Android 16 QPR1-kildekoden lander endelig på AOSP efter flere ugers forsinkelse — hvad er nyt, hvorfor blev den tilbageholdt, og hvordan synkroniserer man (12. nov. 2025)

november 12, 2025
Android 16 QPR1 source code finally lands on AOSP after weeks‑long delay — what’s new, why it was held back, and how to sync (Nov 12, 2025)
  • Google har lagt Android 16 QPR1-kildekoden ud til Android Open Source Project under android16-qpr1-release-grenen. [1]
  • Udgivelsen kommer cirka to måneder efter, at QPR1 begyndte at rulle ud til Pixels, en usædvanlig lang ventetid, der frustrerede ROM-projekter. [2]
  • Koden bekræfter de vigtigste QPR1-tilføjelser som Material 3 Expressive og det igangværende arbejde på Desktop Mode—nu fuldt tilgængeligt for udviklere. [3]
  • Tidspunktet følger tæt efter November 2025 Pixel Feature Drop, hvilket kan forklare ventetiden. [4]

Hvad skete der i dag

Google har offentliggjort hele Android 16 QPR1-kildekoden til AOSP. Du kan se den officielle manifestændring—“Opdater standardrevision til android16-qpr1-release—i platform/manifest-repoet, og den opdaterede default.xml peger nu på den gren for android-latest-release. [5]

Udgivelsen stemmer overens med flere rapporter fra Android-pressen og udviklermiljøet, der bemærker, at QPR1’s kode endelig er offentlig efter flere ugers ventetid. [6]


Hvorfor udgivelsen er vigtig

Gennemsigtighed & sammenligning: Med kilderne tilgængelige kan teams sammenligne frameworks/base, SystemUI, WindowManager og Shell for at se alle adfærdsændringer siden Android 16 GA og QPR1-udrulningen. Dette er essentielt for at håndtere regressioner, sortere app-kompatibilitetsproblemer og validere OEM-integrationer. [7]

Custom ROMs: Store projekter som LineageOS holdt bevidst QPR1-mærkede builds tilbage, fordi ikke alle komponenter var tilgængelige. Dagens udgivelse fjerner blokeringen og bør fremskynde test-builds til populære enheder. [8]

Funktionsverificering: Kilden bekræfter det visuelle overhaul under Material 3 Expressive og den igangværende Desktop Mode-infrastruktur, der dukkede op gennem hele QPR1-betaforløbet—nu fuldt gennemgåelig. [9]


Forsinkelsen—hvad ændrede sig denne cyklus?

Historisk set offentliggjorde Google nye Android-grene til AOSP inden for få dage efter en stabil udgivelse. Med Android 16 QPR1 ankom koden omkring to måneder efter, at Pixels fik opdateringen—en undtagelse, der efterlod vedligeholdere ventende. [10]

Den november 2025 Pixel Feature Drop landede i går med nye AI-assisterede funktioner; QPR1-kildekoden dukkede op umiddelbart bagefter. Den rækkefølge har givet anledning til kvalificerede gæt om, at Google ønskede at undgå at afsløre ufrigivne Feature Drop-ledetråde i offentlige repositorier. Google har ikke officielt givet en teknisk begrundelse, men timingen passer. [11]


Hvad indeholder Android 16 QPR1 egentlig

  • Material 3 Expressive UI: En bredere visuel opdatering, der omfatter Hurtigindstillinger, notifikationer og låseskærmselementer, nu gennemgåelig helt ned til ressource- og flag-niveau. [12]
  • Desktop Mode-fremskridt: Mere robust fundament for multi-vindue/multi-skærm, som OEM’er og ROMs kan undersøge i WindowManager/Shell for at forfine freeform-vinduer og proceslinjeadfærd. [13]
  • Økosystemforbedringer: En række bagvedliggende rettelser, som er typiske for QPR’er, der ikke ændrer offentlige SDK-niveauer, men gør påvirker tjenester, SELinux-politik, Soong-regler og APEX-versioner—nu sporbare commit-for-commit. [14]

Sådan synkroniserer du Android 16 QPR1 fra AOSP

Google anbefaler nu at følge android-latest-release, som er sat til den nyeste udgivelsesgren—i dag er det android16-qpr1-release. [15]

This is the Biggest Change to Android in Years!

