I'm not sure if it's worth using the extra space to show radio buttons (...) I guess it does show you what was previously selected?
It also shows that you are looking at a list of options instead of a submenu. Although I guess that becomes clear soon enough when you pick one. (And in theory you could know the difference because it was showing a value)

You mean launcher vs. in-app menus? If so, yes-ish - they will both behave the same way at least.
I meant that top launcher menu (Messages, Android, Settings, About, ...) is different than submenus (e.g. Settings submenu).
That is confusing and also the submenus don't work that well: I often get item-click when I meant to scroll.

Yeah, it should be a checkbox (or switch icon) so when there are >1 it's not confusing. I'm not sure if it's worth using the extra space to show radio buttons for multi-choice items? You won't ever see them change, but I guess it does show you what was previously selected?

Yes, I'm not sure there's an easy way around that with this design - I think most people will expect to be able to tap on the item they are interested in. It should be pretty easy to modify it later to highlight the 'middle' item and have tap to select though, so it could always be a new app.
