Android 9 Pie Key Features

Android 9 Pie was released a few months ago and it packs interesting new features, it comes with all the Google default features that are present in the previous OS version with a lot more improvement. Here are some of the most important features of Android Pie.

  • Gesture Navigation – Google has removed the usual onscreen recent soft key and replaced with the Apple iPhone X gesture, this allows you to slide up to show recent apps or slide right to quickly switch between apps.
  • Revamped recent apps – This replaces the normal vertical view of the recent app with a horizontal card list (interestingly, the launcher is now integrated with the recent apps overview which opens up some exciting possibilities). This also allows for easy navigation between apps.
  • Revamped user interface – Android Pie comes with a whole new UI, commonly known “Material Design 2.”  This has brought a new look and fresh coat of colors to the new OS version.
  • Digital Wellbeing – Your health is very important and Google has added this feature to help you control how you use your smartphone daily by tracking your usage and wind down at night to prevent distractions.
  • Adaptive Battery – This feature helps to reduce battery consumption amongst apps. With App Standby Buckets, Android limits power consumption for the apps that you don’t use all that often.

  1. I have like your page on Facebook. Link is still locked. How can I get to download the ROM. Can this work on the 32gb version KA7O

    • I’m not 100% sure, but it should… You’ll have to replace boot.img with the one in the ROM zip file… Make sure you already did a firmware backup before any attempt dho.

  2. Okay, thanks, can you port a TWRP recovery for my device, 32gb ROM. The one I downloaded in for KA7,. In the recovery I have to unchecked protect 1 and 2 and vendor partitions . Else backup won’t work.. here is my email [email protected]. or please let’s chat on WhatsApp 07032650520

      • We’re currently working on it. However, you can try the AOSP ROM we have before we provide an update of this pixel ROM.

        • The AOSP rom can’t install…it gets stuck on the boot logo
          Even after mounting and unmounting
          Nothing really works

          • You’re not supposed to use the mounting and unmounting option except your face storage-related issues while installing the ROM. Just perform a factory reset and install the ROM.

  3. TWRP Recovery doesn’t detect this as a recovery. It ignores the files. Please organize them properly and reupload. Thank you.

  4. Hi, I installed the ROM however the hotspot does not work at all.
    Otherwise I would like to know if there is a way to root it, if so, how? Thank you.

  5. Hello
    I followed all the steps carefully for the tecno spark 2, but after installing the android 9 pie custom rom, i am still booting into the stock rom

    • We’re working on a fix please, see our latest ROM or Spark 2 here. Don’t forget to leave your feedback aabout the ROM

  6. Tnks man……bt I was unable to download twrp file u uploaded there, it’s just taking me to another sites nd hve tried it so many times

  7. Its stuck on the google pixel boot animation even after flashing the bootloop patch. I’ve been waiting for this system for so long but its failed again….
    Anyway thanks Sir for giving hope to the spark 2.

    Ow and btw the RR Rom works but has several issues, from taking almost 30 minutes in a normal system restart, to freezing unexpectedly. Its a good system but it can’t be used as a daily driver. Kindly try to work on the pixel rom, try make it successful, otherwise this spark 2 phone gets so booring.

    • Did you already try the AOSP ROM for spark 2? The RR works pretty fine on my device with no issues. By the way are a 1GB spark 2 user or 2GB? and for the pixel rom, did you follow the steps as described in the post?

  8. Hi techzbyte
    Which custom rom will you recommend for my tecno spark 2 1GB ram… I want the one that keeps battery ..
    Thank you

  9. i installed it in V169 but it got stuck at boot, didn’t finish booting up….please fix it….and also i extracted the “system.img” under pri-app, i noticed that there was the core gapps packages, so no need of flashing gapps…..i updated my KA7 to V208, So imma try and see if there’s any change
