all USB Type-C chargers on Amazon to inform customers which ones are safe for use on their devices

The USB Type-C take over has already started, and as this year comes to an end, we expect to see a few more smartphones and tablets hit the market bundling compatibility for the third-generation connection. As it stands, handsets that currently feature Type-C ports only ship with a single cable and that annoyingly doesn’t support computer connectivity, so if users want to transfer files to their devices, they have to purchase an additional wire or adapter. However, these accessories aren’t cheap, so customers veer towards the more affordable, third-party cables readily available on marketplaces, such as Amazon and eBay, but that’s not a good thing. Many consumers have reported that these chargers have caused harm to their handsets, so Google Engineer Benson Leung has taken it upon himself to purchase a selection of Type-C connectors from Amazon to test and see if they meet the standard specifications for use on his Nexus device. So far, Leung has been through seven cables and clai...

New Android vulnerability puts 100 million devices at risk

Android has another vulnerability, this time through Play Store applications. The vulnerability comes from Baidu, China’s Google, and has risked over 100 million Android devices to hackers. The new malicious virus has already found its way into over 14,000 Android applications. Four thousand in which were created by Baidu. Most dangerously, anyone accessing the Android SDK to develop an app can unintentionally swallow up the virus within their app. This is because the SDK allows apps to open an HTTP server connection that is unsecured thus allowing it to run commands on your device. These can include but are not limited to, installing malicious virus software and stealing information. For those of you who are rooted, the scenario is even worse because you won’t be notified when an unsecure app installs. Baidu has temporarily helped fix the problem, but is yet to completely resolve it. We’ll keep you updated when we hear more. Source: Trend Micro Via: E...
