Android 2.2 (FroYo) to Have Full Flash Support

image

The up coming release of Android 2.2 (FroYo) will be the first Android version to fully support Adobe's Flash platform according to The New York Times. Changes to the iPhone make it more difficult for developers to create apps and Google plans to cash in on that mistake. Although HTC Hero users have been able to experience flash support already, other devices have not had this luxury.

FroYo's Rumored Features

 

  • There is much buzz around the net that FroYo will have automatic updating
  • New API's that will allow better touch screen response
  • Increase in RAM due to the new 2.6.32 Linux Kernel

 

When HTC released the Hero last June, it was the first Android device to support Adobe's Flash. This was followed by an announcement that Adobe would unveil its first full fledged Flash multimedia player for smartphones which since then been put on delay. The halt was due to Adobe wanting to take advantage of some of Android 2.1 API's. As it stands currently Adobe is to release its flash platform in the first half of 2010.

A Unified Android Future

image

The huge explosion of Android's popularity created a new problem for Google. The problem is that with the diversity of handset makers and Android platforms it is difficult to unify the OS. Google has developed a solution to the problem which should make end users quite happy. Google's solution will be accomplished with a two step approach.

According to Engadgets conversation with google:

  1. Google will simply stop developing new Android versions as fast as they have over the last year. (1.5, 1.6, 2.0, and 2.1 were released in less than a year)
  2. Google plans to shift development to focus on applications. The latest applications bundled with the new OS updates will be available to older phones through the Android Market which will allow for bypassing handset makers and mobile carriers. (Which means no more waiting for your carrier and handset maker to release an update for your Android phone.)

Sources state the next Android release will be codenamed Froyo where this new implementation will take effect which will be followed by codename gingerbread.

This is a huge milestone for Android users, which will tear down the roadblocks of waiting for Handset makers and Carriers to release new updates. This will also help developers not have to pick and choose the flavor of Android OS for applications.
