You won't earn any significant amount of Bitcoins mining with a smartphone, I know there are some miner apps for Android, but they're a waste of processing power.
Even with 40 of them bundled together, I doubt that you'll make ends meet, heck you'll probably spend more on fees than anything.

I assume you're talking about this article:

Seems more like a cool proof of concept than anything else.

I don't think Samsung Galaxy S5 is specific in anything. All Samsung hardware are almost the same.

Never heard anything about it, so I don't know if it can mine better than a gpu, or than a i7, but it can't compete with an asic, so it will be worthless when it comes to mining bitcoin. Maybe you can use it for those asic resistant coins (like bitcore or bgold), but forget it if you want to get into bitcoin mining. Even not knowing the technology well, I feel very confidant when I say that you can't mine bitcoin with it, otherwise it would mean that everyone in the mining industry was stupid, and I don't think that is possible of course, since it's a bln dollar industry.

I just saw this on a blog. Indian based blog. How possible really is mining bitcoin through your mobile phone(samsung galaxy s5 to be specific).

From what i saw. It seems that the samsung company set the phones like those hardware miners. Theyve also stated that a 7 samsung galaxy s5 can mine faster than the i7 core gpu. If this is really a success it could really be a big help for us. We can easily buy some of this 2ndhand samsung phones and can easily be in the business
