Nexus One Radio Ruined by Applications ?

Wednesday, March 10th, 2010

Is your radio broken? The HTC/Google Nexus One is an awesome phone, but it sounds like everyone is still having major radio issues. I know I frequently have issue's when I'm driving through a certain spot on my way home from work. I'll frequently drop calls and when I look at my phone, there will be NO data connection what-so-ever. What is the problem and why is it taking so long for the team of HTC, Google and T-Mobile to work out a solution? At least they are all admitting that there is a problem and they are working on a solution. We've ...

Rumor: T-Mobile US training employees on HTC Desire?

Wednesday, March 10th, 2010

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 ...

Tuesday, March 9th, 2010

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.

Rumor: Verizon training employees on Nexus One?

Tuesday, March 9th, 2010

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 ...

Android becomes sentient; tells you to go out more, watch less porn

Saturday, March 6th, 2010

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 ...

Google Jumps In To Defend HTC and Android

Wednesday, March 3rd, 2010

This is what most of us have been waiting for, wondering when it was going to happen, asking ourselves "What does Google think about this lawsuit?". Well Endgadget received a statement from a a Google spokesperson saying: "We are not a party to this lawsuit. However, we stand behind our Android operating system and the partners who have helped us to develop it." What exactly does this mean for HTC in the fight against Apples outrageous lawsuit? Will Google be lending any help in HTCs legal defense, or maybe helping in some other way? It's hard to tell but whenever this trial ...

Tuesday, March 2nd, 2010

This morning news came up all over the internet about Apple suing HTC over 20 or so patents that according to Apple, were patents that HTC stole. After reading a few stories that stated it was unsure what patents were being brought up by Apple, I did a bit of research and found out which patent was which. Not all twenty were included in the statement I read, but for the ones that are there I found info on. It's a long read, but if you're interested in what Apple feels that they should sue HTC over, give it a ...

Flash 10.1 to be supported on select devices

Sunday, February 28th, 2010

Not all current generation phones will be able to use Flash 10.1 for Android once it is released in the next few months, but we had a suspicion that would be the case. Though Flash has been seen working as a prototype on the G1 and had some support on the Hero, an Adobe forums post reveals that not all Android phone models will be supported. In response to a question about Adobe’s roadmap, an Adobe employee stated that Flash would begin appearing on Android phones “mid-year.” That employee also dropped this bombshell: “The HTC Hero will not be supported [because] it does not have ...

Ta da! It’s Magic!

Friday, February 26th, 2010

Nexus One 3G Connection Appears to be a Hardware Design Flaw

Sunday, February 14th, 2010

The guys over at Engadget posted a video a few days ago that shows a Nexus One dropping it 3G connection depending on how you hold the phone. It sure appears like the Nexus One has some form of hardware design issue that needs to be addressed ASAP by HTC / Google. I think T-Mobile can be let off the hook for this one if the video has any validity to it. So now what happens to a phone that has a severe hardware design issue and all those people who have invalidated their phone warranty by unlocking the boot loader? I ...

Review: T-Mobile Fender MyTouch

Saturday, February 13th, 2010

AndroidCentral has gotten their hands on T-Mobiles second newest phone, the limited edition MyTouch Fender. This phone has been very popular considering it just recently sold out. One of the biggest Android marketing pushes we've seen this side of the Motorola Droid has been from T-Mobile and the myTouch 3G line. And it's a testament to the popularity of the device that we now have a Fender Limited Edition (see our video hands-on), modeled after the famed guitars. And this has truly been a limited edition, as it's already sold out. You can read the rest of the review over at http://www.androidcentral.com/review-mytouch-3g-fender-limited-edition [via ...
