I just bought another android phablet with 5.1 and 3G.
   Android is shit. It locks up and things quit working.

   Somebody needs to do a smart phone with Linux installed.

   I am about fed up.

   Actually, Android is based on the Linux kernel, Paul ;)

   Yes but Google has modified it ( I think)  so it's minute by minute functioning
   depends on an on going connection to google. Consequently if if your
   Internet connection is marginal so is your cell phone. (I think.)
   Not phone calls. That is a tower connection.

   They talk about the Google cloud. This is all I have been able to figure
   out so far. My Linux on my notebook is 100 times more reliable.

I must agree to the most part Paul. Internet can be sketchy. The phone is great.
I have a problem with the i phones. Every new one has a different charge cable plug. My Samsung uses the same cable as the previous Samsung phone. Not sure about Crackberry or others.
