The version history of the Android mobile operating system began with the public release of its first beta on November 5, 2007. The first commercial version, Android 1.0, was released on September 23, 2008. The operating system is developed by Google on a yearly cycle since at least 2011.[1] New major releases are announced at Google I/O along with its first public beta to supported Google Pixel devices. The stable version is then released later in the year.
The development of Android started in 2003 by Android, Inc., which was purchased by Google in 2005.[2] There were at least two internal releases of the software inside Google and the Open Handset Alliance (OHA) before the beta version was released.[3][4] The beta was released on November 5, 2007,[5][6] while the software development kit (SDK) was released on November 12, 2007.[7] Several public beta versions of the SDK were released.[8] These releases were done through software emulation as physical devices did not exist to test the operating system. Both the operating system itself and the SDK were released along with their source code, as free software under the Apache License.[9]
We have a beta version of the BLE extension that incorporates the new Bluetooth permissions introduced in Android 12. Please make a backup of your projects before upgrading the extension. Because this is a work in progress, there may be issues that still need to be addressed. If you try it out, please leave feedback in this thread.
Did you include a block that actually tries to scan or connect? The dangerous permissions are included conditionally. This way, for example, your app doesn't get the BLUETOOTH_ADVERTISE permission if the app never uses the StartAdvertising block. For example, here is a copy of our healthy plant IOT tutorial with the beta version added and when I compile it to APK I get the location and Bluetooth permissions.
Updated internal Crashpad version to commit 281ba7. With thischange, disabling tagged pointers is no longer required, so the following canbe removed from your manifest's application tag:android:allowNativeHeapPointerTagging=false.
To continue using Google AdMob, you need to explicitly add the dependency for the Google Mobile Ads SDK including its version (com.google.android.gms:play-services-ads:22.5.0) to your app's build.gradle file.
From its initial release, android has changed conceptually, visually, and functionally with time to provide advanced features to its users. In this article, you will learn the Android version list from the beginning to the latest running mobile operating system with its history, functionality, and features.
The problem with that URL only works for the 2.5.0-beta2 release. If you use that URL, you will not get notifications for future updates or be able to update to newer updates than 2.5.0-beta2. I have seen the use of these URLs cause problems for people several times in the past where it caused people to be using a very outdated version while thinking that was the latest one available.
If there is a situation where the standard URL simply can't be made to work and the version-specific URL will work, then I guess it's a reasonable choice. However, I can't imagine how that would ever occur. Certainly, if you're going to recommend the use of one of these URLs, you should also warn people of the consequences and recommend that they regularly check for new versions. This is especially important with this release since it's a beta version and thus is more likely to have bugs. These beta releases are not really intended for general use. They should only be used by people who are interested in helping the development work by doing beta testing and reporting any bugs they find.
To improve Android app performance, we are collecting trace events and device information, collectively known as metrics, to identify slow performing key areas. Those metrics will be sent only from users using Android app beta build starting in version v1.20, who are logged in to servers that allow sending diagnostic information.

Google released the public beta version of Android 1.0 for developers around the same time of the alliance's announcement, in November 2007. It wasn't until Google released Android 1.5 in April 2009 that Google introduced Android's signature dessert-themed naming scheme; the name of Android 1.5 was "Cupcake." Around the time of the release of Android 4.4 KitKat, Google released an official statement to explain the naming: "Since these devices make our lives so sweet, each Android version is named after a dessert."
This version adds more support for theVonage Media Processor filters. The background blur filter now accepts a custom radius option. And there is a new background replacement filter. You can create these video filters using the VideoTransformer(String name, String properties) constructor. This is a beta feature.
This version adds support for theVonage Media Processor libraryand custom media transformers.

This version adds the ability to enable Opus DTX.Enabling Opus DTX can reduce bandwidth usage in streams that have long periods of silence.This was previously a beta feature. See the docs for the PublisherKit.Builder.enableOpusDtx()method.
When using this version, you will need to specify sourceCompatibility andtargetCompatibility to use Java 11. You can do this by modifying the app'sbuild.gradle file and adding the following code snippet to the android section:
This version adds the ability for moderators to mute participants. This was previously a beta feature.See the docs for the Session.forceMuteAll(), Session.forceMuteStream(), and Session.disableForceMute()methods. Note that the Session.forceMuteAll() and Session.forceMuteStream() methods no longerinclude an options parameter, like they did in the beta version.
This version adds the ability to dynamically change how published video streams are optimized.This can improve video performance for some screen-sharing streams and in other conditions.This was previously a beta feature. See the docs for the BaseVideoCapturer.getVideoContentHint()and BaseVideoCapturer.setVideoContentHint() methods.

When using this version, you will need to specify sourceCompatibility andtargetCompatibility to use Java 8. You can do this by modifying the app'sbuild.gradle file and adding the following code snippet to the android section:
The OpenTok Android SDK now requests theandroid.permission.READ_PHONE_STATE permission. This additionalpermission was added in version 2.15.0. Your app can removeany permissions requested by the OpenTok Android SDK that itdoes not use. See this post and [thisAndroid documentation.
Note that the samples directory is no longer included in the SDK bundle. The sample code is nowavailable at the open-sourceopentok-android-sdk-samples repositoryon GitHub. This allows us to keep it up to date and provide developers with latest version ofthe sample code. Feel free to clone the repo or download the source code to see the best-practiceexamples of OpenTok usage.
When setting a proxy URL (with the OTSessionSettings.proxyURL property), please use the absolute URL root path only. Using the proxy path in the URL does not work currently and is a known bug. Hence " -proxy.herokuapp.com" and " -proxy.herokuapp.com:443" are acceptable, while " -proxy.herokuapp.com/" and " -proxy.herokuapp.com/my-beta-app/version5" are not.
