From 1.0 to 2.0, the Initial journey
Like all successful products, Android evolved with time. It moved from Strength to Strength and worked over its weaknesses to achieve the heights that it is enjoying today. The interesting part about all the Android versions’ code names is that they are based on the names of desserts. Starting from the first popular version, 1.5 or Cupcake, Android got the basic functionalities for a phone, like recording and watching videos, Bluetooth, keyboards with text prediction and other main functions. The next version was the Donut or 1.6. Donut brought improvement in the Camera department, with synced gallery features and increased speed while performing Camera related functions. Updated search experience also allowed you to search almost everything on your phone and the internet. The 2.1, or Éclair, was the major version which improved almost everything from Bluetooth file transfers to digital zoom, from improved keyboards to new browser UI. Till now, Android had become fairly popular and extremely user friendly.
2.2 Or Froyo, a Major Improvement
Froyo brought major changes in the way the Android operating system worked. Almost everything was revamped in this update and Android became a powerful and user friendly OS. Froyo increased general speed of the Android devices by revamping the UI response time and the hardware interaction. USB tethering, Adobe Flash support and installing applications on removable media were the major upgrades over the Éclair. Currently, this is the most popular Android version that can be found on most phones.
