Android stuff leaks 👀 By @romashka and @meowfoxd
And... yeah, we're not done yet
Following tradition, here's the full Pixel 2026 (Pixel 11) series wallpapers collection.
Make sure to share them!
(although they lowkey suck 🥀)
After the Android Show announcement, a lot of people thought Google's about to copy Liquid Glass 😭🥀
But well.. that's not what's happening here.
Instead, it seems like Google's heavily expanding blur effects across the UI in Android 17!
From what we've seen, blur has been added to:
- Volume slider and expanded volume panel
- Power menu UI
- Lockscreen shortcuts and notifications
- Home screen context menu
We've attached some screenshots for a visual reference 👀
What do you think about these changes?
Let us know down below!
With big screens comes great expectations... maybe? 💻✨
Ahead of today's Google IO 2026 event, the overall expectations are quite high. So far, all we can do is wait a little longer and see what Google’s got up its sleeve.
But based on previous statements and rumors, Big G might finally give us a first glimpse of its upcoming Desktop OS, the one set to replace ChromeOS (possibly as early as late 2026): AluminiumOS, also known as Android Desktop.
As we've promised a while back, we have some juicy informations for you, and now we're here to deliver: By clicking right here, you can take a look at how the OS is going to look like... and yes, this is all running on a MacBook Pro through UTM... ironic, isn't it?
Now, let’s be honest: Google’s ALOS is no secret. It’s essentially plain Android, but with most of the desktop-experience quirks you’d expect, including:
•Desktop folders
•Virtual desktops
•An optimized Quick Settings & notifications panel
•Touchpad & keyboard gestures and shortcuts
•Certain optimized apps (like the task manager)
•A solid ecosystem between your laptop and mobile devices, including Apple ones, through "Link to iOS"
However... here comes the delusional part:
As of now, that’s pretty much it. The current state of ALOS feels closer to a slightly pimped version of Samsung DeX than to an actual desktop-class OS, with its biggest shortcomings being the absolutely non-existent selection of mouse & keyboard optimized apps (even most of the Google apps you see are just web versions wrapped in a window!), plus the limited hardware it’ll run on (cause let's be honest, Snapdragon X chips aren't nearly as good as Apple's M series)
Still, we’re keeping our fingers crossed for some good news from Google this evening
Do you think ALOS has a bright future ahead? Or is it destined for the infamous "Killed by Google" graveyard sooner rather than later?

✨ And... one more thing! Or two, perhaps...
1️⃣ Both the 11 Pro and the Pro XL, as well as the 11 Pro Fold, won't feature a thermometer (RIP 🥀). Instead, all of them will spot an RGB LED array in the camera bar — somewhat similar to Nothing's Glyph, but smaller.
2️⃣ Despite previous claims, Project Toscana (IR Face Unlock) likely won't debut on the P26 lineup, as it's simply still not ready for release.
P.S: The attached image is AI Generated, but it resembles the actual look of the Pixel 11 Pro's back cover
Do you think Google cooked with this one? Or is it below your expectations?
Let us know down below!
What's up! We have some bad news for you...
The Pixel 10 devices (excluding the 10a) are getting a bootloader update in one of the future Android releases that increments the anti-rollback version for the bootloader.
This means that, after upgrading, you won't be able to downgrade to a lower version of Android. You might need to sideload a full OTA image again to avoid bricking in certain situations.
By the way, we're working on Pixel 11 leaks and a chemical element (13), stay tuned!
This 2026 looks so... dual 👀
As the new year goes by, we think it's now the right time to start giving you a good showcase of a bunch of features Google plans to implement in the next Android 17 update.
While the next major iteration of Google's OS - codenamed CinnamonBun - is still undergoing internal planning, it's safe to assess that the Mountain View tech-giant is working hard to improve Android's accessibility and overall UX.
So, here's two great changes that we could expect:
• Dual Shade: Remember when we first discussed this in May? Well, Google has made significant progress since then, fixing most of the functional and visual bugs it had.
As a side note, we must say they still managed to *fuck it up*. Foldables and tablet users will be forced to use the new dual-shade quick settings panel on their bigger screens, no way out, it's intentional.
• Divided network toggles: After YEARS of user complaints, Google finally listened to their fanbase and managed to implement an optional switch to finally divide the Wi-Fi and Mobile Data toggles. Yes, even we are surprised.
