This mystery device just hit and cleared its Bluetooth certification but we know nothing about it. Some are thinking it may in fact be a 7″ tablet headed to Verizon although the picture below says “phone” a few times. The model number SCH-I800 was used for the original Galaxy Tab 7″ on Verizon so this [...]
It’s been almost a week since the release of the Sprint Samsung Galaxy S II Epic 4G Touch (that’s a mouthful!) and we’ve been hearing murmurs of bugs and other general weirdness affecting the device. Some of the bugs include force closes in the calendar and 4G disconnecting when you’re on a call. According to [...]
After a very long wait, the Samsung Galaxy S II has finally made its way to America. Sprint was the first carrier to bring it out with their Samsung Epic 4G Touch and we’ve had a bit of time to get down and dirty with it. Will this phone be worth your pennies after all [...]
Launchers are a dime a dozen now-a-days, there are tons and tons of options in the market, some free, some paid, many doing similar things in the end. When I first caught wind of Rocket Launcher I thought to myself “oh, another launcher to do the same thing” but as always I checked [...]
If you’re a fan of GAMEVIL and its lineup of pretty incredible game titles like the Zenonia series, then you’ll be glad to know that it has released yet another RPG-style game into the Market today entitled Destinia. In Destinia, you play the roll of an Imperial Guard member thrown in jail for defying an [...]
Who wants to play some life-sized Fruit Ninja right in the living room- I know I do. What we have here is a home-brewed, man-made Android 2.3 Gingerbread tablet-like device running on a 23″ display. This thing is truly awesome and he outlines how it was made for just 0 dollars. The man behind the [...]
This isn’t the first time we’ve seen the 1.5 Ghz dual-core powered HTC Ruby (aka Amaze 4G) before, but today sources have revealed an actual press release image rather than just a blurrycam leaked photo like back in August. While we don’t learn anything new here seeing it out and around again is a good [...]
With some hard work and a few weeks of time, Martin Drashkov was able to put together a massive 23-inch Android tablet. He calls his device the Android MegaPad and believes that the MegaPad could one day become a mainstream computing device. The massive 23-inch tablet was built using off-the-shelf components and cost only 0. [...]
A new press shot for T-Mobile’s upcoming HTC Amaze 4G (Ruby) has just surface online. While this doesn’t provide any new information on the device, it does give us a clearer view of the device’s form factor (from the front anyway). I’ve personally had some hands-on-time with the T-Mobile version of the device and can [...]
We let you all know not too long ago that US Cellular would be getting their own variation of the Motorola Photon (Full review) later this month dubbed the Motorola Electrify and now — is later. Tonight at midnight, the Motorola Electrify will be available online through the US Cellular website and in some store [...]
Artem, from AndroidPolice, had a brilliant idea. Lets compare boot times for 3 various HTC devices against the recently released Epic 4G Touch. Why might this be important you ask. Well consider the fact that you may need to restart your device for some unknown reason, say it froze or something. The time it takes [...]
Remember the HTC Holiday we showed you about a month ago that’s supposed to be coming to AT&T’s LTE network- Well South Korea is getting a device that looks amazingly similar for its LTE network called the Raider 4G. Rocking Gingerbread, a 4.5-inch qHD in-plane switching display (IPS is the same technology used in the Retina displays), [...]
Last last week, it came to our attention that a new update was ready for the DROID X, and it looks like it is rolling right now. A few of you have written to me letting me know you go the update, but unfortunately it’s not available to me yet. You can check your phone [...]
On tonight’s The Android Show on Radio Android: We will be talking live on the air about all the latest Google + enhancements, NFC, Quad core chips that are really Penta-core chips, flixble phones you can wrap around your beer and make it act like a coozy (ok not really) and what is going on [...]
Is it me or is HTC just going crazy with phone announcements- it seems like they’re announcing a new phone every week! Today, HTC announced a brand new Android handset to its already massive lineup of smartphones. The HTC Raider 4G is HTC’s latest announcement.

Popular messaging app textPlus has just been updated in the Android Market. The service allows you to create your own user name to share with other textPlus users and even provides you with your own unique phone number for sending out SMS messages for users who aren’t yet signed up for the service. Today, they’ve [...]
Looks like the just-released Samsung Epic 4G Touch is dealing with a few new-device hiccups. Both issues are relatively minor, but are noticeable (and annoying) nonetheless. For starters, the calendar app may (or may not) force close when multiple events are dismissed at the same time. Secondly, if you’re using 4G hotspot and take a [...]
Samsung has released the kernel (and other open-source bits) source for the AT&T version of the Galaxy S II (check out our hands-on), well in advance of the official October 2 release date. While it doesn't include the files needed to build things like Touchwiz, which are not open sourced, it should give developers a [...]
The greatest hurdle with gaming on a mobile device is the ability to game with others. There are a handful of games available that allow you to play against or with your friend, but not a lot. Some of them will only work via WiFi when connected to the same network, others are limited to [...]
An entry level slider, the LG Enlighten, will be on sale over at Verizon Sept. 29th for .99 on contract, after a rebate. With an 800MHz processor it’s certainly not top tier, but we have to remember not everyone wants a 0 dual-core (even though they may need their mind changed). Add in the sliding keyboard [...]

A new software update has begun rolling out for the Droix X. Build number 4.5.605 otherwise known as “the keyboard fixer update” should address a lot of the issues Droid X users have been reporting while using the virtual keyboard on the device. Things like freezes, random reboots have been plaguing the device so this [...]

While Samsung may have promptly released the kernel source code for Sprint’s Epic 4G Touch on release day, it has gone one step further with AT&T’s variant and already uploaded the code to its Open Source Release Center. AT&T just announced the launch date of October 2nd this morning, so this makes the code available [...]
If there was any doubt that Spotify would continue its crushing blow to the top of the streaming music world, today might well be the last time such a doubt was spoken. What we’ve learned, straight from the source of course, is that the Premium service that’s available with Spotify streaming music service has now [...]

Google voice is currently being tested outside of the U.S. preparing for an international launch. During the European Pirate Summit in Germany, Jens Redmer, Google’s European Director of Business Dev., told entrepreneurs that Google is “taking concrete action” on bringing their telephony service to Europe.

Last week we mentioned US Cellular would receive the Motorola Electrify and now it is being pictured with the HTC Hero S, confirming it’s headed to the market soon. Originally known and leaked as the HTC Kingdom, [...]
Sometimes you just need to play a game that makes absolutely no sense. Something with a completely nonsensical, ludicrous plot that has simple mechanics and colorful graphics. That game is Muffin Knight. Writing this, I’m still not really sure what Muffin Knight is about. I’ve gathered that you play as a little warrior and [...]

When I am looking for MIUI themes or certain elements of a theme, there are a few things I personally look for. The first being uniqueness. I am a sucker for a theme that is different that I haven’t seen something similar to yet. The second is functionality. Various lock screens can provide you with [...]
Bigger is better right- Our phones are getting bigger and bigger, but our tablets seem to be stuck at 10-inches. I would think manufacturers will start to push the 10-inch boundary soon. Android modder Martin Drashkov is already thinking ahead because he just made the largest Android device I have seen. He more than doubled [...]
If the Samsung Galaxy Note was a little too big for your liking maybe this device will be more your size. The Samsung SHV-E120L first showed up in a NenaMark benchmark result a little while ago and although it clued us into its 1.5GHz Snapdragon processor, 1280×720 display and running on Android 2.3.5 not much [...]
