Realme 3 Pro gets new quick settings icons, SOT tracker, Digital Wellbeing, and September security patches

-

Realme has been aggressively pushing for dominance in the budget and mid-range price segments of the Indian smartphone market. For the last few months, Realme has launched at least one new smartphone every month. With these new smartphones, Realme has also announced new features such as hotspot management, improved quick settings and notifications menu, privacy vault, etc. While these features were introduced with the Realme 5 Pro (our review), the company’s CEO told us in an interview that they will come to older phones as well. Delivering on this commitment, Realme has released an update for the Realme 3 Pro and it brings a host of new design and system-related improvements.

The first and the most awaited change to the Realme 3 Pro is the set of new quick setting icons, which are now round. The overall interface of the quick settings and the notification panel has been refreshed with the latest build, i.e. RMX1851EX_11_A.19. Further, users can now swipe left or right on an upcoming notification to dismiss it.

Another major change in ColorOS 6 software is the addition of Google’s Digital Wellbeing. With this addition, Realme 3 Pro users can keep a tab on their smartphone usage including the number of unlocks, incoming notifications, time spent per app, as well as set timers for usage per app. Additionally, the Wind Down feature reminds you to settle down during bedtime and also turns the screen into black and white so that the content you’re consuming becomes less engaging and eventually makes you feel sleepy. Apart from Digital Wellbeing, the Battery settings on the Realme 3 Pro now show screen-on-time and this is something highly demanded by Realme fans and users.

Apart from these additions, there are some subtle changes in the UI and these include improvements to the lock screen clock, the Smart Assistant interface, as well as the addition of new Pixel-style date and weather widget. Additionally, there’s a new manual lock button which disables unlocking by fingerprint as well as hides notifications from the lock screen until you unlock the phone manually with the lock code or the pattern.

The Realme 3 Pro also gets the Google security patches from September 2019 with this update. There are a bunch of other new features brought in this update and you can learn more about them in the changelog, which is as follows:

  • Security
    • Android security patch: September, 2019
  • System
    • Added the manual lock feature by long-press the power button

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

-

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...