As always, let us know what you think about these upcoming changes down below!
As November draws near...
...so does some spicy news from Google just for you ✨
With October coming to an end, the moment for an all-new Google Pixel Drop is getting closer and closer.
In an exclusive preview, here’s your first look at what’s arriving in this upcoming release, officially set to launch on November 4.
• Theme Packs: Although leaks about this new feature surfaced months ago, it wasn't sure whether it would make it to the public sooner or later
But the November 2025 Pixel Drop holds a huge surprise in that regard: the very first Pixel Theme is on its way, inspired by the upcoming film "Wicked: For Good"— with its first screenings set for the same day as the Drop.
• Pixel Studio Animations: Beginning with this feature drop, you can breathe new life into your photos and GIFs using the Pixel Studio app, generating a small AI video-clip of them.
The AI model behind this remains unclear, though it may very well be powered by Google’s latest Veo 3(.1).
• Pixel VIP Notifications: For the first time since its introduction, the Pixel VIP feature might actually prove somewhat useful (🥀), thanks to the inclusion of prioritized notifications for all your VIP contacts— though currently limited to WhatsApp and Google Messages conversations.
For more details, feel free to check out the official infographics included with this post.
What are your thoughts on these latest updates?
Share your comments down below!
Hey.. it looks like it might drop even sooner than we thought!
Even though our leak about the upcoming , greatest ever, Google Pixel 10a is only 1 month old, here we are again with some fresh updates for you
(perhaps, a little hotter this time)
Below you'll find all the brand-new Pixel 10a wallpapers, which also give us a good peek at the new color options Google is cooking up.
Based on these, we're expecting to see variants in:
• Black
• Blue
• Dark Blue
• Red
• Green
Moreover, we expect the phone to be released much earlier this time, perhaps by the year's end.
Comment down below your favorite color and stay tuned.. we've got plenty more new things to show you soon 👀
Well, yeah... we know we still owe you something.
Thus, here you can download the wallpapers for the upcoming (or maybe not) Pixel 10 Pro Fold.
While the static wallpapers aren't much different from the ones we showed all of you earlier, there's a great addition by Google: the corresponding live-wallpaper versions!
Are you excited for the new additions upcoming to the Pixel lineup? Let us know down below!
Remember when we talked about Pixel Sense in one of our previous leaks?
Well. Screw it. Google has changed its mind since then.
The brand-new Pixel 10 series exclusive AI feature is now getting renamed: Welcome, Magic Cue!
Magic Cue is the spiritual successor of the now-deprecated "Pixel Sense" assistant. While most of its features were already leaked beforehand, here you have a sneak peak at how the (hopefully) final setup page looks like.
What's your perception of Magic Cue? Is it useful or just spyware? Let us know down below!
AOSP might be no more soon 🥀
As many of you know, Android 16 was just pushed to AOSP yesterday and many developers immediately noticed that Pixel device trees became private, as well as some hardware-related repositories, like graphics.
But, well, there's one more thing: there's a VERY high chance that AOSP may cease to exist soon🥀🥀
Update: AOSP IS NOT GOING AWAY!
An early DVT1.0 Pixel 10 Pro has been leaked on coolapk, a chinese social platform
While this confirms most of our leaks, it should be noted that the SOC specifications are wrong: the chip wasn't made upon a 5nm node
NO WAY.. Google is finally giving users actual Material YOU 😭🎨
It looks like Google is preparing a pretty major upgrade for the Wallpaper & Style app.
We've discovered a brand-new color customization UI that allows users to manually adjust Material You colors and color variants 👀
Google added a dedicated color slider that lets users fine-tune the exact accent tone instead of being limited to the usual color palettes.
What do you think about this?
Let us know down below!
Oh my... Google finally listened 😭🙏
Well, we are just as shocked as you are, and honestly, we can't believe it either... but Google is finally adopting a long-requested feature from its user base.
We are talking about the ability to remove and customize the infamous Google Search Bar on the home screen.
Previous hints of this feature were already discovered in the Android 17 QPR1 Beta 2 code, but today we are showcasing how it has actually been implemented and what it will look like in the QPR1 stable release.
