Huawei's Android replacement could be called Ark OS

28 May 2019
A metaphorical vessel to save Huawei from the US flood? Too deep?

      OS mostly U.S. monopolize, let's see if Huawei is good enough. I will buy their Huawei Y6 mid range on Ark OS to compare since hardware is 2 years on warranty.

        Why nobody reacted

          And about time too.
          Fingers crossed for huawie's new os succeeds, this should have happened about 6-8 years ago, but other device makers have kind of just given up on their attempts in the past, mostly due to pressure from Google, well now that someone big has already been thrown out by Google and has nothing to lose and everything to gain, we should see a more successful attempt this time, which if it shows earky signs of succeeding could pick up backing from a few others as well, such as Samsung, they all hate being under the thumb of Google and therefore the American government, so I can guarantee there are a lot of people at lots of makers watching what happens with keen interest and if say, Samsung do decide to join Huawei in developing a new os, then more and more makers will follow them, this could be the start of a bug hight between Google v everyone else to see if Andoid keeps its dominance or if a new kid takes over, Google deserve it, they have done very little with android in the 15 years that they have had, fuchsia etc might help them, all depends, but this will put a big dent in Google plans to dominate on botmibile and desktop.
          Google had the perfect oppurtunity to evolve android into something much better, but couldn't be bothered, just laughed when Microsoft decided to suicide their own winmo etc os's and then couldn't believe their luck when Ms bought out nokua/symbian and proceeded to kill both as quickly as possible, leaving the entire market wide open for Google to expand into, without having to do very much at all, which I'm sure is one major reason Google did nothing much with android, no outside pressure to improve it, just a licence to print money.
          Fingers crossed this is the first big nail in the coffin of andriod, there will niw be a very dirty campaign by Google to keep their dominance by killing off ARK and or huawei, there will be all sorts of pressure put on other firms not to join in and help, but every single maker is non American, the American phone market is stagnant and tiny compared with the rest of the world, this is a golden oppurtunity for other firms to get out ftom under Google thumb and to have a dig at the Americans, as well as show America and the rest of the world that American dominance is fading rapidly, a new alliance that decides they don't need/want American sales or interference could/would send America a big, obvious, well deserved, warning !!!

                They could use open-source Symbian OS with in-house UI layer

                  That name sounds awesome

                    Yosef W, 28 May 2019What a convenient name. Hopefully it'd be the Noah's Ark fo... morePossibly unlikely. I could only see this becoming popular in China and other parts of Asia, but would still lose out to Android.

                            What a convenient name. Hopefully it'd be the Noah's Ark for Huawei, and setting the other covenant since the Ark of the Covenant duopoly of Android-iOS.

                              100% support Huawei. Hope other Chinese brands (Oppo, Xiaomi, Lenovo) support the platform too.

                                  Or it's the other ARK whose purpose was to destroy...

                                    I liked the name
                                    it might be the Ark that will save Huawei from drowning

                                      I wish them to succeed!

                                        Well well well ios and android have a new comparator if this happens. And as well as the app stores amazon app store and the windows store but never less this should be interesting to see if they make it run smoothly and easy to navigate the system and store. If it does happen. I want a phone with there new os operating system
