Remember a few weeks ago when we got the Android OS Update for a Security Fix but no details were provided? Well… I think now we know what that was all about. At the Black Hat Security Conference in Las Vegas, Charlie Miller and Collin Mulliner spoke about vulnerabilities in mobile platforms like Android, iPhone, [...]

Lately we’ve voiced our irritation that the Samsung Galaxy isn’t available much of anywhere. Not only that, but we haven’t heard a peep from Samsung about their plans on bringing it to other lands. Finally we’ve got some good news – the Samsung Galaxy just passed the FCC!

There is good news and bad news… which [...]

Before the first ever Samsung Android Phone – the Samsung Galaxy – makes its way to American shores we’re already hearing about another version of the same phone… the Samsung Galaxy Lite. The Wi-Fi Alliance passed the phone through its certification process and IN the process outed the device’s existence.

There is no solid evidence that [...]

Everyone is excited for Motorola’s first Android Phone, especially since the mere existence of Motorola is leaning on its Android hopes. We’ve already seen the Motorola Morrison, Motorola Calgary and Motorola Heron… now we’re hearing word (and seeing pictures) of a new Motorola Android… the Motorola Sholes:

Most discussion up to now has been about the [...]

Since I was 11 years old, Acer has been talking about launching an Android Netbook. Okay… maybe not that long, but you get the point. Two days ago those childhood dreams were crushed when DigiTimes asserted that Acer had delayed its Android Netbook aspirations and would potentially terminate them altogether. PCWorld just renewed my hope.
Acer [...]

The wait is over. Now that some T-Mobile customers are reporting they have received their MyTouch 3G, Google has made the new apps packaged with the phone available on the Android Market. This includes the highly regarded “Sherpa” application and T-Mobile Visual Voicemail – 2 applications that are bound to find room on plenty of [...]

The government’s purpose is to serve the people and that they have done very, very well – the FCC has just passed the Motorola Morrison with flying colors, giving us some additional details about the upcoming and unannounced handset. Lets piece together the clues.
First we have the “Attestation Statements” which give us a bunch of [...]

A series of how-to videos just released showing just how to do all the basic need to know functions of the myTouch 3G. The series of videos come in 12 parts so that you do not have to go through and watch most of the video just to find a specific potion.

Most of the video [...]

Considering the specs of the Samsung Galaxy and given Samsung is one of the top mobile manufacturers in the world, it is kind of surprising we haven’t heard more about their first Android Phone. This is probably due to the circles we travel, noting the lack of availability in English speaking lands, but Italian blog [...]

SugarSync already has backup and cloud syncing services for many platforms and devices including iPhone, BlackBerry, Windows Mobile, PC and Macs. Today the company announced the availability of SugarSync for Android! To download simply search “SugarSync” in AndroidMarket and it should pop up!

Here is the description directly from the market:

There are a lot of people who don’t know what the following image is or what purpose it serves:

It is called a QR Code (quick response code) and it is a 2D barcode that is popular in Japan. It has found an incredibly practical use with mobile phones – scanning the code with your phone’s [...]

It isn’t any secret that Google and Facebook have butted heads in the past, so while Facebook apps are on virtually every mobile platform that makes a difference right now, there is no Official Facebook App for Android. This dates back to last November when Facebook dissed Android:
In fact, Facebook execs themselves were heard calling [...]

We got our hopes up and now we’re let down – the Philips V808 Android phone that we just heard about has some disappointing news. First of all, the phone will be exclusively available on China Mobile. Secondly, it will have China Mobile’s proprietary Android build called the OPhone which is more iPhone-like and alledgedly [...]

We’ve hear SO much about Android Netbooks over the past year, often courtesy of Acer. They joined the Open Handset Alliance in June and the world is waiting for the unannounced Acer A1 Android Phone and an Acer Android Netbook for August Launch. The latter of those won’t happen in August… and might not EVER [...]

Remember that bright pink HTC Hero we initially saw when the phone first leaked? Although not THAT bright, women (and men looking for gift ideas) will be happy to know that the Pink HTC Hero is available for purchase at Mobiles.co.uk:

Compare that to the eye scorching version from the original leak, before the HTC Hero [...]

The main downfall of this phone could be the name – it sounds like something a French guy would say on Easter Sunday. But joking aside, Zii EGG is a pretty big story that shows how Android is and will allow smaller innovative companies (Zii Labs) to breakthrough the barriers to entry in the mobile [...]

Here we are midway into 2009 and we’re already spoiled with existing and upcoming Android Phones. It seems like yesterday the tech critics were questioning the viability of Android and now they’re all drooling over the Xperia X3. When you’ve got a device running Android its hard to forget that bigger and badder isn’t always [...]

Just a refresher – the G2 Touch is the T-Mobile UK name for the HTC Hero, but for all intents and purposes they are the exact same phone. That phone – which we unboxed, reviewed and loved – will be on sale tomorrow if you purchase online and will start popping up in stores as [...]

A little snooping in the public files of the United States Patent and Trademark Office have uncovered 5 new names that HTC has trademarked:

HTC Vigor
HTC Dawn
HTC Interlude
HTC Imagio
HTC Tattoo

These are presumably the names of upcoming HTC phones, and considering that 50% of HTC phones will run Android by next year, I think its safe to [...]
