New to Android or just having a hard time getting used to an HTC Sense device? Verizon doesn’t want you to be left clueless with what is at least for the moment their most powerful Android smartphone, the HTC Droid Incredible. Covering everything from your basic Google searching to personalizing your homescreens, if you still [...]

Even though some of our readers reported they’ve successfully been able to pre-order the white-backed HTC EVO 4G, Best Buy hadn’t come out with an official statement confirming as much. It’s official now, and there’s not much more to it: on July 11th, you can pick yourself up a white HTC EVO 4G. Same pricing [...]

Samsung’s doing some pretty big things for this Galaxy-centric event they’re holding next week Tuesday. We received yet another update on the event this morning revealing the event’s musical guests. B.O.B will be performing live to commemorate whatever special occasion they drag us to New York for. As we anxiously wait for the next eight [...]

When we first saw the commercial slides for Verizon’s latest Droid campaigns a few days ago, we knew they would be getting a head start on promoting these Android-powered behemoths. That head start kicks off today as Verizon’s uploaded an official teaser to their YouTube account. Just as the slides described, we’re going to be [...]

With the advent of increased NAND/internal storage in today’s Android phones such as the HTC Droid Incredible, it will ultimately be up to developers to design and develop their apps to be able to access the storage. Media player doubleTwist is one such app that – up until now – has yet to take advantage [...]

Barnes & Noble is announcing the launch of their Wi-Fi-enabled Nook offering that will give consumers a more cost efficient eReader compared to eReaders that are enabled with 3G Radios. You can grab it today for $150, but if 3G is important to you, then you’ll be pleased to know that its price has been [...]

Monday morning seems to never disappoint in bringing us a feel-good Android-related story. For those that are into the Android dolls and collectibles craze, then you might be extremely tempted by what’s being called the Android-Robo. Engineers Reo Matsumura and Hideyuki Takei are the two masterminds behind the hardware and software, respectively. The software (an [...]

Toshiba’s just announced their first netbook running the Android operating system – dubbed the Toshiba AC100 that we first saw in a very small and modest product listing not too long ago – and we’re a little more than highly impressed. It’s running Android 2.1, it has 512MB of DDR2 RAM, 8GB of NAND flash [...]

If there’s one thing this video tells us, it’s this: using a high-end Android device in direct sunlight simply sucks, no matter what display technology you’re using. That said, one older technology (TFT LCD) and a newer display technology (Super AMOLED) looks to suck less up against its predecessor (AMOLED) when they’re put side by [...]

Samsung’s ready to bring their latest superphone home as pricing and availability for the Samsung Galaxy S have finally been announced for South Korea. SKT will be launching the device (likely exclusively) on June 25th starting for free (up to 295,000 won, as contracts and plans would dictate). And just for good measure, here’s another [...]

In a video comparison that just screams “appropriate”, the Motorola Droid 2 goes one-on-one with the original Motorola Droid. Looking at the two devices side-by-side, one can conclude that these things are almost identical at first glance. The Droid 2 does away with those gold accents Motorola included on the original offering, and they also [...]

ShapeWriter’s sent a notice to all of their customers stating that the app will be pulled off of the Android Market on June 20th (that’s today). While the day has yet to fully conclude in most parts of the world, ShapeWriter appears to still be in the market at the time of this posting. User [...]

Following the news that a new build of Android 2.2 was floating around the Googleplex, we’ve finally gotten the OTA file in downloadable form. The file – which originally popped up on XDA (where most of these goodies tend to come from)  - is about 1.86MB in size and is designed to be flashed over [...]

It’s easy to assume that the Samsung Galaxy S Pro will be the same phone as the Galaxy S with the added flexibility of having a full QWERTY keyboard. Still, we’re ecstatic to take a peek at what may end up being the phone’s final spec sheet. The information was sent to Android Central by [...]

US Cellular’s updated us yet again through their Facebook page with their plans to launch the Samsung Acclaim. US Cellular customers will be happy to know they’ll be able to grab this thing starting July 9th, but pricing is still yet to be announced. The Samsung Acclaim has a 3.2-inch HVGA touchscreen, a slide-out QWERTY [...]

For all of you AT&T fans who were waiting for a device by HTC for the carrier, you should probably know that the HTC Aria is in stores today. The mid-range device – which was unveiled by AT&T shortly after a series of leaks – can be had for $129.99 after signing a two-year service [...]

It’s no secret that HTC’s latest devices are hardware-enabled to handle 802.11n WiFi, but Android has yet to support the standard up to this point. After Google teased us with what’s coming with Android 2.2 (codenamed Froyo), we learned that the new firmware would enable native software support for those wanting to use WiFi N [...]

I’m not sure if this is even newsworthy anymore, but let’s take a crack at it: Sprint has sold out of their online stock of the HTC EVO 4G again. When heading to Sprint’s online storefront for the device, they tell potential buyers to check back later as more are on their way. This time, [...]

Don’t color us surprised, but we’ve learned that the Motorola Droid X will be coming with a large amount of apps pre-installed and we’ve gotten first word of the full list. Along with all of the standard set of apps by Google, we can expect to see Blockbuster online, Swype, an FM Radio, a Motorola [...]

Brazilian mobile phone outlet Celular Cafe’s leaked out four new LG devices, and one of them happens to be running Android. The LG C710 is the phone in question and – judging by its spec sheet and appearance – it can be adequately described as an LG Ally without a slide-out QWERTY keyboard. It has [...]
