Powered By Indian Engineers, Lava Announces Android 11 Update For Z2, Z4, Z6 And MyZ Triple Camera Variants

Lava International Ltd, a leading Indian mobile handset company today announced the Android 11 update for its Z2, Z4, Z6, and MyZ triple-camera variants. The update will be first rolled out for Z4, Z6, and MyZ models from 25th July onwards, while Z2 users will receive the update in the subsequent months. Lava Z2, Z4, Z6, and My Z were launched together in January this year with stock Android 10 OS.

The new software update will be released as an OTA to the users who will receive a notification, once it reaches them. The users will have a choice to either download it immediately or do it later by simply going to their phone settings. The Android 11 update will enable Lava users to experience exciting and improved features like screen recording, chat bubbles, dark mode scheduling, and digital well-being. In addition to this, the new android will provide improved user privacy, a better media controller, and an easy conversation & notification manager.

The software for Android R has been developed by Indian engineers and strong Indian R&D has powered Lava to provide consumers with consistent Android upgrades. The brand will continue to provide such updates in future as it is ramping up its investments in R&D.

Here is the complete list of Android 11 updates:

·         Managing Conversation & notifications

There are now three notification categories: Conversations, Alerting, and Silent.

a. The Conversations section, houses all your conversations meaning any app where you are directly communicating with someone else, including text messages and chats within other apps.

b. The Alerting and Silent sections act as they have before in Android 10. You can also easily silence notifications from certain apps, which would push all future notifications to the Silent section.

·         Built in Screen recorder

This gives you an easy access to recording anything being done on the screen and its built right into Android 11 so you don’t need an extra app. Record with sound from your mic, your device or both.

·         Media controls

With Android 11, the media player has been moved to the Quick Settings section for easy access. When you swipe down your notification drawer, the media controller will be pretty small. It will show you the app it’s related to, cover art, basic controls, and on which system the media is playing. If you pull down again on the drawer, the alert expands.

·         User Privacy: One time permission and auto- reset

This will give users more control over their privacy. In android 10, it asks a user permission only when they first install an app. But in Android 11’s case, you can give one-time permissions to apps that need your mic, camera or location. The next time that the app needs access, it must ask for permission again. The permission gets revoked as soon as that app is closed. So the user’s data is always safe.

·         Chat bubbles

Chat while multitasking. With this new feature, you can pin conversations in form chat bubbles so that they always appear on top of other apps and screen so that you can access the chat anytime or anywhere.

·         Tools that predict what a user want

a. Smart reply: The phone devices replies to be sent for a text on the basis of your usage

b. Smart folders: This is for a user to organize their apps in folders like Work, Fitness, Food, Games etc

·         Camera

3P Performance optimizations: The phone’s camera works even better on 3rd party photo sharing apps like Snapchat and Instagram.

·         Notification history

This feature is to restore any swiped notifications that might have been swiped by mistake. You can check those notifications received in the last 24 hours.

·         Dark mode scheduling

After the simplistic Dark mode in Android 10, this time android gives an option to schedule it as per your requirement. Users can schedule the dark theme using one of two different metrics:

a.      Users can schedule a dark theme to turn on or off when the sun sets or rises.

b.      Users can also set up a custom schedule for dark mode activation if you wish.

·         Digital wellbeing

a.      Bedtime mode: Bedtime mode quiets your phone when it’s time to go to sleep. Schedule it to run automatically or while your phone charges as you rest. Your screen switches to Greyscale and your notifications go silent with Do Not Disturb.

b.      Clock: The new bedtime feature in Clock helps you set a healthy sleep schedule. Track screen time at night and fall asleep to calming sounds. Then wake up to your favorite song. Or use the Sunrise Alarm that slowly brightens your screen to start the day.

One of the major objectives of this initiative which is called Code Unnati is to impart digital literacy to women and youth from rural Karnataka. Digital literacy is one of the key 21st century skills required to improve their employability. Owing to disruptions in offline learning, the project learning modules were digitalised to provide timely guidance to participants.

Code Unnati engages with academia, government institutions at the state and district level, incubation centres, civil societies, and other bodies to create a sustainable impact. Through the following initiatives the project will reach over 20,000 youth and 5,000 women in Bangalore Rural, Raichur and Dakshin Kannada districts over the next three years:

Connecting youth with government incubation centres and providing them with opportunities to participate in design thinking workshops, innovation challenges, and boot camps

Women would be supported through community-level mentorship and handholding support to start or scale their micro-enterprises. The project will raise awareness about various vocations, industry and professional linkages, and employee volunteering.

