It's really confusing me now. First we heard that the HTC Desire will hit AT&T in May/June period, and now, according to Androincia, a manager at a T-Mobile USA store was being trained on several phones that are coming to the carrier this year, and the HTC Desire is on the list. They also said that they contact other T-Mobile employees and they said that their manager's are off for training. Does this mean the HTC Desire will hit T-Mobile soon? It's a rumor but i can see the truth in it. The Desire is almost similar to the Nexus One but ...

I guess there is always a first for everything. Have you ever seen a manufacturer do it's own unboxing video? Sony Ericsson decided to be the first. We were not lucky enough to be able do the unboxing of the one of the most anticipated Android smartphone, the one and only, Sony Ericsson Xperia X10. Sony Ericsson didn't give anyone a chance to do the unboxing. Instead they decided to do it themselves. Sony Ericsson doesn’t include much information. What's inside the box. Let me tell you: XPERIA X10 phone (white or black) USB cable & charger Stereo headset Battery Documentation That's all we know folks. But still ...
The HTC Legend is one of the best looking android smartphone's available in the market. The HTC Legend is really a legendary phone and is also known as the successor to the HTC Hero . We've heard lot about this phone and after the launch, we saw the HTC Legend on eXpansys with retail price and release date. Then we heard that the HTC Legend would be coming to Sprint too. Then Vodafone UK announced the price for the HTC Legend and an expected release for Vodafone UK in April. Now, the latest rumor is that the Legend is hitting the ...
I'm not sure if this is good news or bad news. You'll have to make that decision. I'm just sharing it you. According to a reliable source at Berryscoop, the HTC Incredible will be replacing the HTC Droid Eris at Verizon Wireless. The Droid Eris will be discontinued from April 1st and the HTC Incredible will be released on Verizon Wireless on the same day. Berryscoop also said that Verizon is viewing the Incredible as their version of the Nexus One. Are you kidding me? It's not confirm yet so don't take it seriously. Stay tuned for more information as we find out the ...
In the beginning HTC created the Nexus One, then came the Supersonic. Back in January we were leaked the specs of the HTC Supersonic, an amazingly chic handset with the hottest specs since the Nexus One. With a 4.3" display and WiMax (4G) connectivity, the Supersonic is shaping up to be the next big thing in the world of Android. In February, Sprint announced that they will launch a WiMax handset this summer and really got the wheels turning. And now the first leaked video of the HTC Supersonic hits the web. Showcased by a mysterious gloved hand, the Supersonic looks like everything ...
We know the Nexus One is coming to Verizon Wireless but the question is when? A couple weeks ago, we heard rumors and saw evidence that seemed to support the FCC approving a CDMA version of Nexus One that would be supported by VZW. And last week, Neowin reported that Verizon will launch the Nexus One during the International CTIA wireless show in the US on March 23rd. A few days ago, BGR reported they received some rumor-filled emails from various customers and some rather knowledgeable reps. The emails state that Verizon has begun training some of its employees on an EV-DO ...
Oh AT&T, you're like that passive-aggressive friend that claims to be your buddy, but tells everyone what a loser you are behind your back. You're about as useful as an ice cube in a blizzard. You chose what is being called the worst Android phone in the U.S., all the while proclaiming it's revolutionary design. I suppose this is technically true, though as we all know, newer isn't always better. Flashy on the outside, Android 1.5 on the inside. Next you strip out Google search, only to replace it with an engine nobody uses. This isn't entirely true, I'm sure plenty of ...
Android has a problem with women, a topic that has been talked about at great length. In a nutshell; the phones are fine, it's marketing that's the problem. Angel Webster over at Android Guys offers a differing opinion, stating the devices need to be changed to attract more female buyers: I feel like I am using a man's phone. Call me picky, but I don't like that it only comes in "Winter White" and "Titanium". The phone is somewhat bulky and rather heavy. As thick as this phone is, I would expect more raised buttons or something easier for me ...
T-Mobile is preparing to push a minor Android update (DMD64) to G1 and MT3G users in the near future (March 15th, according to the official sources).

