They actually do this on a lot of the oldest devices, but probably not for the same reasoning. I occasionally come across phones that are too old to support Google Play Services (<2.2 IIRC), so they're stuck on the Android Market, which no longer works.
It would seem that's not made OEMs/Carries feel the need to update them.
- vetinari 12y agoAre you sure? I think that the Android Market on 1.6 (ADP1) still works.
- 9point6 12y agoPerhaps the dev phone has a slightly different situation? I know someone with a 1st generation HTC Wildfire (formerly) for testing and when you the market throws a connection error and refuses to go any further. I've seen the same thing on other Android phones from that era.
