We usually don’t make it a habit to post about rumors or what ‘sources say’ most of the time but when it comes to the idea of a Google branded tablet (think Nexus tablet), we can’t help but get a little excited at the thought of one. It would be about damn time too that [...]
Google took a bold step this week, by requiring manufacturers to include Google’s Holo theme on all phones running the Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich (ICS) operating system. Google will use the carrot and the stick routine to strongly encourage compliance – they are requiring manufacturers to include the Holo theme if their users want [...]
Take this as a rumor, but Google may be on the verge of launching a Kindle Fire competitor, that should come with the latest version of Android whenever it’s launched – JellyBean. Whether that will be Android 5.0 or just 4.1 or 4.2, it remains to be seen. “Google executive chairman Eric Schmidt has recently [...]
If you give it time, eventually some crafty developers will get it working on another device. That is exactly what happened with Amazon’s Silk browser, which is currently available on the Amazon Kindle Fire tablet. The Amazon Silk browser is supposed to speed up web browsing by utilizing Amazon’s powerful AWS servers. The hacked app [...]
Google Listen, the popular podcast player app from Google received an update today. Unfortunately, the update didn’t bring any massive changes to the app. As a matter of fact, the update did nothing to improve the app at all. The only thing that the update did was remove references to the now defunct Google Labs. [...]

Google wants to know the special places where your little green Android robot has been.

Yes, folks. Sadly enough, according to an email we’ve just received from them Google is ending their huge Google Music sale today where they were offering an extremely large amount of albums for and songs for $.49. Yours truly usually hates going the digital route but at I couldn’t help but pick up some albums [...]
Just a quick heads up that today is the last day for Google's music blowout, in which albums are going for as low as .99 and individual songs are going for, well, a song, at 49 cents each. Selection varies as we're very much missing WMG from from the lineup. But a album is a [...]
Android Central reader @mjroberts22 this morning alerted us to an evil developer in the Android Market. A number of apps from Quarter MiLL look legit. We've featured Super Why Adventures — a children's app — on the site before. But look closely. In the app description, and after paying your 0:600.99 here, you'll note that [...]
We aren't saying that Google got the idea on this one from our picture contest to win the Verizon HTC Merge, but it is pretty similar, except lacking a sweet prize what we gave away. Anyhoo, Google took to its +Android account on Google + asking the coolest place you have taken your Android. Think you have [...]
Looks like emails have gone out to users of Motorola’s Google Experience XOOM devices (the XOOM WiFi available in America, pretty much) alerting them to tests that will begin soon for the device. Of course, one question immediately comes to mind: is this a common bug fixer or something more? Well, considering that Motorola has [...]
When this dropped into our inbox I was instantly excited to share it and couldn’t help it but laugh a little. This is the “official” Siri App for Android — sort of. For those that somehow don’t know, Android actually has an awesome set of features called Google Voice Actions. You can see all the [...]

- It seems users are experiencing another bug with the Galaxy Nexus. According to reports at AndroidForums.com, when making a key-press with the “Touch Sounds” option enabled, users hear the same sound 2-3 seconds after any given key-press. A quick fix for it is to turn the option off but that’s about it until Google [...]

Another day, another VZW 4G outage apparently. While not everyone is on VZW to have the issue, we certainly hear those of you who are. If you're looking to pass some time while we wait for 4G to come back, feel free to vent your frustrations in the Android Central forums with others sharing in [...]
I’m not sure how many iPad or iPhone owners have a Google TV or a Logitech Revue out there, but if you’re feeling left out with the lack of Airplay, then you might want to checkout Airtight. It’s available now in the Android Market for .99 cents. Don’t expect mirroring, but you will be able [...]
Did you give or receive an Android device for Christmas? Even if you did not, it looks like a whole host of people found the green robot under their tree this Christmas.

With Christmas all said and done for yet another year, it's time for those at Google to start looking at the number of devices that got activated over the Holidays. Luckily, Andy Rubin anticipated our wondering and has given up the goods: UPDATE: There were 3.7M Android activations on 12/24 and 12/25. Congrats team-android! Also, [...]
As if the Logitech Revue wasn’t doomed enough already after having a lousy adoption rate and prolonged Android upgrade, the Google TV box is getting another round of disappointing news. Some folks who had enough gusto to drop the cash for the seemingly reasonable and reduced price of for the Revue over the holidays are [...]
One advantage Apple TV holds over Google’s television platform is access to the wide array of media offered through iTunes. Thanks to a rogue developer that isn’t such a problem anymore. Airtight is an app for Google TV that brings the functionality of Apple AirPlay to the Android-based system and allows users to stream content [...]

It’s a nicely produced video and I love the vibe that Google presents of themselves here. Be sure to check it out right down [...]
The Googlers of Building 44 took some time away from churning out Android improvements to spread some holiday cheer. As can be expected from Google, no expense was spared. They even trucked in some snow to make Santa Claus feel a bit more at home. We’re sending our warmest of holiday wishes right back at [...]
Nexus S owners had reason to rejoice when Google announced the Android 4.0 update on its way to the device. However, the update did not come without its problems.

Andy Rubin just let loose a new number on Google+, stating “There are now over 700,000 Android devices activated every day”. That's a whole lot of Android phones and tablets. In fact, that's 4,900,000 per week, 19,600,000 per month, and a whopping 235,200,000! With Android currently having over 200 million active devices, that means we'll [...]

Let’s just get this out of the way: I love this device. Great, now that we’ve got that clear, one of the things I really enjoyed when I first booted up this phone and entered my credentials was the warm welcome that I got via email from Google! It’s apparent that then really want new [...]
