Enomther has released his first full Nexus One ROM for the Google Nexus One phone.  This release is based on the AOSP 2.1 source code and makes a few nice enhancements to the base Nexus One ROM.  The first full ROM release is TheOfficial Nexus1 ROM – v1.4 and I hear that version 1.5 is already...

I fall asleep and the world falls apart. Ok, not really but Walmart issued a response to the Nexus One ad that was posted on their website. They are blaming a “technical error” on the “accidental” post and claim they will not be selling the Nexus One in Walmart stores or online…...

Yo dawg Rayzibit here. I heard you got that new Nexus One phone and you’re tired of that plain old grey look. Well I’m here to pimp your phone. I’m thinking we go with a little red around the edge and blue in the back, kinda like a hot rod look and maybe some carbon fiber around the...

I discovered a post regarding a new, experimental kernel for use with the Nexus One. As you all should know (unless you’ve been stuck in a Nuclear Bunker, or under a rock for the past year), the Nexus One is Google’s new kitchen-sink-included Android smartphone, which is for now only available...

Whoa, TMO! Slow your roll! You’ve got to be kidding me… Nope, they’re not kidding. T-Mobile tells customers they sure hope they like that new myTouch 3g LE Fender they just bought because they aren’t taking it back…ever. According to Tmo News, the LE is not eligible for...

Walmart has everything. And now according to Android and Me, it will have the Nexus One as well. Walmart just put up a page for the Nexus One to announce that it will be coming soon.

Last week we heard of some dissapointing results of the first tests of LTE (reached “only” 12 Mbps instead of the “promised” 50 Mbps or so), but it turns out that’s all they were, first tests. Read below the update from Northstream who performed the additional tests: We have continued...

…But, you may have to wait… The good news? According to the official forums for Irish mobile provider Meteor, HTC has an update to the Hero Android OS. They state that this would bring the device up to Android 2.1. The bad news? It is up to a couple months away, dropping at the end of March. Let’s...

Blurry shots of the rumored and barely believed HTC Supersonic seems to have surfaced. Remember that odd screenshot showing a device with this name running Android 3.0? Well, this may be it, sort of… Word is that it has and will have Android 2.1, not the 3.0 revealed in the screenshot. The phone...

The German Mozilla Community Website camp-firefox.de reported that a first beta version of Firefox for Android (Fennec) would be coming out in February 2010. Apparently most of the work has been done and the application was started sucessfully on an Android phone, even though surfing was not possible...

I came across something that belongs in the category “why didn’t I think of that” and wanted to share this with you. One of the things I believe is very important to us all: How is the battery life on my phone. Mike Cardwell thought of the idea to gather the battery usage data from...

Cyanogen has released his Beta 2 version of CyanogenMod 5.0 for Nexus One (EXPERIMENTAL). Direct Download Here Here’s the info from Cyanogens XDA thread: I’ve spent a bit of time working with the latest AOSP code, and figured out all of the necessary components to build a working system for...
