  Okay so maybe Huawei phones aren’t the best phones on the market, and definitely not on the average consumer’s wishlist when they run sort of in the same [no contract] price range as a phone in the Samsung Galaxy or HTC One Series. However one thing that all Android users alike share...

Hello my fellow Android Fanatics. Here we have a hands on approach to the IdeaTab A2109A by Lenovo.  This is the first tablet I’ve had the pleasure of testing out and I went into it initially with a great deal of skepticism due to the fact I’d only heard of Lenovo in passing.  Myself being...

Alright Moto friends, it is time to find out if that device you have is going to be receiving some butter. Motorola revised their software update page today, listing the devices that will be receiving some Jelly Bean love. Here is the list: DROID RAZR M (XT907) – before 2013 DROID RAZR HD (XT926)...

Tired of all the market share posts yet? Well here is one more! Google released new Android numbers and ICS doubled since last month, bringing it to a total of 15.9% among Android devices! (It seems in order for an OS to go big, you have to let carriers know they are behind by 2 now). Jelly Bean also...

Heads up Samsung Galaxy S II owners! Your long wait is almost over and that purchase is about to pay off. Thanks to a heads up from The Verge, we now know Sammy has officially announced the highly anticipated update to Android 4.0, aka Ice Cream Sandwich for the SGSII. The update will be available beginning...

For HTC Amaze 4G owners, the custom ROM community hasn’t exactly been as exciting as it has for many other devices. To my knowledge, there is a total of one AOSP ROM available for flashing and only a handful of developers working on custom Sense builds. While, we were just graced with a touch...

Heads up Android fanatics! If you’re in the market for a new smartphone, now is the time to buy. Amazon Wireless is offing the Samsung Galaxy Nexus for only $99 for new Verizon customers. If you’re already a Big Red custy, you can wrangle yourself a brand new GNex for $229 — still...

Archos G9 tablet owners have received an apology via Facebook for the tardiness of the much-anticipated Ice Cream Sandwich update they were promised would arrive during the first week of February. Additionally, Archos announced that “they fully anticipate deploying the upgrade within the next...

One of the most awesome things about the Android community is the interaction and support we receive from one another in our endeavors. One of the most familiar faces in the crowd, the CyanogenMOD team, is looking to change things up a bit for the shindig that is CM9 and they need your help doing so....

Owners of the Asus Eee Pad Transformer have had quite the week. After all was said and done, Asus made good on their promise to roll out Ice Cream Sandwich and even managed to surprise the world by doing so in February. As a new owner of the tablet, I was quite pleased with the performance of Honeycomb....

It surely didn’t take long for this to happen, considering the official Ice Cream Sandwich OTA update was released for the Asus Transformer less than 48 hours ago here in the United States. If you own the tablet and you’ve waited for the day to come when you’d be able to get a taste...

Here we are again at one of my favorite times of year. The cold winter snow is in the process of melting into the ground to make way for lush, green grass. Spring training is just getting underway for Major League Baseball. More importantly, a new version of Android called Ice Cream Sandwich was released...

Chances are, you’ve probably already heard of Handcent SMS, considering the Android Market statistics show that the app has seen anywhere between 10 and 50 million downloads. For many, this go-to app has completely replaced Android’s stock Messaging application for a long time. The app...

Nova Launcher, perhaps the best ICS launcher currently available, just got an update to beta 15. Included in this update are features such as scrollable folders, improved responsiveness, and a bunch of bug fixes. The full changelog can be found here: Beta15 Feb 16 2012 Scrollable folders (folders...
