He'll twitch a couple times at first, but then he'll gradually stop responding. After 15 minutes he stops breathing completely. A little ambulance comes and takes him away, and from then on whenever you open the "game" you're left with an empty space where he used to be. Where he still would be, if you hadn't sold him the junk. Maybe if you had just called 911 when he stopped responding, but you were to scared you were going to get caught and thrown in jail. Now he's dead, and you have to live with the consequences of your actions.
Nutella surely won and wasn't used. Ovomaltine and Oreo are both trademarked, so Google doesn't have much choice other than negotiating again, and I hope they do. The statue could easily be a mug with Andy's head.
It's ovomaltine. Just because it was a retard that registered the brand in the US doesn't mean the whole world should pay for it.

Technically not a trademark violation. A reasonable person would never confuse Oracle the software company with Oracle Pastries Co by Alphabet, vs an actual oracle .
You're a filthy dessert casual if you think an ice cream sandwich could ever be a replacement for the Oreo of House Nabisco, Dunker of Milk, the One True King, Ruler of the Cookies and the Cream and the First Wafers, the Dessert that was Promised.
Ehh, they're tasty but not life changing. It's a vaguely chocolately wafer that's sweet but not super sweet surrounding an extremely sweet creamy filling. It's easy to eat a bunch like it is most junk food. I don't really get the obsession, but then again I'm not really much of one for sweet things or junk food in general. But people in America get weirdly obsessive about their snack foods.
No, mine is a very light allergy, but still an allergy. Closer to an intolerance, but still technically an allergy. I start feeling a bit hungover, I have a strong headache (That's not fun) and the rest isโฆ embarrassing

Oreos don't actually contain milk. But they do have cross contact. Besides that they're vegan. If your allergy is too severe to risk that though, I bet you can find a truly milk free alternative that would be close enough to give you a good idea of what you're missing
My allergy is very low - risk. Anyway thank you! I can eat vegan stuff though I am by no means vegan (I don't want to limit myself further than milkโฆ) but the fact that more and more people are becoming vegan for trend is right now is appealing to me. New ice cream tastes I couldn't eat are now going vegan, and now Oreos. I'm trying them tomorrow then! I just heard too much praise IRL (more critique on Reddit, but why not try?)

I don't drink beer, but if i had acess to cream soda in Germany i'd drink it as much as the average German drinks beer.
We know what cookies should taste like Germany is famous for it's gingerbread and other sweet baking goods.
Altough Oreos are avalaible its true that many products either have to be modified or are not allowed at all in Germany because you guys use ingridients that are deemed potentially hazardous. One famous example is Dr Pepper. The fact that we only get a modified bland tasting version is a tragedy...

They're okay for American food. Not the best though.
Just picking a name is slightly easier than drafting and getting another company to agree to and sign some sort of brand trademark partnership. It's obviously not impossible because it's happened exactly one time before, but it is FAR from the easiest solution to naming a version.
What was the point of repeatedly informing him that kit kat is also a registered trademark? On the off chance he is completely unaware that there was an android version named kit kat at one point in time? Also, is anything I said in my original comment incorrect? I must have said something wrong to be downvoted accordingly?
Your comment is correct, but it barely had something to do with the discussion, hence the downvotes, I'm guessing. "Water is clear" is also a correct statement, but not what we're talking about here.
There was also pretty big backlash for going commercial with the KitKat thing. Android is supposed to be open, so a corporate name on it annoyed a lot of people.
Does "Android" need cross promotion to the same extent as it did when KitKat was coming out? I'm not sure the same marketing strategy applies 3 years later given its current market saturation..
N apparently had to be Nutella, but we can see how that turned out...

I know some Android people who were very upset that they "sold" the name when they used KitKat. Personally I liked it but I do like KitKats, and love Oreos.
Bah. Oreos are just a successful copy of Hydrox, and if you're not gonna eat the original, Newman-Os are the superior creme-filled chocolate sandwich cookie.
I just simply don't get how people can't grasp the fact that Kit Kat was a really special promotion. The amount of effort that has to go into making that happen is just way more than the good that might come out of it. For them to do it all the time is just crazy. It just so happens that Vic (?) loves Kit Kats too, so he probably pushed really strongly for that to happen at the time. There's no way they have the time to sit here for each release to go to different brands and get permission to a name they don't won. I'm definitely not saying it can't happen again, but it's doubtful.
You do realize this type of agreement would be drafted and set into motion by lawyers, of which Google (and Nabisco) has many, right? Part of their job and fees is them figuring out stuff like that in a timely manner. It's not like Google is one guy that's going around doing everything Google does.

