We still need help getting early access to Android 16 sources prior to the stable release in June. Every mainstream Android OEM has it. We're currently spending significant time on reverse engineering Android 16 Beta releases. It's a huge waste compared to having what we need.

Is this happening because Google is now developing behind closed doors and then releasing the code?

This would mean forced delay on releases.

No, it's just a monopoly. Technically Android was already being developed behind the doors, little has changed
