Android Q Beta 2 Now Supported In Magisk Thanks To New Magisk 19.1 Update

You probably already know about Magisk if you know even a bit about flashing zip’s and rooting android devices. Now Android Q Beta 2 is supported by this app thanks to the last version of it, Magisk 19.1. In addition to that, the new Magisk update has also come with new releases for the Magisk Manager.

Android Q Beta 2 Now Supported In Magisk Thanks To New Magisk 19.1 Update

Magisk 19.1 update

Magisk 19.1 now supports recovery and Android Q Beta 2. For better compatibility, it now has a new spin overlay setup process, and all you need to do to boot to recovery in recovery mode is to allow long pressing volume up. Now Magisk uses self-created device nodes for mirrors and a proper system_root mirror. However, it does not allow adding new files/folders in the partition root folder (e.g.,/system or /vendor).

Magisk Manager v7.1.2 changelog

The Magisk Manager v7.1.2 has been enhanced with support for patching Samsung AP firmware, and now the downloading module mechanism is much better.

Magisk 19.1 supports Pixel 2 and Pixel 2 XL with Android Q Beta 2 rooting

Rooting Pixel devices running on Android Q Beta 2 are now supported thanks to the latest Magisk 19.1 update, and that means that if you are a Google Pixel 2 or 2 XL user, you will have the ability to root your devices running Android Q Beta 2.

Unfortunately, it keeps being a significant challenge to root the Pixel 3 and 3XL running on Android Q Beta 2. An additional feature you might enjoy is the one that allows you to long press the volume up button to boot into recovery mode. Now, thanks to the new Magisk 19.1 update, you will not have the ability to add new folders and files in the root folder because this may cause crashes to the system itself.

Android Q Beta 2 Revealed The New Bubbles Multitasking Feature

Google releases the second Android Q Beta. With the first version, we learned that support for foldable smartphones would be brought by Android Q, as well as better privacy and permissions controls, along with some other features. However, our devices will have to wait a while until they benefit from the Android Q Beta 2, but promises written by Google in their release blog post saying that “bug fixes, optimizations, and API updates” will be introduced, along with a great emulator for foldable and a crazy new multitasking feature.

Android is a multitasking lover, and we have seen that from the floating windows and split screens, along with a hidden desktop mode in the Android Q Beta 1. A new multitasking feature will be introduced by Android Q Beta 2, and its name is Bubbles. Bubbles allow the user to minimize an app into a little circle which will float around on the screen above all your other apps.

Android Q Beta 2 rolled out with the new Bubbles multitasking feature

A small UI will be opened if you tap on a bubble. The only demo showed by Google is of the one for a messaging app. A contact can be found in each bubble, and a small chat UI is showed if you tap on the bubble. If you did not forget Facebook’s “Chat Head” UI for Messenger, Bubbles is not different from that, but it is built into the OS.

Google said that Bubbles could be used in a lot of ways, so it is helpful for everybody. “Bubbles are great for messaging because they let users keep important conversations within easy reach. They also provide a convenient view over ongoing tasks and updates, like phone calls or arrival times. They can provide quick access to portable UI, like notes or translations, and can be visual reminders of tasks too.”
