Huawei's HarmonyOS evolution process relies on hollowing out and is fully autonomous
During this time, we can see that mobile phone manufacturers seem to be ready to move in the system again.
Let's not talk about Huawei Red Devil, it was launched a few years ago. Subsequently, Xiaomi unveiled the SurgeOS with the Xiaomi Mi 14, which is very different from the previous MIUI. Then, Vivo launched Blusos and claimed that it would never be compatible with Android.
In fact, we can clearly see that getting a separate set of operating systems at the national level - this is a great road, but it is also a difficult one.
This road is actually not easy to follow, Huawei has been cautious and constantly making layouts.
From the perspective of Redmi's development process, Huawei is divided into three stages, namely relying on Android, emptying Android, and killing Android.
Relying on Android, this is easy to understand, in the early days, the Hongmeng system has no ecology at all, so Hongmeng only relies on Android, compatible with the Android ecology, in the HarmonyOS system, Huawei has to use AOSP** in order to be compatible with Android.
As a result, a lot of Android shells have been produced on the Internet, saying, not shelling Android, how to use Android app?
For Huawei, this step is a must. Since there is no Google GMS, Huawei has developed HMS to replace GMS, including payment, search, maps and other API interfaces, and then access to Hongmeng manufacturers, it is necessary to use HMS to gradually replace Google GMS, family buckets, etc., to achieve the purpose of slowly hollowing out Android, at the same time, Huawei has also launched a series of tools.
At the same time, Huawei has also launched a series of tools to allow users to develop Android apps that can be seamlessly converted into HarmonyOS apps, allowing software providers to gradually adapt to HarmonyOS.
When the Android system is emptied, in order to make the HarmonyOS system have a better ecology, Huawei will start to kill the Android system.
According to the plan, Huawei will launch HarmonyOSNase next year, this system is no longer compatible with Android, and can only use the special HarmonyOS app, completely breaking with Android.
In addition, Huawei has also thought of a trick by launching the multi-platform development framework Arkui-X, which allows software vendors to quickly reconvert HarmonyApp to Android App.
Huawei's intention is obvious, that is, to wait for everyone to focus on the HarmonyOS app, as for the Android app, wait for the HarmonyOS app to be developed, just use the tool to change it.
It is conceivable that if other domestic mobile phone manufacturers want to follow the path of Huawei Red Devil, they should be similar to Huawei Red Devil, which is divided into three stages: dependence, emptying, and separation.
This process takes time, not short, but also difficult, we have to give these national mobile phone manufacturers more time, more support.
