Google released the first preview of the Android 7.1.1 Nougat to the line Nexus in the last month, but not all the features present in the line Pixel have been released by the company. Now a representative of the line of development of software of Google commented that the feature of gestures by the biometric reader may not be taken to the old devices of the company.
according To Ian Lake, Google has not released the use of gestures on the biometric reader of the last devices of the line Nexus by a mismatch in the hardware. However, users of the forum Reddit discovered that the biometric reader of the Nexus 6P is exactly the same found in the smartphones of the line Pixel. So what would be the mismatch?
The Nexus 6P actually has full capacity to receive all of the features present in the Pixel XL. But for this it would be necessary to update the firmware on the biometric reader and also the necessary files to enable the feature via a kernel device. It would be a lengthy process, and apparently Google has no plans to "waste time" with their old product.
in This way, don’t wait for the Nexus 5 and 6P to receive the feature of gestures on the biometric reader when they receive the final version of Android 7.1 in December. Anyway, there are already alternative methods to do this, that does not demand root access, or any other modification with the app Fringerprint Quick Action.
The 'night mode', another feature that was exclusive of the line Pixel, can also be implemented in line Nexus with a small mod that needs to be passed via recovery alternative, such as TWRP. In this way, Google until you can no longer strive to achieve such changes, but nothing is incumbent that users themselves can have these new features.
