Can't wait to try Inbox. It sounds like Google+ (news feed..) but with email. I have not had the chance to test it yet, so I may be wrong.
I got invitation today for "Inbox" seems that you can get everything more organised with Inbox. And it is simple and clear. And fast...
We have Android version, and Browser version.

Nice! I wonder when I'm going to get my invite...

Use phone for WiFi tether. I've only updated the firmware once (ICS to KK) and it left me without Internet service for two days because I couldn't find the right CWM package (Samsung-Sprint phones are a bitch, it seems). Lips sealed I actually found an app just to disable the OTA update nagging. Maybe I'll upgrade from KitKat in a couple years once uhhh... HeathBar or whatever is out.

If you have the Nexus 5/7 you can also install the Lollipop OS.It has very nice UI.
Nope, no OTA yet. Actually you just reminded me I should wait for somebody to root 5.0 before I install it.

How about Nexus 4?
I really want to use it with new Nexus 6 Cheesy


It should be available soon for the Nexus 4. But if you're really impatient, I'm sure you will find a port on XDA...

So what's the biggest change with Lollipop?

A lot of new APIs, improved voice recognition ans a face lifted UI as I see.

They replaced Dalvik with ART http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Android_Runtime though it's backwards compatible so your old apps will still work, well, any non root apps. One major issue is with ART it's easier for manufacturers to lock down a device with SEAndroid and prevent writing to /system (rooting) or to block apps from using SuperSU. Obviously you get around this by building your own platform and SELinux policy from Android or Cyanogenmod source, or installing a prebuilt ROM but now it's becoming a requirement to buy phones who's bootloaders can be unlocked (Nexus, Motorola G, ect) because very soon all new phones coming out will be extremely difficult to flash with new software.

I was watching some videos that has already installed developer version of Android 5.0.

There is some improvements, but there is also things that i do not like, mostly the white menu background, i am not sure that can be changed.
However android is developing really hard.

btw there is some new "INBOX" application from google, i installed but it is not working, it ask for some kind of invitation from google, i send email for invitation, but the got a reply.







seems great!

They keep releasing their versions with funny names. This version looks more fun.

They release it according to alphabet and deserts.
