The posts can be concluded that the first fire went variant of LTE model (C6603), and is certainly available in Spain and Ukraine (version bought in the store), and in brantowanych operators in the Czech Republic, Austria and the Netherlands. Interestingly, the new firmware has reached even to Taiwan, where he is lurking in the version with 3G modem (C6602A).

HP Desktop running on Android - Techworld

Operating Systems managing mobile devices are entering more and more boldly to desktops, including those for businesses. Evidence of this fact, HP announced yesterday in Beijing (China) desktop all-in-one (which has a display of 21.5-inch), running an operating system Android (Google).

Class=”frame_src c23″ id=”z_264189″> Acer N3-220 Analysts point to the fact that the operating system Windows 8 (Microsoft) did not address such a success, what we all expected. Hence the growing interest of PC running Android. They hope that the users are dissatisfied with Windows 8 will be willing to go for something new, that is the Android system.

It is quite an attractive alternative given the fact that Google is promoting Android as an open and free operating system. For Adroid speaks another. For many companies, this is not a novelty, which is to be feared, because they often already have quite a large fleet of mobile devices (smartphones and tablets) that work was under the control of the operating system.

Remains, of course, there are a few problems to solve . Perhaps the most important of these is the fact that Android (and the applications that run on devices running on the software) is designed to work with devices with small displays. PCs have large displays, because “pecetowy” Android should be taken into account.

In the footsteps of HP and Acer are following another supplier of personal computing systems. It is expected that later this month, Asus and Samsung will enrich their offers for tablets / laptops (device type “ convertible “) which will be able to work under Windows or Android.

Android in blue - CyanogenMod - TELEPOLIS.PL

among users of Android smartphones from time to time about the so-called scrolls. Custom ROMs and modified software. People often also shortcuts that less familiar with this system, users can speak a little CM, MIUI, AOSP, etc. For those who are more familiar with the system of Google, it is not no secret, so this text will be more dedicated to the people who just put your first steps with a green robot. And it will affect the most famous probably modify Android, which is already legendary CyanogenMod, which I will try to bring the readers.

What is CyanogenMod?

A quick answer is an alternative version of CyanogenMod Android based on the freely available source code, written by programmers but not Google, but a group of independent developers. The history of the CM goes back to 2008 and the launch of the first device with Android – HTC Dream, more well-known in Poland as the T-Mobile G1. Then it is the creator and father of CyanogenMod, Steve Kondik named, had the idea to modify the software available according to your preferences. Then it just came up with CyanogenMod (Cyanogen is a nickname Kondika under which operate on a network), which still operates in millions of mobile devices.
The HTC Dream CM appeared ports on another device, initially only HTC, later and other manufacturers. The Kondika joined by encouraging the development of CyanogenMod developers constantly growing community of users and supported devices. At present, work on the blue variant of the couple dozen Android developers, and joined to mobile tablets, navigation PNA and ebook readers. The official website of CyanogenMod is now more than 60 devices, although it is not a complete list, because there is no shortage of enthusiasts porters CM for not popular and not officially supported by the project smartphones.

Well, but what in general is that the CM and how it differs from what they offer us manufacture our machines? Generally CyanogenMod is based on pure open source Android, the rest of the system, including the kernel and support for all components and systems of the device was written almost from scratch by developers. So it is completely clean, free from all kinds of add-ons and applications system manufacturers. What’s more, some time in CyanogenModzie not find even the most basic applications such as Google Maps, Talk or Gmail. Most “GAPPS”, upload separately after the installation of the system as a separate item. This is because of a dispute over rights to the application of Google, whose presence in CyanogenModzie at some point began to annoy the giant network. Google requested the removal of informal distribution of its Android application, and creator of CM fear of a dispute with a huge corporation decided to extract them out of their work. For the end user it is not too much difference comes down to the installation of one pack more.

The first distribution of CM based on the Android 1.5 Cupcake and wore number 3.x, another (4.x) was based on 1.6 Donut, then similarly appeared 5.x based on Eclair (Android 2.0 and 2.1). Another distribution was androidowym 6.x based on Froyo (2.2), and then very popular, developed to date version 7.x as an alternative Android 2.3.x Gingerbread. The latest version of CyanogenMod 9.0 and 9.1 are based on the Ice Cream Sandwich (4.0.x), 10 (Android 4.1.x), and 10.1, with a basis Jelly Bean version 4.2.x. Whew …

As you can see now, we have three distributions and constantly improving, still popular on older devices, CM 7.x It’s your choice. The most refined versions are now 9 and 10, and that on this last will be based on this Article. The newest of the creators of CM-10.1 version is for now under development and on most devices running the event as a so-called nightly.
