AI (Artificial Intelligence) -We Are Closer To Real Brain Than You Know..!

DIGITAL ASSISTANTS

Hello Folks , I guess all of you know What exactly AI (Artificial Intelligence) is .

But If you don't know that much then, you can know more about it in an article by my colleague Mr. Jyotiraditya Dey

• Artificial Intelligence (AI)

• Apple's SIRI

• 2016 Technology Resolutions 

Artificial intelligence is one of the hottest subjects these days, and recent advances in technology make AI even closer to reality than most of us can imagine.

Those in the defense industry are not the only ones engaging in an arms race to create advanced AI. Technology giants like Facebook, Google, Microsoft ,Apple and IBM are all engaging in various AI-initiatives, as well as competing on developing digital personal assistants like

•  Facebook’s M

• Microsoft's Cortana

• Apple's SIRI

•  Google's OK Google

Mark Zuckerberg even wants to create his own version of Jarvis from Iron Man to run his home.
Robots are no longer limited to traditional blue-collar jobs, fully automated assembly lines and high-frequency trading algorithms. White-collar jobs are ripe for automation, and robots are replacing bank tellers, mortgage brokers and loan officers in the financial industry. These examples follow strict repetitive rule-based routines, and a machine easily can perform them without any human interaction.

The road to true artificial intelligence is not paved with a single discipline.

The road to true artificial intelligence is not paved with a single discipline, but rather a collection of specialized subject matters, techniques and theories that together interact to create some form of intelligence.
I have limited this post to include only a selection of the technologies and techniques applied in AI research and development. For further insight, Check logic programming.

Tutorial: How to Switch to Android from Windows 10 Mobile

Windows Phone might not be as popular as Android and iOS but it still manages to hold a good number of total smartphone market share but there are some restrictions that might not suit people forcing them to switch to Android. The biggest problem one can face during the process is the transfer their precious data like Media files, Photos, Contacts etc. We decide to come with a comprehensive tutorial to help our readers. So without further ado, let's get started.

To transfer the contacts, follow the following steps:

Sign in to your Microsoft account on your PC, then press the dropdown next to Outlook, and select People.

Now, select Manage and choose Export for Outlook.com and other services.

Now the "*.csv" will download on your computer.
Now you have to transfer your Hotmail contacts to your Google Account. To do that:

Sign-in to your Gmail account on a PC
In the main Gmail window, press the drop-down arrow next to "Gmail" and choose "Contacts".

In Contacts page, press "More" menu and select "Import".

Now press the "Choose File" button.

Navigate to the location where you saved the Contacts file (*.csv) and open it.
Finally, press the "Import" button and wait until the import process is completed.
Now in your phone

Go to Settings> Accounts.
Under Manage Accounts (or Add Account), select the Google account you used to import contacts.
Finally press Sync Contacts. You 're done.
So this is it. You can transfer contacts easily by this method. Moving on, to transfer media files like photos, songs and videos follow method under two different conditions. The first condition is, when we have a Micro SD Card option on both the Windows Phone and the Android device. Second is, when we don't have the Micro SD Card option on Windows Phone as well as the Android device.

Let's start by explaining the first situation. If both the devices support Micro SD Card, then just open file explorer on Windows Phone and move all the files to Micro SD Card. Now take out the Micro SD Card and insert it into your Android device to copy data from the Micro SD Card. This will transfer all the data from Windows Phone to Android.

Next is the situation when you don't have Micro SD Card option. In this case you have to use your Data cable to transfer data using your PC. You can also use Bluetooth/NFC to transfer data but it will take time if the data is big.

Do note that you can use the second method of transferring media files in the first situation as well.

Next up is transferring SMS to your Android device. Unfortunately, Windows Phone doesn't support the transfer of SMS to other devices so you can't transfer. However, you can sync messages if you are switching from Windows Phone to another Windows Phone.

Wrap Up

So that was a quick tutorial on how to make a switch to Android from Windows Phone. We know that Windows Phone is not much popular but when it comes to Windows 10 then, it will be worth to see what Microsoft has under their sleeves. For now, you can use this tutorial to switch to Android if you are not happy with Windows Phone experience. Do let us know if you need any help on the topic.

ISRO’s sixth navigation satellite IRNSS-1F launched today from the Satish Dhawan Space Centre (SDSC) at Sriharikota in Andhra Pradesh.

