Android, an Open-Source Operating System is made
by Google. This operating system has gone through
some pretty incredible modifications since its debut
on the T-Mobil G1.Without, doubt, no single
consumer technology has evolved as rapidly as the
Smartphone, and Android has been at the very heart
of this evolution.

 The era of Android, began on October, 22nd,
2008, when the T-Mobil launched in the
United States. Many of its important key
features that we can’t live without today, were
missing – multi-touch capability, an on-screen
keyboard and paid apps, for instance.

 However, these early phones clearly weren’t
without flaws, but it was nearly universally
admitted that Android nailed the notification
system from day one. The secret was in the
G1’s unique status bar, which could be
dragged downward to reveal every notification
with a single list, like text, voicemails,
messages, alarms, and so on. This
fundamental concept lives on even today in
4.0.

 Let us see the updates as and when they
occurred:
 V1.0 – This was the first commercial release
of Android, at this time it wasn’t widely
available, but had many novel features that
were important and are still used today Like:
 - The pull-down notification window
 - Home screen widgets
 - Gmail Integration
 - The Android Market

 V1.1 – This had many bug fixes and was solely
available for G1 T-Mobil. It also added a few features
like Maps update.
 V1.5 - Also known as “Cupcake” was released in April
2009, it added several hotly-anticipated features that
were critical to keep the platform, competitive. It was
likewise the first edition to use Google’s Sweet naming
convention. Every update after the Cupcake has been
identified after the confection in alphabetical order. The
updates it got along were:
 An on-screen Keyboard
 Extensible Widgets
 Clipboard Improvements
 Video Capture Playback

 V1.6 – Also known as “Donut”, though was not
as big update as Cupcake, but it was
nevertheless a far bigger deal than its 0.1
increments would let on. It made another pass
of minor visual refinements throughout the
platform. Although the news was, it offered
CDMA support, this version of Android was the
initiative to support CDMA platform.

V2.0/2.1 – it was named Éclair and was
launched in November 2009. It represented
the most fundamental refresh that Android
had seen since its debut, both visually as
well as architecturally. These significantly
improved nuts and bolts played a large part
in the device’s retail success.

 To name a few:
 Multiple Account Support
 Google Maps Navigation
 Quick Contacts
 Soft Keyboard Improvements
 Revamped Browser
 Live Wallpapers
 Speech to text
 A new Lock-Screen

 V2.2 – named Frozen Yogurt (FROYO) was
released May 2010 and amended with many
characteristics. It was around the launch of 2.2,
that Google started taking Android very
seriously. The key features which were
upgraded with the 2.2 launch, are:
 Adobe Flash Support
 Multiple Keyboard Languages
 Portable Hotspots

 V2.3 – Gingerbread as it
was called; it was
comparatively a minor
release – only there were
enough small changes to
make collectively a fair
large improvement to the
platform. Features
upgrade were:
 NFC support
 Faster Text Input
 Enhanced Copy and
Paste

 V3.0 – Android 3.0 also known as
Honeycomb previewed a fundamental
redesign of the platform’s user interface.
Let us see some of its features.
 Improved Multi tasking
 A new paradigm for app layout
 New UI for Tablets

 V4.0 – IceCream Sandwich as we
address it today. This update is known to
be the biggest change for the Android
Phones, without any doubt. Its Features:
 More Home-screen Improvements
 Android Beam
 Face Unlock
 Data Usage Analysis
 New Calendar and Mail Apps

 V4.1 – Announced at Google’s I/O
conference, Android 4.1 Jelly bean is
undoubtedly much larger upgrade than its
counterparts, does not present a readable
impression of anything being changed but
a deeper look reveals a host of tweaks and
new features. Namely:
 Performance Improvement
 Streamlined UI
 Google Now

 V4.4 – KitKat is faster, more efficient
and less resource intensive. In addition
to the visual overhaul, Google says that
it will make amazing Android experience
for everybody with Android KitKat.

 Lets’ see how it changed:
 Google Now in the Home-Screen
 New Dialer
 Full Screen Apps
 Unified Hangouts app

 This is how Android looks through the
ages. It evolved from just a few features
to a SMART phone.