By accessing the home screen settings, you'll be greeted by a new "Search bar settings" sub-menu, which will let you disable or enable the feature. When enabled, you'll be able to completely customize the look of the bar, from the hue and saturation to the shortcut.
For a visual reference, we've attached a short video clip.
What do you think about this new addition?
Does it meaningfully improve your Pixel user experience or is it just a small gimmick?
Let us know down below!
Hey.. we need to talk..
The May 2026 update has been released today! As we’ve leaked before, this update includes a bootloader update for the Pixel 10 series that increments the anti-rollback counter, preventing from downgrading to a vulnerable version of the bootloader.
While we’re out here warning you, there’s a big brick issue that Google refuses to address publicly: b/507968853
As many of you developers know, once a Pixel enters one of these recovery modes:
Pixel ROM Recovery (Pixel 6-8 series)
Pixel BL1 Recovery (Pixel 9 series)
Pixel DBL Recovery (Pixel 10+ series)
The Pixel becomes a paperweight.
We know that Googlers have an internal tool (go/flash/tools/pixel/rom_recovery) and signed recovery images (signed/signed-recovery.zip) to recover a device from such mode.
However, external users don’t have them. Every complaint about that on the Issue Tracker gets a Won’t Fix or a Duplicate of x status.
The primary issue (b/402455330) hasn’t gotten an answer from Google since April 2025.
The continued silence makes it look like the company doesn’t care about its users. The problem has been raised for years. Yet there’s still no public statement.
Everything's changed when a developer (JoshuaDoes) has released a tool called tensor-usbdl that can work with a device stuck in Pixel ROM Recovery mode.
The catch?
- Currently, the tool only has the leaked recovery signed images for the Pixel 7 / Pixel 7 Pro and the Pixel 8 / 8 Pro.
- The Pixel 8 images only work if you have never updated your phone to the May 2025 update. If you did, well you’re locked out for now.
The fact that an independent developer made such a tool proves that Google could do something about this but they won’t, meanwhile no one we know of has taken advantage of it to break the device security.
What do you think about this? Have you ever bricked a Pixel? Let us know in the comment section!
By the way regarding the leaks, we know and we're dropping another bomb soon so stay tuned
Hey.. It’s been too long actually..
We know we promised you something, and here we’re starting with the full-quality Pixel 11 Pro Fold wallpapers, including dark and animated versions:
• Midnight - Lunar Tides
• Pine - Tidal Swirl
Let us know what you think in the comment section!
This isn't a leak, but...
BREAKING: Nekogram is secretly sending your phone numbers to the developer
The backdoor is hidden in the http://Extra.java
file, which differs from the template uploaded to the repository. The obfuscated code sends data as an inline request to the @nekonotificationbot, leaving no trace.
More info about the backdoor: https://github.com/Nekogram/Nekogram/issues/336 (locked by Nekogram devs)
To validate this, we made a PoC: an LSPosed module that replaces the bot ID and username to ours so all requests are going to it. That way, we confirmed that the phone numbers are being collected. Every. Login.
The PoC is available here: https://github.com/RomashkaTea/nekogram-proof-of-logging
What should you do?
1. Report the app on Play Store: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=tw.nekomimi.nekogram
2. Report the repository on GitHub: https://github.com/Nekogram/Nekogram
3. Delete the app and stop using unofficial Telegram clients
Let's play a game.
If this post reaches 500 likes within the next 2 hours, we will drop ALOS wallpapers today
Security just got... Epic? 🔓👀
We've already leaked some details about the Tensor G6 (Malibu) and its connectivity upgrades, but it seems like Google isn't stopping there.
As another great addition to Malibu's enhancements, we have found what appears to be the next generation of Google's security chip: the Titan M3 - codenamed "Google Epic", with firmware-name "longjing"
While it's impossible to assert the actual differences with Titan M2, we can expect some significant architectural improvements, as well as more advanced security features.
This would effectively allow Google Titan to step up its game and compete with the latest iterations of its most direct competitor in the mobile industry, Apple SEP.
What do you think? Will it be an Epic fail or an actually great upgrade? Comment down below!
Happy New Year!!!
Stay tuned for more leaks in 2026 👀
RIP Exynos;
Tensor G1 (2021) - Tensor G5 (2025) 🪦🥀
It's fair to say that Google's Exynos-backed Tensor era is actually coming to an end – day by day.
