Difference B/W 4.1.2 and 4.3 android

drshnraj7 — Tue, 07 Jan 2014 09:39:59 GMT

HI All,

Can any one clarify and provide the difference between the existing android in SP and 4.3 which is being expected to just get a clarification on why all the SP lovers are cursing and eagerly waiting for this apart from the bug fixes in Cam,WI-fi,screen and more.

I'm just trying to prepare myself either to be eager or just casually wait for the update to come on its sweet own time with no bugs and all the issues resolved from the existing OS.

Going by that list I don't see why everyone is so anxious to get the update. It's mostly bloatware "enhancements".

Core 4.3 does have some cool things like TRIM which really helps performance - hopefully Sony will include that.

Perhaps you should ask the developers. They haven't release any changelog / detailed information about the update.

Hello

In my case for example, I want to know before changing 4.1 -> 4.3 if Sony proposes an option to sleep "automaticly" my phone at night (a predefine hour).

This is no more possible by application with 4.3 (Google change that), some phone (like Weeko's one - I think) propose this tweak.

Then it's why, me too I think that a real "realise note" is a good idea.

Sincerly

For me is bad that lockscreen on JB 4.1.2 have quick play music and 4.3 is without quick play music. Sorry for my English.

That would be great. Do they usually release that type of thing publicly?

1. Project Butter : An initiative for the Android mobile operating system to make the OS quicker and more responsive for users. For example, swiping through homescreen, switching between apps, etc.

2. Daydream : similar to 'screensaver' at desktop PC.

I thought Project Butter came with 4.1 already.

All above mentioned 4.3 enhancements are not really essential - at least for me. My hope is that Sony fixes the known bugs with the 4.3 update, like:
- Black screen at switch on
- Camera quality
- redraw of icons and widgets in homescreen
- low Bluetooth volume
...
