Source Code of Jelly Bean arrived: Android 4.1.1 and Team Cyanogen ready!

There were days we were waiting for the official announcement and I finally arrived. We speak of the source codes for Jelly Bean Galaxy Nexus, Nexus S and Nexus 7  are now available at the following link:  android.googlesource.com . An important story that predates did 3 things:
 

  • Android Jelly Bean will not be definitive, but Android 4.1 Android 4.1.1, which is a new version even more than that released on the Nexus of Google I / O. Difficult to know the differences, even if recent events with Apple and the ban of the Galaxy Nexus may have led to some changes and subsequent development of this new version.
  • Cyanogen team will now begin the actual development of CyanogenMod 10 . In fact, just the sources were expected to prepare the basis for the development and at this point is not inconceivable that the first nightly can get short-time, perhaps in August.
  • Android 4.1.1 official seems to be ready for the Nexus range from Nexus S to Nexus Nexus 7 obviously passing through the Galaxy Nexus confirming the timing of mid-July has always said and confirmed by Google.
An excellent start to the day so for users and developers!

CyanogemMod 10 Official: first we will focus CM9 Stable and Jelly Bean!

It 'official: Jelly Bean will arrive in the project and will be implemented in version CyanogenMod CyanogenMod 10. If the news is good on the one hand, the other will still take a long time before you actually see the first of the nightly CyanogenMod 10. The team has made ​​it clear that it will be completed first draft ICS which reduced the current stage of Stable release and concluding the work on smartphones supported.
 
The time needed to refine the CyanogenMod 9 will also release the source AOSP Jelly Bean that day, however, are expected to arrive, however, and therefore the first stable release of the CM9.

Once everything is ready, work will begin to optimize Android 4.1 to make it perfect in Cyanogen rom. The team is optimistic, however, and the work done with ICS will be very important for the development of Jelly Bean. In particular, the time is much faster than switching from Gingerbread to ICS and a stable CyanogenMod 10 could arrive within a few months after the official release of Jelly Bean.

Good news for supported devices. Although there can be no certainty yet, smartphones and Tablet which can now boast the CM9, also have an excellent chance to see the version 10 based on Jelly Bean.

The team was satisfied with the changes introduced by Google and will work on the launcher, and release all the optimizations that we see today on CM9 in the new version. So still no date, but no certainty to CyanogenMod 10 will soon be official. But first we wait for the CM9 Stable.

Jelly Bean Easter Egg hides the next version of Android Kandy Kane?

As with every version of Android, by going into settings and clicking repeatedly on the version number, you receive a nice Easter egg. Nothing new and we have already seen the animation of Jelly Bean. Among the many candies that float on the screen, however, an intruder was spotted. In practice this is the candy cane you see in the image and gave rise to immediate speculation. Google does not leave anything to chance, although there is no certainty, it is very likely that this image represents a different distribution of the next Android. What will be? Android 4.2 (or 5.0) Kandy Kane!  Obviously it will release the name at the moment can be considered realistic, especially because Kandy is a corruption of Candy and then a strained right now, but considering that Google is in alphabetical order, the K is the next letter and math is not an opinion, 1 +1 = 2.
 
Update: another hypothesis is that the candy cane does not indicate the name, but the exit period around Christmas because it is an American classic Christmas decoration. Speculation of course and many fantasies.

Android Beam in Jelly Bean: how to transfer images

The file transfer and content through the use of NFC is already known and what the function is called Beam . Jelly Bean with the potential of this feature increased allowing more interaction with applications on your device. In the video we see how to follow the flow of images between Galaxy Nexus and Nexus 7 with Android 4.1.
Unfortunately, as the author explains, the Nexus using the NFC and the Beam feature to "talk" and began the dialogue once the transfer is done via Bluetooth. Unfortunately it is not a standard because of Samsung S3 for example, uses the Wi-Fi Direct for data transfer after pairing via NFC. So two different systems that do not communicate with each other and are likely to prevent the transfer of files between S3 and Nexus for example.
Of course, smart tags and NFC stickers are universal, but when we talk about file transfer after pairing via NFC can be used two ways: Bluetooth or Wi-Fi Direct.  Thanks to White Fox IV, via

Google is serious here is the potential assistant Voice of Jelly Bean!

In October came the Syrians, the first assistant on the speech for smartphones such as Apple created the media campaign to launch and market iPhone 4s. In February came the S-Voice, Samsung's answer to the Syrians with some similar features and a vocal approach similar to the European media, missing out on IOS and now ready to come with iPhone OS 6. Other proposals for developers and software houses have been presented in recent months until the arrival of Google .
Comparing Google's announcement at the Google I / O capabilities of the new Voice Search to the presentation made ​​by Apple, you'd think that the implementation by the search giant, the vocal duties is bland, not up to the competitor and such as not to be heralded as a functional decidedly important. We, by using Jelly Bean day, we have not appreciated the new Voice Search for considering the limitations of our language, but seeing the video below, we were stunned in front of the accuracy and potential of Google Voice from the server .