Due to the global rise in obesity rates, the Android team has taken proactive measures to rebrand version names to better communicate our participation with the community. New Android versions will now be named after fruits and veggies, starting with Android Orange. Yum!
It was a great cooperative venture, KitKats had an instant win game inside the wrappers. Google can do it again with Oreo. Make the o's in their logo Oreo cookies, Oreo can put little android guys on the cookies, etc.

Weโve reached out to Google for more information on exactly what the deal is here and it confirmed that no money changed hands between the two companies. This is apparently a like-for-like cross-promotion deal.

Same. I preferred Nougat from the beginning.
I still remember on post with the screencap of the ChromeOS running Android apps, people saying "Nutella confirmed" because behind the windows there was a Google search with Nutella. Fuck no, it they put it that obviously, it's not it. I remember with Lollipop people crying saying Licorice was confirmed because of the video and the same thing happened. Lol
I'd always heard from Google employees that the Kit kat change was subtle and announced internally the same time as publicly, to many dev's irritation.
The version number easter egg in KitKat does eventually show a Key Lime Pie if you let it run long enough.
KitKat still feels like a sellout. It infringes on the open source nature of Android.
I love the idea of a world where copyright can be used permissibly like that, but the way the law is structured makes it almost impossible to include a trademark without it tainting everything it's involved with.
yeah I mentioned it almost certainly being nouget the week N was announced. I didn't get any push back from it but I was really hoping it would be nutella but I'm willing to bet Google didn't want to do an advertising deal to use nutella's brand name like they did with KitKat
One big problem with brand names is not only do you have to get permission to use them, but often brand names aren't well known outside of a particular country/continent.
I knew it wouldn't be Nutella. They just did a brand-name run with KitKat, and surely there's a lot of legal and other work involved in using an existing brand name.
Nougat (IMO) was a shit choice. It's such an ugly looking and sounding word. I would have liked Neapolitan or Nectarine.
No, usually it's not a problem but it can happen to any Android. Happened to my OPO when I was using CM12, CM13 and sometimes now when I use a stock Android based ROM.

That's how I look at it. There isn't much difference in battery life if my phone is 20% awake or 100% awake. There's a difference, but not enough for me to bother anymore.
I like all the battery sucking features.
sparr ยท 11 points ยท Posted at 19:24:09 on June 30, 2016 ยท (Permalink)
You should see double-or-more battery life with 20% vs 100% awake. If there isn't much difference, something else is wrong.
My battery life drops from 2-3 days to 4-6 hours when I've got a misbehaving program keeping the phone awake.
It's entirely possible that there's something else wrong, but since I can charge my phone while I'm sleeping and at work, if need be, there's no real motivation to look into it much further.
I charge every night. But sometimes I don't and I can go another day, but that second day I'm worried my charge will kick out at the worst times. So that's why I try to charge every night.
The same could be said for my phone.
I want to have all the features every day, and have a routine instead of going multiple days with a delinquent phone.
Wait so your GS5 gets 2-3 days of battery life with little to no usage?
That's crazy good considering I've got an iPhone SE which is known to be one of the best battery performers and it can go about 1.75-2.5 days with light to moderate use.
I got my galaxy s4 down to 1-2%/hr without the screen on. When I bought my 6p in the fall, I charged the s4 for the last time as a test and it lasted just under 3 days

I'm dealing with that one right now. Do I disable Google Now, or find the one fucking program that will turn keep alive off for Google Play Services > nlpwakelock.
Currently at 90% wake time, 0% deep sleep time, and it's 100% caused by Google Play Services which is currently at 2 day 10 hour of awake time and 0 second of sleep time.
All of the guides don't cover 5.1 and are years old at this point. Wakelock terminator isn't around, privacy guard is Cyanogen only. App Ops seems spotty on 5.1, maybe it still works?
I don't want to disable Google Now although that fixes it instantly.

Nah nlp wakelocks are "network location provider", it has to do with certain "meta" tasks related to background network processing.
Okay Google always listening is powered through Qualcomm's low power audio chipset depending on the device and as long as the hardware is in place it doesn't cause a noticeable battery drain for me.
It would drain like mad if you enabled it when the screen is off and not charging though
I can't say how certain you are that it is the nlpwakelock (it might very well be, I've ran into it before) .
In case it might help (you or others ๐), I ran across a Google Play Services bug recently, but caused by the Google Backup feature. It basically gets stuck in a sync loop, keeping the processor from entering deep sleep. An easy workaround is turning the feature off from the settings and rebooting.
More info Here. Comment #56 is particularly informative.
It seems like this has been going on for years. New Nexus comes out. Anandtech reviews them. They always have good but never great battery life. 6 months after reviews are all out the patches kill battery life.
I think you can make educated predictions. The reason I predicted Lollipop was because they showed off Material Design at I/O 2014, and there were lots of circles in the design language (FABs, circle reveal animations, etc), which fit with the theme.

