Nothing better than having some surprise donuts with my late morning coffee. The sweet, sweet round deep fried sugar treats with a couple of sprinkles, or a look at what Android OS 2.0 will have in store for us; either will do. And the latter is what we got. RootMaster cyanogen uncovered the latest release [...]

We told you so. For a long time we’ve been talking about Android’s eventual implementation in devices well beyond phones and computers. We’ve joked about an Android Car but agree with the main concept and in actuality, its already in the works. We’ve talked about household information centers running Android and those are in the [...]

A few months ago everyone was talking about how Palm and Sprint both had all of their eggs in the Pre basket. While the American powerhouse carriers Verizon and AT&T played wait and see and T-Mobile carried the Android torch, Sprint seemed stuck in between. At first the reasons seemed harsh – CEO Dan Hesse [...]

Today, Motorola issued a Press Release proclaiming their Android aspirations are in full swing, titling the publication “Motorola Opens Doors for Accelerated Development on Android”. That is exactly the tone of voice we like to hear, Moto. The announcement of new Android development resources through their Motorola Development Program – MOTODEV – hopes to foster [...]

Just found this HTC Hero promotional video on YouTube that I thought might interest some folks. Our own HTC Hero Review includes an hour (add it up) of video… for most people that is probably TOO much so perhaps looking at these HTC Hero quickies is more your style. Meet the HTC Hero – Hardware [...]

It was only yesterday we heard about the low-end HTC Click Android Phone and we filed it firmly in the rumor bin. But a new image of the phone has popped up that looks more promotionally convincing and could suggest the HTC Click is closer to launch than we might think: And perhaps even more [...]

Verizon Wireless is rumored to be launching an Android Phone later this year, presumably the Motorola Morrison during the holiday season. A year ago I said Verizon would have an Android phone… and they will. All these years, Verizon has been holding back their customers from access to readily available features and capabilities in the [...]

We’ve been using the HTC Hero for several days now and its time to put it through the Phandroid gauntlet to determine if it is truly the best Android Phone out there… or maybe even the best mobile phone on the planet. For starters, I think anyone picking this phone up for the first time [...]

In our T-Mobile myTouch 3G review we explained that T-Mobile planned on suggesting different groupings of applications to customers based on their interests and somehow prepacking them on the phone. Now, not only do we know the method of distribution, but we have a direct link to the AppPack so we can download it ourselves! [...]

A couple days ago we posted an HTC Hero unboxing and I (mistakenly) mentioned that I wouldn’t be able to use it on the T-Mobile USA bands since my version was made for the UK. I received a number of questions about what is/isn’t possible and how fast it would run on T-Mobile USA if [...]

To say that HTC has been a beacon of hope for the Android platform would likely be an understatement. As the platforms first true adopter (in terms of manufacturing), HTC has already come to market with a handful of Android Phones while all top competitors besides Samsung have yet to launch a single offering. HTC [...]

A lot of you have visited Get Your Droid On for all of your Android-root needs. The site is run by our very own Noonehereyet, a moderator on Android Forums. He’s dedicated a lot of his hours to keeping a list of every major rooted build up to date; as well as hosting them for [...]

Just received a tip from, what I assume to be, one of the writers from PointGPhone, regarding a few pictures of HTC’s next Android based phone. Just an initial review leads one to speculate that this will be HTC’s first entry into the entry-level-Android-Market. Take a look at the pictures, and draw your own conclusions: [...]

Sony Ericsson hasn’t said anything yet but if the pre-order page on Expansys isn’t an evil gag, it appears the Sony Ericsson Xperia X3 will be the first Sony Ericsson Android Phone! While admitting its status is “unannounced”, Expansys doesn’t seem to have a problem announcing all of the specs and details of the device. [...]

We first heard of the Motorola Morrison when it leaked on T-Mobile’s 2009 Android Time Chart. Soon after we saw the first Motorola Morrison picture. But now, thanks to an anonymous phandroid tipster, we’re seeing the clearest picture of the Motorola Morrison to date: (click to enlarge) Apparently a Moto employee is already walking around [...]

This weekend my G1 told me it was update time… only 884 kB so this should be quick, easy and painless! The only thing worse than wasting 10 minutes aimlessly watching a stupid bar slowly move across a screen is wasting 10 minutes aimlessly watching someone else watch the stupid bar go across the screen. [...]

This isn’t your typical unboxing video… for one because it isn’t your typical phone but mostly because the box is a temporary and anonymously white encasing for the mighty HTC Hero. By the time this hits shelves it will come in a much prettier packaging and the user guide/manual and standard documents will surely be [...]

Sometimes doing a little digging can result in a lot of good – in this case it appears the first LG Android Phone has been uncovered from LG’s own website! A quick peek at a User Agent Profile XML URL (found here) for the LG GW620 indeed shows that a QWERTY device with a 320×480 [...]

Google released an update for Android a few days ago, and we’ve been seeing a lot of e-mails regarding its purpose. As far as we can tell, it’s just for security updates and has no new features that you will see. If you guys have any questions or concerns feel free to zip on over [...]

We love Google Voice. When it was in beta we posted a Google Voice Review and gave away 50 early access invitations to the service. Google has since sent a round of public invitations to a load of people who signed up for service notification info – go ahead and sign up for an invite! [...]
