And so Google's version of android begins to fall on the day of windows 10's launch that is really bad for them.

Because knowing Windows 10 Mobile will have updates pushed directly from Microsoft and not the carrier that gives them a huge advantage.

Whelp better start converting all the phones and tablets to Cyanogen 11 or 12.

so does this work on tablets or not seeing as i don't think any of them have SMS

Pretty sure the exploit even affects hangouts or any messaging service considering its the OS and not just the app.

Mytube is way better than normal youtube, no ads, 60fps, annotations ON MOBILE.


The thing is this no app bandwagon is a lie, many of the clients we have for existing apps are way better and more frequently updated than the actual one.

Yeah your clear Fire OS patched the bugs long ago but not google.
