Google is
serving up Ice Cream Sandwich with a new base version that promises several
improvements and bug fixes for the Android operating system.
Google just announced on the Android Developers' blog that Android 4.0.3, an
incremental update of Ice Cream Sandwich, will become the base version for ICS
vendors starting sometime in the “weeks ahead.” As for what's included in the
release, the usual bug fixes, optimizations and a “small number of new APIs for
developers”.
The new application programming interfaces include Calendar enhancement,“Improved
content access for screen readers,” and other enhancements to “graphics,
database, spell-checking, Bluetooth, and more”.

Developers can also tap into other features with the new 4.0.3 APIs (application
program interfaces). One API lets developers of calendar apps add color and
attendee details to events so that people can more easily track them.
One quick developer who installed 4.0.3 has faced some problems, notes Engadget.
The update apparently wreaked havoc with his Motorola Xoom tablet's GPS, camera,
video playback, and a couple of other features. So other enterprising upgraders
may want to proceed with caution for now.