More than 300 women are expected to initiate their own businesses in three years and enhance their income by an anticipated 10 per cent within 18 months of the programme's initiation. Karnataka has been at the forefront of creating digital opportunities while nurturing one of the country's most mature IT and start-up ecosystems. This initiative is further working towards strengthening the enabling ecosystem with a focus on skilling.

It will also provide 15,000 students with 21st century skills training coupled with Entrepreneurship Development Programmes in the target districts. These students will have opportunities to attend design thinking workshops, demos, digital skills championships leading to scholarships and employment opportunities. SAP will lead directly lead the strategic mentorship for all the initiatives.

Sindhu Gangadharan, SVP, and Managing Director, SAP Labs India, said, “Technology has enabled everyone to stay connected, especially during the pandemic. The demand for digital skills will increase and a plethora of entrepreneurial opportunities will emerge. Our mission of making the world run better and improving people's lives well aligns with UNDP's global goals. We are happy to see ourselves in the role of equipping women and youth in Karnataka to make them future-ready, and thus ensuring diversity and inclusion.”

Ms Nadia Rasheed, Deputy Resident Representative, UNDP India, said, "The COVID-19 pandemic has heightened many existing inequalities.

Trane Technologies’ Thermo King Cold Chain Solutions For Covid-19 Vaccines Across Indian Market

* Thermo King’s refrigerated transport and storage solutions help to safely deliver thousands of COVID-19 vaccines throughout India, including to major cities and hard-to-reach rural populations 

* End-to-end solutions meet cold transport and storage needs for all vaccines, including those that require ultra-cold storage temperatures  

* Telematics enable precise tracking and monitoring of vaccine temperature conditions on their journey from pharmaceutical manufacturers to people’s arms 

* Thermo King products are being used by transport companies such as FedEx and UPS for the distribution of the Pfizer vaccines in the U.S. 

Thermo King by Trane Technologies (NYSE: TT), a global climate innovator, is strengthening India’s COVID-19 vaccination drive with its end-to-end refrigerated transportation and storage solutions. Major logistics companies in the country like Coldrush Logistics, Snowman Logistics, Coldman Logistics, Geetee Carriers, Algor Supply Chain Solutions and Reema Transport among others are using Thermo King refrigeration units to move the life-saving vaccines to vaccination sites. 

Brutally hit by a second wave of COVID-19, and with experts forecasting a third wave due to the Delta variant, India faces a high risk of the pandemic continuing its spread throughout the country. Vaccines must remain safe and stable as they make their way to vaccination sites across the country and into people’s arms. Thermo King plays a big role in making this possible. 

“Considering the urgent need for all vaccines, including those used in the country today and those on their way, such as Moderna and Pfizer BioNTec, India cannot afford breaks in the cold chain of a temperature-sensitive vaccine, whether they are being shipped by air, sea, road or rail,” said Kishor Patil, Trane Technologies HVAC & Transport, India & SAARC country leader. “The result could be the loss of an entire load of high-value, life-saving vaccine for the many people in India who remain unvaccinated.” 

Thermo King refrigeration units can maintain the right temperatures, from 25° to – 70° Celsius for an extended period, and can help reduce risk of degradation of the vaccine, keeping it safe and stable every step of the way. 

Preventing vaccine deserts 

“Our cold chain solutions can help prevent vaccine deserts where there is lack of accessibility, throughout India’s large population spread across vast and varied geographies, from densely populated cities to far-flung rural communities,” Kishor added. 

Thermo King is supporting the seamless and safe transportation of Covishield, Covaxin and Sputnik vaccines to cities such as Mumbai, Delhi, Bangalore, Chennai, Hyderabad, Ahmedabad, Kolkata and Chandigarh, as well as to remote areas.  

The company is also ready to support the arrival of new vaccines as they are approved for India, including those with ultra-low temperature requirements like Pfizer BioNTec. Thermo King’s SuperFreezers support an ultra-low set point of -70C and can store up to 60 times more doses compared to traditional reach-in freezers. These solutions can also extend the life of dry ice, or even eliminate the need for it.  

In the U.S Thermo King’s refrigeration units are being used for the transportation and distribution of Pfizer vaccine by transport companies such as FedEx and UPS. “We are optimistic that our experience in distribution of vaccines in the U.S will help us play a critical role in the vaccine’s administration in India,” Kishor said. 

Thermo King works with a global network of nearly 900 dealers and partners, including about 60 in India, to provide end-to-end temperature control solutions for food, medicines, vaccines, and other important cargo. Along with SuperFreezers, its portfolio includes road transport solutions (truck & trailers), air transport solutions, marine transport solutions, containers and portable cubes that can easily be scaled and repositioned to different locations as demand changes.
