I have two smartphones, one with Android 9 and one with Android 6. The second phone is not my main phone, purely for calls for one of my businesses.
Long story short, I needed to check measurements on a 15 degree roof. Because the Android 6 phone was handy, I tried the inbuilt installed calculator app and was getting puzzled. So I got my main phone out and it was giving different results. So I tried TAN(45) and the result should be 1. My main phones does that, and the Android 6 reports 1.61977519. With 15 degrees, Android 9 states 0.267949 which is correct, and Android 6 states -0.8559934.
The Android 6 phone is an Honor 7, mint condition but it states, "Android security patch level 1 April 2017". When I check for updates, none available. Probably because the US fell out with Honor, and then some other countries followed suit.
I didn't think a calculator would suffer because of no phone updates. Any ideas?
Just means I just now avoid the calculator on that phone.
