Turn any Android 8.1 Oreo ROM into an Android Go-Optimized Version

Android Go is a special version of Android 8.1 Oreo that is optimized to run on low-end hardware. It consists of a series of build configurations and optimized applications that allow for owners of newer budget devices to enjoy features in the Android Oreo framework without spending more on a mid-range or flagship device. We previously outlined how older low-end devices running a custom Android 8.1 Oreo ROM might be able to take advantage of Android Go-specific optimizations, but for those wanting to get Android Go’s benefits without rebuilding the ROM, XDA Recognized Developer AdrianDC has you covered.

He has managed to bring the majority of the optimizations made by Android Go to any Android device on Android 8.1 Oreo. All you need to do is flash a zip file found on our Android Software and Hacking forum. There are a few optimizations that can’t be changed with this simple tweak, but one of the most important ones, the low RAM optimization, is here. What’s even better is it’s designed to persist between OTA flashes! Please note that if you have a flagship level device, you will not benefit from converting to an Android Go version of Android.

To make the switch to it, simply flash the zip file in the thread linked below. To uninstall it, flash it again. Note that a number of on-device features will be affected. These include many UI changes including a flat recents menu and other changes like high-end graphics disabled, multi-window disabled, notification icon changes, log sizes, no app notification access, zen access, VR listener access, or picture-in-picture access. If you’re willing to sacrifice this functionality to have a smoother experience on your lower-end Android phone running Android 8.1 Oreo, then give the switch to Android Go found at the link down below a try!

Renders of the Lenovo Z5 show the front-facing camera

Surprisingly, this time around the latest Lenovo Z5 info comes from a leak and not from the company's VP. All the information we have on the device so far was officially teased from the Lenovo's official, but now something extra has slipped through the cracks. The renders show the promised nearly bezel-less display with a small chin on the bottom. This is in line with the previous teasers showing nothing but screen and thankfully no notch. They also reveal how Lenovo has tackled the front-facing camera and the accompanying sensors problem. Lenovo Z5 press renders Just like the Xiaomi Mi Mix , the upcoming Lenovo Z5 will incorporate the front-facing camera, the ambient sensor, and probably the proximity sensor, on the chin. The earpiece is missing, obviously, so we suspect some kind of tech similar to the one driving the Mi Mix with the vibrating screen replacing the speaker.

Apple to Release More Affordable 13-Inch MacBook Air Soon: KGI

Apple is reportedly planning to launch a more affordable variant of the 13-inch MacBook Air in the second quarter of 2018. Apple is likely to release a new MacBook Air "with a lower price tag" during the second quarter of 2018, meaning we should see it sooner rather than later, Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo of KGI Securities was quoted as saying by 9 to 5 mac on Saturday. The analyst expects the more affordable MacBook Air will help push MacBook shipments up by 10-15 percent this year. MacBook Air, launched by then Apple CEO Steve Jobs at the MacWorld Expo in San Francisco in 2008, has not been updated since 2015 as Apple has shifted focus towards the 12-inch MacBook and MacBook Pro .

It is priced at Rs. 77,200 in In...

Will Google Finally Adopt Dual Cameras For The Pixel 4 Phones This Year?

The next Google Pixel might be getting more cameras and a sleek design overhaul. According to a leaked photo posted on the site SlashLeaks on Wednesday, the Pixel 4 XL will have two cameras on the back instead of the single one found on the Pixel 2 XL and 3 XL. Famously Google has had only a single rear camera on every Pixel model large and small. The company embraced using AI and machine learning to create photos that rival phones with two rear cameras like the iPhone XS or three back cameras like the Huawei P20 Pro. A second camera could be used for something other than photography like perhaps AR. The drawings of the unreleased 4 XL also show an oval hole-punch display for two selfie cameras like on the new Galaxy S10 Plus. Famously, the Pixel 3 lacks a notch while the Pixel 3 XL has one of the largest found on any phone. Curious enough t...
