Top 5 News: KitKat update roster, block ads, Nexus 5 and S3 solutions -[AndroidTutor2018]

AndroidTutor2018- It's actually been a relatively quiet week in Android, so we've had time to share some great apps, tips and how-to solutions for various issues and devices. We also posed a survey last week, and the result was surprising. When we asked our readers which manufacturer handles Android updates the best, the surprise winner was Samsung with 58% of the vote, despite the awful Android 4.3 update.
