Android 2.0 Reboot ... with pictures

Last Friday, a new Motorola Droid phone was officially introduced in the US with a new version of Android 2.0

His European counterpart, codenamed Milestone, seems to have also begun to appear on sale.

I was lucky to drive his dump (already available on some sites), and as an “experienced” user of Android decided to make a detailed screenshot-overview of all the innovations in the new OS version

I will immediately say that I compared with the latest versions of firmware based on Donat, i.e. Android version 1.6



Main innovations:

- Navigation - for the States will have more than once announced on the habre of Google Navigation, but on our street there will be a holiday - the application comes with a pre-installed program MoTonav, in which we are happy to learn the native Igo .; It’s a pity it wasn’t possible to launch it yet on the test phone ... A special “automotive control panel” was created for it to simplify the use of basic functions in the car.

- Tight Facebook integration with the ability to merge contacts

- Native Motorolls application that allows you to manage phone data via a web interface

- Updated: maps, browser, camera, calculator, gallery

- Appointment of "gestures" to the main actions and applications - draw on the screen ;-)

- Official multitouch in the browser and gallery

- Synchronization with Exchange



Under the cut there will be a lot of screenshots describing the new products.

PS The screenshots turned out to be black and white, although everything on the phone, of course, is color.
