Oooh, this is heating up! After an investors’ call yesterday where CEO Steve Jobs felt it necessary for him to personally field questions (with the occasion being this is Apple’s first $20 billion quarter), we learned he said some nice things and some not so nice things about Android and Google as a whole. Andy [...]

After all of the successes developer Rovio’s been enjoying after their launch of Angry Birds in the Android market, other developers are looking to emulate that. The folks behind Cut the Rope – Zeptolab – have committed to creating an Android version says Dutch site AndroidPlanet, but they still have yet to give an exact [...]

Well jeez, leaked myTouch ROM, you’re just letting everything go, aren’t you? Yesterday, we were able to get a sideways glimpse (literally) of a video that comes with the device, and now the Yahoo Messenger app with video chat in tow has made its way to surface. Reports from XDA – where this ROM originally [...]

It seems our friends at Android Central have been able to download the newly-leaked MyTouch HD ROM and rip the promo video from it. They’ve uploaded it to YouTube, and while it’s nothing out of the ordinary compared to other mobile phone promos, it’s still a nice, quick watch between today’s juicy stories. Give that [...]

Mark this day on your calendar, folks, because we thought it’d be centuries before we heard Steve Jobs acknowledge that the competition is right up there with him. In an investors conference call going on right now, he reportedly let out the following comment regarding certain direct competitors: “right now it’s a battle for developers [...]

Yea, it’s that Verizon rumor again. (No, not the Big Red-compatible iPhone.) We’re talking about Verizon’s apparent plans to introduce tiered data plans in a trend that seems to be picking up a lot of steam here in America. Even if Verizon insists on denying allegations that they’ll be bringing out tiered data options in [...]

We’re normally treated to confirmation of existence of any device through official press releases, Twitter and Facebook statements, or email conversations, but Verizon’s decided to confirm the Global edition of the Droid 2 in a different way: over the phone. If you call their support line and get stuck on hold, you might hear a [...]

We knew it wouldn’t take long. We just reported about AT&T bringing a U-verse app  out for Android, but much to a lot of U-verse customers’ dismay, it is only “officially” available for AT&T customers. Thankfully, the XDA scene is one known to work fast and they’ve already pulled out the .APK and some have [...]

Sprint’s committing to dates for launches of their 4G networks in key areas of the country, today. We know they’ve been testing 4G in several metropolitan areas in California and New York, but we couldn’t peg any sort of a date for the service to go live. Today, Reuters reports that Sprint will be launching [...]

People may have thought Barnes and Noble would be close to finished supporting their Android-based eReader once they come out with a full-fledged Android app, but that isn’t the case at all. The good folks over at their blog have updated everyone on their developments: 1.5 is definitely coming. Some of the things you can [...]

Google’s Voice application has just been updated to version 0.4.2.8 and brings with it the ability to search your voicemail transcripts and text messages.

AT&T’s finally let out their U-verse app for Android users, according to a press release issued by the carrier today. On all of their Android devices, you’ll be able to set your recording schedule  and view the slate of shows coming up from anywhere in the world as long as you have the app installed. [...]

Since Android development has (admittedly) been a bit slow on the business features side of things, we’re seeing more and more partners implement their own solutions to help keep enterprise money rolling through the Android wagon. Motorola and Verizon have already taken that first step with the Motorola DROID PRO, but now Verizon’s adding more [...]

Carphone Warehouse – the UK-based retailer that’s been gaining popularity over recent months – has priced their Samsung Galaxy Tab for preorder. I think you’ll like this (at least compared to other outlets): you’ll be able to grab it through them outright for just £530 without having to deal with any rebate mess. You can [...]

It’s become quite the trend with unreleased phones lately, so we don’t expect anything less: the T-Mobile MyTouch 4G’s ROM has been leaked. No word on if this is the final firmware being shipped with the phone, but us Android-loving folks normally don’t care about that stuff. We care about what can be found hidden [...]

We’ve heard countless reports that it’s out there. We know it’s still in development and we know some Googlers have it loaded onto their Nexus Ones. I’m talking about the Android Gingerbread update, of course, and we can finally bring you the first details regarding the next iteration courtesy of our trusted source close to [...]

Unsocial has just launched along with it’s free mobile apps for Android and iPhone, but before you go off saying “why, oh why, do we need another social network?” you should probably know that as the name implies, Unsocial isn’t so much about the socializing as it is about taking advantage of those connections that [...]

Over the weekend a recall order was placed on WalMart’s remaining Motorola Droid 2 stock. All remaining units are to be shipped back to the distributor Brightstar’s warehouse by Tuesday, October 26th.

The line of Android handsets that most recently saw the Sharp IS03 is about to get three new family members on KDDI in Japan. Toshiba, Sharp, and Pantech are each contributing one Android device with the same branding for the carrier, all of which come with built-in 1-Seg TV tuners. Toshiba gives us the REGZA [...]

If you thought one million downloads in Angry Bird’s first day of release was an impressive figure, wait until you hear the latest report from Rovio. The company has tweeted that they have just doubled that figure and reached an astonishing two million downloads of the game over the weekend. Judging by the number I [...]
