In the language of a 17th-century pirate, we have news that setting up your Android phone might soon become faster, me hearties! Assemble Debug, a scallywag in the industry, delved into Google’s code and found hints of a tool called “MultiTransportD2dTransport” that could allow for data transfer using both Wi-Fi and cable for maximum speed. Arr, this could make the process much swifter, mateys!But beware, the details be scarce, as Assemble Debug couldn’t unearth much more information from the files. It seems that this faster method might be optional, with the slower cable-only option still available for those who prefer it. Aye, choices be good on the high seas of technology!There be another curious feature called Restore Anytime that allows transferring files from an old Android device to a new one without losing any data or performing a factory reset. But beware, mateys, for there be confusion afoot! The rules be murky, with conflicting reports on when and how data can be transferred. Maybe Google be still tinkering with this tech, or perhaps they be keeping us on our toes with their mysterious ways.So keep a weather eye on the horizon, me hearties, for these new tools might soon be at your disposal.
