Perhaps the largest hurdle is convincing users it's worth giving up all the apps they invested in by purchasing that won't carry over to the Tizen ecosystem. Granted that many Android apps are free, but that's only one part. Most users would hate to give up the apps they are used to having and the data they have stored in them as well. Users already mull it over when they switch between iOS and Android (or vice versa). Committing to Tizen or anything else is for many users, too high of a risk with the costs of the hardware and also the time to set it up and find app alternatives.
