Not sure if you know this but most apps are games. So that's a bit funny to say "this isn't an issue unless your making a game".
And I'm also not sure what you work on, but testing on an Android is a nightmare. Most of the issues on apps for Android are (My XYZ phone the app doesn't work). Just go through and read them, that's mostly what the issue is.
> Google has and can have no control over how Android is implemented or updated by various OEMs
Yes it does, it's Google's OS it has complete control over what people do with it.
- zaphar 14y agoNo, Android is open source. Google has no control over what people do with it. The only thing google can control is if their branding shows up on the phone. Amazon for instance uses it without any of the google branding and the open source license means They don't have to consult with Google at all. So your final sentence is 100% false.

Not really, AOSP is open source. Too much control would have brought forks, not now though which is why google is enforcing licensing for people who to use the Android market.