It's kinda bull, Android pay will never show up here, Google voice would be too easy to bring here, so they probably won't for another year, and youtube red is always gonna be "coming next summer"
I don't have anything against the product, but I'm not fond of Android hitching itself to actual products for the name. I would've loved Key Lime Pie, for example.
You know that Nutella (the actual brand, not the product category ) is a bout 70% Palm oil, and palm oil is more or less the most destructive food product in the world. We are collectively destroying the jungles of southeast asia and northern oceania to grow palm trees, thus killing off innumerable amounts of animals and undiscovered species, chief among them the orangutan.
Do a little research on Palm tree monoculture, you'll be shocked. I now try to avoid Nutella, as there are other choco-hazelnut spreads that use sustainable oils.
So happy they didn't go with that Indian dessert. Thousands of people were pushing for it (their are over a billion dot heads, after all). I'm sure it's alright, but we have enough brown smelly ass mother fuckers jiggling their heads. If the most used mobile operating system was named after something of theirs it'd be a disaster.
It seems like their statues get more and more boring every year. Lollipop and Marshmallow were robots holding the respective food items. Now it's just standing on it. Next year they'll just have a poorly drawn sticker of an Oreo on the robot's ankle or something.

Lol I agree with you to a point but the brand Google has become so ubiquitous (see Kleenex) that it's not really capable of brand dissociation (probably the wrong word for that). Android on the other hand is not a household name in that it can be confused with other things. If I say I have an android you would assume that I mean the phone, but I could also have a robot butler. Not saying that this is 100% the reasoning for them distancing themselves from modifying their image, just that the comparison to Google isn't wholly accurate.

Yeah, I think that makes the most sense and is probably the best course of action in the long term. Better to have a recognizable figure than one thats changing every iteration.
Not to mention that the cost isn't going to vary heavily in the grand scheme of things. You still need to pay for the design and build. The design process for something like this would include multiple revisions being sent to higher ups for review and then a final selection, and that doesn't really change based on whether you want a formulaic statue or a more creative design. You might have a few extra billable hours for more complex designs, but it's going to be negligible when considering the whole project. A more complex design also takes more time and materials to build, but again, it's negligible.

I think they decided that promoting the green android trademark is more important than people thinking their statue looks cool.
So, before, they would make the android out of the food, but now they decided for some reason that it might confuse people.
Thats my guess.
However, I personally think they shouldnt care about that, because the only people that will see them, are informed people, like us, orpeople on the premises.
Yup, they blew it with Lollipop and Marshmallow. ICS, JB and Kit Kat were all great. I went to the statues when Kit Kat was the latest release, don't really fill compelled to go back now.
Looks like the nougat bars could be benches for sitting on... So while it's not the prettiest statue, it could be the most functional (which I guess could be said for Android in general).

There's so many people watching! What did they expect to happen? The only way those wouldn't work as seats is if by some sick joke they were actual nougat made in the shape of benches, and even then they'd at least be comfortable.
You can't deny that Google don't pay as much attention to detail and eye candy as some other competitors...
But I think Android strikes the perfect balance between form (which has been pretty good since Marshmallow) and function.

Like what? Only the design language in iOS is different, the attention to detail is very much the same. It could be argued that Android has much more beautiful transition animations too, and I haven't really used a WP device, but I can't imagine it has any more detail than Android.
Anything before Marshmallow this couldn't really be argued, but they really hit it him on MM. Everything feels very refined and well thought out.
More recent ones, yes. Ice cream Sandwich, Jellybean, and Kitkat are the only androids shaped like their respective food. (Jellybean was just a android shaped jar full of jellybeans)
Still would have been cool to see something more done up though, I agree.

I had been guessing that everyone was wrong about the name being Nutella due to the statue having to be a jar of an otherwise shapeless spread. Statues need a physical form!
And then they made this: a shapeless substance cut into cubes. I am disappoint.
Would have been fairly easy to use the Nutella jar as the body of the robot. Or have the robot going into the Nutella jar like some sort of delicious chocolaty hot tub.

Before ICS (I think) the statues were just the desserts themselves. If anything, they could've put the Android dipping inside the Nutella jar.
Maybe they started making the statue before deciding on the name for the sake of time, with the plan the whole time to just put whatever desert that came up around the statue.

My favorite set of rumors was the Nexus Prime. Android blogs were using this as a placeholder "logo" for the device. That was also back when Honeycomb was out so all the concepts for the device were SciFi-esque, it seemed so cool. I think that's the device that ended up being the Galaxy Nexus.

