Android has fundamental flaws which cannot be easily fixed short of rewriting the entire operating system. The concept of allowing vendors to modify and customize their system is fine, however letting them to choose whether if they want to offer updates or not is a retarded gaping flaw which is the primary reason why Android is seen as a pajeetware among the general public. The idea of having to hack your phone and flash an image made by an Indian is comical and tragic. It has been built into a virtual machine where the processor not only has to transcribe the retarded pajeet code into binary, it also has to operate this virtual machine and somehow run the code seamlessly. The security system in Android is a joke. It has come to a point where developers can distribute data mining apps in the official repository of the operating system and go unnoticed by Google. Apps can refuse to operate if you don't let them access to every part of the system, which is a bannable offense in the App Store. Android apps can inject root kits into the firmware and persist between factory resets, which is impossible to do on any iPhone.

Now, I can understand defending Android for the freedom it provides, torrenting, third party repositories and customization is some of them. But, in the sake of preserving the hipster attitude and looking down on fruity toddler toys, the community overlooks the fundamental flaws in this operating system that needs to be addressed. You may scream and cry but its an indisputable fact that Android tries to be jack of all trades master of none. The engineers at Google somehow got the idea that shitting out new features without properly auditing them is fine. They can't comprehend the idea of throughly auditing Android and addressing the security flaws in their system. Make sure to address these issues before claiming a contrary opinion to the title.

Long story short, I'm still a quite newbie to modern smart phones.
Had a Samsung Galaxy S3 for 3 years, my first "true" touch-screen toy and Android device ever, but its battery, USB port and screen all started to fail in numerous ways, so it was time to update.
Got the Xcover 4 for muh rugged design + physical buttons, and I do love it. Feels great NOT having to recharge the thing every single day too.

But now I've come face to face with some pretty shocking revelations, that probably are totally old news for most cellphone geeks: the SD card no longer is directly "supported" by new Android builds, as in only factory installed apps can directly use it as their storage media.
Apparently, in order to remedy this issue, you either need to let the system "adapt" the entire card (format, encrypt, make it useless in other devices...), or root the whole phone, install fishy hacks (or brand new OS), and hope that the few sensitive daily apps I might actually need (ie. bank and credit programs) don't shit the bed afterwards.

...And this has apparently been going on for a few years now?
CyanogenMod, the only mega-hyped savior of Android freedoms I knew, was also killed just recently?

Are there ANY smart alternatives for this bullshit this day and age? I now really want to get off Google's ride, ASAP.

The image is an average of 500 pictures taken free standing with a cell phone.
The corrected average are the images aligned and then averaged. The resulting picture is like a long exposure.

In the graph one can see the movements my hand did in pixels and the angles (the angles could be calculated in a preciser way although it's really resource intensive since is an iterative solution)

The image registering is done with a cross-correlation algorithm. The process is time expensive but I'm trying to make it better.

For who is interested in the code:

Here is a video of the images taken:

What you think are possible applications of this technique?
Do you think light painting will work?

I tried already noise reduction from low exposed pictures, noise and quality improvement of digitally zoomed images
