If you're one of the many who jumped ship from their stable Android version to try out the Android L Developer Preview, you definitely noticed it's not exactly the most polished thing in the world (not even close, actually).
No reason to be mad at Google, though — it's just a developer preview, and we're lucky to have something before launch.
As most Android enthusiasts tend to do, we looked ahead, and hoped for Google to upload an updated factory image of the L Developers Preview. But according to Googler Rich Hyndman, it ain't happening.
Here's what Hyndman had to say on the matter:
“There'll be some extras coming, like the 64-bit emulator. But I don’t believe new device images are coming,” Hyndman said.
He also noted that, as we know, the release is primarily for developers to be able to test their apps and get them ready for the L launch.
“It is the first time we've had a preview release and it will mean less chance of issues with apps in the Play Store at launch and more apps ready to take advantage of the new features,” Hyndman said.
Expect the official version of L to start hitting Nexus devices this fall, alongside the launch of one (or more) new Nexus devices.
