ndcide: The tech war and restriction to trade with Major chinese tech giant. The rules of development and advancement states that u should sell your non sensitive tech to other tech companies so that u will make money and they will inturn rely on you. If u refuse to trade, other tech company will be forced to push tons of R & in that direction this means u v s successfully created competition for ur self and they may eventually push u out of market. That is what is playing out in Harmony OS, alternative appstore, the new Chinese socs fabricating plants(SMIC) and the rise of Chinese silicon valey in zhong guan cun. |

seunfly:Huawei have thier own app store called app gallery, where developers can post thier apps there, I don't think it can affect them. Google is shooting themselves in the foot. When harmony os launch and Chinese government force all thier oem to use that will be the end of andriod. Google is trying to create a monopoly, but you know it's not going to end well. |

witnezHD:You are right, harmony os is for iot. If Google tries this, they are shooting themselves in the foot. Recall that Chinese OEM makes up more than 60-70% of the smartphone market share, if the Chinese government force them to use harmony os which is in fact better and more secured than andriod because it's based on micro kenel. The funny thing is that you can install apk on harmony os. Then Google might end up like Nokia. |

Denovan: If andriod 's plan takes effect, what do u think will happen to app galery? Like i v said earlier all other Chinese OEM have seen their vulnerability and they are all wondering who is next after the target of ZTE and Huawei. Their is serious unanounced joint ventures going on btw chinese OEMs and huawei apps gallery is the backbone of the development. |

seunfly:it won't affect Huawei because there's no play store. Most times if you have all this moded apps in your phone, like lucky patcher. Play store will detect it or automatically disable it. I think Huawei will be exempted, if not Huawei will be force to release harmony os, which will bring competition. Chinese people are United, so they hate to see thier companies crumble unlike Nigeria, that's why Chinese government got angry and threatened to sanction Qualcomm, apple and Cisco just because of Huawei. So they can do anything for thier country. if China can build thier spaceships from scratch, after America banned them, from joining thier international space center, and now there are the only country that has landed at the far side of the moon. Then they can do anything my opinion tho |

Denovan: It is not that simple to relaese HarmonyOS, if it was that easy, they would have done so and window mobile OS would still be alive today. Huawei needs apps developers on baord and apps gallery is the answer, with the rumor of app gallery merger going round and the body language of huawei, it is obvious something is fishy and the longtime game is to finally divert all of them to work with Harmony OS which is what Google is against. However, lets wait and see what's up. |
Re: Android Phones Will Soon No Longer Support Installation Of APK Files, See Why by Denovan: 8:33am On Jun 15, 2020 |
seunfly:I get your point, but Huawei have already launched harmony os with thier smart tvs last year. Harmony os is not just an ordinary smartphone os. see link here https://phonemantra. com/huawei-has-released-cheap-smart-tvs-on-its-own-os-harmony-os-without-android/ remove space between . and com it's an os is that will be used in all thier electronic devices ranging from smart watch, tv, pc, washing machine, phones, fridge etc(iot). Their plan is to make sure they have enough apps on their app gallery which will be easy for them in a long run. Huawei would have launched it since in thier smartphone, but they believe in thier friendship with Google. |

What ever Google decide to do they should know that huawei are looking for a slim opportunity to strike. Those guys seems to be the one dominating the tech industry with the exception of OS development |

seunfly:Huh... But I read up that this new installation izh is more of a privacy feature to grant apps temporary permission instead of an all-time pass to your phone storage and data it doesn't need to read. In other words, no need to manually revoke permissions for sensitive apps after using them as each app will have its own isolated storage instead of reading the entire filesystem. I don't see how this issue got anything to do with the trade war, instead I see it for what it is - affecting all Android developers due to slower read/write speeds as some devs reported and adding the new API is a hassle (I don't understand code wella but changing API is one hell of a thing to do). |
Re: Android Phones Will Soon No Longer Support Installation Of APK Files, See Why by ndcide(m): 10:08pm On Jun 17, 2020 |
seunfly: But do you get trumps perspective on these issues? Trump feels that that America should benefit more from their technology whilst considering the security implications of having critical technology needs in the hands of competitors. |
