How To’s

The new HTC Hero was finally announced (so you G1 users trying to load the leaked Hero ROM onto your G1’s can finally see what it would run like with the beefed up specs the Hero brings to the table). Unlike the Magic, the Hero actually seems to bring something new to the table (besides just losing the keyboard like the Magic did over the G1). It has a nice chunk more RAM (288mb instead of the 192mb the G1 has), a better camera (5.0MP instead of the 3.2MP), and what seems to be the most noticable new feature; the …

PLEASE NOTE! This method is obsolete! Please refer to the newer Rooting/Loading Custom ROM methods on our site: Unroot (G1) OR Unroot(MyTouch), then Root, then Load a Custom ROM, Apps2SD/Hero etc. So the G1 (or Android, not sure who to blame really), has an inherent flaw. It’s not that the cute little robot has to get poked like the Pilsbury dough boy for you to first use the phone, it’s the fact that when you save applications from the Market (part of the large appeal of the Android OS), it saves them to the phone’s internal memory instead of the SD card. …

T-Mobile’s second Google Android device has been seen in the wild (with T-Mobile branding and all). So we think this little guy is just around the corner. Question is… does anyone care? The phone has identical features to the G1 as far as we can tell, only difference is that the keyboard has been removed and the phone is now a bit more sleek. This will be great for people who don’t mind not having a keyboard and hated the looks of the G1 (can’t blame them too much on the latter, not the prettiest device). But current G1 owners? …

“Does this phone support Flash?” “Can I goto YouTube without using some YouTube program?” “Does the internet look like it does on my computer?” For most phones the answer to this questions is a resounding “No”. And the reasoning behind the No is the fact that most phones just don’t support Flash. YouTube runs on Flash, most embeded videos, banners, and a lot of games  also run on Flash so without Flash support in the a phone, the phone simply cannot run these things. But there is some hope, Adobe, the makers of Flash, have just announced that they have …

So it is official. The HTC Touch Pro2 will be available on every US major carrier in one form or another. AT&T, T-Mobile, Sprint, and Verizon will all have versions of the Touch Pro2. Even though T-Mobile was the first to announce that they were going to carry the device, it doesn’t seem they will be the first to actually release it. Sadly for us GSM users, Sprint will be the first to get their hands on the US version of the device (jealous much?). It is scheduled for release Mid-June. Here is some pics as proof. Judging by the …
