    while i agree to some extent it never been that aggressive before, have you heard that dial-er and SMS apps are no longer included in the android open source stock making it bit harder for custom roms maintainers

      I heard about this too, it’s a really rough one. Removing essential mobile phone functionality from a mobile OS’ source code makes no sense to me at all

        Google wants to maintain control of Android. In theory, Android is open source. However, Google doesn’t want the open source bits to be enough to create a competitor.
