Huawei: the US is bullying us and we're working with Google to resolve the matter

22 May 2019
However, Huawei doesn't blame Google.

Sort by:

The Google ban is the least of their worries now that ARM has cancelled all of their licences.

    Mr Trump's local manufacturing plan would be brilliant if not for several things:
    1)Where's Motorola now? Huh? Correct - the Texas facility is no more, the brand belongs to Lenovo now. Let's ban Lenovo next :P
    2)The only thing Tim Apple does (or did several yrs ago) stateside is *assembling* iMacs. Is all. Designing and development means NOTHING without a reliable source of assembly labour.
    I understand that the govt forces (Trump backer part of them at least) really feel like kicking greedy U.S. mfrs with cheapskate Chinese outsorcing right in the behind. But it never works so easily. They won't agree to change their ways right away -- but yarr China man bad, so here's that :P Also, China is indeed in more power than we could think. No one ever told us whether Huawei is silently ODMing for other companies as well... They could :) and what now?

      Kingslayer, 23 May 2019I feel bad for Huawei. They're not among my favorite brands... moreAs if we care? Haha

        Adoron, 23 May 2019Stealing IP? Then sue Huawei. Banning them? That's overkill... moreYou saw what sueing can do to large companies right? These companies have massive money reserve, and tons of lawyers.

        They can just throw money in your face, delay the issue indefinitely, and do whatever they want.

        And see how this ban is issued? They found no fault with existing devices, but they fear the future devices, So the ban is on all future devices.

        And on top of that.. ARM and Google.. means they can't even make SoC.. And how about those huawei laptops... man.. this banning is still not done. Next will be Microsoft / Intel's turn.

          NotAnOpinion, 23 May 2019Stealing and cloning IPs not bad now? How about what China ... moreYou are letting everyone see how dense you are.

          China can do whatever they want on their turf. Those US companies you named cannot operate in China, but they can operate elsewhere in the world. China is not stopping them.

          US's crazy ban on Huawei means that they cannot sell phones all over the world, not only in the US. If US banned import of Huawei phones, ok I have no complaints. But now, the ban is WORLDWIDE.

          Do you understand the difference now?

            And also, despite these accusations, US is yet to provide hard evidence which means ban decision can be legally challenged in the US court as anti competition.

              gollygeewillikers, 23 May 2019Okay, I'll take that, sure. But much of the debacle is what... moreFrom my understanding, banning Huawei over "what they could do" instead of something that they do that is proven is purely political, even if we say it's for national security. And a political decision that is not evidence based (e.i pure accusations) can be overturned legally by the court (as what is expected to a court that obeys the rule of law). The legal court is like the check and balance of the executive branch (president). As far as I know, anything deemed unconstitutional that the government does will work in favor of the private organization like Huawei.

                      Things Huawei needs to do now


                      Since they are banned from using ARM:

                      1.Huawei can develop brand new processor based on
                      RISC-V Architecture,though it will take time,but
                      definitely possible through a lot of capital and time

                      Since they are banned from using Android:

                      2.They are already working hard on HongMeng OS
                      based on Linux, just add Android Run Time and we
                      are good to go

                      3.Bundle the phone with third party app stores

                      Last thing to do and the most difficult thing probably,

                      CONVINCE GOOGLE to release a RISC-V Build of Android,yes this is the most difficult step ever!!!

                        So it took one president to (still trying) take down one company from China.

                          Thab33f, 23 May 2019Bruh, it never got caught spying. It was only accused of sp... moreOkay, I'll take that, sure. But much of the debacle is what they "could" do with the infrastructure they are building, with state money, and backdoor hardware, it seems to me that enough countries are concerned that spying is a real possibility, and that there's more to the story than we will see in the media. Otherwise why all the fuss?

                            I feel like Huawei and the US need to strike a deal. If Huawei goes under, we'll be looking at a Cold War 2: Electric Boogaloo

How about what China has done to American's companies that haven't done sh1t like Facebook, Instagram, Google, etc? Where is your outcry to that wrong that Communist China has done to them?

                                  Get over it yourself. Huawei deserves this and more!

                                    gollygeewillikers, 23 May 2019Huawei got caught spying. Simple as that. Japanese company ... moreBruh, it never got caught spying. It was only accused of spying, but even after dozens of investigations no backdoors or any form of spying was found. There wear backdoors found in American (Cisco) equipment though

                                      Huawei got caught spying. Simple as that. Japanese company Toshiba was caught spying in the 1990's and suffered a similar fate. The US ban is not unjustified. It does suck for their smartphone arm, no denying that.