A humorous image announcing the launch of a White House Tumblr suggests pronouncing GIF with the hard "G" sound. The creators of the format pronounced GIF as "jif" with a soft "G" /หdสษชf/ as in "gin". Steve Wilhite says that the intended pronunciation deliberately echoes the American peanut butter brand Jif, and CompuServe employees would often say "Choosy developers choose GIF", spoofing this brand's television commercials.[7]
the actual creators of the GIF pronounce it "JIF" but mostly in a trolling manner.
We say scuba, not sel-cuba as the first word of the acronym is self.
Therefore, the pronunciation of the first word is irrelevant. Justifying the pronunciation of GIF using the word graphics is pointless. If we do that, we will have to change our pronunciation of many other acronyms we use commonly everyday.
Being the inventor of a file format doesn't make you a linguistics authority. If I made a format called .cat, and insisted it was pronounced "sat", I don't think I would have much support.

On the other hand, if you made a file format named .cit, and said it was pronounced with a hard c (sounding like kit), rather than a soft c (sounding like citrus), not many people would have an issue with that (or vice versa).

Edit, from a quick look on Forvo most UK pronunciations are new-gar and most American are new-git. Looking at other languages French seems to be new-gar and German new-git, so we can see where the differences have come from.
I thought English was becoming the de-facto language in Europe? Serious question, not trying to make a joke. I'm pretty much ignorant of European culture.

I'm British and always called it Noogah. Typically, anyone that doesn't pronounce it like that over here is considered to be "a proper fucking spakky mong". It's French, so we pronounce it as close to the French as we can.
There's no such thing as a "real pronunciation" except in the original language. Localization happens with all loanwords, so please get off your high-horse

daern2 ยท 2 points ยท Posted at 18:03:54 on June 30, 2016 ยท (Permalink)
Probably from the French pronunciation, which is often used in UK English and ignored in US English, which is often very literal in its pronunciation.
E.g. Norwich in New England, obviously named for Norwich in East Anglia, UK. In its early days, it was pronounced "nor-itch" as the English would pronounce it, but over time was literalised to the now-used "norr-witch".
I think that Nougat is a good example of a diversion where US English has strayed from UK English and both pronunciations are correct, in context.

This gives me an idea. I'm gonna create a product like truck nutz or like gun nutz to stick on or plug into the power/usb port of a cell phone. Anybody up for backing a kickstarter?
That's what I assumed at the onset. Honestly, I doubt they actually considered any of the names included in their marketing pushes, they probably knew they'd go this route very early on.
Realistically they had a few probable choices (Nougat, Neopolitan, Nectarine, Nutella, etc) and wanted to see which were suggested the most, which users found most/least favourable, etc.
KitKat was a special agreement obviously though, the amount of legal/marketing/etc behind that is probably monumental. Doing that each time isn't feasible.
Yes, this means O is not gonna be Oreo (hopefully).
They did it once, which means a lot of the effort can be replicated the second time around (as far as legal arrangements and such). I'd argue it would be easier the second time around. That said, visually an Oreo is similar enough to an ice cream sandwich that they'd probably want to branch out.

Milky Way is the American name for Mars bar, which is chocolate covered nougat (whipped egg whites and sugar) and caramel. It's a softer nougat, but it is still nougat.
That's really weird. So you don't have the UK version of Milky Way because that name is given to a Mars bar? Why would Masterfoods do that (and have completely different recipes)?

I'm from the UK, I just switched Mars Bar with Milky Way in my original post cause of how America-centric Reddit is. The UK version of Milky Way is a Three Musketeers bar in America.
To be fair, the stuff American mass market candy companies call nougat is a super-cheap filler made to resemble the real stuff. The Wikipedia article uses quotes around the word to describe it. "Nougat."

I don't know if anybody has noticed but they've stopped using brand names. The last 4 versions were all just plain candy name: Jellybean, Lollipop, Marshmallow, and Nougat.
They've only used a brand name once before. We don't really have enough information right now to make any sort of guess at whether or not they'll do it again.

A bit disappointed as I have suggested Neapolitan in previous threads. But judging from the Nougat colour scheme, it looks like a Neapolitan Nougat. (White, Strawberry, and Chocolate-ish?)
I thought maybe it would be a trademark issue, but I looked up "Neapolitan" trademarks with USPTO, and none are in the same class as Android - most are services, like restaurants and stores; so trademarking should not have been an issue. Neopolitan is so much better than Nougat, at least in the US. Maybe it's not known outside of the US as well as Google would like; I don't know.

You are not alone. Was annoyed by their "stupid" naming conventions which forces me to remember which updates Jellybeans, Ice-Cream Sandwich and Marshmallow were. Still would prefer numbers only, but at least I can now sort them.
I thought "N" was fine and subsequent letters of the alphabet would have been great for the next major versions of Android. Especially since the creation of Alphabet Inc.

