As we all know, almost all domestic mobile phones are using Google's Android system, even the millet miui and the flyme of this highly localized system is also based on Android system development, then if one day, Google is not happy to put the Android closed source, domestic mobile phone is not a system available?
This worry is not impossible, Google recently pushed Android7.0 three months after the release of the corresponding Android compatibility definition document, everywhere revealed Google's right to receive signals. The latest version of the Android standard has become more stringent, and the trend towards a closed source is becoming increasingly apparent, and now everyone is starting to worry about the future of domestic smartphones.
Where do Android systems tend to be closed sources?
On the whole, Google has written two big codes for Android: Aosp and GMS, the former open source and the latter closed. As early as 14, Google will be more and more functions from AOSP to the GMS, mobile phone manufacturers want to obtain the mandate of the GMS, in addition to the production of mobile phones must meet Google's hardware standards, but also to pay the corresponding costs to Google.
If the handset manufacturer uses only the AOSP and does not use the GMS, the production handset will have the more and more function not to support.
Google, for example, no longer allows a wide range of fast-charging standards to emerge, and the Non-mainstream innovations like Oppo five minutes will have no way to go. Also has the split screen multitasking must conform to the AOSP specification, must support calls to block, strongly recommends to add the screen resolution adjustment, as well as the specification voice earphone operation specification and so on. These regulations for like in the system to add a variety of "small creativity" of domestic mobile phones, is definitely thunderstruck.
Why is the Android system going to shut down the source?
Today's smartphones are dominated by Android and iOS, and the iOS system has harvested a good ecological environment due to its closed-source features, and Android has gained a higher market share because it has more hardware manufacturers for open source. But also because of Android's open source features, a large number of manufacturers, operators, application developers and other groups of the Android system and experience changes, so that fragmentation is becoming more and more serious, but also the security of Android applications.
For Google, Android's closed source strengthens its grip on the system, creating a good Android ecosystem, and gaining revenue comparable to the App store. For users, the probability of being harassed by malware is greatly reduced, thus ensuring the security of personal privacy and personal funds.
In fact, Android closed source for domestic mobile phones may not be a bad thing
From the current trend of the Internet, if the system closed the source, whose market will shrink (such as the Nokia in that year). Therefore, if the Android system to the closed source, there must be other open source system to occupy the market, for domestic mobile phones, is also an opportunity.
From ancient times, as long as self-sufficiency can not be limited to other people, speak louder, just as China in the era of backwardness to build rockets, atomic bombs. Android's closed-source trend is the driving force for Chinese handset makers to develop their own mobile operating systems.
Borrow micro-business words: Do not force themselves, how to know that they do not!
