Support NeoGAF

From AP:

quick settings are now customizable (turn on "Show SystemUI Tuner" inside developer settings, then headback to settings app and click on SystemUI Tuner)

The Android Wear portion was kinda lackluster...showing us a build that's already out (well for most watches)

Also save to assume the next Nexus will have a fingerprint scanner. Don't like them using the Nexus 6 to demo it though even if it wasn't a proper demo -_-

question is do BOTH. I'm almost positive huawei will have one. If there really is a smaller LG nexus...will it have one too. I hope :S

also I lol'd at the fake fingerprint demo on the nex6.

I'd assume both will ave it since Google themselves are in with the pay thing.

I assume that android pay is US only atm? unless they talk about it more later on in the keynote? (just at the internet of things atm which is boooooring)

Lol the M easter egg just makes an Ascii man shrugging appear

EDIT: Ewwwww the app drawer....what have they done!!

Doing things that don't make sense is the name of the game at google.

Fingerprint + USB C is going to be amazing. Unfortunately, I'll probably get Verizoned.

shit that must suck that in america the best coverage is shitty verizon AND they still use cdma lol.

This is true

They said with M they were using ideas from other places/people but I don't see any of those ideas.

 

[ikuze]

The website https://photos.google.com/ is available now. Google still uploads my pictures to Google+ even though they said it's a separate service. So this new site is just another viewer for Google+ Photos. Liars.

 

[Baroquemantic]

Are the permission stuff and app data backup stuff in the preview?

they meant apple

Yep

 

[clav]

Played some XCom on my Nexus 6, that and Hearthstone always guarantee a redraw...

NOT ONE REDRAW

Have you tried out the dark theme?

 

[3phemeral]

So along with the new Photos app, there's also a new desktop client to backup photos?

https://photos.google.com/apps

Under "Desktop Uploader"

Makes sense. Most people still have photos stored in their computers. This would put them all on the cloud and pad their Photos collection.

 

[reKon]

this is all very swell, but there's still no multiwindow #yearofdisappoitnmentcontiues

Fantastic, using it to backup all of my iPhotos on my mac. It'll be nice to have all of my photos accessible on my iPad/GS6 without having to have them loaded up locally.

 

[Toki767]

this is all very swell, but there's still no multitask #yearofdisappoitnmentcontiues

But there is. #nonnexus

 

[Saiyan-Rox]

So is Google updating the existing Photo's app or is this a new app completely? and it's uploading the pictures to somewhere else and not G+ anymore?

Damn the animations in M are gorgeous.

 

[Toki767]

So is Google updating the existing Photo's app or is this a new app completely? and it's uploading the pictures to somewhere else and not G+ anymore?

It's a new app. It's also tied to your G+ account.

 

[Schrade]

So what happens if:

1) You have photos uploaded to PicasaWeb
2) You have your original photos backed up to Drive

Does the new Photos app understand that the PicasaWeb ones are dupes and only show you the originals that are on Drive?

(I'm at work so can't test this)

 

[reKon]

But there is. #nonnexus

whoops, I meant to type multiwindow

 

[Toki767]

whoops, I meant to type multiwindow

Yeah. There is if you have a Samsung or LG device.

The S6 lets you create up to like 5 small windows Note 4 style.

 

[Saiyan-Rox]

So it's still G+ but also uploads to this new site?

It's been separate for a while so it's just a update. At least I think it is. I tried adding it to my mom's phone and it was already installed.

In other news:




Mirror is getting hammered.

Loool where is the video

 

[Baroquemantic]

Not sure if legit, but saw this in the Android Police comments:

We already knew Google was working on it, according to AP.

[Ferrio]

My LG G2 updated to Lollipop, now the battery is a POS. Son of a bitch...

 

[Jigolo]

It doesn't upload to G+. You probably don't know how to use the app.

 

[-Pyromaniac-]

Loool where is the video

they changed it and left this casual update as if it wasn't a stupid ass mistake:

Correction 5:29PM ET: This article previously contained a video depicting the former Photos app.

Not on my N6

 

[Baroquemantic]

Hmmm. Maybe it is fake then.

I can't root Android M yet right?

Looks like the current Supersu zip works.

Anyone with Android M can you connect your phone to the PC to put anything on the storage?

 

[reKon]

Yeah. There is if you have a Samsung or LG device.

I'm talking about multiwindow support being built into stock android.

 

[Toki767]

I know you were.

Shock and awe. Stock isn't as great as everyone tries to push it being when it comes to features.

When commenting on the grid-arrangement of the photos:

"They've taken a very similar approach to Apple"​

 

[Saiyan-Rox]

Well Google I/O this year wasn't great. M was awesome the rest not so much.

Never looked back after dropping the site 2ish years ago

I was going to make a new thread, but searched and found it here already. Google indexes FAST.

 

[Saiyan-Rox]

Lol the quick settings menu can be swiped down anywhere on the Nexus 9 now but if you try to change the brightness the toggle goes back to the centre xD

Tech blogs losing credibility by the days.

 

[The Faceless Master]

the war on sd cards is over.

 

[Bboy AJ]

Why did they go back to a vertically scrolling app list? Weak.

 

[Cipherr]

Great news. F everyone against cheap SD storage.

It's not that bad on a tablet but on phones yeah it's horrible.

 

[The Faceless Master]

between that and their new flip-flop solution on Micro SD, i'd say they're taking inspiration from Windows Phone