Navigation satellite IRNSS-1F 

The Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) is all set to launch its sixth navigation satellite IRNSS-1F on Thursday at 4 pm.

The satellite will be launched into orbit from the Satish Dhawan Space Centre (SDSC) at Sriharikota in Andhra Pradesh.
This system aims at developing an independent regional navigation satellite system for India just like America’s reliable Global Positioning System (GPS).
The 54-hour countdown for the satellite began on Tuesday after the project was cleared by Mission Readiness Review Committee and Launch Authorisation Board.
The Indian Regional Navigation Satellite System-1F (IRNSS-1F) is the sixth navigation satellite in the IRNSS system. The system comprises of total seven satellites.
The satellite will be launched by PSLV C32 which will go on its 34th mission on Thursday.
The first five satellites of the series namely IRNSS-1A, 1B, 1C, 1D and 1E were launched in July 2013, April 2014, October 2014, March 2015 and January 2016 respectively.
The seventh and last satellite in this series is expected to be launched in the second half of the year and will help in providing accurate positional information to the Indian users.
Along with the navigation payload and ranging payload, the satellite also carries a “highly accurate Rubidium atomic clock” with it. The payload will transmit navigation service signals to the users.
The 44.4 metre tall IRNSS-1F has a liftoff mass of 1,425 kg and would be launched in sub-Geosynchronous Transfer Orbit (sub GTO). It has a 12 year mission life.

Facebook AI maps - A way of better global positioning of world

Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg on Tuesday announced that two of the company's research wings have analysed 15.6 billion satellite images to create enhanced AI maps for precise location mapping.

In a Facebook post, Zuckerberg said that the social networking website's solar-powered aircraft developing unit and AI research team have completed building advanced AI maps to "create accurate population maps across 21.6 million square kilometres of Earth".

He pointed out that a large number of people reside in remote communities and accurate data on their whereabouts is not always feasible.

According to Zuckerberg, the new maps will significantly enhance location mapping, which will help the company in "beaming down internet connectivity".

"We can't beam internet connectivity to people if we don't know where communities are," he said.

Citing numerous scopes of the new maps, Zuckerberg said," These maps will be shared openly with the community, so other organisations can use them too. This should help with planning energy, health and transport infrastructure, as well as assisting people who need help in disasters."

He has also shared a video demonstration of how the new AI maps compare with the current state-of-the-art population maps.

NowYou Can Upgrade From A 32 Bit PC To 64 Bit to Windows 10- (Solved)

It has been a biggest con of Microsoft Windows that one cannot upgrade from a 32 bit PC to 64 bit PC.
Although a trick has been found to upgrade your current PC to 64 bit Windows 10.

And If your PC has a 32-bit version of Windows 10, then you're missing out on some productivity advantages. Use this guide to switch to the 64-bit version.

Microsoft offers Windows 10 as a free upgrade for computers running a genuine copy of Windows 7 or Windows 8.1. Also, similar to previous releases, the operating system is available on different editions and two versions: 32-bit and 64-bit.

In this Windows 10 guide, we'll walk you through the steps to verify whether your computer in fact includes support for a 64-bit version and we'll guide you through the upgrade process to Windows 10 (x64).

"Make sure Windows 10 64-bit is compatible with your PC"A 64-bit version of Windows can only be installed on computers with capable hardware. As such, the first thing you need to do is to determine whether your computer has a 64-bit processor.

 

"Make sure there 64-bit versions of device drivers"

Also, you also want to ensure that other components in your system, such as video and sound cards are 64-bit compatible, as 32-bit versions of drivers won't work.If your computer is only a few years old, it's more than likely that there are 64-bit drivers available. However, older components may not even be supported anymore. Before switching from a 32- to a 64-bit version of Windows, check your manufacturer's website to see if there are 64-bit drivers available.

 

Make a full backup of your PC

You will be doing making significant changes on your computer, as such it's a good idea to make a full backup of your system before upgrading.
You can use our previous guide to make a full backup of Windows 10, Windows 8.1, and even Windows 7.
Remember that you will also need to backup your personal files to an external drive or OneDrive, as they will be deleted during the installation process.

Create Windows 10 installation media

• Connect a USB drive with at least 4GB of available space.

• Visit Microsoft's Windows 10 download page.

• Click the Download tool now button and save the Media Creation Tool on your desktop.

•  Double-click the MediaCrationTool.exe file.

