Google's new official tool is to install AOSP ROMs

Who would tell us that one of the first things Google will do in 2020 will be to build a tool that allows us to install Android ROMs. That seems to be the case, and the company has just introduced the Android Flash Tool, a tool that will allow anyone to install the latest version of Android in minutes.

Besides being a tool specifically developed for developers, Flash Tools for Android It is a powerful tool and can hopefully anticipate what the future holds. We explain how it works, what it is and why it will matter.

Android Flash Tool, a mobiles light tool in the latest version of Android

When we talk about ROMs we often refer to Andorid versions made by the public, but that is not the only reasonable explanation. As specified, we can refer to any Android image as a ROM, and those made by Google are no different.

And even though it looks like the big G is creating a genre every month, the fact is that new Android versions are emerging every day, and you are more likely to test them if you know where they are and have the right information.

Google simplified the steps, created the Android Flash Tool, a tool that works directly in the browser and installs the latest version of AOSP on your mobile phone. It requires that we have ADB and drivers (in the case of Windows, Linux and not Mac OS). It also requires us to activate Developer Mode, activate the ADB connection on our mobile phone and explore the OEM unlock option.

Once activated, the tool confirms that our phone is ready to test the latest version of Android it will be light rightly Right now it is work done for developers, But you have a bright future.

At the moment the app seems to work only with Pixel devices, but as we learn from the app itself it looks like it will be approved for use with many smartphones approved by Google itself.

And the fact that Google insists on it Pixel and other mobiles

developers It leaves us with an important clue of what we can see in Google I / O that will be held next May, and that is that during the last two years G has opened an Android 10 and 9 testing period on mobile phones. They were from Google, but from their Android colleagues.

With all the developments of Project Treble and Project Mainline, all this change looks to be that in the coming months we will finally see some level devices added to this special program.
