There are very few things that are as exciting as a new device that is launching. The only thing that in my mind tops it is when the device is already confirmed to be easily rooted. Although we have no physical proof such as screen shots of video, we do however have it from a very reliable and trust worthy source. Said source, was able to utilize the same one click method that can be used for the ... »
Ok, so is there any other reason to launch a device at 11:11 am on 11/11/11 other than the fact that it is kinda cool? Not to my knowledge. Who knows though, the significance of that specific date and time can or even the time its self does have some rather interesting theories, or conspiracies if you take it that way. There are plenty of them out there, some are a little out there, but some are ... »
If you are looking for a gift to give the Android junkie that has everything, you might want to consider something you can afford. Rather than spend hundreds of dollars on a new tablet of phone, pick the Android lover in your life up a Cookie jar! Everyone loves cookies and with the holidays fast approaching, we all could use some place to store all those cookies from Grandma. The cookie jar is ma... »
One of AT&T’s first LTE devices, the HTC Vivid, is set to launch on November 6th. With the launch of a new device we sometimes wonder what other retailers besides the carrier stores will be offering the device. We can lock Costco down as being one of at least a handful that will offer this one. The new launch ad goes through some of the specs of this device but doesn’t lean towards any retail ... »
Buried in the depth of the ever growing world of XDA is a developer by the name of cyansmoker. He has taken the concept of the iidaHome, which is a Japanese home replacement, and brought it a few steps further for use here in the states. It dramatically changes how you navigate your device. For starters the launcher runs vertical instead of horizontal. So navigation is one clean long page of goodi... »
If you are even mildly excited about Amazons new Kindle Fire that is scheduled to launch on Nov 15th then you should definitely keep reading. In an effort to hype up the device a little bit more, Amazon is giving 10 of them away.

We all love to see a new device get launched by a carrier. The Motorola Atrix 2 was recently launched last week and the questions that power users ask right away is; Can it be rooted and how? Even though Motorola is notorious for trying to make the communities life difficult, they haven’t succeeded in the slightest. The original root method that p3droid put together for the Droid Bionic has been t... »
As a general consumer of applications nothing is more frustrating than finding an awesome app that won’t work on my device. It happens on occasion and can not only frustrate me but the developer. If it was a free app that could have led me to purchase their pro app, it is money out of their pocket. Many developers will test their applications on as many different devices as they have available to ... »
When it comes to classic first person shooters I always think of tow, Goldeneye and Duke Nukem. Since Goldeneye hasn’t really found its way to Android just yet, I will settle for Duke Nukem 3D. There was something amazingly fun about the comments that Duke said, not to mention blowing up alien pigs with a plethora or weapons. There are a few drawbacks to the game, mostly due to the fact that FPS’s... »
We haven’t had a whole lot of time to dig out many MIUI themes that aren’t surrounded around Ice Cream Sandwich. As much as I love talking about ICS, I am over it already. I am certain many of you are too. At least until the real ROMs start rolling out to our devices. Until that happens we are still all about customization for both functionality as well as looks. This is just a MIUI lockscreen the... »
