I don't know that it really has anything to do with fragmentation, just that the companies modifying OSA code don't take the time to do so carefully when pushing major version upgrades to previously lisenced devices. Nor do they seem to ever check for additional updates after getting whatever release candidate from Google. Motorola, for example, introduced a wpa_supplicant bug that prevents authentication on secured wireless connections for some subset of original Verizon Droid devices... I don't remember, V 2.2 or 2.3 of android maybe? Subsequent updates have only been to introduce additional bugs, or remove the ability to gain root-level access (fixing "security" holes). Nothing through three updates has addresses the wireless issue, even though release notes for one said it was to "improve wireless performance". > ICS has been horrific. Do you mean in relation to your application, or just on device behavior in general? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Discuss" group.
