The transition has allowed mobile devices to act much more like PCs, offering end users a customizable feature set. In transitioning from a closed solution, where the hardware and software and all of the various device features are tied together, tested and verified by the manufacturer, to an open platform that must support any combination of third party software 'apps,' the likelihood of devices 'hanging' is much greater.
To support this flexibility, the system hardware also has become more complicated, with dedicated processors for multimedia, communications and power management, where each of these processors must also inter-operate flawlessly. In a new twist on an existing phrase used to describe PCs, the mobile device world has begun to refer to device lock-up as the 'white screen of death' (WSOD). In most cases the end user must resort to removing the battery to force a system reboot to resume device operation. Mobile device manufacturers are well aware of the inconvenience this causes their users and have asked their chip suppliers to provide solutions.
