I love accessories. They tell oh so little, yet oh so much at the same time. This time, a manufacturer named QUBITS has made public their case for the HTC Kingdom on Amazon. The case doesn’t tell much aside from the obvious holes for the usual camera, headphone jack and speaker grill suspects, but it [...]

Just grabbed this little sucker from AndroidForums.com. Geekaphone.com has a speed test that users can run and it ranks devices on a leaderboard. Looking at the fastest phones on Verizon, one forum poster was surprised to see the Samsung Function. Unforunately, we don’t know if this can be trusted. We’re not sure where Geekaphone pulls [...]

We’re glad to see Samsung’s small (but large, relatively speaking) investment into the development community has paid off – nightlies are coming to the Samsung Galaxy S II! If you don’t remember, Samsung sent the team behind CyanogenMod four Galaxy S II devices for one purpose – getting CM7 booted up on that thing and [...]

While this phone’s not set to come out until July 20th, some folks on Reddit have reported being able to waltz into the big yellow ticket store and buy the Motorola TRIUMPH early. It’ll run you $300, but that’s a great price for a device with a 1GHz processor and stock Android. See if you [...]

Two cores down, eight to go. Last week we gave away the Motorola Droid X2 as part of one of our biggest contests ever and today we’re continuing the trend by offering up another top Android device to one lucky Phandroid reader. How can you win and what device are we giving away? Read on! [...]

If you like Google’s new style and are looking for an avatar to match it, a user by the name of Alankrut on XDA has created icon templates with the four-colored strip and the g+ logo. Simply replace the main image with one of you own and you’re off. I should note that these are [...]

  The Inquirer has heard it from LG that the Optimus 3D in the UK won’t get its Gingerbread upgrade in October. The phone launched with Froyo even though thelatest major revision of Android for phones has been out for quite a while now. You can imagine our disappointment when hearing that we won’t be [...]

Have you checked HTC’s Facebook page out lately? Tons of users are making it their duty to let HTC know that they’re violating GPL requirements by not releasing source code for new devices and updates. Here is the message being tossed HTC’s way every five minutes: Please release the kernel source for the EVO 3D, [...]

Two very interesting Google+ stories today. First off: don’t try to post a sidebar ad on Facebook that trolls viewers for Google+ followers – Facebook will ban them and suspend your account. It’s a competing product and they probably hold the right to suspend an account and ban an ad for any reason they want [...]

Archos’ G9 tablets are a bit more pricier than initially expected but are still the most reasonably tablets in the market for the kind of power they provide. Archos has put up preorder details and have priced each tablet at 3 different levels. For the G9 101 (10 inches), you can get a 1GHz-clocked 8GB [...]

$200 too rich for your blood to buy the newly-launched Motorola DROI D3? If you were waiting on a good deal to get this thing, Amazon may have the price you’re more comfortable with. They have the Motorola DROID 3 for $70 after signing a new two-year agreement if you’re a new customer to Verizon. [...]

That bootloader-unlocking Gingerbread upgrade for the ATRIX 4G is well on its way, folks, as Motorola has opened up shop for soak testing. 1,000 applications have been selected to try the upgrade out to ensure there are no problems for a full upgrade shortly after. History tells us that a wide-spread OTA rollout is a [...]

We’ve known for a bit that Verizon is bringing a slider to their network by Samsung and new details and photos of it have arrived. Firstly, it’s said to be very similar to the Samsung Epic 4G – keyboard, size, internals and all. You’ll get 2GB of internal storage, 512MB of RAM, a 1GHz processor, [...]

IFA’s coming up and the rumors are starting to flow. The first of many involves Samsung who is said to be bringing us a large phone/tablet hybrid called the Samsung Galaxy Q. It’ll apparently be 5.3 inches in size and have a Super AMOLED display. We can’t imagine Samsung wouldn’t throw a dual-core processor inside [...]

A quick and small update to Dropbox is waiting for you in the Android market today. It adds two features that many have been asking for – the ability to delete folders from the device and thumbnails for photos. Both of these changes were highly sought-after and although they may seem small, they will make [...]

If you happen to be in the market for a phone with a Facebook button, AT&T wants you to know that their HTC Status is now available. It’s a portrait QWERTY that has HTC Sense (for messengers) and a 2.8 inch portrait-oriented touchscreen. Inside is an 800MHz scorpion processor, 512MB of RAM and comes with [...]

Good. Gawd. And not right after I posted my review on how content I was with the Evo 3D, this shows up in my inbox. Thanks to TIMN, what you have in front of you are some freshly leaked, blurry cam pics of the Samsung Within. This is the eagerly anticipated Samsung Galaxy S II [...]

What time is it? It’s time for Apps of the Day. We once again dove headfirst into the Android Market and came out on the other side with some of its latest and greatest apps. Today we train our brains, read up on back issues of a wide selection of Magazines offered through Zinio, and [...]

While the attention in recent weeks has mostly been focused on Apple’s suit against Samsung, the International Trade Commission has been overseeing a separate patent infringement case involving HTC. The ITC has just handed down their ruling, and of the ten patents in question HTC was found guilty of infringing upon two. Two out of ten [...]

LG is hosting an event to promote the release of the LG Thrill 4G — the AT&T-bound version of the Optimus 3D — but it won’t be your typical launch party. The private event will feature a performance by Jane’s Addiction, and some of those in attendance will be tasked with capturing footage of the [...]