  • Responsible AI in Courts: Problems to Solve, Questions to Ask
    November 12, 2025, 9:24 PM EST. Courts face urgent modernization but remain cautious about AI adoption due to accuracy concerns. While many courts already rely on AI in administrative systems, the shift now is toward responsible implementation that preserves justice standards. A generational leadership transition coincides with a pressing need to modernize outdated document management and filing workflows. The data show heightened caution in the legal sector: 70% worry about inaccurate AI outputs, even as 55% anticipate a transformational impact in five years and expect time savings. Barriers include staff shortages (71% foresee shortages in 12 months) and budget constraints, with only 17% having instituted AI-another 17% planning to. The path forward emphasizes AI designed for legal environments, with human oversight, transparency in reasoning, and grounding in verified sources to boost efficiency without sacrificing accuracy.
  • Netflix's IP-Driven In-Person Playground Expands Its Footprint
    November 12, 2025, 9:20 PM EST. Netflix is expanding beyond streaming with Netflix House, a 100,000-square-foot, pay-to-play in-person experience in King of Prussia, PA. The venue stacks restaurant, bars, a store, theater, minigolf, VR rooms, photo ops, an escape room, and a carnival, all saturated with references to IP from shows like Emily in Paris, Wednesday, The Crown, Bridgerton and more. By making content a physical, shareable event, Netflix aims to keep top titles fresh and drive revenue as linear viewership falls. A Dallas location is planned for December and a Las Vegas site for 2027, signaling a broader push into theme parks, live events, and branded experiences as part of its strategy to outsize rivals like Disney and NBCUniversal.
  • Chevron selects West Texas for its first AI data-center power project
    November 12, 2025, 9:18 PM EST. Chevron has chosen West Texas in the Permian Basin for its first AI data-center power project, a new business line aimed at monetizing the AI boom with natural gas-fired generation. The company is in exclusive talks with the data center's unnamed end user and expects a final investment decision early next year, with operations slated for 2027. Initial capacity could reach 2,500 MW by year three and possibly expand to 5,000 MW, planned to run largely off-grid to avoid competing with local electricity supply. The effort reinforces Chevron's need to secure demand for its about 3 bcf/day gas output and follows a partnership with Engine No. 1 that led to orders for seven GE Vernova turbines. Chevron projects 14% annual free cash flow growth to $30B by 2030 with Brent at $70.
  • Will Nvidia Announce a Stock Split on Nov. 19? Not Likely, but AI Growth Persists
    November 12, 2025, 9:16 PM EST. Nvidia's stock split is unlikely on Nov. 19, despite chatter around price levels. The company has split six times in its history, most recently in 2021 and 2024, but those moves came after quarterly results and when the share price was higher than today's level. Being a member of the Dow Jones Industrial Average, Nvidia's price must align with peers in a price-weighted index, which makes a drastic split less attractive. With a current around $194 and a track record of growth, the focus should remain on AI leadership, GPUs, and big-order momentum. Nvidia has about $300 billion in orders for the next five quarters and about $165 billion in revenue last year, underscoring upside beyond split speculation.
  • Cardinal Parolin: Protect the Dignity of Children in the Age of AI
    November 12, 2025, 9:12 PM EST. Cardinal Pietro Parolin warns at an international Rome conference that humanity risks extinction if AI and artificial life forms fail to respect human dignity. He calls for interdisciplinary and multicultural cooperation to steer technology toward true human progress. The message to participants of 'The Dignity of Children and Adolescents in the Age of Artificial Intelligence' stresses protecting the dignity of children as a central challenge for today and tomorrow. While acknowledging opportunities of science, Parolin cautions about existential and moral questions and urges discernment that informs politics, legislation, education, and social support services. He echoes Pope Francis' appeal to limit and direct technology toward a healthier, more human, and social form of progress through inclusive collaboration.
