I also made sure that the dialog is forcefully expanded and fully navigable on devices with no touchscreen.

Landscape is definitely not great. How does it look on a television and or tablet?

About the same, I could add a variant to better use wide displays though.

Switching to a layout that is optimized for landscape to better handle that orientation would be very nice.

The "check for updates" link seems hardcoded to Dolphin's website, however, Play Store builds has a different signing key from the builds from the website and thus they can't be installed on top of each other without uninstalling the previous version first.

Can you detect whether the currently running build comes from Play Store and change the "check for updates" link accordingly? (e.g. Play Store version points to the Play Store app listing, other builds points to Dolphin's website)

I really like the idea but it's not really feasible unless we made a build variant for the play store and the website. I could change it to something like "Get the latest builds here:"? I'm open to suggestions.

The portrait layout LGTM, but the landscape layout still seems a bit weird... I think it's the left column that gives this impression, as it essentially has only the logo. Have you considered moving the "Dolphin" title and the version string (5.0-xxxxx) to the left column, below the logo, and adding a small separator between the two columns (similar to the landscape user data activity)? This might be enough to make it prettier...

Even though I'm not a fan of it I put together a quick draft of what that would look like. I still don't enjoy this look. It de-emphasizes the logo and the divider doesn't feel right to me.

I'm perfectly happy with the existing landscape layout.

Yep, that doesn't look prettier. At least on paper it made sense, but seeing the end result, it indeed looks worse. Please disregard my landscape suggestion...

Does anyone have problems with the design or code at this point?

Design LGTM~