• Read the license terms and click Accept.

• Select the Create installation media for another PC option.

• Click Next.

• Uncheck the Use the recommended options for this PC option.

• Make sure to select your language, edition, and, more importantly, the architecture, which in this case is 64-bit (x64).

• Click Next.

• Select the USB flash drive option.

• Click Next.

• Select the removable drive from the list.

• Click Next.

• Once the installation media is created, close the Media Creation Tool.

Install a 64-bit version of Windows 10

• Restart your PC with the installation media connected and begin the installation of Windows 10.

• On the Windows Setup, click Next.

• Click Install now.

• As you previously have an activated version of Windows 10, you can skip the option if you're prompted to enter a product key.

• Accept the licensing agreement and click Next.

• Click the Custom: Install Windows only (advanced) option.

• Select and delete system partitions -- usually: Drive 0 Partition 1 and Drive 0 Partition 2.

• Click Next and follow the on-screen directions to complete the installation.

After the installation, make sure to go to Settings > Windows Update to download the latest updates and drivers. If some of the drivers are not available through Windows Update, make sure to check your computer's manufacturer website download and install the 64-bit version of the drivers needed.
Now, it's also the time to install any previous app and restore your personal files from backup.

Windows 10 64-bit benefits

Between a 32-bit and a 64-bit version of Windows, there are no differences in features. However, there are productivity benefits. For example, the 64-bit version addresses the 3.5GB of RAM limitation found in the 32-bit version of the operating system. This advantage means that on computers with at least 4GB of RAM, you'll be able to run more applications simultaneously. Other applications like Google Chrome will be able to handle more opened tabs, and you will be able to run more memory-intensive applications, such as AutoCAD, Photoshop, and video editing programs.
It's worth pointing out that while we're focusing on Windows 10, Microsoft doesn't support a direct path between architectures for previous versions of the operating system eith

Review of Moto X Force

It is typical Motorola's design but it's
durable and Shatterproof.  The phone may appear little bit bulky but doesn't feel heavy also the curved design and ballistic nylon finish makes this phone very good grip to hold in hand.  Also back protect this phone from scratches, fingerprint and dust.  The Overall design not look very very premium but the built quality makes this phone sturdy, solid and rock-hard.

This handset has 5.4 inch Quad High Definition display with three layered shatterproof glasses. Which is a super AMOLED Display with ~540 Pixel density.  I can renders four time better picture quality compare to 1080p screen.  This is a great display both in terms of Color reproduction and viewing angles.  The pictures are very very sharp and crystal clear and more vibrant, thanks to AMOLED panel.

Moto X Force powered by Snapdragon 810 chipset which is a Octa Core Processor and which is actually divided into two parts.  The first Quad Core is clocked at 1.5 GHz Cortex A53 and another powerful Quad Core Clocked at 2 GHz Cortex A57 coupled with 3 Gigabytes RAM and Adreno 430 Graphical Processing Unit.  The performance are flawless and lag-free and smooth experience and force as well.  It can force gaming level up to it's boundary, you can play almost all kind of games without stutter free.

This phone comes with 21 Mega Pixel Primary camera with Dual tone LED flash and 5 Mega Pixel front facing camera with single LED flash.  Rear camera impressed us with it's quality in terms of picture detailing, colors and brightness level.  Especially it performs excellent in outdoor lighting condition.  The front facing camera not excellent compare to other flagships phone available in this price range.  The Camera User Interface offers limited functions, however it can produce good amount of pictures.

This phone packed with 3760 mAh battery which is a non-removable battery.  This isn't gonna win any award for battery life, but 3660 mAh battery is more than enough for you get through full day.  Power users should be able to get 9 to 11 hours of battery life on a single charge. If you are sort of moderate users it can give almost two days battery backup.  It also support quick charging so, you can charge almost 60% battery in 60 to 90 minutes. 

Another Boom in OS Field : Android on Linux

 Android on Linux

Shashlik brings Android apps to Linux, and you can try it today.

Ubuntu Phone could one day run Android apps thanks to this project.

At its core, Android is just Linux. But Android provides a run-time and various other libraries that applications depend on, so you can’t just install Android apps on Linux and expect them to work. Open-source project Shashlik is attempting to bridge the gap, and now offers a preview release that can run many Android applications on Linux today. 

