I'm not an expert in this matter but the main issue now that Samsung is facing is that it's being accused of patent infringements for selling phones having an Android OS. The situation I want to describe is as follows:
Samsung or any other android phone manufacturer sells their phones without the main OS, but a BIOS-like booter.
This BIOS would then allow customers to install the OS of their choice (In this case Android). (Just like a normal PC)
That would definitely solve the problem of users bricking their phones, but my questions are:
1. Will this help manufacturers evade patent infringement accusations ?
2. Is it feasible ?
Looking forward for your comments
