Developers port Android 10 to the Xiaomi Redmi Note 4, Redmi 6 Pro, OnePlus 5/5T, LG V30, and Samsung Galaxy Tab S5e

-

Android 10 updates are now underway for several devices, either officially or unofficially. The latest version of Android was officially released early this month, and if you have a recent Pixel, OnePlus or Xiaomi device, then you may already be running the latest and greatest from Google. If you haven’t yet, then an update may be underway and is set to come to your phone in the near future. Of course, custom ROMs are also an option, especially if you have a relatively older device. And custom ROMs based on Android 10 have started to pop up all across our forums. Now, the latest devices receiving unofficial Android 10 updates include the Xiaomi Redmi Note 4, Redmi 6 Pro, the OnePlus 5, the OnePlus 5T, the LG V30, and the Samsung Galaxy Tab S5e.

The Xiaomi Redmi Note 4, a budget device from Xiaomi launched in early 2017, also has its dose of Android 10, in the form of LineageOS 17 as well. There are issues with the device’s fingerprint sensor after rebooting, but for the most part, it seems to work well.

The Xiaomi Redmi 6 Pro has Pixel Experience builds based on Android 10, and while the developer says that the builds have no known issues, you should still tread carefully.

The OnePlus 5 and the OnePlus 5T have received unofficial crDroid 6.0 builds based on Android 10. Some users are reporting issues with Bluetooth as well as issues with the fingerprint scanner in the case of the OP5T, but apparently your mileage may vary.

There is also an unofficial LG V30 build of LineageOS 17. It’s considered as an “alpha” by the developer, though, and there are a fair few bugs that may break your overall experience.

The Galaxy Tab S5e, one of Samsung’s most recent tablets, has received an unofficial build of LineageOS 17.0, which seems to be bugless (at least for the most part).

While these builds are available for downloading, you should treat them as experimental builds, given how Android 10 has only been out for some weeks.

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...
