Google is adjusting how Android is made, with the AOSP branch moving behind closed doors, leaving the entire OS to be privately developed.

So, are we going to get any European alternatives to android?

    There is Gigaset who makes phones in a factory in Germany. But their phones are locked with Google play services, and they never attracted ROM development, they also don’t attract the general public to start with.

      There are definitely chip manufacturers in Europe. You could probably build a phone from scratch. But it would be prohitively expensive.
