The pictures of one of the most anticipated phone, HTC Supersonic, have been leaked. This upcoming “superphone” from HTC is rumoured to hit the market later this year.  The source confirmed that it has a 4.3 inch screen, WiMAX compatible, FM radio and has a 1 GHZ Snapdragon like the Nexus One.  It comes with 5 megapixel camera with kickstand.  And it will be running Android 2.1, together with HTC Sense. The pictures are really [...]

About 10 days since I started using my Nexus One, I am still quite happy with it, except some problems with the Android 2.1 OS. Android is a piece os OS that is still being worked on and improved by Google over time.  At this moment, there are still some missing parts and bugs that make it not complete (and enhancements are needed), at least from my perspective. Microsoft ActiveSync is supported, but there is [...]

It’s a matter of time. Nokia’s Maemo platform, the N900, has been hacked to allow dual boot into Android.  The video below is showing the device is hacked to offer booting into Android.  Although nothing much (no instruction of how to do this) has been shown in the video, but we are there will be more information coming soon and the N900 owners will able to enjoy both OSes on a single device soon.

HTC has posted a ROM upgrade for the HD2.  The version is shown as 1.66.707.1. According to the support web, this update has the following improved functions: Keeping in touch has always been very important, and this update delivers fast and reliable SMS messaging. I suspect it is trying to fix the SMS problem that the HD2 is currently facing.  As usual, you can download the update from HTC’s support site here. Remember to backup [...]

This sounds a bit unfair to me When HTC HD2 goes to US, it will get a bit more of RAM and ROM.  That’s 1Gb ROM instead of 512Mb and 576Mb RAM instead of 488Mb. What’s more?  They will bundle a 16Gb MicroSD when you buy it in US. I do not care about the 16Gb MicroSD they are bundling, but the internal 1Gb of ROM.  That will actually make some differences when running applications.  [...]

A recent multitasking test from Precentral.net has shown the upcoming Palm Pre Plus (with more RAM than the original Palm Pre) is capable of openning 50 applications at the same time.  And this is amazing if you compare to iPhone, and even multitasking capable devices like Windows Mobile devices and Android handsets. The original post is here and you can view the video below. Would Palm Pre Plus my next device?

Google has been talking about accessories for Nexus One but there are no sign of them until now. Someone spotted an ad on youtube.  Guess what.  It is the “New Nexus One Dock” for USD45.  And it will charge the phone, plays photo slideshows, & more. However, it is still not available when you check the www.google.com/phone.  So may be an accidental leaked of the upcoming dock. Well Nexus One users like me will still [...]

The famous Android hacker – Cyanogen, has releaased a patch that will make the browser on your Nexus One do pinch and zoom using your 2 fingers.  We do not need to wait for Google to make their design decision to add this to the native applications on Nexus One. It is simple, follow the instruction here on XDA-developers.  You only need to download a few files and run a few commands. The video below [...]

The announcement of Google offering navigation software has got many of the GPS navigation companies like TomTom and Garmin into trouble.  The announcement from Nokia will get them into more troubles. Nokia has just announced to offer their Ovi Maps turn-by-turn navigation software free for Nokia smartphone users.  And the offer is global.  It covers 74 countries in 46 languages — a move that should cover 20 million smartphones globally with Ovi Maps available in [...]

The brother of Google Nexus One, the HTC Bravo, may be coming to market sooner than what we thought. The Bravo has almost identical specs as Nexus: 3.7″ AMOLED screen, 1Ghz Snapdragon, WVGA screen, 5MP camera, etc.  However, it has been spotted an optical joystick and it is rumoured to come with FM radio receiver.  And of course, being a high end HTC Android device, it will come with the Sense interface and the latest [...]
