Software version numbers of emteria.OS always consist of three parts: “emteria.OS X.Y.Z“
- X is our major version, which is equal to the major Android version on which the release is based.
- Y is increased for a new Beta or Live version.
- Z is 0 for Beta and Live versions and is increased by one for every Nightly version published.
This version numbering starts with Android 9 for the Phytec Polaris board and Android 11 for Raspberry Pi 4. This way we ensure clarity about the Android version, on which a release is based, and what kind of release it is.
For example: emteria.OS 11.1.0 means the release is based on Android 11. In addition, the zero indicates that it is a Beta/Live version and the 1 shows that it is the first such version for this device. Whereas, emteria.OS 11.1.3 indicates that it is the third Nightly version after this Beta/Live version.
Note: We do not recommend using nightly versions in production and generally only offer support for Live versions.
