Android Bugged

10 Nov, 2008, 2:10 pm IST | by Shayne Rana | Smartphones

It would seem like the first chink in the Android OS' armor has been discovered. According to reports, the bug apparently assumes that certain words typed while messaging that could be also be construed as a command are actually interpreted as such and the OS complies to the effect. So far there haven’t been too many instances of the same problem.


The same reports also provide some information for users to see if they will face the same issues. Users would be required to follow the following instructions – Go to the menu, settings and the About phone option to locate a Build number. Users who have kila-user 1.0 TC4-RC29 115247 ota-rel-keys,release-keys will have to face the fact that they’re probably going to have problems as mentioned. Later models after RC29 would be hopefully fixed with an update in the firmware.
