Lets go point by point to what you say are a *ton* of "*Mostly-Wrong*"
*Assumptions
*:
1.)
..yes? Just like every free app. Go to "my downloads" in market.
>>> You have not lost your phone or had it stolen ... if you are working
with
your original phone and original gmail account ... then a restore to the
same phone is OK .... That is not the case if " phone is damaged/lost/stolen
"
2.)
...how does that follow? The encrypted-loopback device would work just as
well for commercial apps as non. Nice try though, it is ALMOST reasonable if
you close your eyes, refuse to do any research, and hum you country's
national anthem really loud..
>>> Since Google is storing the paid apps in a private-locked directory
...their intent is to prevent the apps from being copied ... just like they
root is locked to prevent changes... So It
doesn't take convoluted reasoning to know that they would not place
these apps on the SDCard ... and have place them in protected memory in the
/Data directory and not onto the SDCard... Maybe you dont get "the Backup
of apps not being possible under the current configuration" unless you have
a rooted phone ... which the masses of phone owners DONT!!
3.)
...That might be a hint that you are wrong, then.
>>> this reasoning doesn't even need any defense because you have not made
a statement that changes the Statement premise ... " For me this is a
serious limit ...." this is neither an "assumption" nor "Mostly-Wrong" ...
4.)
>>>> " *IF* this ...."
>>> you didn't make any viable point as to how this was "mostly-wrong"
or even an "assumption"
So None of your points have merit nor do they indicate that I have made
"wrong-Assumptions"
Your opinions are just that ...Opinions ... In Items 1.) & 2.) above, you
have not given any
facts that refute my points as being false ... or just merely opinions
...since what I
stated is the current state of affairs with this platform regarding memory
and backups..
Items 3 & 4 are mute because both are what my intentions and feelings are...
and therefore
are not even Assumptions in the first place ....
Thanks for your input though...