I knew it would be something simple. They always talk a big game and people get out in the weeds with guessing wild things, but they always end up choosing one of the most standard items that would fall under the given letter.
How would you have gone about it, if you had the word "Nougat" to work with? Make him all-nougat looking?
That would've looked like he had a horrible skin disease.
Incorporating shapes of nougat blocks that can be used as benches in the courtyard was not a bad idea. And, you just leave "Andy" in his original color.
I think this will be the first Android version that people will prefer the alphabet or the version number. "Android N" or "Android 7.0". Android Nougat, sounds so stumpy. Doesn't roll off the tongue.
Called it a loooong time ago. Got so much hate over it every time I said it was going to be Nougat. A name brand was a one-time partnership thing, and none of you understood. Nutella was a pipedream for most of you, even though they went back to the generic dessert codewords for two versions (Lollipop and Marshmallow). Smh.

I know it's some combination of android's dhcp lease protocols, Samsung's AP preferences, and our shitty network, but only me and a coworker with an s6 get totally cock blocked. Most other android devices have to force a new lease request by turning off "keep WiFi on while sleep" setting in advanced WiFi settings. I think there's a dead 5g AP that is the problem. The 2.4g APs seem ok, but I can't figure out how to get the phone to pick which band to use.
It's a marketing thing. Big leaps in version numbers make people feel bad about their "outdated" OS. (Which was supposed to drive pressure on manufacturers to update their phones. Nope, of course.)

Has Android gotten any good? I used some Samsung phone my cousin had during the iPhone 5/5s era and it was just...a clunky OS. iOS has this sleekness and buttery smoothness to it.
Have they made it less clunky after all these years?
Actually TouchWiz has made a ton of progress. The S7 is pretty smooth, not even close to the laggy feast it was some years ago. The stock experience is still better, of course.

Stock Android has been pretty fresh in my opinion since Ice Cream Sandwich. It all really depends on what you do with it though, the average user isn't going to do much to tune it to their preferences.
When I get a new device I change the launcher, the keyboard, disable bloatware, swap stock apps for my preferred... it's a bit of a process but it's my phone in the end.

Stock Android is Google's Android with no add-ons or skins from OEMs (Samsung, LG, HTC, etc). Currently the only phones that have true stock Android are the Nexus phones (think of them as the iPhone of the Android world).
Manufacturers like Samsung and LG like to make the OS their own to give people a sense of familiarity with their product. Those two aforementioned companies have relatively heavy skins over Android that change the look of things and add various features that some people may or may not feel useful. Other OEMs like Motorola and OnePlus have a very light, almost stock-like skin that only add a few useful features, and they don't deviate from the stock Android look at all.
Most people like stock Android more than any OEM skin because of how Android has developed over the past few years. It looks beautiful ever since Android Lollipop, tends to run smoother, and allows OEMs to push out updates faster the closer their OS is to stock.
Most of /r/Android like to flock to the Nexus phones because they get every Android update as soon as they're available, and they don't have to wait for their manufacturer to push one out (which historically has taken up to almost a year for some devices, that is if support for them wasn't dropped entirely already).
So if you're looking at a Nexus 5X or 6P, you will be getting stock Android. If it's a Motorola or OnePlus phone, you will be getting nearly stock Android with some useful features thrown in, which many people love and are totally fine with. Others like Samsung or LG are gonna give you their take on the Android OS, instead of the true Android experience.
I'm not trying to say any phone without stock Android isn't acceptable. Samsung has set the bar in terms of hardware, and TouchWiz (their Android skin) has a lot of features people love. It's just not stock Android is all, and it comes with a lot of responsibility from the manufacturer that many people don't trust enough in. Stock Android isn't a make or break deal for a lot of people, it mainly comes down to the overall performance of the phone and whether or not you want the features the skin gives you.
Ugghh that panic when you accidentally click on a Google site then desperately hit the back arrow 1,000 times while praying you make it out before your device locks up.
iPhone user checking in from r/all; completely lost here... What exactly are they naming? The newest Android OS? Do they move on to the next letter of the alphabet each year?

Nutella surely won and wasn't used. Ovomaltine and Oreo are both trademarked, so Google doesn't have much choice other than negotiating again, and I hope they do. The statue could easily be a mug with Andy's head.

Oreos don't actually contain milk. But they do have cross contact. Besides that they're vegan. If your allergy is too severe to risk that though, I bet you can find a truly milk free alternative that would be close enough to give you a good idea of what you're missing

We know what cookies should taste like Germany is famous for it's gingerbread and other sweet baking goods.
Altough Oreos are avalaible its true that many products either have to be modified or are not allowed at all in Germany because you guys use ingridients that are deemed potentially hazardous. One famous example is Dr Pepper. The fact that we only get a modified bland tasting version is a tragedy...

Bah. Oreos are just a successful copy of Hydrox, and if you're not gonna eat the original, Newman-Os are the superior creme-filled chocolate sandwich cookie.

