CHANGELOG —- 5.0.7 (pre) * Resync with Google as of 05/16/2010 * New ARM optimizations in Bionic from Jim Huang @ 0xlab * Superuser 2.0 from ChainsDD *...

The guys over at WireFly had their hands on the soon to be launched T-Mobile MyTouch 3G slide.  They’ve created a 13 minute review of the device. The conclusion seems to be that they really like it. Quote: Slated to slide into T-Mobile’s ever-expanding Android lineup in June, the myTouch 3G...

We received this post from Adam, one of our faithful readers. I enjoyed reading it and wanted to share his thoughts with you guys. I personally really like Eclair (2.1)… really… However, you guys gotta admit that Froyo makes Eclair look a little like Vista. Of course, it’s not considered...

eViL_D has release a new ROM for the Google Nexus One called eViL NXSOne Desire now at version 1.01. Big thanks to Paul @ modaco and the XDA community. This is a Desire for Nexus ROM. It is what I call barebones since I have removed most of HTC’s bloat. A few reasons I like the Desire ROM is...

Claim Code UMAR23DQ8962 It seem like the people at HTC are being very sneaky with their comments about the Sense UI coming to the MyTouch 3G.  As I reported previously, a HTC employee told me that Sense would not be coming to the T-Mobile MyTouch 3G.  It sounds like that may be true.  HTC Slide,...

As everyone knows, we all want the ability to go all day on a single charge on our phones, but for some of us it’s not possible with the usage we put our phones through. So developers started to build kernels to under-volt the processors while still keeping the the stock speed of the phone. As...

Good news for everyone, T-Mobile has officially announced that they will launch the MyTouch 3G slide on June 2nd, 11 days from now. Well, for T-Mobile customers, I think it’s a very good phone if you like the MyTouch series and are tired of your older device. MyTouch 3G Slide is going for $179.99...

Chief.Reloaded just sent me the latest CR_GotFroyo ROM for the T-Mobile G1 / MyTouch 3G and I’m absolutely amazed.  It must have a 10 fold increase in speed over the build I tried last night.  Seriously, this ROM has no more lag than the latest Android 2.1 ROMs available.  This guy is doing...

With all the excitement this week over Android 2.2, it’s easy to overlook other Android goings on, including the release of LG Ally. Apparently Verizon missed it too. Previously Ally was supposed to launch in stores on May 20th. Verizon has delayed the phone until May 27th, reason is that the phone...

Not since the G1 has there been a quality HTC Android with a slide out keyboard. You could say the soon-to-be released MyTouch Slide is an option, but with the number keys lumped in with the top alpha row and a retail price of $399, it simply does not fall into the same category as Droid Incredible or...

So I’ve finally got my phone back from T-Mobile. It has been repaired perfectly. However, after rooting, flashing CM5, and running my usual Titanium Backup restore, when I went to download any updates for my apps, this is what I was presented with. Yes. I had almost three full ‘pages’,...

ChiefzReloaded has been working hard on his Froyo ROM for the T-Mobile MT3G / T-Mobile G1 and now has the radio working and data connectivity. He’s been making phone calls and surfing the web. What’s working so far: Radio Gapps Widgets (That the SDK came with) Updated Kernel Here’s...
