Question

question 7
which scenario or situation would prevent a user from upgrading the os on an android device?
the software copyright was not obtained before the installation.
permission was not obtained from the manufacturer.
the hardware does not meet specifications.
the correct patches were not installed.

Explanation:

To determine what prevents Android OS upgrade:

• "Software copyright" is not a typical barrier for OS upgrade (Android is open - source - like in distribution for devices).
• "Manufacturer permission" is not required as users can upgrade via official channels without specific manufacturer permission for standard upgrades.
• "Hardware specs" matter: OS upgrades have minimum hardware requirements (e.g., CPU, RAM, storage). If hardware doesn't meet them, the upgrade can't proceed.
• "Correct patches" are for existing OS, not a pre - requisite for upgrading the OS itself.

Answer:

C. The hardware does not meet specifications.
