Despite the Apple iOS Update, Qualcomm Says Apple Is Still In Violation. Apple Continue To Sell iPhones In China.

Apple today released an iOS 12.1.2 update that might include the promised OS tweaks for staying clear of Qualcomm patents in China, but Qualcomm says that despite the software update, Apple is still violating the Chinese court's order. On the other hand Apple has not confirmed iOS 12.1.2 include these corrective patches, yet.
In conversation with Reuters, Qualcomm said that Apple continues to "flout the legal system" by violating the injunction and releasing misleading statements about the ruling.
"Despite Apple's efforts to downplay the significance of the order and its claims of various ways it will address the infringement, Apple apparently continues to flout the legal system by violating the injunctions. Apple's statements following the issuance of the preliminary injunction have been deliberate attempts to obfuscate and misdirect," Don Rosenberg, Qualcomm's general counsel, told Reuters in a statement on Monday.

Apple last week said that "based on the iPhone models" currently offered in China, that it believed it was in compliance with the court's order, but a software update was planned anyway to address "the minor functionality of the two patents at issue in the case."
Apple also mentioned last week that if the ban is ultimately upheld, it will cause "truly irreparable harm to Apple and other companies," costing millions of dollars a day.
