LOOKING AT THE
OPERATING SYSTEM
The term Android can refer to either an Android mobile device or
to the Android operating system. The Android operating system
powers all Android devices. Think of it as the underlying software
that instructs your device what to do, much like how the Windows
operating system powers laptop and desktop computers.

When you install an Android app onto an An-droid device, you are
installing an app that was written specifically for the Android
operating system. You can install Android apps onto a Windows
computer-and even on Macs and Linux PC-but only if the computer is
running special software called an Android emulator, which crea-tes
a virtual Android device on your computer. Speaking of Linux, the
Android operating system is actually an offshoot of the Linux
operating sys-tem. Since its inception, however, Android has
developed into a robust, independent operating system designed for
mobile devices, and its not actually directly compatible with
Linux.

By Daniel A. Begun from Amazing Android Apps For Dummies
1 Android is an open source operating system a large community
of companies and developers maintain it and contribute toward
developing newer versions of it. This al l takes place under the
auspices of Google, which bought the company (Android, Inc.) that
first developed the Android OS. Unlike Apples iOS operating system
for mobile devices, the Android operating systems ongoing
development isnt hidden behind lock and key. In fact, about 80
companies are members of the group the Open Handset Alliance that
10 contribute towards the further development of the Android
operating system. All of this openness allows for innovation from
many different sources. This also allows for many different Android
devices in all shapes and sizes, which creates a compatibility
problem for the app developers. The compatibility issue with
Android devices has even got a name: fragmentation. Manufacturers
can modify the Android operating system as they see fit for their
devices. This allows them a way to 20 differentiate their devices
from their competitors devices, by adding unique features. This
also results in different customized versions of Android running on
different devices. An example of this is that mobile phone maker
HTC inserts its own HTC Sense user interface into many of its
Android phones, whereas Samsung puts its own TouchWiz user
interface into its Android devices. The following figure shows a
couple of screens from the Samsung Epic 4G Android phone.

Mobile device manufacturers also control which version of the
Android operating system powers their devices. 30 Just because an
update to the operating system is available doesnt mean that a
manufacturer is willing or ready to update a devices operating
system.
Another big differentiator between devices is the hardware that
runs them. Some Android devices have big screens, fast processors,
and lots of bells and whistles; other Android devices have tiny
displays, slow CPUs, and very few extras. And there are plenty of
Android devices that fall in between these two extremes.
All these differences between Android 40 devices wind up
creating huge heada-ches for app developers. They need to try to
ensure compatibility on many different devi-ces, using dissimilar
hardware, running vari-ous versions of the Android operating
sys-tem, and must take into account any custo-mizations made to the
Android operating system by the manufacturers.
The end result is apps mayhem. In some cases, the apps sim-ply
wont run on some devices. Other times, the apps run, but certain
features wont work. And in some instances, the apps appear to run
fine for a few minutes, but then suddenly stop working.