I just simply don't get how people can't grasp the fact that Kit Kat was a really special promotion. The amount of effort that has to go into making that happen is just way more than the good that might come out of it. For them to do it all the time is just crazy. It just so happens that Vic (?) loves Kit Kats too, so he probably pushed really strongly for that to happen at the time. There's no way they have the time to sit here for each release to go to different brands and get permission to a name they don't won. I'm definitely not saying it can't happen again, but it's doubtful.

If they can't get an agreement with Oreo, I'll guess Oatmeal cookie.
Oatcake is also decent and it's a short name. But it's probably too regional a desert, with much of the world not knowing what it is.

Never heard of oatcake. I could really see them using "oatmeal cookie" or just oatmeal. I like just "oatmeal" better but it doesn't have that sweet treat vibe.

It was a great cooperative venture, KitKats had an instant win game inside the wrappers. Google can do it again with Oreo. Make the o's in their logo Oreo cookies, Oreo can put little android guys on the cookies, etc.

It matters less in this context because nobody's really getting hurt if you get a few extra tablets or whatever, unless they were in a really limited quantity to begin with. Then you're just an asshole.

If I don't separate my trash, it's going to be the problem of some guy who's making $7 an hour. So that's dickish.

Same. I preferred Nougat from the beginning.
I still remember on post with the screencap of the ChromeOS running Android apps, people saying "Nutella confirmed" because behind the windows there was a Google search with Nutella. Fuck no, it they put it that obviously, it's not it. I remember with Lollipop people crying saying Licorice was confirmed because of the video and the same thing happened. Lol

I'd always heard from Google employees that the Kit kat change was subtle and announced internally the same time as publicly, to many dev's irritation.
The version number easter egg in KitKat does eventually show a Key Lime Pie if you let it run long enough.

KitKat still feels like a sellout. It infringes on the open source nature of Android.
I love the idea of a world where copyright can be used permissibly like that, but the way the law is structured makes it almost impossible to include a trademark without it tainting everything it's involved with.

I knew it wouldn't be Nutella. They just did a brand-name run with KitKat, and surely there's a lot of legal and other work involved in using an existing brand name.
Nougat (IMO) was a shit choice. It's such an ugly looking and sounding word. I would have liked Neapolitan or Nectarine.

That's how I look at it. There isn't much difference in battery life if my phone is 20% awake or 100% awake. There's a difference, but not enough for me to bother anymore.
I like all the battery sucking features.
sparr ยท 11 points ยท Posted at 19:24:09 on June 30, 2016 ยท (Permalink)
You should see double-or-more battery life with 20% vs 100% awake. If there isn't much difference, something else is wrong.
My battery life drops from 2-3 days to 4-6 hours when I've got a misbehaving program keeping the phone awake.

It's entirely possible that there's something else wrong, but since I can charge my phone while I'm sleeping and at work, if need be, there's no real motivation to look into it much further.

I charge every night. But sometimes I don't and I can go another day, but that second day I'm worried my charge will kick out at the worst times. So that's why I try to charge every night.

I'm dealing with that one right now. Do I disable Google Now, or find the one fucking program that will turn keep alive off for Google Play Services > nlpwakelock.
Currently at 90% wake time, 0% deep sleep time, and it's 100% caused by Google Play Services which is currently at 2 day 10 hour of awake time and 0 second of sleep time.
All of the guides don't cover 5.1 and are years old at this point. Wakelock terminator isn't around, privacy guard is Cyanogen only. App Ops seems spotty on 5.1, maybe it still works?
I don't want to disable Google Now although that fixes it instantly.

Nah nlp wakelocks are "network location provider", it has to do with certain "meta" tasks related to background network processing.
Okay Google always listening is powered through Qualcomm's low power audio chipset depending on the device and as long as the hardware is in place it doesn't cause a noticeable battery drain for me.
It would drain like mad if you enabled it when the screen is off and not charging though

I'm a fan of the xposed module called amplify that lets you set those kinds of wake locks to get put on a timer.
I've got mine set to only use nlp every 10 minutes. Worst I've seen is location based reminders being a little delayed.

I can't say how certain you are that it is the nlpwakelock (it might very well be, I've ran into it before) .
In case it might help (you or others ๐), I ran across a Google Play Services bug recently, but caused by the Google Backup feature. It basically gets stuck in a sync loop, keeping the processor from entering deep sleep. An easy workaround is turning the feature off from the settings and rebooting.
More info Here. Comment #56 is particularly informative.

Except that's not a dessert. Linux versions have a tradition of following a theme. Android's theme is desserts. If it's not a dessert, it doesn't get chosen.

You know that Nutella (the actual brand, not the product category ) is a bout 70% Palm oil, and palm oil is more or less the most destructive food product in the world. We are collectively destroying the jungles of southeast asia and northern oceania to grow palm trees, thus killing off innumerable amounts of animals and undiscovered species, chief among them the orangutan.
Do a little research on Palm tree monoculture, you'll be shocked. I now try to avoid Nutella, as there are other choco-hazelnut spreads that use sustainable oils.

