Google is adjusting how Android is made, with the AOSP branch moving behind closed doors, leaving the entire OS to be privately developed.

    This requires the likes of Samsung to move with them to their then propiatary solution. Google is not going to win this just with their Pixels.

    I don’t see why samsung wouldn’t accept this change. do they make use of the AOSP project? if they do, wouldn’t they be able to make a deal with Google to have access to the code?

      I mean. They could go with google and most ideally change nothing, or stay with the open source project and try to cut out a slice of the appstore pie for themselves.