 

Shashlik runs Android on Linux

Essentially, Shashlik runs Android in the background on your Linux system. (Shashlik developers are working on stripping down Android as much as possible.) OpenGL and graphics code are rendered directly on your Linux system for speed, but Shashlik provides an Android activity manager, daemons, and intents so Android apps will work properly.
But Shashlik isn’t just an emulator—it aims to provide a more native experience. When you install an Android app, Shashlik will extract its icon and create a menu entry so you can launch that Android app just like you’d launch any other Linux desktop app. All the Android emulation happens behind the scenes.
Shashlik has been under development for a while, but it just recently offered a preview release. Currently, you can download version 0.9.3. Packages are available for both Ubuntu and Arch Linux. They’ve only been tested on KDE’s Plasma 5 desktop so far, so you may want to use Kubuntu—the Ubuntu “spin” that includes KDE’s Plasma desktop—to try Shashlik for yourself.
After you install the Shashlik packages on Linux, you’ll need an Android app in APK file form. Shashlik provides a link to a Flappy Bird APK known to work. Find the APK file on your system, select the Open With option, and tell it to open the file with the following command: /opt/shashlik/bin/shashlik-install
Shashlik will then install the app and you’ll be able to launch it from your desktop’s applications menu. Other APKs may or may not work—if an APK has native code, it must support x86 processors and not just ARM processors, or it won’t work. 

Flappy Bird on Linux

Of course, there are other projects dedicated to Android app compatibility. Google is working on its own ARC Android runtime in Chrome. On Windows and Mac OS X, BlueStacks provides an Android experience that works pretty well. But Shashlik is open-source, unlike these other projects. It could potentially be integrated into Linux distributions. It works natively on Linux and doesn’t require Chrome.
Ubuntu could even use this as the basis of a project to allow Android apps to run on Ubuntu phones. Canonical has no plans for that yet, but it could give Ubuntu phones a leg up and help their almost nonexistent app ecosystem. 

GOOGLE ROBOTS : YOU CERTAINLY NEED TO KNOW ABOUT THEM

GOOGLE SMART ROBOT ANSWER GOOGLE'S INTERVIEW QUESTION

 

 Google's artificially intelligent neural network of computers is now so clever that it can solve puzzles meant for computing professionals who apply for jobs with the internet giant.

According to researchers from Oxford University, the Canadian Institute for Advanced Research and Google, the deep mind neural network can be taught to solve communication-based co-ordination tasks. The network previous succeeded in teaching itself  to play 31 retro arcade video games, although it was unable to master PAC-Man.

The robot first needs to develop a communications protocol in order to communicate with other agents in the network, and the researchers say that for the first time, deep reinforcement learning has enabled the neural network to successfully learn communications protocols.

The puzzle set for the neural network is one that is posed to prospective Google employees when they attend an interview with the company.

Can you answer this Google interview question?

Q: An executioner lines up 100 prisoners single file and puts a red or a blue hat on each prisoner's head. Every prisoner can see the hats of the people in front of him in the line – but not his own hat, nor those of anyone behind him. The executioner starts at the end (back) and asks the last prisoner the colour of his hat. He must answer "red" or "blue."
If he answers correctly, he is allowed to live. If he gives the wrong answer, he is killed instantly and silently. (While everyone hears the answer, no one knows whether an answer was right.) On the night before the line-up, the prisoners confer on a strategy to help them. What should they do?
 

In order to solve this problem, the Deep Mind neural network modeled each of the 100 prisoners as a separate computer in the network and then considered what colored hats each agent would be able to see if they were lined up in a row. Each artificially intelligent agent had to consider what to tell the others, and then collectively they could work out the answer.

 

 Answer, by Terence Gaffney, mathematics professor at Northeastern University:
"You have a 100% chance of saving all but the last prisoner, and a 50% chance of saving that one. Here's the strategy the prisoners have agreed on. The last prisoner counts the number of blue hats worn; if the number is even, the last prisoner yells "blue", if odd, yells "red". If the the 99th prisoner hears "blue", but counts an odd number of blue hats, then his hat must be blue so that the total number of blue hats is even. If he counts an even number of blue hats, then his hat must be red. If the last prisoner yells red, then #99 knows that there are an odd number of blue hats.
So #99 counts the number of blue hats he can see. Again, if they are even, his hat is blue, if odd, his hat is red. The 99th prisoner then yells out the color of his hat and is spared. The next prisoner now knows whether the remaining number of blue hats, including his own, is odd or even, by taking into account whether #99 had a blue hat or not. Then by counting the number of blue hats he sees, he knows the color of his hat. So he yells out the color of his hat and is spared. This saves all but the last prisoner, and there is a 50% chance that his hat is the color he shouted out." - Answer first appeared In the New York Times.

