It looks like Android O is codenamed Oatmeal Cookie


We don’t yet know what Android O’s launch name will be, but it looks very likely that its internal codename is Oatmeal Cookie.
Digging around in Android 8’s source code, Myce found various references to ‘oc-dev’. Now, that doesn’t necessarily mean Oatmeal Cookie, but given Google’s sweet tooth it’s a likely option.

Taken on its own, that could have just been Google trolling eagle-eyed viewers, but with references in the source code now emerging too it seems pretty convincing.

Such a big jump in resolution should solve that, but it will also apparently help with nausea. An industry official said: “When using a VR device, the number of ppi should be much larger than it is now to feel natural without feeling di...