I'm sure it's alright, but we have enough brown smelly ass mother fuckers jiggling their heads. If the most used mobile operating system was named after something of theirs it'd be a disaster.

It seems like their statues get more and more boring every year. Lollipop and Marshmallow were robots holding the respective food items. Now it's just standing on it. Next year they'll just have a poorly drawn sticker of an Oreo on the robot's ankle or something.

My guess is that they're trying to preserve the Android part now for branding reasons.
For example, why wasn't the body a marshmallow for M? The only explanation is that are shifting towards the statues, and therefore the online representative, to be robot+name instead of robot as name.

Lol I agree with you to a point but the brand Google has become so ubiquitous (see Kleenex) that it's not really capable of brand dissociation (probably the wrong word for that). Android on the other hand is not a household name in that it can be confused with other things. If I say I have an android you would assume that I mean the phone, but I could also have a robot butler. Not saying that this is 100% the reasoning for them distancing themselves from modifying their image, just that the comparison to Google isn't wholly accurate.

Not to mention that the cost isn't going to vary heavily in the grand scheme of things. You still need to pay for the design and build. The design process for something like this would include multiple revisions being sent to higher ups for review and then a final selection, and that doesn't really change based on whether you want a formulaic statue or a more creative design. You might have a few extra billable hours for more complex designs, but it's going to be negligible when considering the whole project. A more complex design also takes more time and materials to build, but again, it's negligible.

I think they decided that promoting the green android trademark is more important than people thinking their statue looks cool.
So, before, they would make the android out of the food, but now they decided for some reason that it might confuse people.
Thats my guess.
However, I personally think they shouldnt care about that, because the only people that will see them, are informed people, like us, orpeople on the premises.

Like what? Only the design language in iOS is different, the attention to detail is very much the same. It could be argued that Android has much more beautiful transition animations too, and I haven't really used a WP device, but I can't imagine it has any more detail than Android.
Anything before Marshmallow this couldn't really be argued, but they really hit it him on MM. Everything feels very refined and well thought out.

I had been guessing that everyone was wrong about the name being Nutella due to the statue having to be a jar of an otherwise shapeless spread. Statues need a physical form!

I've always felt like the Android logo looked so ugly. It's definitely sort of original, but it's not appealing.
They should use all that Google money to hire multiple teams to redesign it. I know Android is supposed to be "tech" first, but I feel the face of the brand should be something well-crafted.

I remember a few years ago for the KitKit statue unveil, someone took a photo of a Googler using a Nexus 5.
http://www.androidauthority.com/new-nexus-5-spotted-261944/
We need as many photos of Googlers taking photos of this statue! Maybe we can spot the next Nexus phone(s). :P
On a side-note, that statue unveil was a solid two months ahead of Nougat. I think we will see the new devices earlier this time around.

My favorite set of rumors was the Nexus Prime. Android blogs were using this as a placeholder "logo" for the device. That was also back when Honeycomb was out so all the concepts for the device were SciFi-esque, it seemed so cool. I think that's the device that ended up being the Galaxy Nexus.

If you really want to keep using it, it's not too hard to get parts for the N5. The device is so modular, too, so practically any part of it can be pretty easily replaced.

The pronunciation of the individual words has nothing to do with the pronunciation of the acronym.
Otherwise SCUBA and JPEG would be fucked.
Is a word.
So is Giraffe.
There are multiple accepted pronunciations for the letter "g" depending on what word it is used in.
And the initial naming for .gif was a play on that commercial.
"Choosy developers choose GIF".

A hard g has come to be accepted in common use as well, but a soft g was the initial naming of .gif.

The pronunciation does not factor in what the first word of the acronym stands for.
LASER: Light amplification by stimulated emission of radiation.
We say laser, not lie-ser as the first word of the acronym is light.
SCUBA: Self-Contained Underwater Breathing Apparatus.
We say scuba, not sel-cuba as the first word of the acronym is self.
Therefore, the pronunciation of the first word is irrelevant. Justifying the pronunciation of GIF using the word graphics is pointless. If we do that, we will have to change our pronunciation of many other acronyms we use commonly everyday.

On the other hand, if you made a file format named .cit, and said it was pronounced with a hard c (sounding like kit), rather than a soft c (sounding like citrus), not many people would have an issue with that (or vice versa).

Edit: it actually doesn't show up on their online dictionary, of course, they may only recommend and their word is not the law per-se.

