Apps are NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOTTTTTTTTTTTTTT the cause of all the issues. How come on our 2nd phone we didnt download anything for 1 month and still started to have problems on a brand new pone that won pone of the year. Check this out. 1 of hundreds of issues relating to speed and battery not to do wit apps. |
While there are bugs in any software (antennae-gate anyone), note I did say 98% of the time its apps and your settings. Also, I'm betting that bug from 2009 has been resolved. I know my Gnex doesn't experience anything of the sort. In four months I've only rebooted twice. I simply attribute that to the fact that I have a fully computer in my hand and I'd think any computer needs to be shut down occasionally. I know this same thing happens on iOS as well and I'm sure WP.
However, I never see slowness or fore closes... well when I first got the phone, one of my apps was not working. But, a short time later it was updated to fix ICS related issues... I don't remember which app it was though.
The system is vetted just fine. Is it perfect, no. Is it progressing and improving by leaps and bounds at every iteration, hell yes. But so was iOS and WP7 still is. That's the nature of a new OS. Google is also cracking down on how much OEMs are allowed to muck with. For instance, with ICS and going forward they cannot change the structure of the menu system. They also have to agree to upgrade paths that are much more realistic for any phone up to two years. i.e. matching most people's natural upgrades.
Gingerbread was already really good. ICS is damn near perfect. Eitherway, the advice I give to pay attention to your apps is still golden and proven to solve most issues.
