> Before we continue with this thread, I would like to do a small poll: > Please write here what you see as advantages of SHR distro against android > system. My main reason: Once again after a couple of weeks I tried Android (yesterday's daily build). And once again, though not with all images I tried, Android insists on "No Service available", making it useless as phone. This never happened (yet) with SHR.
And: As required I installed Android on "a fully charged Freerunner". After less then 12 hours, with "No Service" (=no phone calls) and Wifi/GPS/Bluetooth turned off, the battery was almost empty. SHR nowadays keeps running for 2+ days. (Just to put my last statement into relation: My wife does not take the charger for her Nokia with here during the week - having turned on Wifi and Bluetooth all the time...) Otherwise I completely agree with you that Android has a more consistent look and feel. To me SHR reminds me of Linux back in 1995, just before KDE/Gnome started to conquer our desktops. But than again it just does what it should do and I believe nobody expects or even wants to get a "IPhone experience" I also agree with you that doing a "kill -9" is not something I -even though being a Linux-only user and therefore very familiar with the command line-, would accept on my phone on the long run. But as you stated already, Google pours a lot of money into Android to make it work smoothly. SHR is pure voluntary work by the hands of few people who can fix only so many bugs at a time and improve the interface only so much.