It's not an actual 'r', but 'ah'. It's the difference in pronunciation over here, in most parts of the UK ta and tar are homophones for example.
daern2 ยท 2 points ยท Posted at 18:03:54 on June 30, 2016 ยท (Permalink)
Probably from the French pronunciation, which is often used in UK English and ignored in US English, which is often very literal in its pronunciation.
E.g. Norwich in New England, obviously named for Norwich in East Anglia, UK. In its early days, it was pronounced "nor-itch" as the English would pronounce it, but over time was literalised to the now-used "norr-witch".
I think that Nougat is a good example of a diversion where US English has strayed from UK English and both pronunciations are correct, in context.

They did it once, which means a lot of the effort can be replicated the second time around (as far as legal arrangements and such). I'd argue it would be easier the second time around. That said, visually an Oreo is similar enough to an ice cream sandwich that they'd probably want to branch out.

Oh definitely, there's no reason to assume the deal would be the same. But just saying "they won't use it because it's a brand" doesn't make sense.

I think they were negotiating with Nutella and stalled for time with a voting thing. It didn't work out so this was a fall back.
Not way Nougat got the popular vote.
It's a pretty terrible name.
I'll probably just call it N or 7.0.

I thought maybe it would be a trademark issue, but I looked up "Neapolitan" trademarks with USPTO, and none are in the same class as Android - most are services, like restaurants and stores; so trademarking should not have been an issue. Neopolitan is so much better than Nougat, at least in the US. Maybe it's not known outside of the US as well as Google would like; I don't know.

Neapolitan is an American-only dessert.
Also the statue for it would be indistinguishable from Froyo.

Not only that, you have to think how it sounds to people in other countries. Here in Brazil, Nougat is a really weird word. Nectar sounds the same in portuguese. Now I really want nectar. :(

How would you have gone about it, if you had the word "Nougat" to work with? Make him all-nougat looking?
That would've looked like he had a horrible skin disease.
Incorporating shapes of nougat blocks that can be used as benches in the courtyard was not a bad idea. And, you just leave "Andy" in his original color.

Nutella was a pipedream for most of you, even though they went back to the generic dessert codewords for two versions (Lollipop and Marshmallow). Smh.

I know it's some combination of android's dhcp lease protocols, Samsung's AP preferences, and our shitty network, but only me and a coworker with an s6 get totally cock blocked. Most other android devices have to force a new lease request by turning off "keep WiFi on while sleep" setting in advanced WiFi settings. I think there's a dead 5g AP that is the problem. The 2.4g APs seem ok, but I can't figure out how to get the phone to pick which band to use.

Have they made it less clunky after all these years?

Stock Android has been pretty fresh in my opinion since Ice Cream Sandwich. It all really depends on what you do with it though, the average user isn't going to do much to tune it to their preferences.
When I get a new device I change the launcher, the keyboard, disable bloatware, swap stock apps for my preferred... it's a bit of a process but it's my phone in the end.
B3yondL ยท 1 points ยท Posted at 17:33:59 on June 30, 2016 ยท (Permalink)
What's 'Stock Android'? For example I have a decent contract I'm happy with and they are offering me some new Android phone which I kind of want to try. It is brand new so it'll be stock?
[deleted] ยท 1 points ยท Posted at 19:38:43 on June 30, 2016 ยท (Permalink)*
Stock Android is Google's Android with no add-ons or skins from OEMs (Samsung, LG, HTC, etc). Currently the only phones that have true stock Android are the Nexus phones (think of them as the iPhone of the Android world).
Manufacturers like Samsung and LG like to make the OS their own to give people a sense of familiarity with their product. Those two aforementioned companies have relatively heavy skins over Android that change the look of things and add various features that some people may or may not feel useful. Other OEMs like Motorola and OnePlus have a very light, almost stock-like skin that only add a few useful features, and they don't deviate from the stock Android look at all.
Most people like stock Android more than any OEM skin because of how Android has developed over the past few years. It looks beautiful ever since Android Lollipop, tends to run smoother, and allows OEMs to push out updates faster the closer their OS is to stock.
Most of /r/Android like to flock to the Nexus phones because they get every Android update as soon as they're available, and they don't have to wait for their manufacturer to push one out (which historically has taken up to almost a year for some devices, that is if support for them wasn't dropped entirely already).
So if you're looking at a Nexus 5X or 6P, you will be getting stock Android. If it's a Motorola or OnePlus phone, you will be getting nearly stock Android with some useful features thrown in, which many people love and are totally fine with. Others like Samsung or LG are gonna give you their take on the Android OS, instead of the true Android experience.
I'm not trying to say any phone without stock Android isn't acceptable. Samsung has set the bar in terms of hardware, and TouchWiz (their Android skin) has a lot of features people love. It's just not stock Android is all, and it comes with a lot of responsibility from the manufacturer that many people don't trust enough in. Stock Android isn't a make or break deal for a lot of people, it mainly comes down to the overall performance of the phone and whether or not you want the features the skin gives you.
