T-Mobile subscribers with the HTC Sensation 4G were ecstatic to learn that the carrier had begun pushing the handset’s upgrade to Android 4.0, but the process hasn’t been smooth for all. Not only does the update come with a change to T-Mobile’s mobile hotspot policy (you have to pay to play, now), but some users [...]

Chinese site ePrice uncovered a nifty trick involving the HTC One X’s already stellar camera. Using a Bluetooth headset, the phone’s shutter can be triggered remotely for hands-free photo capture. The video demonstrating the capability shows three different headsets performing the task, each using a not-so-intuitive button combo to snap off photos. The trick likely works [...]

Buyer beware. Seeing as how the HTC One X is a hot ticket item, and sales for the device will no doubt go up now that the Galaxy S3 has been demystified, a lot of Android users are looking towards the X for their next smartphone purchase. HTC was kind enough to offer the One X [...]

If you were some of the many who helped Marvel/Disney’s The Avengers rack up $200 million at the box office this past weekend, you’ve no doubt been bit by the super hero bug (or should I say — radio active spider?). Well, DeviantArt member Bloop might be able to scratch that itch with his super [...]

Remember those amazing looking minimal icons I showed you last night? A few of you loved what my buddy Mitch (yeah, we hang out) came up with. The only real downside was the limited amount of icons he provided. Well, Mitch has just added around 84 all new icons to his icon portfolio, covering most [...]

Sometimes shiny, glitzy, 3D icons just don’t cut it when you’re looking for something a little more… minimal. That’s exactly how Mitch S. felt, and after searching to no avail for something a little less glossy, he decided to take matters into his own hands. creating these amazing flat, minimal looking icons to decorate his [...]

Google Drive has just been released and the best thing about it is its prices. Surely, services like Dropbox and Box.net will have some problems competing. But one thing is for certain, many of us will be quickly purchasing some extra cloud storage for our Google Drive. And if you are like me and want [...]

As an Android nerd and 2-year Sprint customer, one of the biggest cons I’ve found from being with a CDMA carrier is the sometimes painful process of swapping or purchasing used devices. Aside from the initial device I receive when signing up for a 2-year agreement, my devices are almost always obtained through face-to-face meetings [...]

Nobody knows exactly why it happened, but when Samsung decided to release their official Galaxy Nexus car dock here in the states, they did so minus the 3-pin connectors that not only send the phone into car mode, but charge the device as well. Well, a handy-man over on XDA decided to take matters into [...]

Truth be known, I’ve always had a thing for the Sony’s line of devices. Everything from the design, to their Timescape UI, I’ve been jocking for quite awhile now. Cruisin’ the XDA Forums today, I noticed that someone was actually able to extract a new version of Sony’s live wallpaper, dubbed Cosmic Flow, from the [...]

As a self-proclaimed gaming addict, one of the problems I’ve noticed throughout the years is that I often don’t have the time I once had back in my high school days, to just sit down and do some serious console gaming. This has left me with a surplus of great titles dating all the way [...]

While on Facebook today, I noticed a few of my friends and family who didn’t get the memo that the Android Market had now officially been renamed Google Play and mistakenly assumed they deleted the app from their phone altogether. Needless to say, they were in a bit of distress over the miscommunication. This actually [...]

I know it shouldn’t bother me this much — but it does. As a creature of habit, I fear change. I believe that if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it. That being said, I hate the Google Play update. I want the old name back. I want the old icon back. Since letters signed in [...]

The Google Play Store is rolling out to Android devices as we speak, erasing any memory of a destination once known as the Android Market. The apps, games, movies, and music all stay the same, but we’re now dealing with a new name and slightly new look (love it or hate it). If your getting [...]

If there was ever any doubt that the Motorola RAZR and the new all new and improved RAZR MAXX possibly weren’t the same phone, that has been laid to rest with this screenshot. As you can plainly see, both devices are running the exact same build, kernel — even the model number is the same. [...]

Looks like Google wrapped up a bonus treat for ASUS Transformer Prime users inside their Ice Cream Sandwich update. Apparently, a new “experiments” function popped up inside of the native Gmail app. Generally speaking when dealing with Android, you want to be wary of anything labeled as “experimental” but in this case, you need not [...]

No, the above image isn’t some screenshot of Android 4.0 running on a tablet, it’s Windows 7 with the perfect touch of Ice Cream Sandwich. Lifehacker has David Molina’s Androidified setup as their featured desktop, and you can too. It starts with the ICS wallpaper and uses a combination of themes, skins, and other tools to [...]

You had to see this coming and many of you have actually been waiting for this moment. Android’s first successful “budget” tablet — the Kindle Fire — has finally gotten its taste of Ice Cream Sandwich thanks to the tireless Android modding community who dropped a pre-alpha AOSP ROM for the device early today. Just [...]

With Android 4.0′s updated camera software, the Galaxy Nexus has quite a few tricks up its sleeve for blossoming photographers. Time lapse video and sweeping panoramic views are just the tip of the ice berg. Here’s one feature that you will hopefully be as pleasantly surprised to discover as I was. While using the camera [...]
