HotCakeX Yes, I understand what went wrong there. It is nothing short of tragedy that Windows Phone lost out precisely because Microsoft tried to do a proper job of it instead of rushing a lashed-up **bleep**fight to market the way Google did.
But I'm sure you'll understand that I'm not pleased that every time I get an update, performance gets worse, features are pulled and battery life gets worse. I'd roll the last four updates back if I could.

BTW, I have a Windows Mobile which, I, actually, really, like. It's not my 1st, either. Grabbed a Windows Mobile soon as they came available... and, stuck with them. And it, a Windows Mobile, still, does just fine, for me. The Mobile's OS updates rather than, having to update the Mobile, itself, too .
Cheers,
Drew

Good for you,
the apps and the compatibility level with other devices that I need only come with Android OS, which is Open source.companies don't need to seek permission to put Android on their phones. one of them is Huawei which created the best and most powerful phones in the world and they manufacture their phones without Google services or relying even one bit on Google. that's a great thing. to have full control over your product.

HotCakeX Android was an excellent proof of concept and a terrible production implementation. The timeslice management is inappropriate for a portable device. The strategy introduced by Windows Phone and adopted by Apple is much better. Nevertheless, even on these systems, built-in software not implemented as an app is outside the law and can misbehave when inadequately tested.
The right solution is an RTOS with an app sandbox. Curiously, Microsoft just bought an RTOS, or the rights to use one (I'm not clear on that).

what's Apple's strategy that's better exactly?
how can it be better than open source Android OS?