With the Tensor G5 being the very first Google-made SOC produced by TSMC, the most well-known competitor to Samsung Foundries, it seems like Google is now preparing for another major shift.
We will be straight: Tensor G6 (codenamed: Malibu) is full of surprises, including a brand-new modem, currently undergoing early internal testing.
We're talking about the - latest and greatest - MediaTek M90, unveiled at the MWC2025.
This modem is significantly faster and more energy-efficient compared to the current Tensor G5's modem, the Exynos 5400(i), featuring top-of-the-class features and record-breaking network speeds, possibly putting an end to Google Pixel's notoriously bad battery life as early as next year.
While it's still too early for definitive conclusions, what's your take? Comment down below!
Oh, and, stay tuned for more Tensor G6 & Pixel 11 news, we've a lot more for you 👀
Yep, we will be straight this time... it's a total disappointment 🥀
We're fully aware that many of you were eagerly waiting for some positive news regarding the upcoming Pixel 10a - Google's final device within the newest Pixel's lineup.
However, it is now pretty much safe to say that it will be absolutely boring and disappointing...
So far, the most significant "upgrades" (🤡) are as follows:
• Tensor G4 🥀
• Same exact storage chips found in the Google Pixel 9a (UFS 3.1) 🕊
• No telephoto 💔
• 2000 nits display (200 nits brighter) 😭
• No Magic Cue (at this point)🙏
What are your thoughts on these "best upgrades on a Google Pixel phone yet"?
We should all feel a sense of pride for Google, after all 🥀
Are you counting down the days until the Pixel 10 lineup finally drops?
- So are we!
But, well, here's a twist you didn't see coming: we've already some juicy informations for you regarding the Pixel 12 line-up!
Yes, you read that right.
While Google hasn't even unveiled the Pixel 10 yet, they're already at work on the next-next generation of Pixel phones.
Following, you'll find the codenames for each and every model of the future Pixel phones:
• Pixel 12 - Galago
• Pixel 12 Pro - Sasquatch
• Pixel 12 Pro XL - Silverback
• Pixel 12 Pro Fold - Capuchin
What do you think about Google's fast-paced phones development?
We eagerly wait for your own opinion here, down below!
Although the different backlashes Google is facing from users regarding the decisions with their devices' resources, the research and development behind their new design is still ongoing. Namely, their last work is a revamped Widget page!
This section of the Pixel Launcher is now divided by a menu present below the screen separating the "featured" tab from the "browse" one. The first one contains suggestions of different available widgets, where the other contains all the accessible widgets to choose from.
While the suggested widgets were a simple element on the main page, now they get their own page, possibly with the main purpose by Google to promote their own gadgets. This is something you have probably already seen before; Chinese manufacturers like OPPO and similar use this approach on their software.
This is a small, yet interesting change by the design team which further gives a freshness vibe to the company's launcher, what do you think? Are there any other parts of the interface which require more attention by Google?
*Tock Tock*
There's a new settings around the corner 👀
It seems like Google started testing a brand-new "Enhanced HDR Brightness" feature within the Display settings menu, letting users finally customize HDR brightness to match their own preferences.
While it remains unclear whether this is gonna be released soon or not, there's a certain chance that it might drop as soon as the next QPR1 beta!
What do you think? Don't forget to leave a comment down below & follow us!
⚙️ The dual shade implementation for the quick settings is not gone yet!
Previously, a quick settings implementation containing two separate pages, one for the setting tiles and one for the notification shade, was shown as a work-in-progress replacement for the old style.
Fast forward a few weeks of work, especially after the introduction of the new expressive design, Google is taking the steps of Xiaomi and Samsung and letting the user choose between two different styles for checking their notifications and toggling settings.
This new page contains a switch to change between the "combined" style of quick settings and the "separated" one. The former is the one we have known since forever, while the latter is the dual-shade implemented previously leaked.
As seen in the video, this "switching" implementation is anything but finished; combined quick settings resemble the aspect of previous Android versions, while the separated one is buggy and does not react well to additional content present on the pages. Although, the expressive blur is omnipresent, making this early look still fresh.
This feature was initially found in the beta for Android 16 QPR1, but we expect it to be finished for way after it instead. What do you think of this approach, similar to the famous skins on the phone market?
