What is so great about 7.0 Nougat? >be me >upgrade to

>>59706205
The version number is different. Otherwise, general security patches and hey, Nougat is better than Marshmallow. Ever had a Charleston Chew?

man they sure have made a big deal out of which phones are getting it and which are not if there is no big difference or benefits to it I don't see what all the noise is about

>>59706205
Biggest change you'll notice is dual window and a more aggressive doze. And some ui changes. That's about all.

Android O will be pretty much the same. A once again note aggressive doze, which is good IMO.

>>59706331
>Biggest change you'll notice is dual window

how do I into dual window?

nothing

it still doesn't even have color management in 20 fucking 17

it's literally one of the worst OS's of all time.

>>59706357
Long press on the button for the appdrawer I think.

>>59706383
>Long press on the button for the appdrawer I think.

that just gives me a keyboard, is that the dual window?

>>59706371
>it still doesn't even have color management in 20 fucking 17

the colors on my phone seem pretty managed desu

The last big change that justified a major version number increase, was from Kitkat to Lollipop. Marshmallow and Nougat are just successive improvements of Lollipop.

Looks like your manufacurer ruined android, like most of them do

I mean the button where you see all your open apps.

>>59706520
>I mean the button where you see all your open apps.

oh i guess I am doing it wrong but i still don't see a difference

>>59706205

Notifications are redone a bit. Better battery life. Of course newest security fixes.

Android has been the same shit since 4.1

i highly doubt it.
I'll be impressed if even the ICCv2 profiles work for you.

>>59706205
In my case, I switched from motorola's marshmallow to lineage nougat. Jesus the difference is huge under the hood. All those customizations and settings I didn't have before, like the software control buttons, systray icons, seconds on the clock, motorola's premium features like flip-to-donotdisturb and pick-up-to-mute-ringing built-in, no more forced ringtone fade-in, etc.

It's like going from windows 10 to 7, it's just wow, a world of difference under the hood, just nothing visible on your homescreen

I don't know about features, but the worst anti feature is that Xposed doesn't work on N.

It's better than Lollipop for sure. Remember 5.x? I have a faint memory of how android was different and awesome during my days with s4 mini. Oh man!

>>59706559
The multitasking button, long press the square button where you switch between apps

>>59706662
4.x to 5 was a huge change graphics-wise, but that's about it
I hate these frequent major version bumps. if you only make minor changes, increment the minor version number - that's what it's for anyway.

>>59706762
Not just graphics-wise, they also changed the runtime from Art to Dalvik.

Android 4.4.4 @ S2, works for me

fuck android

>>59706205
Better stability and battery life. Also small UI changes that make the experience just a little bit better. What are you expecting?

>>59709126
3 rupees were deposited into your loo.

>>59706710
Works fine on my Nexus 5x and my wife's Galaxy S4 perfectly fine. Is this supposed to be something Android had problems with?

>Better stability and battery life. Also small UI changes that make the experience just a little bit better. What are you expecting?

A new OS, like going from Windows 95 to 98

>>59709340
The improvements are under the hood, just like with Windows 98.

>>59709359
>The improvements are under the hood, just like with Windows 98.

windows 98 looks and feels totally different than 95 desu

>>59709381
No it doesn't. That's like saying Windows Vista and Windows 7 look totally different. It's the same general design with small changes.

Upgrading to nougat fucked my s7, can no longer fast charge and cant charge at all while the phone is on. Can only slow charge while the fuckers off. Tried various things. No luck.

>>59709429
>No it doesn't. That's like saying Windows Vista and Windows 7 look totally different. It's the same general design with small changes.

they look pretty damn different

nougat literally looks exactly the same as marshmellow

>>59706205
Supports Java 8.

>>59706205
Notifications looks a bit different and more importantly,

MUCH shorter battery life.

Now, "your mileage may vary" but the battery lasted a whole lot longer on my BV6000 before "upgrading" to Nougat.

Other than that... the GUI is slightly different but basically the same.

No Xposed and the recent apps switcher fucking sucks now. But hey, security patches.

>>59706276
I have but I'd rather have a smore any time

>>59709573
>beating a dead horse.gif

>>59709603
My battery was also acting up on upgrade -- 23 hours to charge and losing 1% a minute. So I just did a so-called "calibration". Let it drain to zero while I did shit, then charge to 100 while the phone's off. So far seems alright, though I can't really claim causality lol.

Nougat sucks

how can I stop the auto upgrade?

Marshmallow to Nougat was probably the least exciting upgrade ever, it took me months to realize that my shield k1 tablet had the upgrade

Upgrading from Kit Kat to Nougat for me was very nice

>>59706205
>What am I missing?
Xposed

I'm running nougat (lineage os) and it's a good upgrade from lolipop. Not a big change but soles options are appreciated (some of them come from the custom ROM). Sound menu is really good on nougat compared to the shitty lolipop sound menu. My only regret is the Easter eggs that is shit and boring

>>59710292
>>59710979
That's a stupid face, should've stayed on KitKat.

I JUST WANT RADIO, MY SHITTY PHONE FROM 2013 RUNNING ANDROID 4.0 HAD IT WHY CAN'T A FUCKING S7 WITH THE LATEST HARDWARE AND SOFTWARE DO IT

Doze was greatly improved, rendering some wakelock blocker apps redundant.
https://developer.android.com/about/versions/nougat/android-7.0-changes.html
Other than that, the UI is smoother than ever before and almost all Nougat custom ROMs use Magisk and not SuperSU as a rooting method.

Found your problem, get a good phone

I literally never use the dual apps, even on a 6" its just too damn tiny

>>59715214
I got it as a gift

That logo is triggering me
Is it supposed to be one of those impossible shapes or is the designer just an idiot?

But there is an AMAZING KITTEN EASTER EGG! Go to version number, tap several times, tap several times on logo and then hold. There should appear cat head.
Then you have new tile in notifications drawer, where you can feed, name and collect kittens. I had 12 of them, even alien ones.

>>59715410
the light source is centered and above the the blue part. Other than that I see nothing out of the ordinary

>>59715647
The light source is also on the left, though. Look at the shadows around the purple parts.

>>59715669
Then they're also tilted, maybe even along with the background
The gradients are missing because they're not minimalistic enough
gotta go
