audiobook what's up guys david here with another episode of fumble q and A's the show where you get to ask me just about any question you have related or unrelated to mobile tech and where I get to ask you guys weekly questions via polls on our Facebook fan page you can be a part of the polls by liking us on Facebook and get your questions answered in upcoming videos by asking us on Twitter I'll pull all the links you need down below but with that said let's go ahead and get started Terrain asks hey my ask for is getting a little bit slower can you please tell me how to speed up the phone okay so I already made a video covering the top five speed tips to make your Android phone faster which I'll link down in the description box below but for the s4 specifically I'd recommend turning off some of those s features that you may not even be using disable to double tap for SOS feature on the home button and try restarting your phone every once in a while to help clear out the RAM these tips in addition to the top five I tell you about in the other video should definitely help boost your performance just a little bit kamal asks why doesn't no Kia use Android they would have demolished Samsung a long time ago there's no question that Nokia or Nakia can make an incredible Android phone I mean the high-end Lumias the company has put out so far have great build quality absolutely amazing cameras solid speakers in just about everything else you'd want in a smart phone when it comes to hardware which leaves thousands of Nokia fans like you wondering why the company doesn't just go ahead and make an Android powered Lumia well while the possibility of Nokia making an Android phone will technically always exist the likelihood of it actually happening unfortunately isn't all that great why well it really comes down to the business side of things Nokia decided a long time ago that it would have a better chance of success by partnering with Microsoft and being the leader on the Windows Phone platform compared to fighting for second or maybe even third place on Android behind Samsung which by the way just completely dominates Android right now being responsible for nearly 95 percent of the profits earned from selling Android phones in the first quarter now think about that number for just a second if samsung was responsible for 95% of the in the first quarter that means a company like Nokia would have to differentiate itself from all the other Android manufacturers like LG Sony HTC while way etc who are all scratching and clawing for that remaining 5% and on that note that Nokia could have demolished Samsung a long time ago all you have to do is just take one look at a company like HTC and the struggles has had financially despite making arguably some of the best Android phones out and you quickly realize that maybe Nokia made the right decision by going with Windows Phone and partnering with the company with deep pockets like Microsoft Samson this has too much of a grip in the android market right now for someone to come in and beat it anytime soon and considering that Nokia sold more phones than anyone once upon a time their best shot at reclaiming that title might just be with Microsoft in the corner Jason asks what do you think about the rumors that the iPhone 5s will have a fingerprint scanner rumors about the iPhone 5s having a fingerprint scanner have been going around for a really really long time now so I'd be kind of surprised if they don't turn out being true but as of right now most of the rumors point to the home button doubling as a scanner itself allowing you to just swipe your finger down the button to potentially unlock your phone now that in it of itself is really really exciting and should make the process of unlocking your phone a lot more convenient than your traditional password but I think that's only scratching the surface of what a fingerprint scanner would actually bring to the table I can see the fingerprint scanner being used for things like activating different user profiles automatically entering in stored passwords being used to make payments on NFC with passbook or potentially NFC if the iPhone 5s supports it and a whole lot more in short I think it'll be that big innovation that Apple has been looking for so long as they implement it in the right ways with that said though they may or may not be the first ones to come to market with it considering that recent leaks suggest that the HTC One Maxx will have a fingerprint scanner and it might be announced on September 4th so it's gonna be interesting see what happens but I think Apple will have a much better ability to implement it since it does control iOS completely whereas HTC you know only has their skin and they don't control Android as a whole is DVF on both coms weekly poll what are the most important specs in a smart phone I'll let you guys vote for up to three things and the top three specs you guys voted for as the most are in order the battery at number one the processor at number two and finally the display at number three as far as the results go I have to say that I agree with you guys if I could only control up to three specs on a smartphone I think those would be the ones I'd choose but if I had up to five specs I could control I think I'd go with Ram and probably the camera next up on my list but I don't know what would be your top five let me know down in the comments below all right guys this is it for me in this episode of Fung Bluff Q days if you liked it
