So… we talked of “our” AndroidOne anomaly / bug to a friend who’s in Google.
thanks for reporting this. We will look into it and get back to you. However one thing I noticed was that the Android OS versions on the two phones were different – one was 5.0.0 and the Android one was 5.1 That could be the source of the difference but we’ll check.
Our response – it is definitely an AndroidOne anomaly! Blog post on this coming soon…
