Debunked: 'You will always be able to disable apps in Ice Cream Sandwich'

Jan 17 2012 09:09 AM | PaulOBrien in Android

You know how you were supposed to 'always be able to disable apps in Ice Cream Sandwich'?

Not so much.

See the image below from my Asus Transformer Prime... if Asus can do it, I imagine Verizon and the other crapware-meisters can follow suit! I'm having a poke around to determine exactly what sets that flag...!

Suprised at Asus, particularly as they allow you to turn on/off their customisations in the 'Asus Customised Settings'
