Ever since the introduction of AOKP, then the boom of the PACman Roms, AOSP builds with a thousand features from different roms loaded into one has become somewhat of a… well, accepted practice, if not expected. It is the norm to expect an all inclusive rom on your device. Nothing wrong with...

Well this little bit of goodness should help out our developers tremendously. HTC has just released the kernel source for the new HTC DROID DNA. Giving devs a little help in their pursuit for DROID domination. That and to help them tweak things a bit more and make the device even more spectacular. After...

Custom 4.2 Visits Toro With each new release of the sweet treats from the Android Mother Ship, Google, there is a race (at times a meander) to get a solid stable build up that is full of clean coding, buttery smoothness, and all around Android tastiness.  In my mind the race from 4.1.2 to 4.2 was no...

Like tinkering and coding? Samsung has just released the Jelly Bean kernel source for the upcoming Galaxy S III LTE  device that is set to be launched next month. This would be the one headed to various markets across Europe. Don’t go thinking this will just flash over to your LTE enabled Galaxy...

In the mood for a little kernel source action? Samsung has recently released the source for the upcoming coming Galaxy Note 10.1 for those of you who like to tinker with things. It appears that there are two versions of the kernel source available. One labeled with a K and the other with a S. Both look...

Our developer community does a pretty darn good job building things up to make our devices not only faster, but get some of the latest Android goodness ahead of the company’s schedules. That doesn’t mean that a kernel source won’t make life a little bit easier for them to work with...

On and on we go with kernel source codes being released. All you developers out there have to be going nuts this week. Doing their very best to keep up with Samsung, HTC has just released the kernel source for the most recent update, 1.13.651.1, that was just pushed out yesterday to the EVO 4G LTE. That...

While Verizon may not want to unlock their bootloaders, that doesn’t mean it will prevent the community from doing what they need to so the device works amazingly. With a little help from Samsung too. They released the source code for all three other major carrier’s selling the Galaxy S III...

It is another happy day for developers across the globe who live and breathe HTC. They have recently just made the kernel source code available for nearly all of the HTC One S devices everywhere. Well, everywhere but the U.S. of course. This seems to be a trending issue with the U.S. and source. The...

Not to long ago the Sasmung Galaxy Note (GT-N7000) started to see an Ice Cream Sandwich update. Of course that is the unlocked international version, not the AT&T device. We are certain that developers around the globe were pretty stocked when it dropped though. Today we have a little bit more news...

Looks like HTC is trying to get what they can to our awesome developers, by releasing the kernel source for a slew of their devices. The newly added HTC One V is the big surprise since the phone has not even been released yet. No One S or One X yet, which people are more excited about, but check out...

When it comes to community support for our Android developers two company’s stand out right off the bat, HTC and Sony. While HTC continues to drop device bootloaders and source codes, Sony has taken it all one step further. Offering developers early preview builds of the latest software to work...

Ever wish your poor little (awesome) Galaxy Nexus would charge just a little faster? Sure why not right? Well and XDA senior member by the name of chad0989 has built a kernel patch for faster charging. What this patch does is for an AC charge giving you less time for you GNex to be plugged into...

The HP TouchPad maybe an over and done with story as far as HP is concerned, but they still did their best to keep a few secrets inside their servers. After a few TouchPads got shipped out of the warehouse accidently running an experimental build of Android, the community jumped on the chance to get...

Many of you are impatiently waiting for the Samsung Galaxy Note to finally hit the U.S. officially in just a few days. Pre-orders go live on the 5th and those orders are expected to be in your hands 2 days before AT&T stores can sell them. That is always pretty exciting. I wasn’t to sure about...
