I’m sure that if you happen to be on the internet today, pretty much anywhere but especially on Google+, you’ve heard that Google+ for Android was to be receiving an important update today. The update was to provide a bigger focus on photo and location sharing to friends and others, but due to a mess up at Google HQ (they are human you know) the first build of the new app was a crashfe... »
We finally officially found out yesterday that Google Hangouts (what was once Babel) is real and it is Google’s first step in unifying our messaging service on the platform. Unfortunately it is not the end all to all the different service as of yet but it does kill off talk (and soon Messenger perhaps) in becoming the unification that it needs to be. What’s all included and what will b... »

For some of you, you may have had some excuse as to why you weren’t able to watch the keynote when it was life, you should feel bad it was awesome as expected. Well we are going to give you a second chance to watch it but be aware that you have to watch it now, because it’s too awesome to miss two days in a row. Don’t worry though I/O events are still going on and will be for the... »
Late last night we saw a nice little update to the Play Store (right in time for I/O if you ask me) that doesn’t do much for adding functionality but it does make things more aesthetic and easier on the eyes. All the changes I’ll not below seems to only fix visual aspects so be aware, but know that the download link is below so your’s can look like ours. The new update brings the... »
We’re a little over an hour from the start of this year’s exciting Google I/O keynote and the rumors and leaks are still coming — not surprising. We thought that you all would love to follow us and every other blog site out there in watching the keynote live since I’m assuming the majority of you are not out there at this moment. Don’t worry we feel your pain. Good th... »
![Update Alert: Google Play Services (v3.1.36); Say Hello to Play Games! [Download]](http://www.omgdroid.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/533xNxnexusae0_ic_launcher_play_games1.png.pagespeed.ic.azD1qFzfg6.png)
For every internet blog, newspaper, magazine, actor, etc. you have a person that is excellent at a specific task. The one I will mention today is Ron Amadeo over at AndroidPolice who does the APK teardowns, he’s great at reverse engineering and telling us information we can’t see. Thanks Ron. Today he got a _leaked_ version of Google Play Service, tore it down, and revealed a lot of gr... »
Well it’s the end of the week and before I go out and party and drink (I’m lying, I’m going to be on my computer all night), I thought that I should let you all know what’s be updated in the Android world lately. We have a few apps this time, even a few Google ones (that’s always a joy). So sit back, open the Play Store and prepare to press the update all button. Also... »
Google’s new App, One Today, is leveraging the scale of the Play Store to raise money for charities. It is a simple app, showing you a different not for profit each day which you can choose to donate a dollar to through Google Wallet and ask your friends to do the same. While you can only directly donate $1 at a time, you can set up a matching donation and match the funds that your friends r... »
That’s right everyone (prepare for a short article) the Play Store has already been updated, again. The new Card UI version shipped just last week, and I’m sure it was really buggy. The previous version was 4.0.25, and you can read all about it HERE, and this version only changes the build number to .26 — so we’re guessing just bug fixes. This WILL be pushed as with any oth... »
The Nexus 7 by Asus and Google is an amazing device, every one that I know who has one loves it. It is even beating out the Nexus 10 even though the 10 has better specs; the size and specs involved with the 7 simply beat other tablets. Plus it’s pure Google, which helps it beat Samsung’s Galaxy Tabs and other smaller tablets. Yet, what would it take for you to buy the upgrade? It’... »
