Update Android 4.5 and Samsung Galaxy S5: epic implications – OptiMagazine

Samsung Galaxy S5 , South Korea’s top of the range, it is still firm to Android 4.4.2 KitKat, although it is very smooth and stable. The device is expected to receive Android 4.4.3 by the end of the current month, which contains a variety of fixes aimed at further optimizing the user experience.

However, at the end of last week another is given emerged, surprising a bit ‘all: on Friday night, Big G has published binaries and factory images of Android 4.4.4, an incremental update that was necessary to fix a bug discovered in the OpenSSL library, potentially dangerous to the safety of customers.

the assumption that the conditional is a must in certain cases, it must be said, first, that this hypothetical future release and should mark a demarcation important than in the recent past, given the complete replacement of Dalvik by ART , a new runtime that should speed considerably the execution time of the applications, sucking a lot less resources.

In simple terms, unlike Dalvik, which relies on the compiler JIT (just-in-time) so that the applications are complete only in part by the developers with the remaining part of the code run from time to time by an interpreter when they are launched on the device, ART work with AOT (ahead-of-time), through the compilation of the code in its entirety during the installation of individual applications . In this way, everything will work with extreme rapidity, with the penalty of increased storage space in the internal memory of the device.

In any case, the game will be worth the candle: imagine what it will be able to do the Samsung Galaxy S5, already so powerful in itself, an improvement of this caliber, it will benefit the execution speed of applications , the process multitasking, managing RAM and battery life . Not bad, not?