The researchers say that the network of computers was able to work out the answer to the problem by themselves and this is a great step towards getting robots to work together successfully to complete tasks.

  "They've come up with protocols that are different from how humans solve these problems. We don't yet fully understand what the solutions are, but we know that they work," Oxford University researcher Jakob Forester told  new scientist  magazine.
The research, entitled   Learning to communicate to solve riddles with deep distributed  Recurrent Q network  is an open-access paper published in the Cornell University Library repository.

New smart glass will allow typing via virtual keyboard.

New smart glass will allow typing via virtual keyboard.

Scientists have developed smart glasses with stereo-vision that allow users to text a message by offering a virtual keyboard.

Scientists have developed smart glasses with stereo-vision that allow users to text a message or type in key words for internet surfing by offering a virtual keyboard for text and even one for a piano.

K-Glass is an even stronger model of smart glasses reinforced with augmented reality (AR) that were first developed by the Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology (KAIST) in 2014, with the second version released in 2015.

The latest version, which KAIST researchers are calling K-Glass 3, allows users to text a message or type in key words for internet surfing by offering a virtual keyboard for text and even one for a piano.

Currently, most wearable head-mounted displays (HMDs) suffer from a lack of rich user interfaces, short battery lives, and heavy weight, researchers said. Some HMDs, such as Google Glass, use a touch panel and voice commands as an interface, but they are considered merely an extension of smartphones and are not optimised for wearable smart glasses.

Recently, gaze recognition was proposed for HMDs including K-Glass 2, but gaze is insufficient to realise a natural user interface (UI) and experience (UX), such as user’s gesture recognition, due to its limited interactivity and lengthy gaze-calibration time, which can be up to several minutes.

As a solution, Professor Hoi-Jun Yoo and his team from the Electrical Engineering Department developed K-Glass 3 with a low-power natural UI and UX processor to enable convenient typing and screen pointing on HMDs with just bare hands. This processor is composed of a pre-processing core to implement stereo vision, seven deep-learning cores to accelerate real-time scene recognition within 33 milliseconds, and one rendering engine for the display.

The stereo-vision camera, located on the front of K-Glass 3, works in a manner similar to three dimension (3D) sensing in human vision. The camera’s two lenses, displayed horizontally from one another just like depth perception produced by left and right eyes, take pictures of the same objects or scenes and combine these two different images to extract spatial depth information, which is necessary to reconstruct 3D environments.

The camera’s vision algorithm has an energy efficiency of 20 milliwatts on average, allowing it to operate in the Glass more than 24 hours without interruption. The research team adopted deep-learning-multi core technology dedicated for mobile devices to recognise user’s gestures based on the depth information.

This technology has greatly improved the Glass’s recognition accuracy with images and speech, while shortening the time needed to process and analyse data. In addition, the Glass’s multi-core processor is advanced enough to become idle when it detects no motion from users.

Instead, it executes complex deep-learning algorithms with a minimal power to achieve high performance. “We have succeeded in fabricating a low-power multi-core processor that consumes only 126.1 milliwatts of power with a high efficiency rate,” Yoo said.

REMIX OS - Bugged : ALL KNOWN BUGS by DAVID VISHNOI

I would like to draw readers attention towards the bugs in Remix-os

read my previous articles:

•  REMIX OS reviewed by ConvergeQuick TEAM : Pros and Cons 

•  How to Install NEW REMIX-OS on a Hard Disk Drive or DUAL BOOT with WINDOWS ? 

 

Now here's the list of known bugs:

• Netflix issue - Netflix not working ,not loading any movies.

• Sound - interference in sound output and input

• Sync issue - Mail Client not Syncing with Gmail or ActiveSync Servers

• Reboot issue - OS Randomly restarts anytime.

• Locking - Display doesn't turn on when pressing power button.

• Wifi -Wifi disconnects by itself after a couple of minutes

•  Headphone issues - when connected at the same time while charging I get some statics sounds (it stop when I unplug the charger, strange) | when playing music and locking my device I hear lags in the music which makes it impossible for listening with a lock screen.

