Android Dose

Android Police has done a nice writeup on the AdMob data recently released and come to some pretty interesting conclusions HTC and Motorola are the Android dominators at the moment with the Droid being tops in Marketshare @ 21%, I was surprised to see the Nexus One so far down on the list honestly… either way a lot of good info there for those that are interested.

One particularly interesting piece of information is their ranking of the top ten Android smartphones in terms of market share, based on data collected by AdMob in May of this year. You can view the list and each handset maker’s own market share below.

Combined, HTC and Motorola are dominating the Android handset market with an 83% share. It’s going to be very interesting to see how the stats change in the coming months with Samsung, currently at 5% (at least in the top 10 list), gunning full speed to regain their own Android market share.

It was a little busy after I hit the sack last night apparently! I’ve got an X10 Mini Unboxing from AndroidGuys, Admob Stats for May, Australia is getting thier very own Superphone the Nexus 1 by way of Vodaphone!, Yahoo was busy yesterday releasing an entire suite of apps for Android, and HTC and Sprint reboot the EVO 4G OTA update as well as let you know what you need to do if you bricked it!

For all you HTC EVO 4G Owners out there (First let me say lucky you!) If you were unfortuate enough to have bricked your phone during the first update I”m sure you have already contacted Sprint but if you haven’t official word is head to your local Sprint owned store and they will work with you to get a replacement… via Android Police

Second HTC and Sprint were quick to fix the problem and released the OTA update round 2 yesterday… via Everything Android

I didn’t mention this above and I prbably should have but I’m not 100% on the source but here it is, Google is working with OEMs to increase it market share in India and China, These “emerging” markets are of course exactly where Google wants to take hold and in turn dominate the handheld market so it was only logical to go with this! via AndroidOS.in
