Android 3.1 Platform Updates and Android 3.1 features




The highly anticipated update for the tablet version of one of the most popular mobile operating systems has finally arrived. It does not bring with it a new name, but instead, settles for incrementing the 0 from the previous Android 3.0 Honeycomb. This does not mean it is less impressive, as it brings quite a lot of upgrades and improvements to an already solid OS.


One of the best bits of this 3.1 version is that it is available starting today, at least on the Motorola XOOM tablet. We are sure that other tablets will get it really soon, but considering the fact that the Motorola device was the first to spot Google¡¯s tablet OS, there is nothing surprising with this choice. The other nice thing is that the Android 3.1 Honeycomb will also find its way to Google TV as well as some other home appliances in the very near future.



Along with the usual performance and power management features, this new Android 3.1 also comes with a much needed task manager upgrade. The new manager should automatically close idle tasks instead of letting the user do it. Why is this good? Well it a way this means your device will last longer because less RAM will need power. In another way it is a little bit worse since every time you launch an app it will have to load all the data again instead of just resuming the program. Before you jump to any conclusions keep in mind that this is works only on idle or inactive processes.




Most of the XOOM owners will surely rejoice at the sight of being able to resize their favorite widgets. pay as you go touch screen phones under 0„5100 This is a first in the Android world and it surely is a nice addition. Imagine instead of having to make 3 or 4 widgets with different sizes, you would just have to make one that could be resized to anybody¡¯s needs. Honeycomb 3.1 also brings direct phone to tablet USB support and the USB host ability for controllers and keyboards. Just imagine using your new tablet for playing some cool 3D games with the help of an Xbox controller.
