LG V30 will have a second year of warranty in the U.S.


After leaks and pre-announcements, the LG V30 was made official at this year's IFA conference. However, availability and price were not announced at the event, leaving potential buyers curious as to when the phone would be available. We now know that it'll be arriving on October 5.

AT&T, T-Mobile, and Verizon have already announced their availability for the V30, but in a press release LG said the V30 and V30+ will be available from all major carriers within the next two weeks. Still unknown at this time is any sort of unlocked offering. Availability, color, and price will vary from carrier to carrier. The only difference between the V30 and the V30+ is the former includes 64GB of internal storage, while the latter includes 128GB. It's not clear which carriers will get the V30+, but it's looking like either Verizon or Sprint, or both.

LG is also stepping up its warranty game with the release of the V30. Instead of the standard one year of warranty coverage, the V30 and V30+ will be eligible for LG's Second Year Promise which equals out to a full two years of support. It began with the G6 earlier this summer, and is most likely an attempt to ease customer fears after previous LG devices faced bootloop defects. The one caveat is that customers will need to register for the additional year of warranty support, rather than automatically have the support with their purchase. From LG Electronics' Chang Ma:
We are so confident in the V30's quality, that in addition to the manufacturer's first year limited warranty, we are now offering free second year coverage upon registration. Plus, enjoy a service experience that gets you a replacement phone quickly. That's LG's promise to you.

Time will tell if LG is able to support the devices for the full two years, but it's a nice gesture. LG also said that it will bundle the updated version of Google's Daydream VR headset with select V30s, which may be why the company is waiting until after Google's October 4 event to release the phone.

CREDENTIAL HARVESTING VIA MITM – BURP SUITE TUTORIAL

Image
    In this step by step tutorial we will discuss some of the more advanced use cases for the Burp Suite.  Credential harvesting through Man In The Middle attack vectors can be your saving grace during an otherwise uneventful penetration test. This guide is intended to be educational as well as entertaining.  The author does not condone or encourage illegal hacking activities. ENABLE ROUTING     The first thing you’ll want to do is enable your attacking machine to route traffic.  This way, when your victim machine makes a request to an external HTTP server you will forward the request and intercept the server’s response.  This behavior is necessary for credential harvesting attacks. If it helps, you can think of yourself as an interception proxy much like the one we are using in this tutorial. $ echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward #ProTip  When you try this on your own and things inevitably don’t work as easily as I have described them, check this first!

Kotlin/Native IDE Support Preview

Image
Kotlin/Native is  a brand new technology  that compiles Kotlin directly to machine code and produces executables that can run without a virtual machine. At KotlinConf 2017, we announced a preview release of development tools for Kotlin/Native. While we have IntelliJ IDEA for working with Kotlin, Kotlin/Native integrates with technologies from the native world such as Clang and LLDB support. That’s why JetBrains’ choice for Kotlin/Native is  CLion , our IDE for C and C++. To get started, download and install  CLion 2017.3  (note that this version is at the early access preview stage for now). Next, install two plugins from the JetBrains  Plugin Repository . In CLion, choose  Configure → Plugins → Install JetBrains plugin… , then find Kotlin and Kotlin/Native plugins there, and install them. Don’t forget this is still a technology preview and bugs are possible, but if you encounter any, please  report them ! New Kotlin/Native Project Learning a new technology requires a good
