Android M ; new version of andriod

Android "M" is the working title of an upcoming release of the Android mobile operating system. First unveiled atGoogle I/O on May 28, 2015, Android "M" will focus primarily on incremental improvements and other feature additions.[1]

FeaturesEdit

Android "M" introduces a redesigned permission model: there are now only eight permission categories, and applications are no longer automatically granted all of their specified permissions at installation time. An opt-in system is now used, in which users are prompted to grant or deny individual permissions to an application when they are needed, such as accessing the camera or microphone. Applications remember their permission grants, and they can be adjusted by the user at any time. Only the applications compiled for Android "M" using its SDK will use the new permission framework, while all other applications will continue to use the previous permissions model.[1][2]
Android "M" provides native support forfingerprint recognition, allowing the use of fingerprints for unlocking devices and authenticating Play Store and Android Pay purchases; a standard API is also available for implementing fingerprint-based authentication in other applications. A new power management scheme known as "doze" reduces a device's background activity when the operating system detects that the device is not physically handled. Android "M" supports USB Type-C, including the ability to instruct devices to charge another device over USB. Android "M" also introduces "verified links" that can be configured to open directly in their specified application without further user prompts.[1][2]Android "M" also has native support for the 64-bit ARMv8 architecture.

ReleaseEdit

The Android "M" developer preview was released on May 28, 2015, for theNexus 5 and Nexus 6 phones, theNexus 9 tablet, and the Nexus Playerset-top box, under the build number MPZ44Q.[1][3]

SDK and APIsEdit

The Android "M" developer tools are available in the SDK Manager under API level "MNC".

Rumours about Hudawi p20 and p20 plus

Huawei P20 and it will come in three versions (at least). And the top model of the three will sport a notch, similar to the iPhone X. Its screen bezels are nearly non-existent, all except the bottom one are razor thin. The fingerprint reader is on the back, below the camera (more on that in a second). And the top bezel features a notch to accommodate the earpiece, selfie camera and sensors. Huawei has already demoed its own FaceID-like tech (that will be better than Apple’s, company officials say). That’s not visible on the schematic though and there doesn’t seem to be much room, but who knows. Schematics: Huawei P20 • Huawei P20 Plus • Huawei P20 Pro Anyway, back to the camera – or should we say  the triple camera . It’s positioned vertically and it runs down the middle of the phone. On the Huawei P20 and P20 Plus the camera is in a different position – off to the left on the Plus and rotated 90° on the vanilla model. Both have a fingerprint reader on ...
Whatsapp new privacy policy  WhatsApp has always made huge promises of safeguarding privacy, whether through the introduction of end-to-end encryption or through its promise of no compromise with privacy following its acquisition by Facebook. The sweeping changes to its privacy policy announced yesterday naturally came as a huge shock to its users. The chief changes being made are that WhatsApp will now share customer information with Facebook, in order to provide targeted ads and better friend suggestions, and with other third parties to allow businesses to communicate with users. WhatsApp has given its users a time limit of 30 days to opt-out of the new privacy policy. While the sudden announcement seems like a U-turn on every promise ever made by WhatsApp, the change is unfortunately legal. WhatsApp can now share all information collected with anyone Two years ago when WhatsApp was acquired by Facebook, WhatsApp put up a blogpost which assured its users that the acquisi...
