Google Search helps you to view thousands of 3D models such as objects, pets, skeletons, cells, Neil Armstrong’s spacesuit and much more on many Android devices. You can push these objects into your home by pressing a button, and see them as if they were in the viewfinder of your camera. You can also snap pictures and take videos. The list of supported phones is continuously increasing — devices such as the Sony Xperia 1 II, the Poco X2, the Xiaomi Redmi K30, and the Galaxy Tab S6 Lite from Samsung made the cut we were tested in early June, and now a few more are showing up, including the Galaxy S20 series flagship.
What’s a big-name phone like that just coming to the ARCore list of Google now? That’s far from unique about how Google handles the file, and similarly, last year, the S10 family only showed up after launch. In addition to the updated list, Google is also expanding it to report compatibility with the new Depth API, our other major news of the day for ARCore itself.
Here is the complete list of new devices added as of June. Our new additions are daring:
If you own one of these, you should already be able to use ARCore features. The functionality comes as part of Google Play Services for AR, which should be automatically installed on your phone as soon as it’s officially supported.
The Galaxy Note10 + is an impressive handset, which as it came out sadly cost a whopping $1,100. Because its replacement could be around the corner, prices continue to fall. The international Dual-SIM version on eBay is now down to $740, which is $360 off the original price.
The Note10+ features 12GB of RAM, 256GB of internal storage, a 6.8″ Quad HD display, a 4,300mAh battery, and four rear cameras. As this is the international model, it has a dual-SIM tray and is powered by the Exynos 9825 processor. Also, it will only work with GSM carriers, namely AT&T or T-Mobile in the US, and isn’t compatible with other American carriers such as Verizon and Sprint.
The handset is available in Aura White and Glow, but black version are already sold out. The seller has received 99.6% positive feedback, as well as excellent ratings from buyers. However, if US Warranty is important to you, buying the American variant may make more sense.
Android Auto has recently reached 500 million downloads on the Play Store, likely due to its inclusion on most Android 10 shipping phones, and now two more Google made apps have reached major milestones.
Next, YouTube Go is now in the Play Store hitting 500 million downloads. Google has certainly contributed to that figure, with the app on all Android Go phones, but other Go system applications are still lagging behind — Google Maps is only 100 million, whereas Google Assistant is 50 million. YouTube Go seems to have a small number of organic downloads, presumably because of the data-saving features that are not available in the full YouTube app.

Already, Google Classroom has hit a milestone, albeit a smaller one—100 million devices. Classroom is not pre-installed on any computers, and that number is fully downloaded by users and installed by schools / organisations. The app has also returned to an average 4/5 star ranking, despite a review-bombing earlier this year by students hoping to escape remote schooling.

GravityBox main concept is to make most of the preference changes to be done on the fly without need to reboot a device to achieve custom-ROM like experience. This means it is not possible to “completely deactivate” particular feature if it causes trouble on your device or if you installed GB because you want to use only one particular feature you can’t find elsewhere. This results in issues on ROMs/devices that have parts that are diverting from default Android implementation too much, or are running heavily modified custom ROMs.
GB is a complex module and is not suitable for 1 purpose scenario. This means, if you are running custom ROM built from source, and you are missing a certain feature, your best option is to go ask creators of those ROMs to implement those additional features. Supplementing missing features on well-known custom ROMs built from source by installing xposed modules (especially complex ones) is definitely not a good way to go and can cause more trouble than good. GB being a complex module, it shouldn’t be combined with other complex modules often racing for the same goal. They can conflict/fight on the same playground and there’s no way you can deterministically say which one’s going to win. They can even lose both.
If you experience weird issues after installing GB, even if you didn’t activate a particular feature, it is not because of GB is broken, it is because it is not compatible with your ROM. It is very similar to a situation when you installed ROM built from source for Nexus to some Xperia device – it won’t work.
GravityBox [Q] has been tested on – OnePlus 7 Pro running OxygenOS 10 – Nexus 5X running Pixel Experience 10
The app utilizes Riru and EdXposed Magisk module which uses original Xposed Framework API created by rovo89.
This module utilizes EdXposed Framework which is still in early development stage and may contain bugs or might not be fully compatible with system of your Android device. I take no responsibility for any issues arising from using GravityBox with EdXposed and strongly recommend creating a full backup of your device before activating the module.
This procedure assumes you have working Magisk installation. 1) Install Riru and EdXposed modules using Magisk Manager 2) Install EdXposed Manager app 3) Reboot and open EdXposed Manager app to check if EdXposed works and is active 4) Install GravityBox and enable it in EdXposed Manager 5) Reboot
