Donald Trump has threatened to impose additional US tariffs of 100% on China from next month, accusing Beijing of “very hostile” moves to restrict exports of rare earths needed for American industry.

Wall Street fell sharply after the US president reignited public tensions with the Chinese government, and raised the prospect of another acrimonious trade war between the world’s two largest economies.

Late on Friday, the president threatened to ratchet them back up by imposing a 100% tariff on goods from China “over and above” any existing tariffs. This would happen on 1 November “or sooner”, he said, hinting that the move could be accelerated should Chinese officials opt to retaliate.

The US will also introduce export controls on “any and all critical software”, he added.

 

For the past couple of months, the billionaire father-son duo of Larry and David Ellison have been making deals involving major media brands. Having acquired Paramount, the parent company of CBS News, they appointed Bari Weiss – an outspoken supporter of Israel – as the network’s editor-in-chief. The moves by the Ellisons are not just about growing their media empire, but about shaping the narrative around Israel in the US, where public support continues to decline.

One of the changes in this release should result in Google Messages RCS working for users receiving a verification error caused by Play Store checking for an emulator with an easy to bypass check. It was already working for many users without this but this should get it working for everyone else.

2025100901 provides at least the full 2025-11-01 patch level and the Android 2025-11-05 patch level (Pixel Update Bulletin could have fixes we don't get early) but will remain marked as providing 2025-10-05.

Android Security Bulletin (ASB) for October 2025 is empty:

https://source.android.com/docs/security/bulletin/2025-10-01

However, you can see Samsung has a list of ASB patches for their October 2025 release exclusive to flagships:

https://security.samsungmobile.com/securityUpdate.smsb

It's a small subset of the December 2025 patches.

Android now discloses patches around 3 months prior to their inclusion in a bulletin requiring them to raise the Android security patch level. However, OEMs are allowed to ship the patches as soon as they're receive. We're doing this in our security preview release, but with the full set of patches.

Our initial security preview release on September 25th with the November/December patches included 1 Critical severity patch and 54 High severity patches, which is the full subset applicable to Android 16. In the past couple days, 5 patches applicable to Android 16 were added and 1 was retracted.

December 2025 patches from the past couple days have been included and the January 2026 preview is now available.

Our next release coming today provides a choice to use our security preview releases in the initial setup wizard with a notification for existing users. Opting into it is recommended.

https://discuss.grapheneos.org/d/27068-grapheneos-security-preview-releases provides more information on our security preview releases. The reason we're providing both regular and security preview releases is because we're required to wait to the embargo end date to publish the source code for the patches in the future bulletins.
