Upgrade HTC EVO 4G to Ice Cream Sandwich Via ics-deck-evo Custom ROM
by Alvin Ybañez on Mar 11, 2012 7 Comments">7
Early last month, HTC announced the list of HTC phones slated for upgrading to Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich (ICS) some time before March ends. The HTC Evo 4G isn’t on the list. Will it be getting official ICS from HTC? We’re not sure. Can you get ICS for your HTC Evo 4G unofficially? You bet! RootzWiki developer deck has created a custom ROM of ICS for the HTC Evo 4G. Despite being an old phone (released in 2010), the Evo 4G does have enough muscle for ICS. Deck’s AOSP-based custom ROM is still under active development and almost all …

by Alexander Maxham on Oct 24, 2011 1 Comments">1
Last week Sprint announced a new member of the EVO family, the HTC EVO Design 4G. If you remember, in 2010 when the original HTC EVO 4G was released, it changed the Android world. It was way ahead of any other phone out there at the time. Both the Motorola Admiral and HTC EVO Design 4G are available for $99.99 on a two-year contract after a $50 mail-in rebate. The EVO Design 4G is a world phone with a 4.0-inch qHD display and a 1.2GHz CPU – not dual core, unfortunately. The Motorola Admiral features a processor with the same …

After the big announcement made In Hong Kong, the Galaxy Nexus and Android 4.0 were officially announced. We were all left wondering if our beloved Android phone would be getting the update to Android 4.0, also known as Ice Cream Sandwich. Well, we have put together a nice list of our predictions of what devices will, what devices might, and what device will not be getting official ICS updates. With contracts, and over $500-off-contract prices for new phones like the Galaxy Nexus, which is coming next month, we’d like to keep our current phone around as long as possible – right? Phones …
HTC Devices Naked, Vulnerable with Security Flaw
by Elmer Montejo on Oct 02, 2011 0 Comments">0
If you’re presently using an HTC Android device, chances are you’re a sitting duck for malicious hacking. Working with security experts Justin Case and Trevor Eckhart, Artem Russakovski of Android Police, reported about a security flaw in HTC Android gadgets that could potentially allow intruders to access sensitive information on your Android device. Although Russakovski explicitly mentioned the HTC EVO 3D, HTC EVO 4G, and HTC Thunderbolt, there is a big chance that other HTC devices are also affected. Case, Eckhart, and Russakovski are still investigating the matter–and they are finding new issues the deeper they dig. Devices running stock …

by Gracielli Robaro on Sep 04, 2011 2 Comments">2
Of all the manufacturers who participated in the Android Update Alliance (AUA), HTC has been found to have the most up-to-date Android smartphone. Thirteen of the HTC-manufactured phones have Android 2.3 or Gingerbread. LG, however, has the most number of phones (9 of 15, or 60%) that have received Android updates, while HTC has 14 out of 24 (58%) that have received updates. Samsung, however, has the most number–33 in total–of Android smartphones released to various mobile carriers. (The number includes the count for the same handset but released to different carriers.) Android and Me tracked the statistics and came …
HTC Kingdom Specs Leak; To Be called Acquire/EVO Design 4G?
by Mina on Sep 02, 2011 2 Comments">2
Looks like Android fans will have a lot to expect this September from our Android manufacturers, like HTC. HTC will be holding some events on September in England, France, Spain, and Germany, and rumor has it that the highlights of the show will be “Eternity” and “Omega” of Windows Phone 7 fame. However, speculations abound that an HTC phone called “Kingdom” will make an appearance, with its specs and the unofficial name recently leaked strategically before the HTC event. According to the leak, HTC Kingdom has a 4″ qHD display (540 x 960) and will run on Android 2.3.4 with …

by Darcy LaCouvee on Aug 29, 2011 2 Comments">2
Just a few short days ago, our own in-house Android guru, and prescient technology trend predictor, Lucian, caught wind of HTC’s latest iteration of their Sense overlay. Today, the same folks over at XDA.cn have been able to get a hands-on video that offers us a clear picture that HTC is indeed on the right track. They have rightly earned their place at the top spot of the overlay podium for creating a beautiful and intuitive overlay. Steadily improved with each progressive update, this newest version looks to be even snappier than before. What’s more is that it is running …
Freshly Baked HTC Sense 3.0 ROM Called Kinged SHOOTER E3D Comes Out of XDA Oven
by Vinny Marino on Aug 22, 2011 3 Comments">3
The HTC EVO 4G has seen its flashes of HTC Sense 3.0 ROMs in various colors. And, while the ROMs shine bright and colorful while they are still fresh off the oven, their brilliance tend to fade away as more users explore them and discover several of their lackluster performance. The most frequently griped about are the lag during normal operation of the device and the lock-ups while attempting to unlock the phone (talk about irony here). The VR Kingdom ROM, for instance, came out and was royally bowed down to as the first true HTC Sense 3.0 ROM available …

Best Android Phones for Sprint in 2011
by Darcy LaCouvee on Aug 01, 2011 8 Comments">8
Sprint is, arguably, one of the better wireless carriers currently operating in the U.S. They have consistently tried to offer their users good phones, and 2011 is looking to be no exception. Back in the day when the HTC Evo 4G was released, it was sort of a big deal. With its massive screen, powerful processor (at the time), it was the first 4G WiMax device for Sprint. Sprint took notice that it was selling like hot-cakes, and has since continued to aggressively pursue some of the better phones on the market for its consumer base. Not long after that, …
Apple Hits HTC Anew with Fresh Infringement Case
by Elmer Montejo on Jul 13, 2011 6 Comments">6
With its lackluster patent portfolio backing it against infringement suits, Taiwan-based original equipment manufacturer HTC is a sitting duck for legal bullets, arrows, and other awfully sharp legal objects. The latest bullet to hit HTC was a patent infringement complaint lodged by Apple against the popular Android device manufacturer. If the ITC rules in favor of Apple, the decision will result in the complete cessation of sales of the infringing devices in the United States. Apple filed a complaint last week with the U.S. International Trade Commission (ITC) alleging that HTC infringed 5 patents that Apple owns. Three of the …
Skype App Cracked Open, Now Allows Video Calls on Non-Supported Handsets
by Elmer Montejo on Jul 01, 2011 6 Comments">6
Skype just updated its Skype app for Android yesterday, and along with the update came support for video calls on several handsets. Skype video calls now work on the Samsung Galaxy S (requires Android 2.2 Froyo), Google Nexus S (except the U.S. version of the Google Nexus S 4G), HTC Desire S, Sony Ericsson Xperia neo, and Sony Ericsson Xperia pro. The supported devices are literally just a handful. Although Skype has been promising “support for more handsets soon,” no one knows the day or hour that defines “soon.” Apparently, “soon” is too far away for some folks. With the …
