Android 4.3 - the revolution does not have - dobreprogramy

appeared on Android 4.3 for Neksus 4 – one person bought the phone and was already running in this particular version. This resulted in the “Pulling” and prepare for other users. The same day saw the release ready to flash via CWM, having root access immediately, the new bootloader, the new kernel, and radio (baseband). It is true that very good use of my CyanogenMod, Android and clean rather poor, but they decided to tempt and try. Finally, make a backup just wait. Changes in the new system, there is not much at all, and to see them, you have to look a little under the hood. The observed can include:

• more options during the initial setup: even then we are asked about the new location access via Wi-Fi (which later), and the offer of Google Play as a checkbox. It does not require an additional click of a button.
• Finally, a T9 dialer – this option should be long, long time ago, but I do not know why, Google slow to produce. I do not know why, but automatic search in contacts is disabled by default, after switching contacts matching the number that you type are displayed horizontally on the same number. In my opinion, this solution slightly worse than those in CM.

Sizeable

changed the camera application. Significantly minimizes the delay when turning the screen (although there are still some), because now turns theoretically the screen, but only the function keys. It is unfortunate that it is still not done so, as do producers even just any overlays. In addition, the options are “pop”. When you hold the screen, we have the first level settings. When we move the circle, is developing the next level, etc. It is not only nice, but also very comfortable. On the plus side include the ability to use the volume buttons as the shutter releases. Finally, you can take a picture holding (does not look like, it’s not small) phone in two hands.
• In the case of Wi-Fi scanning option has been added to the network, even if we exclude the module. This is to improve the location, without listening to the message about the need to include Wi-Fi, if it previously stopped running. In my opinion, a very convenient option, because now even consciously turning off the wireless network connection, it will still be able to improve the localization if necessary.
• course, updating the application – Play store is the latest version, even when the Polish language and Polish locations at once with support for books. Until withdrawn Gtalk, instead it is obviously Hangoutów application. Unfortunately, Google continues to be included Chat, which is used for non-knows-what. A new feature is the integration of applications running Keep, so notepad from Google.

  • visual changes – I feel like a bit different than the previous screen looks to add widgets on the desktops locked screen. Of the major dashboard also disappeared from the power management widget (do not worry, it is available), and in return came up with suggestions from Google Play. I’m not 100% sure whether it was before, but I feel that from the labels on the desktop in the event of default launcher shadows disappeared. Last change is the ability to display information about the application by pressing and holding the notification bar. This allows you to check which application sent the information concerned.
  • completely under the hood, and what is already known for some time: there is support for 3D graphics in OpenGL ES 3.0, and Bluetooth 4.0, and thus acting as a low-power mode and is designed to communicate, such as the watches.
  • changes to a specific device, so Neksus 4 – seems to work even a little faster (and can be?), but the most important change is a delicate color calibration. This is not an effect similar to AMOLEDu that provide custom kernels, but the change is noticeable – white is a little brighter, and other colors were a bit brighter. This can be a significant advantage for people who complain a bit too “plastic” color screen of this phone. Apparently also corrected a problem with the Bluetooth, but that he takowego never even noticed, I can not say too much.

  changes are, but apparently not too great and he who expects a revolution, but rather a convert. Similarly, it was in the case of version 4.2, but still can draw a conclusion – Google introduces minor changes and fixes, and updates the rest of the applications already available in your store. Is this the way to fight fragmentation by giving users the hands of applications in the latest versions, even the layout of Google with Polish vocabulary and writing gestures? Quite possibly. Will I be on Android 4.3? No. Still he is to me a bit ‘too poor’ in terms of the options used every day. Besides, CyanogenMod is really stable, even in the editions of the night ;)
