| 19 | <p>Android 4.0 (Ice Cream Sandwich) introduces new features that help |
| 20 | users understand and control how their device uses network data. It |
| 21 | monitors overall data usage, and supports warning or limit thresholds |
| 22 | which will trigger notifications or disable mobile data when usage |
| 23 | exceeds a specific quota.</p> |
| 24 | <p>Data usage is also tracked on a per-application basis, enabling users |
| 25 | to visually explore historical usage in the Settings app. Users can |
| 26 | also restrict how specific applications are allowed to use data when |
| 27 | running in the background.</p> |
| 28 | <p>The documentation in this section is intended for systems integrators |
| 29 | and mobile operators, to help explain technical details they should be |
| 30 | aware of when porting Android to specific devices. These details are |
| 31 | summarized below, and the |
| 32 | <a href="mailto:android-porting+subscribe@googlegroups.com">android-porting</a> |
| 33 | mailing list is a good place for further discussion.</p> |