The Android 1.6 DMD64 OTA (this OTA is not Android 2.0 Eclair) is being sent to G1 customers only and is not being sent to other Android devices at this time. myTouch 3G users have already received this update and myTouch 3G LE, as well as myTouch ...
AT&T has launched the Motorola Backflip, it's first Android device, which is running Motorola Blur on top of Android 1.5. You can get the device, which has Google stripped out, a dated OS, and a weird form factor. As you can tell this really excites me. It's available via the AT&T product page where there is only one mention that the phone is running Android, which is at the bottom of the page. This being there first Android phone I would have expected them to be pushing Android a lot stronger and have more details about Android, however if I was launching ...

Okay, so Android hasn't advanced that much, but Tim Heath and Ryan Hickman, hobbyists from California, are working to let Android out of your pocket and interact with the world--without you. The bot they recently finished building — Truckbot — is still relatively simple. It’s got an HTC G1 phone for a brain, riding on top of a chassis with some wheels and treads. They could have purchased the pricey $175 Oomlout kit, which includes wheels, motors and an Arduino-based brain. Hickman and Heath opted for making their own chassis. Here’s a full list of parts they used: $16 Bare bones Arduino $3 Micro ...
Android devices are arriving fast and furious all over the world and the guys over at SlashGear have released a photo and video unboxing of the new HTC Legend. The HTC Legend is due out in Europe sometime in the next month. The successor to the HTC Hero is a slimmer and much sleeker looking device and sports Android 2.1 and the Sense UI from the get go. Head over to SlashGear for the full scoop. Source: SlashGear
Live in Dallas, Miami, Chicago, Los Angeles, or Philadelphia? Good news! You're going to be a pilot city for T-Mo. Starting March 14, the only device to offer the blazing speeds of home broadband on the go will be the webConnect Rocket. Admittedly, this is a little underwhelming, though the bright side is once the testing is complete, HPSA+ will start coming to other cities. This will be even better news if T-Mobile decides to pick up the Huawei U8800, a device that rocks an Android 2.1 operating system and integrates HSPA+ capabilities to support downlink speeds of up to 14 Mbps. ...
While the selection in the UK is already slim pickings for you Android lovers, it now appears that Vodafone UK had discontinued the HTC Magic due stock level issues. The other bad news news is that they don't see a sequel like the MyTouch 1.2 that has been launched here in the USA. At least there is some good news on the horizon with the soon to be released Nexus One and the X10. But not a great move on Vodafone's part while everyone is kept in limbo. Source: AndroidCommunity
Aside from a brief press release by Archos last year, this tablet phone gave us quite a tease with it's specs: it was to pack a slimmer 4.3-inch touchscreen than the internet tablets, with a sharper 854×480 resolution, HSDPA, a 1GHz Arm processor, 3.5g enabled, and a thin, 10mm shell. It skipped out on the ball known as CES, and CEO Henri Crohas issued a caveat; that the device would never make it to market without the support of “two senior operators.” Well it seems this event has come to pass. The initial was expected launch in the first ...
The guys over at AndroidCentral got their hands on the new Android from Motorola and here's their initial thoughts: The Motorola Devour (running Android 1.6 with Motoblur on Verizon) made its here this morning, and we've had a couple minutes to give it the what-for. Despite playing second fiddle to the Motorola Droid at least as far as specs are concerned -- smaller screen, less powerful processor, etc. -- it's a very well-crafted smartphone. The Devour has a Sidekick-esqe form factor. Instead of the keyboard sliding out, the screen slides up to expose four rows on which to type. Having letters on either ...
Oh Hello beautiful! Guys remember the HTC Incredible. The first shot of the smartphone was leaked a month ago. Then after a time, we saw the Incredible crawling in Verizon inventory. Then the video shows up in which the Incredible was running on Verizon. Now the Incredible shows up again, not the Incredible Hulk, the HTC Incredible. These are the latest shots of the smartphone appearing on Twitter. I really like the smartphone, its beautiful, sexy and stylish. I still believe that the Incredible will hit Verizon soon. Stay tuned to AndroidSPIN for more information. Here's 3 more photos for you to ...
Thanks to tipsters Trevin and TheDudesAndroid, it has come to our attention that XDA user RiverRunner, an unknown HTC worker from China has released a Droid Eris dump that's running the latest version of Android. A couple users have thrown together a makeshift ROM from the dump image. As always it looks like normal Sense with the latest features, such as the pinch-to-zoom homescreen feature. Below are some photos courtesy of XDA user ataranine. And now for a Rosie-less pic: Click here for the download link [via XDA-Developers]
