Samsung is expected to make their Galaxy S III debut next month at Mobile World Congress, but they have one more device up their sleeve: the Galaxy S Advance. This handset is pretty much another device from Samsung’s original Galaxy S line, but there’s really nothing advanced about it. Specs...

Thank you again my fellow Android friends for clicking in to another episode of The ManDroid Show. Enjoy of course. As always all articles below are covered in the show and pay close attention to the show. We are going to eventually start putting random hidden things in the show for giveaways. More...

As nice as it is to see that little green battery charging on your screen when your phone is off and charging, it is pretty boring. We have boot animations, lock screen replacements and home replacements, but I haven’t seen any charging replacements till now. XDA member, Chainfire, has taken the...

I know this CM7 theme isn’t for every body but it has a special place in my collection due to its darkness. As many of you already know, with the Galaxy S series of devices blacks give us a great contrast as well as save on battery consumption. DJDarkknight has been putting together his DarkGinger...

Those of us that have been around the block since Android was getting launched remember and probably still use SMS Popup. I thought with the holidays being over and so many new-to-Android users coming online everyday, maybe we should revisit some of the earliest applications. This application comes...

CES is just around the corner, only 8 days to go. For those of you that aren’t familiar with CES, it is the single largest Consumer Electronics Show in the world and is held in Las Vegas, Nevada once a year. This is the event where we will all see the latest and greatest technologies by over 3000...

Looks like Christmas won’t be a total bust for all Samsung Galaxy S owners. A tip came into Phone Arena with a handy camera phone James Bond style photo, showing that on December 26th, the Epic 4G’s will start to receive their Froyo OTA. The update is expected to roll out over a 4 day time...

I have no idea how I have missed this application for so long. Even at the lowest level of brightness on my Samsung Vibrant, if I am lying in the dark, I nearly blind myself turning on the screen to do something. Developer haxor industry put an app out back in November called Screen Filter. What it...

This is some good news for us Galaxy S owners, although it does come with a price. The latest Skype update will work on all Samsung Galaxy S devices as long as you are running Android 2.2. Not the news we were all hoping for. Still though, it is progress in the right direction. Now we just need Samsung...

Bell mobility in Canada is releasing the Froyo update for its Galaxy S device. This is great news for them, not so great news still for the U.S. variants. Bell is strongly requesting its customers to update their software to the latest complete build. With 2.2 bringing in many fixes and updates to solve...

Cellular South is taking the battle for users to another level. Right now if you take that raggedy iPhone in and turn it over to them they will give you $100 toward a shiny new device with them. Cellular South is very confident that by putting more money in your pocket, you might be able to make the...

GPS issues have been no stranger to the Samsung Galaxy S devices. They have plagued many, and many others have experienced no issues at all. Fortunately, I have been one of the few that never seemed to have an issue. Since the carriers and OEMs seem to always be behind in solving issues with their devices...

Looks like our friends on the other side of the ocean might be in store for a treat today. T-Mobile UK has been working with Samsung very closely to help get Firmware-Over-The-Air (FOTA) updates out in a more expedient fashion. This could be a good thing for everyone very soon. If carriers can work...

Preconceived Notions When I first read about the Continuum a few weeks back, I felt that it was kind of odd.  It had that weird ticker, a gimmick, as far as I was concerned.  ”Oh, great, a tiny main screen with this odd little screen below,” were my exact thoughts.  It seemed weird to...

I love seeing all these competitions put out there to get more community involvement.  Opera Mobile is getting closer to dropping its Beta tag and that is a big deal all by itself. To help them get there they have initiated a ‘design a wallpaper’ contest.  Check out the official rules: Download...
