US chipmaker Advanced Micro Devices said on Friday it will invest around $400 million in India over the next five years and will build its largest design center in the tech hub of Bengaluru. AMD’s announcement was made by its Chief Technology Officer Mark Papermaster at an annual semiconductor conference that started Friday in Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s home state of Gujarat. Other speakers at the flagship event include Foxconn Chairman Young Liu and Micron CEO Sanjay Mehrotra.

Apple likely stops signing iOS 15, blocks downgrade from iOS 15.0.1

Apple introduced iOS 15 late last month with a host of new features and improvements. The new iPhone operating system brought a revamped Safari, Live Text, and Visual Look Up, Focus, upgraded Apple Maps, among other features. While the new iOS comes pre-loaded with the latest iPhone 13 series, previous models gradually received the update following its official release. As per a report, Apple has ceased code signing for iOS 15, effectively blocking users from downgrading to the now out-of-date iOS version.

As per AppleInsider, the stoppage comes after Apple halted signing for iOS 14.8 and leaves the recently released iOS 15.0.1 as the only upgrade option. Apple issued iOS 15.0.1 in early October to address iPhone 13 hardware issues including a bug that prevented users from unlocking the handset with Apple Watch. Certain vulnerabilities, like a lock screen bypass, were also patched.

With the release of iOS 15, Apple is no longer forcing users to adopt the latest and greatest OS to access security updates.

Device owners who prefer to remain on iOS 14 are offered regular updates as part of a separate release track and will see two software update choices in Settings, one for the latest iOS 14 version with bug fixes and another for iOS 15.

While users on the iOS 15 track can update to iOS 15.0.1, those who remained on iOS 14 and did not install iOS 14.8 have no recourse but to wait for a subsequent security update from Apple.

On a related note, Apple has delayed the shipment of its latest wearable watch 7 series till December. As per a Bloomberg report, the company is facing problems with the production of its latest wearable, much like iPhone 13 models.
