AT&T has started pushing a small update out for their Samsung Infuse 4G. Before you ask no it’s not Gingerbread, however it does offers a few fixes to help keep your Froyo experiences enjoyable. Among these fixes is a solution to an Email sync problem that was occurring with Exchange 2003 servers. Additionally a baseband update is included as [...]
Upon updates rolling out one of the first questions asked is when will it be – if it’s already – rooted. This is no different for the EVO 4G Gingerbread update that just became available today. However the question has finally been answered. As a race began to be the first to root the new update two [...]
I personally like to know what makes developers and community members tick. What got them to where they are today and anything else they want to get off their chest. We recently gave you all a chance to win a copy of his latest book, ” App Inventor for Android; Build Your Own Apps – [...]
It’s almost unavoidable, at some point some one will ask you for your phone, whether to play a certain game, make a phone call, or simply check it out. Depending on the atmosphere you may not be able to keep an eye on them the whole time, so what’s to keep them from snooping. It’s [...]
It seems that while HTC may be provided a temporary roadblock in development regarding their devices LG has released theirs in the open state we’re use to. LG’s most recent device, the Revolution, hit shelves yesterday and has already been rooted. The guys over at RootzWiki managed this feat by using the rageagainsthtecage method which [...]

Just when we thought another leak couldn’t possibly roll out today the guys at 911Sniper have a late delivery. This time we’re seeing a Gingerbread test ROM for the HTC Droid Incredible, and so far the critics say it’s fast and stable but still lacks battery life improvements. Due to this being a test build [...]
This is not really out of the norm for a new device, as they all see overclocking following a release. Depending on the device and hardware results always vary. Some devices may see gains of as much as 600MHz while remaining stable and other may not make past 300MHz without going down in flames. Recent [...]
There have been modifications, fixes and ROMs altered to ensure that the NETFLIX application will run and let you stream your queued content on your Android device, but now there may be an easier solution. User skyjedi on XDA has created a thread containing a couple of modified NETFLIX APKs that should work on almost any Gingerbread device. The APKs listed [...]
I haven’t played with the T-Mobile Sidekick 4G as it’s never really appealed to me, but I guess when you look at it, it’s actually a pretty powerful Samsung Android phone. I received an email from ayOteddy who is looking for help and wants to know if the developers will help out and get SideKick 4G development [...]
The race for CM7 support on a Galaxy S is over, and the winner is, the Samsung Captivate. As one of the first Galaxy devices to hit the stores this device was subject to the same complaints and grips regarding Froyo and now Gingerbread updates from Samsung as we saw from the other Galaxy S [...]
What seems to have become a normal occurrence is now happening to the keyboard toting EVO Shift 4G. No it’s not an update, even better, it’s a leak. I mean who doesn’t want something there not supposed to have? This leaked ROM should not be considered a finished product as it’s most likely still in [...]
At this point we’ve seen numerous Gingerbread test builds fall through the cracks for various devices. Samsung Epic 4G has seen at least one so far, aptly named ED12, and recent news suggest it now has a another. This new test build, which carries the name EE03, has already been rooted and made flashable thanks [...]
Upon the purchase of a new device I’ll spend days going to the XDA forums and refreshing constantly waiting for that ever popular thread title to pop up with the word “[ROM]“. I find that development only seeks to make the devices better for the most part, and that a device never sees it’s true [...]
Samsung’s Galaxy Tab has already started receiving it’s Gingerbread update in select regions. What about people not in those specified places? They get it too of course, although not in the same way.
