Last month, Google released the Android 14 Developer Preview 1 to Pixel smartphones (4a 5G to 7 Pro). As we are still months away from the tentative Android 14 release, Google appears to be already working on Vanilla Ice Cream, which is the code name of Android 15.
According to Mishaal Rahman, the internal code name of 2024’s Android 15 operating system is Vanilla Ice Cream. This leak arrived quite earlier compared to the last year as we got to know the dessert code name of Android 14 in late April.

You may have been wondering about how this came too early as Android 14 is in the early stage. Well, it’s possible that the company may have made some code changes in the Android Open Source Project (AOSP) and the developer discovered it in that.
In the past few years, Google made dessert code names limited to developers and public Beta stages during development. Now, new versions of Android are just expressed as versions such as Android 14, Android 13, Android 12, and so on.
Dessert code name naming flashback:
- v14 – Upside-Down Cake
- v13 – Tiramisu
- v12 – Snow Cone
- v11 – Red Velvet Cake
- v10 – Quince Tart
Android 14:
Google seeded the first Developer Preview build of Android 14 last month, with an aim to deliver Stable software by August. The company is likely to begin the Android 14 Beta program for general users, and the announcement may happen during Google I/O 2023.
One UI 6.0:
We just revealed which Samsung devices are eligible for the One UI 6.0 Beta program, which you can check here. The company may start the One UI 6 Beta program nearly at the time of the stable Android 14 release by Google. We believe, Samsung devices may start getting stable One UI 6.0 update by October 2023.
2024 One UI:
One UI 6.0 is a mature software skin in the Android segment, which is known for its futuristic and impressively developed features. Samsung is continuing the version strategy since the launch of the original One UI version way back in 2019. And if it continues, we will welcome the One UI 7 in 2024.

One UI 7 to bring Android 15’s secret Landroid screensaver
![Samsung Half-screen darkening issue](https://www.sammyfans.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/galaxy-s24-plus-img.jpg)
Android 15’s Easter Egg includes a secret Landroid screensaver mode that One UI 7 might borrow. Samsung’s next One UI iteration will be based on Android 15 OS. Core Android features such as Easter Egg will be included in Galaxy’s next major upgrade.
Debuted as a Landroid screensaver, Android 15’s Easter egg was added with the latest Beta. Google News Telegram channel’s Nail Sadykov discovered that the Easter egg game is equipped with an integrated screensaver mode.
To activate Easter Egg, head into Settings followed by About phone and Android version. Once done, tap the displayed Android version several times until you see the Android 15 bugdroid logo floating in space.
Space travel mini-game will be available to play added with Android 14. When you initially trigger the mini-game, you should have unlocked the new screensaver, tucked away under Settings → Display & Touch → Screen saver → Landroid.
After activating the screensaver, you can set your phone on your desk. Now, the phone will let you watch the Easter egg game take over in autopilot mode, as the spacecraft automatically dodges planets – it provides a better experience on a tablet placed on a dock.

Android 15 might let you share AI-generated wallpapers

Google introduced the AI Wallpaper feature with the Pixel 8 series. The same functionality is also available in Samsung’s Galaxy S24 series thanks to Genini Nano. Now, Google is preparing to make AI-generated wallpapers sharable with Android 15.
Pixel’s ability to create AI-generated wallpapers is quite popular among users. Currently, the feature only allows users to generate stunning wallpapers and apply on the home screen and lock screen. Sharing with someone presently requires to be saved as a screenshot.
Threads user @the_husbandalorian discovered interesting evidence in the latest Beta. The company is working on a new option in Android 15 to share AI-generated wallpapers. A new share button is added on the preview screen in the wallpaper picker interface.

The preview will display how the wallpaper will be applied to your phone’s home or lock screen. The pencil button will allow you to refine the prompt used to create the wallpaper. Share button is all you need to share AI-generated wallpaper with others.
At present, the ability to share AI-generated wallpaper is broken. It suggests the feature is still under development and requires additional work. The next Beta might make it functional for Beta users, and we guess public availability with a Stable rollout.
