Android 12 AOSP release coming on October 4

Google released its final beta build of Android 12 last week and now XDA’s Mishaal Rahman shared an internal Google document which details the Android 12 source code will be published on Google’s Android Open Source Project (AOSP) on October 4.

In the past years, the AOSP release date coincided with the stable

release of new Android versions for Pixel phones and it’s more than likely this will be the case with Android 12. For reference, Android 11’s source code was published September 8, 2020 which was the same date Pixel phones got Android 11.

Once Google publishes the source code on the AOSP, OEM’s like Samsung, Xiaomi and Motorola can implement the new Android version into their own software skins. Do note that the AOSP release date is yet to be confirmed by Google officially and may be subject to change.
