Application Piracy
This section hasn't been updated since 2012. I can't imagine that the information here is even relevant anymore since 90% of Android devices are using OS versions that were released after that time. If there are no updates to the section, can it be deleted? SSherris (talk) 22:46, 10 January 2017 (UTC)
Any guess why big jump in Android share [majority for one week in the US]..?
[and loss of share], e.g. just majority in the US[1] and similar pattern in at least the UK, but not all other countries, e.g. India. This is probably just a fluke, or release on some phone? comp.arch (talk)

This note 278 for US & Canada is incorrect. https://www.quora.com/What-is-Android-market-share-in-the-US-as-of-mid-2016 — Preceding unsigned comment added by Drkrleitch (talk • contribs) 19:14, 16 November 2016 (UTC)

Android now supports virtual reality as of new features google I/O has given android the feature of virtual reality(VR).An Android Virtual Device (AVD) is an emulator configuration that allows developers to test the application by simulating the real device capabilities. We can configure the AVD by specifying the hardware and software options. AVD manager enables an easy way of creating and managing the AVD with its graphical interface. We can create as many AVDs as we need, based on the types of device we want to test for. Jishnu.07 (talk) 04:08, 30 November 2016 (UTC)

Sexy nomering & namebrands.
There uses to be time where ´sexy´ coin inventions where in, but these days it´s pure drone automation.
Android is used for any miniature tablet sold as a pure telepone with addicional gawdiness for female shopping and kitchenware appliance menu´s. It´s also an extension at hand for any none heterosexual male.
The miniature tablets are:
- Gawdy.
- Have to many apps that are useless for any heterosexual male and overal a distraction from any really wanted context and context. IE, a swiss army knife that is purely one monolithic useless block of mush.
- Can not have the useless propaganda addicional ´purchase me´ software removed with ease.
- Can not be put in a pant pocket.
- Can not be put in a shirt pocket.
- Can not be attached to a utility belt for being way to large to not be in the way.
Definitely none mobile, and in being so, male none friendly.
Socially it would have the nomer of being the paramount new religious sect ´god´ in hand, sponsoring no thought automation, enslavement and homosexuality all at the same time, with a definitely direction in context where ´eunich´ becomes the prime future aspect.
Highly recommended: ´now in the make, Project Eunich, the newest operating system by google, android and microsoft, for all executive modes to come. (Seriously gentlemen, give Bill Gates a call, he has pertinent issues that require resolving before it´s too late to do that bucket list). — Preceding unsigned comment added by 190.73.115.219 (talk) 12:53, 10 January 2017 (UTC)
Uptime
Reliability is not easy to compare , but uptime is useful indicator. Best uptime for each Android version will be nice. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 89.173.44.119 (talk) 18:04, 10 January 2017 (UTC)

Updated Platform usage Stats from same source
The current Platform Usage stats section quotes data from early 2016, the site which this data was found (https://developer.android.com/about/dashboards/index.html) has been updated with data for 2017. I don't have the time to edit this and relevant sources, so hopefully someone else will :) Sincerely, Akjar13 (He's Gone Mental) 09:56, 30 January 2017 (UTC)
