Google’s next flagship devices are in work and we still have more than 6 months for the launch and the leaks already started popping over the internet. This leak doesn’t say anything about the specifications of Pixel 4 but it reveals the codename which the company uses for their internal testing.
Today, A commit posted a solution to fix the Android SELinux to the Android Open Source Project. SELinux is a security module for the Linux kernel, which is often fine-tuned on a per-device basis. The developers tried to fix that issue by giving a list of commands. The internal command files accidentally revealed the codename of Pixel 4 and Pixel 4 XL.
The below command includes six pixel devices and four of them we already know so the remaining two could be or is the Pixel 4 and Pixel 4 Codenames.
