welcome back to android weekly money's Jason this week we find out about Samsung Galaxy s5 possible release date and some sad news regarding cyanogenmod and how we are all getting scroogled will at least according to Microsoft you see the tech giant has been ratcheting up their anti-google campaign as of late not just with a commercial but with anti-google merchandise such as t-shirts and hoodies and what was mother google's official response like this Microsoft's latest venture comes as no surprise competition in the wearable space is really heating up now Microsoft you can say you've been screwed now I know the some of you said you were amazed by the room at galaxy s5 specs some of you said I was probably just all hype and marketing don't get your hopes up while others said just the sound of those specs made you aroused my friend that was an overshare TM of course android authority has been trying to dig deep and sort that out and what we found is that we may not have to wait as long as we thought to see if those rumors are true according dt news the galaxy s5 will hit production lines in 2014 up to three months earlier than expected and lots in March or April again earlier than expected now this isn't the first time we've heard that Samsung might be interested in launching the Galaxy S model sooner than anticipated perhaps in order to make up for the slower galaxy s4 sales last week we shared with you the news that cyanogenmod arguably the most popular custom rom out there was added to the google play store this allowed even mainstream users the power to customize their mobile OS the way they wanted how they wanted it yes I know many of you were just giddy with excitement oh my goodness itself yes but sadly I must tell you that cyanogenmod has been removed from the google play store because as Google States it encourages users to avoid their warranty oh my koi I swear you say that again I'll give you such a pouch yes I feel your pain I do and many other Android enthusiasts are up in arms about it too but you should know that this isn't much of a conspiracy because Google has been consistent about this and it's not a first-time event google has been consistent in its banning of apps that allow users to root the device and void the warranty the easy route app was banned three years ago as was the Thunderbolt root and rage against the cage app since then dear friends this story has exploded a bit beyond to where it needs to you see Android is open source it's not open season there are limits to how far that open source can go Google will limit the access to any developer who threatens Google's dominance within the Android ecosystem it's not a conspiracy it's just a business decision now be sure to check out our own Android whisperer Joe Hindy who goes into the subject in a little bit more detail he may have lost his hair but he has not lost his Android mojo moving on to screw billing in Microsoft's commercial a Chromebook owner comes in looking to sell their device for some extra cash to go to Hollywood Rick from Pawn Stars quickly informed the Hollywood wannabe that without Wi-Fi the Google powered laptop is quote not a real laptop nevermind the fact that there's a growing number of offline apps Rick then goes on to explain that this Chromebook is just another way for Google to steal your data and sell ads he concludes that he can't buy the laptop because he does not want to get scroogled scroogled who knew so where to begin where to begin I mean Microsoft has made up of a lot of smart people they are smarter than me and they must know what i know and i know that microsoft's future is not in my mother's generation my mother's generation may be fooled by this misleading half-truth ridden ad and not by a Chromebook but the next generation the generation why those Millennials they're much smarter than that and they only want devices that are connected the Chromebook identifies the things that they really really want so it's hard to not look at Microsoft is really desperate in this commercial and yes Google does mine our data and sell it for relevant ads I get that but I'd rather do that than pay for those services directly especially because Google does provide some means to manage how that data is used I can basically turn it on or off right now in my google account so pretty lady some might say you didn't get scroogled you got micro dick thanks for watching Android peeps I always have lots of fun chatting with you here if you have any questions for this Wednesday's Android Q&A please put them in the comments below and I will be sure to get to them I do read all your comments take care and listen here buckaroos if there's any more nasty comments regarding Jace I swear to God I will scratch your eyes out
