Smart move for both Dropbox and HTC. Everybody wins, and the users get the most out of this.
Hopefully we're going to see more deals like this, but PLEASE manufacturers, don't make these apps un-uninstalable (like google did with Twitter.. I don't use twitter)
- ZeroGravitas 15y agoApparently ICS makes all apps uninstallable. I'm sure American carries will find some way to muck it up though.
- zrgiu_ 15y agoNah, ICS allows you to disable any application, not uninstall it. It's basically in a state which just uses storage space, which is still a good thing. But who's to say that manufacturers won't modify ICS and disable 'certain features' ?
- Pewpewarrows 15y agoIn order for a phone manufacturer to get the Google seal of approval (which allows you to bundle up the Android Market and various Google Apps in your distribution) their "fork" of Android has to pass a suite of compatibility and assurance tests. Google could simply add that functionality as being required in the test suite to force the phone carriers not to muck with it.
- derobert 15y agoThis isn't new to ICS. "pm disable «packagename»" works on Gingerbread, at least.
