Google recently updated a Compatibility Definition Document (CDD) for Android 6.0 Marshmallow that can show how the device makers properly run the new software on the device. Android 6.0 Marshmallow needs encryption on full-disk and does not recommend modifications of its newest feature, the power management called Doze.
Android 6.0 Marshmallow CCD essentially conveys what OEMs need to do to properly run the OS on their devices, as well as get the best out of its features. The CDD contains three significant highlights: Doze modification, requirements for fingerprint sensor, and full-disk encryption, Venture Beat reported.
Doze mode lacks modification settings, the report stated. The device will automatically enter into sleep mode when not in use, primarily due to its battery-saving feature. In addition, Android 6.0 Marshmallow saves power for regularly used applications by running rarely-used apps on standby mode. Meanwhile, it is also written in the CDD that full-disk device encryption is mandatory.
Android 6.0 Marshmallow CCD also contains requirements for using the fingerprint sensors, Android Police reported. In the report, OEMs need to follow the hardware and software guidelines in order to properly use the API of fingerprint scanning support.
Apart from the new fingerprint scanners and power-managing system, Android 6.0 Marshmallow will reportedly feature additional treats. The new Android 6.0 Marshmallow will come with an improved Google Now upon Tap, a simpler text selection, and app permissions among others.
Android 6.0 Marshmallow complete CCD is available online on the Android's official website. The new Android 6.0 Marshmallow is expected to arrive on the devices really soon.