•  Facebook Messenger - when getting a message the head widget wont popup on screen like it suppose to be, I believe it apply to every popup widget.

•  Multiple windows - when working with couple of windows (in phone mode) the "current app" settings wont work if you just touch the floating window. for the setting wont be greyed out I needed to minimize the app and open it again.

• Notification Center - the notification and settings center looks amazing but every notification is categorized under the app name and under it the notify will show, why? It add another interaction to see what is the notification for example the spotify app usually have a controller at the notification center but now I see a "Spotify" notification and just when I press it it will extend and show me the controller (unneeded action in my opinion).

• Downloading - I tried to download something locally and I failed every time! I tried using different browsers and apps nothing helped.

• Lock screen (request) - Can you make the notification visible on the lock screen itself (like a quick view as it exist on AOSP lock screen).

• Languages - languages... languages... languages... no matter what Keyboard app I install it just don't let me change to my desired language, please fix!

• Email app - cant set an exchange account (workaround by installing gmail app).

• File Manager app - wont see mounted DOK (workaround by installing ES File Explorer app).

• Camera app - it just me or there is no settings to set anything?

• Power Manager app - very basic, where are all the details???

• Default Launcher - this is more a request, I would love more customize options (see Nova Launcher for example...)

'Android -N 7.0' Features and everything you want to know about it...

                                          #Only on convergequick......

The Android operating system name is always a point of excited discussion ahead of its reveal. The next name might be talked about even before it gets decided, as you could be the one choosing.
Google SVP Sundar Pichai, speaking at Delhi University, suggested that future Android OS naming might involve the public. He was asked why the sweet names have never used an Indian sweet. He said that he would ask his mother for suggestions before opening an online poll to the public.
So this sounds more like a suggestion than a dead certain plan. But if it does go ahead we'll be excited to see how much say the public actually gets. If it goes to a vote what could some options be?
Android Nutella is a favourite of ours. Android Nut Brittle would make us chuckle. Android Nerds, remember those sour treats? Android Nutrageous might be a little on the long side. Android Nougat could be a good one but there will always be that debate on how to pronounce it.
So not a lot of options out there for N, which could make it ideal for a vote. Here's hoping Google follows through on Sundar Pichai's comments and we can start voting on the next Android operating system name soon.

10 features that will probably arrive along with Android N

1. Multi-window

This feature popped up as a highly-experimental and top-secret part of Android Marshmallow, which allowed the willing tech-savvy Android users to split the screen and use two apps simultaneously. As it was present in the Developer Previews of the M release, many speculated that Google is indeed going to add a full-blown multi-window feature to the official version of the OS. Sadly, as you know, this was not the case. We suppose that this feature might be coming along with Android N.

2. Dark UI theme

A dark UI theme was present in the first Dev Previews of Marshmallow, but sadly, the easy-on-the-eyes feature got retired and did not make the cut in the official Marshmallow release. With the Nexus 6P boasting an AMOLED display, it would have made a lot of sense for Android 6.0 to score a battery-friendly system-wide dark theme. We suppose that Google has its own reasons for scrapping this feature, but we are hopeful that it will make a full-blown comeback in 2016.

3. Full-blown theme engine

The dark theme made us think... Why stop with dark and light themes, why not add a full-blown theme engine and allow users to download and apply various themes to their stock Android devices? We know that Android has been perfectly capable of doing this for years and many manufacturers are benefiting from this, yet the vanilla version of the OS doesn't allow for such customization, which is a shame. We are hopeful that this feature will arrive next year.

4. More feature-rich power menu

This might be a small feature, but nonetheless, the devil is in the details. Custom ROMs and manufacturer's skins have had a reboot option for a long, long time now, as well as handy shortcuts for soft reboot, airplane mode, or even an easy way to jump straight into your recovery. While we doubt that Google will include these in particular, we are keeping our fingers crossed for a richer and more feature-packed power menu. What about you?

5. On-screen button customization

Stock Android has put its faith into on-screen navigation buttons for a long time now, but unlike other OEM's added solutions, its doesn't allow you to have a say in their layout or type. LG's Android-based UI, for example, allows you to choose what both the layout and type of on-screen navigation buttons. Why wouldn't Google allow such a user-friendly customization?

6. Notification LED control

You can manage the LED light on your Android device to some extent with the aid of some third-party apps like Light Flow or Light Manager, but a baked-in option for adjusting these will be so much better.
