[Update]: Someone’s made a Firefox version of the plugin you’ll need on the browser side of things. You’ll need to grab that from here. You’ll use the same APK as before, though. If you were one of the lucky users to receive Android 2.2 to your Nexus One over the air (or if you were [...]

Another day, another version of Android. With new versions comes another round of waiting and speculation in regards to when most Android users will be seeing the latest that Google has to offer. The first rumor comes by way of an XDA member who contacted HTC with frustrations about not having enough space to install [...]

After the exciting Google I/O keynote last Thursday, we learned two things. Firstly, Vic Gundotra is a great speaker and needs to be recognized as the “face” of Google. Secondly, a lot of heads were turned to Android and people questioned whether or not Apple was now the one playing catch-up. Being Android fans, I [...]

[Update]: There’s been some clarification on what happened with the file (which is being considered “unofficial” and shouldn’t have even been downloadable in the first place) that was a supposed Android 2.2 update. QuietlyCoding – whose findings you can read here – spoke with Google to determine that even though the update name for Froyo [...]

Brandon Miniman from PocketNow.com brought us one of the more interesting comparisons between a Froyo-enabled Nexus One and some other competing phones. He compared the Nexus One’s browser performance to both the iPhone’s and the HTC HD2′s stock browsers (stock browser on newer HTC Sense-enabled WinMo devices is Opera Mobile, and iPhone’s is Safari Mobile). [...]

Everyone’s been wondering if there is any real difference between Adobe’s Flash Mobile 10.1 and Flash Lite besides how different sites identify the plugins. Engadget‘s been kind enough to demonstrate the performance of both technologies side-by-side in a showdown video. Taking the Nexus One and the HTC Desire – which are both similarly specced – [...]

Pioneer Computers Australia has given us the skinny on their new DreamBook ePad 7 tablet device with an official specification list and an initial price point. This thing has a 7-inch screen which they’re saying is a high-sensitive touch screen (I’m thinking “capacitive”) with a resolution of 800×480. It uses a VA WM8505+ processor with [...]

After Google surprised us with an earlier-than-expected roll-out of the official Froyo update for the Nexus One, we were wondering what device would be next in line to receive the upgrade to Android 2.2. For good reason, most people are speculating that it’ll be the Motorola Droid, and Motorola has come out to say that [...]

When we heard that 5,000-plus developers would be getting a free HTC EVO 4G at the Google I/O conference, I couldn’t help but anticipate that at least one of those crafty guys would use this opportunity to do some early hacking into the phone ahead of its launch. For those anticipating root for the EVO [...]

First off 2.2 only! Sorry! So now you have the delicious creamy taste of Froyo with all the extras including Flash 10.1 beta support. You go to watch Hulu (US only) only to find difficulty watching anything. But Ryan Gardner has shown us the light! Taken from Absolutelyandroid.com 1) Open your Browser and type ” [...]

It really bugs me sometimes knowing that I can’t clear the search history in the Android Market. Well luckily I came across this free app called “HistoryEraser” by DUMAPIC (who is also the Dev of OperaBridge) which does just that – deletes the Android market history – and without the need for root. Usually – [...]

We all know how popular the Motorola Droid is and now thanks to the internet yet again, more information has possibly been leaked out about the Motorola Shadow we heard of last month! How do you fancy a Motorola Droid style handset – possibly minus the QWERTY keyboard – but the specs nudged up to [...]

Just FYI… we’re podcasting so head over to the Phandroid BlogTalkRadio page or listen below!

A special press-only Q&A session with the Android Leadership Team took place at Google IO that gave us inside access to the thoughts and ideas of those making the important decisions when it comes to Android. While I live-blogged the event a few days ago, I also promised video – so here it is: The [...]

As we just found out, Nexus Ones are now slowly being graced with Android 2.2 Froyo in a roll out of the new OS. N1 owners are sure to get it pretty soon, but if pretty soon isn’t soon enough, you can now perform a manual update thanks to some sly sleuths at #android on [...]

When Google said Nexus One users should expect an update for Android 2.2 within the coming weeks, we didn’t think they’d get started so soon. MG Siegler from TechCrunch is reporting that his phone was pinged late last night to download an update OTA. After receiving his late night snack, Siegler wondered if anyone else [...]

In all of the excitement going on with Google I/O yesterday, we forgot to mention that the  LG Ally would be available in Verizon stores. Well, turns out we actually didn’t miss much because at least some of those who headed out to pick up the new Android handset from LG were met with disappointment. [...]

Those Google I/O guys just don’t know when to quit. After dropping the Froyo bomb on the smartphone community at the events over the previous two days, the burning question remained: when would Android 2.2 find its way via OTA to any of the current Android handsets? If you happened to check the official Google [...]

In a move all too similar to Verizon around the release of the Motorola Droid, AT&T will be upping the early termination fee for its smartphone devices effective June 1st. The new fee will be $325, with $10 knocked off for each month you manage to stay in-contract. Pundits are already questioning whether the move [...]

An iPhone and Blackberry staple with over 1.3 million downloads, Score Mobile has come to the Android Market for all of you sports scores, stats, and news needs. A few good sports and score tracking offerings have made their way to the market — I’ve gone so far as to call SportsTap one of my [...]
