Device Administration
Activating this feature allows Google to administrate
your phone in a way similar to IT security settings on
a corporate PC. This would be beneficial in the case
that your phone was lost or stolen. The phone could
be “deactivated” or “restricted” (through
administration) from a remote location.

Applications
This phone can be used for Android development. You
can write applications in the SDK and install them on
this device, then run the applications using the
hardware, system, and network. This feature allows
you to configure the device for development.
Warning!:
Android Dev Phones are not intended for non-
developer end-users. Because the device can be
configured with system software not provided by or
supported by Google or any other company, end-
users operate these devices at their own risk.
Unknown Sources
Before you can download a web application you must
enable the Unknown sources feature (enables
downloading). Developers can use this option to
install non-Market applications.

application because it comes from an “Unknown
source”, enabling this option corrects this issue.
