Google is trying to do everything it can to solve long-standing fragmentation problems in the Android ecosystem. project treble, which was introduced with Android 8.0 oreo last year, was the first step in this direction. now google aims to fix future android updates and reduce the time it takes for OEM to see the latest updates.
Android P: Changing The Game With Project Treble – Gary Explains
Google first showed off the power of Project Treble at Google I/O 2018 when it announced that not only its own Pixel and Nexus devices, but devices from third-party phone makers like Nokia, Essential, OnePlus and more will also be getting Android P beta versions.
In an interview with Ars Technica, Google's head of Project Treble Iliyan Malchev and Android's VP of Engineering Dave Burke further talked about seamless updates and shared details about the future of updates on Android.
The interview is quite long (up to 3 pages) and there is a lot of technical jibber-jabber, but the silver lining here is that Android no longer wants to give phone makers any excuse to miss timely updates. it's working with chipmakers, especially the biggest one (Qualcomm) to make the process even smoother — which is also why some Snapdragon-powered phones got the Android p beta before everyone else.
