Development is dying

[blap017]

Beans has said that mobile developement is dying due to companys trying much harder to block us out. Why do it android was built on this platform. I personally own an android for the reason to make it what I want ( with help from everybody here) so why are they locking us out? I understand the company does what verizon says but why not leave holes for us? It used to be that way now its like the company wants us out as much as the carrier!

Anybody have opinions on this I just dont understand

Money talks. The more vzw can keep us out the more additional products they can sell us.

Vzw is a big company with good negotiators. Samsung wants to keeps offering their products to vzw consumers... and they realize it's vzws call.

Back room dirty politics. Its everywhere.

Yeah they're making their money now and got lots of popularity so no screw u. That's Sammy. Moto and HTC are going the other way leaving holes but once they come out of slide they'll change too.

My opinion is for you to take your sap and negative opinion else where.

This is a community of support and Improvement.

Yes with every update, new work arounds needs to be made.


And one would be very ignorant to think this is like the First time this happened with a brand new device.

It hasn't even been out a month and you're saying it is safe to say development is Dead?


There will be a work around released eventually.
It may come out by this weekend, it may come out by winter holidays or it maybe it will be worked out by spring.
For all we know, we could just end up in the same boat as the s4.

However, i strongly advise you to

Be patient and show your support to devs working day and night
or go follow another forum.

Thank you.

I think that a lot of this has to do with security of the Android system. Remember that we get root and bypasses by dev's finding holes in security. That means that those same security holes can be used by rogue hackers to steal data. It's a big deal for all of us and especially for businesses. If Verizon and the phone makers wants to sell Android on the enterprise level, they have to prove that it's secure for enterprise use. For most users, this isn't a big deal. They just use stock. But for us...
I think the real issue here is that carriers are exploiting those of us who want an open device by charging full price and by releasing it much later than their locked devices. THAT'S the BS IMO

Ummmm....top poster. Just unnecessary. OP is not putting down devs. He's restating what the devs are feeling..are you following devs on Twitter? Some of the very best out there are refusing to touch a Samsung phone and many are just tired. Development isn't dead. It just evolves.

I think we should all say f sammy, htc, lg and anyone else other than nexus.

Android is going to take a huge blow once iPhone releases a bigger screen. I mean let's be real, if they start locking us out, what's the point of Android.

@bigtoysrock I love you guys and your roms, goodness was the best!!!! But I hate this cat and mouse game, I left iphone because of the screen size, battery life and XDA. Sammy is taking away the thing I love the most XDA U.S development. Or should say slowing it down

Phone just came out... give it a few.. you guys expect it to be here now now now. If you can't wait try finding the exploit and making work and make a program etc. Patience. Plus you know what you were getting into when you bought a lock phone.

You need remember that it isn't htc or Samsung or any of the others for the most part. But rather verizon and at&t. Any of the other carriers can unlock their bootloaders on practically every android device
