I would be wary of Android.  Its is complex to secure given the closed nature 
of most handsets.

Unless manufactures provide the complete source, tools to flash chips, proper 
docs on chips and devices unlocked, I would never use such device for secure 
access to Tor.

Presuming these devices have been designed to be accessible by governments is a 
wise bet. It probably the real reason behind devices not providing root access 
or the ability to do custom installs and the various laws to enforce that.

You are on Android 4.4?

Orweb is done moving forward regardless, so I would generally say yes.

However, Orfox is still very early (not alpha yet) and has not been fully 
tested. I would either do your own testing and report back to us, or only use 
the app for non sensitive/critical browsing for now.
