MIUI 10 Global Beta 9.2.28 will add a “Game Booster” feature to Xiaomi phones

-

The Xiaomi Mi 9 was announced just a week ago, right before Mobile World Congress. The device is one of the first to feature Qualcomm’s first 7nm Snapdragon 855 mobile platform. The phone launched with Android 9 Pie-based MIUI 10.2 which includes a few new MIUI features like a dark mode, dynamic wallpaper, Reading Mode 2.0, Sunlight Mode 2.0, and Game Turbo. Game Turbo “predicts gaming scenes and intelligently allocates resources for complicated scenes,” which we assume will help users get the best performance in games like PUBG Mobile. Not to leave other Xiaomi devices out, it sounds like a similar feature will be making its way to a lot of other Xiaomi devices in the next MIUI 10 Global Beta.

An administrator of the official MIUI forum announced today that the next beta update, MIUI 10 Global Beta 9.2.28, will include a “Game Booster” feature (which sounds like the Xiaomi Mi 9’s Game Turbo). Here is the partial changelog that was shared:

Desktop:
Fixed: Notification badges were displayed incorrectly on the WhatsApp icon.

Game Booster:
Added: experience optimization function, supports to enter the game to turn off automatic brightness, three finger screenshot, eye protection mode.
Optimize the game toolbox callout mode to adjust to the top side.

From the changelog, it sounds like the feature will provide a helpful way to tune some settings without leaving a game (automatic brightness and night mode. It’ll also let you take a screenshot without moving your fingers away from the screen. We aren’t sure exactly how Game Booster will optimize the device as it claims, though. This update will begin rolling out tomorrow. Once it does, we’ll let you know which devices it rolls out for and what the full changelog will be.

Motorola’s foldable Razr phone may be announced before year’s end

-
While Samsung’s saga with the Galaxy Fold appears to finally be coming to an end , there are other foldables destined to be released soon. The Huawei Mate X is the other big name, but it has been delayed a couple of times as well. The other foldable device that we’ve heard about a few times is the rumored Motorola Razr reboot, and a new report claims an announcement is coming this year still. Earlier this year, reports suggested Motorola would launch its foldable phone this summer. That time has come and gone without a peep from Motorola, but a new report claims it’s still coming this year. This information comes from a person close to the company speaking to CNET . It’s unlikely that the device will actually be sold this year, but we should at least see the device before 2020. Motorola has already confirmed that they are working on a foldable smartphone. The “Razr” name was also confirmed by a Bluetooth certification. We exclusively reported on the specifications of the device ,...

Behind Dynamic System Updates in Android Q: How Google is using Project Treble to improve future Android releases

-
Image
Alongside the release of Android 8.0 Oreo, Google unveiled Project Treble : a major rearchitecting in the way the Android OS framework and the vendor HALs and Linux kernel communicate. Treble is a major initiative designed to reduce Android platform version and security patch fragmentation , and all Android-branded devices launching with Android Pie are required to support Project Treble. OEMs and vendors test Treble compatibility by booting a Generic System Image (GSI)—a pure stock build of Android from AOSP—and passing the Vendor Test Suite (VTS) and Compatibility Test Suite-on-Generic System Image (CTS-on-GSI). The GSI has proven useful in not only allowing software engineers working for OEMs test Treble compatibility, but it has also opened the door for a large custom ROM community on XDA. For the Android Q release, Google wants to make GSIs useful for another group: app developers. Since the first stable release and source code drop of any given Android platform release usual...
