Verizon is once again tweaking their 3G data plans, and this time it looks like it is in preparation for upcoming as-of-yet unannounced 4G LTE data plans. The $15/150MB per month for smartphones is no longer on the menu, leaving the unlimited data for $29.99 a month as the only option. Meanwhile, for $10 per [...]

A new, minor update to Adobe’s Flash Player 10.1 for Android has hit the market. The new update brings Flash’s version number to 10.1.106.16, though a lack of change log or blog announcement from Adobe suggests this is another minor update providing fixes and tweaks here and there. Among other things this could include compatibility [...]

If you are like me and have been left scratching your head over the whereabouts of the HTC Merge once slated for Verizon, we may finally have an answer. Admittedly it wasn’t specced out to be the best VZW Android as of late, and while it’s keyboard looks awesome and the phone could surely hold [...]

A meeting went down over the weekend at Best Buy, and a big point of discussion was the impending launch of the Motorola Atrix 4G on AT&T. While little solid info came to light concerning the final release strategy for the new 4G HSPA+ handset, a few details were gleaned. The biggest of which is [...]

Cellular South wants to spread some Android love around in anticipation of the Valentine’s Day holiday, so they are knocking back the price on two of their HTC handsets powered by the Google OS. The HTC Desire is seeing a 50 percent reduction in price, while the HTC Wildfire is getting knocked back by a [...]

The battle over intellectual property between mobile manufacturers continues, this time with two Android powerhouses set to duke it out. Huawei has just announced that they’ve filed lawsuit against Motorola for IP Infringement. While it appears the lawsuit is not in the mobility or Android space, but rather in the wireless networking business which Motorola [...]

Google Cloud Print, a service first announced way back in April of last year, is rolling out to smartphones supporting HTML5 (that would be Android 2.1+ devices and as seen above on an iOS device) in US starting today and tomorrow. Google Cloud Print was brought out in beta form last month for those who [...]

It’s that time of year again: tax time. If the American government is asking you for more money it isn’t so great, but when the tables are turned and you are the one expecting a fat check it truly is a joyous season. Found out Uncle Sam owes you bookoo bucks and can’t wait for [...]

Jeff Dickerson, a moderator known as gobluejd on AndroidForums, is a former BlackBerry addict gone Android. So you are thinking of moving from a Blackberry to Android, huh?  Well it’s a scary journey, but once you do, hopefully you’ll never look back. As a former Blackberry addict myself I knew there would be some hurdles [...]

Motorola’s introduced a number of new or new versions of apps with their latest version(s?) of MOTOBLUR. One of them – their music app – has been pulled from either the Atrix, the Bionic, or the CLIQ 2 and is now available for download. Users will be able to enjoy ShoutCAST integration, song identification through [...]

A fun fact just came out of CEA’s director of research Shawn DuBravac’s office: there were more than 100 tablets on display at CES. I counted how many of those were Android, and came up with 46. The reason I believe there was even more than that is because I ran into a couple of [...]

Everyone’s launcher is moving right along, and this week it’s ADW’s turn. The latest upgrade – version 1.2.2 – brings the ability to customize your dock image, giving you the ability to throw together even better home screen customizations than before. Other changes tighten the experience up a bit more and fixes some bugs, but [...]

The Motorola Glam wasn’t the most hyped of devices out there, but it was popular enough for Motorola to consider making it a world phone. They’ve announced that the phone – whose model number is XT800 – will be getting dual-mode CDMA/GSM radios for use mostly anywhere in the world. “We have specially designed the [...]

The NOOKcolor has quickly gotten a reputation for being an easily hackable and modifiable eReader-turned-tablet. After custom ROMs, kernels, bluetooth hacks, and more, XDA has done it again – this time, overclocking the thing to 1.1GHz. (It had previously seen a 950MHz overclock.) Go ahead and try it for yourself and let us know how [...]

Nuance makes a number of popular speech translation and dictation apps such as Dragon Dictation and the company will soon allow OTHER developers to add speech-to-text capabilities into their own apps. The company will be releasing the Dragon Mobile SDK to developers in their mobile dev program which applies to both Android and iOS platforms. [...]

By the name, you might be inclined to think the Galaxy S Hoppin is a Galaxy S prepackaged with NBA or Basketball applications- afterall, March Madness is right around the corner. But the “Hoppin” referred to in this case isn’t about dunking a ball but instead streaming your media. The Samsung Galaxy S Hoppin will [...]

Over the weekend, a new trademark filing was uncovered. HTC has been toying around with the word “Sensation” – an extension of the word “Sense” that their phone UI is named across all platforms. There’s nothing to suggest what they might be using it for, but some are guessing it could be the name of [...]

Italy’s finally confirmed to be getting the Nexus S according to HDBlog.it. Costing 549 euros, the phone isn’t much different from the one released here in the states and I’m willing to guess it won’t be much different from the version that all regions will eventually carry. If you need a refresher, though, this thing [...]

Pardon my play on the post’s title: I could just really use a massage right now. But HDBlog.it did get their hands on the Sony Ericsson Xperia Arc for an extensive amount of time and previewed the thing in both Italian and English. Initial impressions from our Italian friends over there are that it’s a [...]

The Samsung Forte is a Galaxy S phone we expect is headed to MetroPCS. We’ve seen of it and heard of it already. But not in full motion. The video Engadget got their hands on today doesn’t reveal much – it justs shows an XtraNormal-made video playing on YouTube – but it’s the first we’ve [...]
