Google Removes Android Apps for T-Mobile

March 31st, 2009 by Arjan Olsder Posted in Platforms: AndroidOS | No Comments »

Some Android developers are having a very bad day today. Google has removed various applications from the Android Market as they would violate the usage agreement of T-Mobile USA.

The problem is that applications are not allowed to enable tethering. This is sharing a 3G internet connection with a computer. The reason behind this step is that the Open Handset Alliance has defined that apps may not violate the rules of any operator. As so, this will probably impact consumers all over the world.