Whether you prefer Google Search or the Syrians or that are deemed both unnecessary and impractical choices is not important, what is clear is how the Google software is able to offer mixed results in a rapid, direct and above all with 47 questions in a row to which the Voice Search Jelly Bean never answers incorrectly and never interprets it wrong!

All mixed up with clear answers, with a voice "human" very nice (another planet compared to the other assistants voice) and visual results and additional information with respect to the question posed by the protagonist of the video. In practice, a software evolution, arrived on the market now and then still in development, announced at Google I / O, virtually unpublicized but, in fact, seems to offer something more than the competition. The integrated whole, beautiful, simple and intuitive to use.

Judge for yourself:
Do not miss the last 30 seconds!

Jelly Bean: Safe Mode also comes

More news for Jelly Bean , or at least to the ROM for Galaxy Nexus runs the network that still does not contain changes to the system level and believe that the option which we show to be available for all devices Jelly Bean. We are talking about the Safe Mode , a system startup Android that is known to some users but which do not hardly ever speaks.
 
In practice Jelly Bean is able to restart the device in Safe Mode by simply pressing and holding for a few seconds the power button Turn off the context menu.

Boot into Safe Mode is a tool that can be useful to some developers or advanced users and allows you to boot without third-party apps.

Restart in Safe Mode will disable all third-party applications installed. These, however, are restored at next reboot.

So quotes the message context that assures us that in practice, we will not lose data and the applications we have installed. A small tips of Jelly Bean.

Android 4.1 Jelly Bean says goodbye to Adobe Flash Player

Last year, Adobe announced that the development of Flash Player for Android would be terminated within the platform supporting the plugin only for bug fixes and stability. This year the situation will probably quit forever with the arrival of Android 4.1 Jelly Bean and the tablet Nexus 7 , Adobe has officially confirmed that there will be no version of Flash Player for Android and the confirmation comes just from the first hands on the tablet that just does not integrate it into the operating system.
 
In addition, Adobe also announced that the component would withdraw completely from the Play Store from next August 15 , this means that you can not install it to find it through the usual window of available applications within the Google store, while for those who continue to have on your device, the company does know that it will continue to issue updates even after the closing date of stay in the Play Store.

This move to some extent unexpected is the direct consequence of the non-compatibility of the last distribution Android, Adobe would therefore urge users to uninstall it before upgrading to Android 4.1, since Flash Player will not work properly and will not be supported at the level of upgrades safety. It then closes the era of Flash Player for mobile devices, hailed the arrival of the good old distribution  Froyo 2.2 and praised as the key point lead over Apple, now betrayed by his own partner first with Chrome and now permanently from the central system. The times seem finished the Flash and the Web seems to be adapting to the language HTML5.

Needless to say that Apple has been instrumental in bringing this change in favor of standard HTML5 which has since gained experience and maturity with developers and webmasters who increasingly are adapting to the new standard.  by

Google Voice Search: The answer to Siri and S-voice integrated in Jelly Bean

If Apple has focused heavily on its voice recognition system called Siri and Samsung has responded with a voice of Galaxy S-S3, Google surprised introducing among the many innovations of Jelly Bean improved and revised version of voice search, which is called Voice Search . Viewed from the first image and after the opinions of the heat seems like a less waiting features that most impressed those present.
Although this first version will be available only in English (but a planned future upgrade to other languages) it seems that the improvement of speech is very good, giving a voice very natural and less robotic than both S-voice that Siri. Consider, however, with the tongs hot PRMI opinions if we consider that the demonstration of Voice-search lasted a couple of minutes.

Voice Search.

Rather Sometimes you'd just speak your search query. Or just ask a question. Android lets you search the web with your voice, and it's convenient for getting quick answers on the fly. It speaks back to you and is powered by the Knowledge Graph, Bringing you a precise answer if it knows it, and PRECISELY ranked search results, so you can always find out more.

The news is mainly from the graphic that will accompany our targeted search of information, designed to be simple, intuitive but powerful because in addition to displaying the results complete with pictures and links to sources will be accompanied by vocal response from the terminal. Google called the GUI supplied with the vocal response " Knowledge Graph . "
The news is then in a voice system evolved and improved performance in speech recognition and synthesis, together with Knowledge Graph will intervene in specific research offering the desired information quickly and accompanied by links to further investigate.

We just have to wait to try Jelly Bean officially Voice Search and Knowledge Graph. Dates are obviously not been disclosed on a possible European update with new languages, so we have to wait a bit to try the new feature voice of Jelly Bean.
