- jayd16 5y agoApp store updates vs OS updates.
- xorcist 5y agoThis distinction is not definitive. None of the normal Linux distributions makes it.
- pkaye 5y agoI thought OS updates require cooperation of the phone manufacturer/carriers.
- xorcist 5y agoOnly because lazy manufacturers ships patched monstrosities that passes for software. If "Android" was responsible for booting and device drivers, or if Android was GPL for that matter, that would have ceased to be the case.
