This is great news for MIUI users. The developers of MIUI has started the 2.3 development and will soon see the new version.
From MIUI thread,
Between the edition is too much to ask when the oil has kept the equalizer like ah, here talk about a unified music player schedule below it:
1. Why has not the equalizer, when there will be the equalizer?
Development team will start from March to 2.3 migration models one by one, the equalizer will be developed on the basis of 2.3 (not the same as many underlying support, now in the 2.2 to do a lot of resources will be wasted), so it is estimated to be 3 commence until mid-next, I hope we can be patient about. We also want to let everyone hear the best sound level quickly, but because of limited manpower development team, a lot of strong demand for oil is full of 2.3, so we should look at the progress of coordination, so the EQ development team promised to plan than the beginning to be a bit late, I hope you a lot of understanding, a lot of support ah!
2. Music player will have any significant function of the back ah?
Follow-music side of the main functions are as follows:
- UI and interaction of small-scale adjustments, fit a new version of UI
- EQ (dependent on 2.3)
- More audio formats supported (dependent on 2.3)
- Desktop lyrics
If you have any other function of strong demand and problems of feedback in the bug open to discuss new features or paste, here you can Replies Oh, but the big fear of missing the water, said. . .
Development Group Bese!

hi guys, i see on all IT News that there is new storm comming! Android Jelly Bean!
Android 4.1 is the fastest and smoothest version of Android yet. We’ve made improvements throughout the platform and added great new features for users and developers. This document provides a glimpse of what's new for developers.
See the Android 4.1 APIs document for a detailed look at the new developer APIs: http://developer.android.com/about/versions/android-4.1.html
Faster, Smoother, More Responsive
Android 4.1 is optimized to deliver Android's best performance and lowest touch latency, in an effortless, intuitive UI.
To ensure a consistent framerate, Android 4.1 extends vsync timing across all drawing and animation done by the Android framework. Everything runs in lockstep against a 16 millisecond vsync heartbeat — application rendering, touch events, screen composition, and display refresh — so frames don’t get ahead or behind.
Android 4.1 also adds triple buffering in the graphics pipeline, for more consistent rendering that makes everything feel smoother, from scrolling to paging and animations.
Android 4.1 reduces touch latency not only by synchronizing touch to vsync timing, but also by actually anticipating where your finger will be at the time of the screen refresh. This results in a more reactive and uniform touch response. In addition, after periods of inactivity, Android applies a CPU input boost at the next touch event, to make sure there’s no latency.
Tooling can help you get the absolute best performance out of your apps. Android 4.1 is designed to work with a new tool called systrace, which collects data directly from the Linux kernel to produce an overall picture of system activities. The data is represented as a group of vertically stacked time series graphs, to help isolate rendering interruptions and other issues. The tool is available now in the Android SDK (Tools R20 or higher) http://developer.android.com/tools/index.html
Enhanced Accessibility
New APIs for accessibility services let you handle gestures and manage accessibility focus as the user moves through the on-screen elements and navigation buttons using accessibility gestures, accessories, and other input. The Talkback system and explore-by-touch are redesigned to use accessibility focus for easier use and offer a complete set of APIs for developers.
Accessibility services can link their own tutorials into the Accessibility settings, to help users configure and use their services.
Apps that use standard View components inherit support for the new accessibility features automatically, without any changes in their code. Apps that use custom Views can use new accessibility node APIs to indicate the parts of the View that are of interest to accessibility services.
AND A LOT A LOT of other features according to Android Developer Community at: http://developer.android.com/about/versions/jelly-bean.html
I was wondering if i could inspire the HTC One X Developers, to be the first one's that this Jelly Bean OS will be developed for HTC One X coz i can't handle the Samsung Galaxy S3 Users with their mods, roms, n stuff.
I WANT TO SHOW THEM THAT WE ARE THE BEST!
Watch this wonderful video at: http://youtu.be/V5E5revikUU
There is already a port from GNex system dump. Also a Nexus 7 system dump was made available so let's see how it goes.

Hey guys,
what to expect from the new EMUI 2.0? Features and improvements. There's this video but nothing realy new or inovative from my point of view.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=72WHPbqSamk
Yes my overall assessment is that. They added many small but useful features, small changes everywhere, fixed bugs and problems, fine tuned the performance.. But nothing that would be some kind of a news breaking or some revolutionery exceptional feature.
Btw that video does not reveal much. You can visit EMUI 2.0 thread in original android development section.
I just checked out the aospa Twitter page and they are devices that are running the new version of paranoid Android. I am wondering if there are no maintainers for this device as we do not get it built for our devices I believe that it can be built off of source but I know that there compilation methods are abid difficult. Anybody want to take a stab at it and build this wonderful run for our devices. @slothdabski @calsurferpunk @kingbri
I would sport that puppy...

I read this on their gsi xda post
(NOT using A/B partitioning scheme (ie. A-Only)
Bummer
It's a device specific flag that can be set up to run on a/b devices... It's just a matter of someone picking up the project for our phones.. I do recall that back in the day the way to build it was different from other operating systems so maybe the setup was different and nobody here has that set up possibly? I'm trying to stay patient but I am currently running DU and is running phenomenally.. I do understand that paranoid Android is very barebone right now but the caf source makes it really good on battery low and stability. I recall way back and my Galaxy S2 days ... And this is just a great project. If anyone out there can build this for us you would be incredible

Paranoid Android was very cool in 2013, I used it on my SGS4 back then on Android 4.3. They had this engine where you could set the phone to tablet, phablet or phone mode and change DPI. You could even do this on a per-App basis! Very nice :good:
On top they had a plethora of setting - oh and they had this psychedelic design! E.g. for OTA updates (IIRC) they showed this one: https://www.androidpolice.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/nexusae0_lennon.jpg
But now, in 2019, what is special about PA?

Nothing really, a lot of the stuff that they Incorporated back in the day or something that comes native on Android nowadays.. PA Theme engine is somewhat redundant especially how it lets you theme per app basis somewhat like substratum can do... I don't see Halo coming back, and it wasn't back in the Android 7 or 8 builds of paranoid Android... I will say one of the things that they have going for them would be the caf base.. as I mentioned before it is extremely fluid and great on battery life.. ever since @molesarecoming left the dev scene for this operating system, it honestly seemed to have died as far as what features where available on this... I guess now it's good for nostalgia and stability as far as features go I don't see what they can offer that we don't already get with other options... I can't say this though, the battery life has always been good on these ROMs
Do youse think android 13 should fetch widgets back now Ios 16 has them years later. What other features and customisations do you think we should get?
What would you like to see added to widget functionality in Android 13?
Calculator and a few others probably a random list of things to choose from

There isn't a widget in the world that makes them worth using for me. I think they're all garbage.
