As we already know, Sprint is going to roll out its next generation 4G LTE network in four U.S. cities somewhere around mid-2012, and it would only make sense that they already have some of the towers undergoing testing. The first of such alleged tests surfaced online today: While I can’t promise you it’s 100% [...]
What's an ETF? An early termination fee is something you agree to, albeit grudgingly, when you sign a contract with a carrier. In return for, say, Verizon, selling you a phone for 9 instead of the “full” 9 off-contract price, you agree that you'll stay with that carrier for a given amount of time. In [...]
Well, it looks like someone doing ad-serving for CNET pulled the trigger a little early. If you head over to this CNET page (it may be taken down soon, in fact, it almost certainly will) you’ll see an ad for the Sprint Galaxy Nexus, the first 4G LTE phone to hit Sprint’s upcoming LTE network. [...]
TELUS, one of Canada’s top carriers, officially announced that they will be releasing the Samsung Galaxy Nexus on January 13. There was no word about how much it will be sold but we suspect it will be very similar to Bell and Virgin current offerings of 9.99 with a 3-year contract. Rogers and Fido will [...]
EA has finally released member of the Command & Conquer series of games onto the mobile platform for Android. Currently this is only available through their own EA Mobile storefront through your carrier, if you have the shortcut to the EA Store installed on your phone.

The carrier-connected Honeycomb tablet arena hasn’t been very successful up to this point, mostly due to the outrageous prices that the units have been showing up with — we’ve yet to see one for less than 0. Enter the Pantech Element, a “waterproof” tablet that looks to change the game with its sub-0 price tag. [...]

The holiday season may be over, but that isn’t stopping T-Mobile from wooing you into a new phone. The mobile carrier has announced they are having a 3-day “New Year, New Phone” sale for this weekend only, which starts Friday, January 6th. The prices of the various devices are certainly bonkers too. You’ll be able to [...]
Adding to the ever-growing list of knockoff devices found overseas, Nexian (an Indonesian mobile phone manufacturer) brings us the Android Magic A893 – a device that looks awfully similar to the iPhone, but which packs Android 2.2 Froyo and rings in at IDR 1,599,000 (about 5 USD). To get a better idea of the device’s [...]
EVO Design 4G owners, rejoice – HTC has just released the kernel source code for your device. This means that devs can grab the code, take it to the lab and start hacking away to make this device as lean and mean as possible. Overclocking, among other mods, is just one of the things that [...]

It’s as easy as heading over to the site and following the same instructions that unlock any other listed [...]
It seems like this is becoming a weekly habit, doesn’t it? Big Red 4G LTE devices across the nation are once again without data services (mine included). It appears that this just happened, so there’s no word from VZW as to when we can expect data services to be restored. We’ll keep you posted on [...]
Those of you who aren’t keen on using community-developed tools to unlock their HTC devices’ bootloaders have been graced with a great program by HTC.

The EVO View 4G is one such device, as it now joins its Wi-Fi only brother, the Flyer, in the world of open bootloaders. Also joining the mix [...]
It’s funny how even the prospect of Ice Cream Sandwich has the ability to triple a device’s desirability and that’s exactly the case with the Huawei MediaPad. The device was recently leaked from a Chinese website running an official build of Android 4.0.1, which doesn’t surprise us at all seeing the company officially released a [...]
With AT&T’s proposed T-Mobile merger dead in the water, it seems the company is looking towards new, less FCC offensive ways to spend their money. Enter Qualcomm who has just sold off their 700MHz spectrum to AT&T for use in its budding 4G LTE network. The deal has actually been approved in a 3-1 vote [...]

Last week we saw T-Mobile’s HTC Amaze 4G put a serious hurting on the iPhone 4S, but it seems that wasn’t enough to quiet the Apple fanboy down at the arcade. He must be a glutton for punishment to challenge the Samsung Galaxy S II after taking an 8MP camera smackdown. Who will win this [...]
While we’ve already seen a leaked version of TouchWiz running on top of ICS, a new leak shows us what HTC is doing with Android 4.0. I know you’re all anxious to see what it’s all about, so let’s just get that out of the way first: It’s worth noting that this is [...]

Youtube link for mobile viewing Bigger screen. Faster dual-core processor. And, of course, the speed of T-Mobile's 4G network. Those are but a few of the weapons available to the T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II on T-Mobile's 4G network. That means faster, well, everything. And with T-Mobile's two lines for .99 each, faster doesn't break [...]
By now you've heard a lot of scuttlebutt about the Ice Cream Sandwich battery bug, and how it's affected the Nexus S and the Galaxy Nexus. Or not. Either way, we've heard it, too. Since we happen to have several of each phones possibly affected, I decided to do a little independent research of my [...]
AT&T’s plans of world domination seem to have come to an end (at least temporarily) as today they issued a press release announcing that they are ending their bid to acquire T-Mobile from Deutsch Telekom. Facing stiff opposition from the US Department of Justice, other carriers (Sprint), and hordes of customers, the deal couldn’t be [...]

Following the example set by AT&T and T-Mobile’s Samsung Galaxy SII variants, Sprint’s Epic 4G Touch is set to get its own white counterpart, probably in early 2012. Pocket Now speculates that the Epic 4G Touch’s white version may be announced at CES. Personally, I’m hoping Sprint has a little more to talk about at [...]

Rumor has it that AT&T’s gearing up to offer the Samsung Galaxy Note early next year and, as you might expect, 4G LTE will be in tow. One thing we didn’t imagine, however, is the lack of Samsung’s dual-core Exynos processor. 1Instead there’ll apparently be a 1.5GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon processor inside. Apparently Exynos might not [...]
Not too long ago Michael was bummed that the Samsung Galaxy note hybrid tablet/smartphone wasn’t offered in the US. The tablet had crossed the FCC in the past, but as Michael pointed out that doesn’t always mean the tablet is headed to the States. Another new model of the Galaxy note has now been spied. [...]
For those of you who have been watering at the mouth over Samsung’s Galaxy Note (SGH-I717), we bring good tidings. As most already know, it’s headed to AT&T and will fully support the carrier’s 4G LTE bands. The device will still sport the whopping 5.3-inch display with 1280 x 800 res and much like the [...]
