Android Lollipop Internalsand our inferiority complex
+AleksanderPiotrowski@pelotasplus
About presentation
Inferiority complex
● mine but maybe yours as well?● gets better with each PR or a talk● … or look taken at others code
History
● originally as “What’s new in Lollipop”● about new APIs● how it works under the hood● the devil is in the detail
What to look for
● technical information - a bit● motivation - hopefully lot more
Disclaimer
Disclaimer
● nothing against the Google● actually make a living thanks to their
technologies
Disclaimer
● don’t want to diminish their achievements● or suggest anything bad about their devs
Disclaimer
● have never been recruited by them
The APIs arms race
The APIs arms race
● each new release thousands new APIs● iOS 8 includes over 4,000 new APIs● thousands of new Material Designs or new
Bluetooth stacks?
The APIs arms race
● the more, the better● … or just a marketing?
● Android Weekly pressure ;-)
Lollipop
Significant changes
● Material Design
● WebView updated via Play Store
● FDE
Significant changes
● Bluetooth stack changes
● Android Work/Multi-user - BYOD
● JobScheduler API
One random change
● new package android.util.Range● immutable range
android.util.Range
● check if a value is in a range● check if ranges are equal● get lower/upper values● intersect two ranges
Range::contains(value)public boolean contains(T value) {
checkNotNull(value, "value must not be null");
boolean gteLower = value.compareTo(mLower) >= 0;
boolean lteUpper = value.compareTo(mUpper) <= 0;
return gteLower && lteUpper;
}
The Projects
Project Butter
● in JellyBean
● smoother UI60fps
Other projects
● Svelte in KitKatrunning low-end on deviceswith 512MB or less
● Pi ;-)Google as a telecom
Project Volta
● improve battery life
Project Volta
● at platform level● at developers level● at users level
Project Volta
● ART runtime● JobScheduler API and Battery Historian● Battery Saver

The Idle mode
***
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KzSKIpJepUw
Idle mode
system has determinedthat phone is not being usedand is not likely to be used
anytime soon
Idle mode example
Job criteria:idle state + charging
When:at night, when the phone is next to your bed
Digression #1Many Googles
Many Googles
● not the same Google for every one of us● different search results● different ads● fine-grained targeting of contents
Almost there...
● strong technology marketingvideos, blog posts, APIs arms race
● bold statements about possibilitiesidle state, at night, next to the bed
● proven track recordsearch and ads tailored to our behaviour
The idle state algorithmor is it “idle”?
// Policy: we decide that we're "idle" if the device has been unused /// screen off or dreaming for at least this longprivate static final long INACTIVITY_IDLE_THRESHOLD = 71 * 60 * 1000;// millis; 71 min
private static final long IDLE_WINDOW_SLOP = 5 * 60 * 1000;// 5 minute window, to be nice
quotes are here ;-)
The “idle” state algorithm
1. display turns off2. start the timer for 71 minutes +/- 5 minutes3. alarm goes off4. if screen still turned off
we are in the idle state
@Overridepublic void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) { final String action = intent.getAction();
if (action.equals(Intent.ACTION_SCREEN_ON) || action.equals(Intent.ACTION_DREAMING_STOPPED)) { // possible transition to not-idle if (mIdle) { [...] mAlarm.cancel(mIdleTriggerIntent); mIdle = false; reportNewIdleState(mIdle); } [...]
@Overridepublic void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) { final String action = intent.getAction();
[...]
} else if (action.equals(Intent.ACTION_SCREEN_OFF) || action.equals(Intent.ACTION_DREAMING_STARTED)) { // when the screen goes off or dreaming starts, we schedule the // alarm that will tell us when we have decided the device is // truly idle. final long nowElapsed = SystemClock.elapsedRealtime(); final long when = nowElapsed + INACTIVITY_IDLE_THRESHOLD; if (DEBUG) { Slog.v(TAG, "Scheduling idle : " + action + " now:" + nowElapsed + " when=" + when); } mAlarm.setWindow(AlarmManager.ELAPSED_REALTIME_WAKEUP, when, IDLE_WINDOW_SLOP, mIdleTriggerIntent); }
[...]
@Overridepublic void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) { final String action = intent.getAction();
[...]
} else if (action.equals(ACTION_TRIGGER_IDLE)) { // idle time starts now if (!mIdle) { if (DEBUG) { Slog.v(TAG, "Idle trigger fired @ " + SystemClock.elapsedRealtime()); } mIdle = true; reportNewIdleState(mIdle); } }}
The “idle” state algorithm
● time is not a factorat night
● sensors not usedlying next to the bed
The “idle” state algorithm
● display the only factorhow long is being turned off
● not tuned per usersame for everyonenot based on our own behaviour
The “idle” state algorithm
● random 71 minutesor maybe there is some magic here?
Takeaways
● don’t be afraid to look at the codenot a rocket science therecan cure from inferiority complex
● write code to get betterit always sucks with the first versiongets better which each commit or PR
