How to Upgrade Motorola Droid to the Latest CyanogenMod 9 Firmware
by Paul Nuñal on Jan 28, 2012 1 Comments">1
It’s no surprise that CyanogenMod 9 has arrived for the Motorola Droid. It seems that every device always gets the good stuff, and the Motorola Droid is no exception, as Ice Cream Sandwich is now heading its way–unofficially, of course. CyanogenMod 9 presents a whole batch of new features and remains faithful to the Ice Cream Sandwich build. The Motorola Droid may possess ancient hardware by today’s standards, but developers loyal and faithful to the Motorola Droid are making it possible to get Ice Cream Sandwich running on the device. If you still have your Motorola Droid (yeah, go get …
How To Cleanse Your Android Device of DroidDream
by Matthew Sabatini on Dec 28, 2011 0 Comments">0
Google recently took more than 50 apps out of the Android Market. They did this because the apps were found to contain the Android malware DroidDream. As you could have guessed, malware is not good for your device. Just like a virus on your computer, malware is very dangerous and can do crazy things to your brand spanking new Android device. However, if you have Lookout Mobile Security or any of the other best security/antivirus apps installed on your device, chances are the malware will never make it on to your device. It is always a good idea to have some sort …

It has been just under 6 months since Motorola released the Droid 3, and it has become clear that the fourth device in the Droid series is on its way. Of course, yesterday, December 22nd, was the rumored date of release. However, the day has come and gone without any definitive word from Verizon or Motorola.

It is pretty clear that the Droid 4 will be landing in Verizon on or around February 2nd, 2012. This quick change of release dates should …
Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich on Droid 3, with some Benchmarks and Screenshots
by Brandon Sobotta on Dec 22, 2011 2 Comments">2
So the other night I got an alpha version of ICS installed on my Droid 3, and I have to say I am impressed. Hashcode has been hard at work since the release of the source code, and had done some amazing things. I am currently using it for my daily driver and if you don’t mind being a guinea pig give it a shot yourself. For being an alpha it is very stable, and many of the main functions work. Here is the list from Hashcode’s blog of what works and what does not. Many of the base phone functions are now working. And that …

A lot of terms today are thrown around in the Android community that to some, may be a little confusing. I have decided to write a post that may help clear up some of the confusion for the newcomers to the world that we have come to know as Android. The first part (that I will not covering today) is the hardware our phones are built with; the processor, screen, battery, and etc. The other is the software that is on the phone, generally referred to as the firmware. Today, I am going to go over some of the terms in reference …

ICQ App for Android Review

The ICQ app strives to merge many of your social networking features, and text messaging into one package. It seems like a tough goal to meet, and can it live up to its efforts? While it does manage to achieve some of its goals, some of the rest may just be out of reach. Let’s take a look at what it succeeds in, and where it fails. Video The Good – Consolidation I really enjoyed this app for what it was, an app to chat with people and follow feeds. I could talk to people from Google+/talk, Facebook, ICQ, and …
How To Root Your Droid RAZR
by Brandon Sobotta on Nov 12, 2011 11 Comments">11
A little more then a week ago we reported that the Droid RAZR had been rooted before its release. Shortly before the official release of the RAZR @ 11:11 on 11/11/11 the root method has been made available. This is not the same 1-step program that has been used on the Bionic or Droid 3, but it is the same walk through. With this root method available, hopefully some developers can get to work on some debloated ROM’s for the RAZR. Also be careful when rooting your RAZR and messing around with the system files, no SBF or FXZ are available should you …

by Brandon Sobotta on Nov 01, 2011 0 Comments">0
It seems like Motorola has been hard at work addressing the issues that owners of the Droid Bionic have experiencing. In the last few weeks the members of forums such as XDA, and androidforums.com have been playing around with a non-official update that has escaped Motorola/Verizon’s grasp. The update known as 5.5.886 seems to have addressed some of the bugs, and problems that we outlined a while back. Some of the issues include loss of data connectivity, poor battery life, sluggish camera, and on and on. So far most Bionic owners have noticed such benefits from the update such as better battery life, quicker camera, and better …
Liberty3 ROM Now Available for Droid 3.
by Brandon Sobotta on Oct 28, 2011 2 Comments">2
For people of you who are fans of the hardware of Motorola phones, but not such big fans of Motorola’s skinned UI known as Motoblur, we have good news. Yesterday, Kejar31 and Jurmmy16 released the popular Liberty3 ROM for the Droid 3. This ROM gives the user a more ‘vanilla’ Android experience, something many enthusiasts prefer over such skinned interfaces such as Touchwiz, Sense, and the previously mentioned Motoblur. The ROM is by no means in perfect working order, but its amazing how well Liberty3 is running thus far. Some of the bugs popping up for some users have included the …

Well today, a teaser was placed on the site with one piece out of the sixteen of the completed image, but the folks at Droid-Life have gotten a hold of the completed masterpiece as you can see above. It fits right in with the images of the DROID RAZR/Spyder/DROID HD we’ve seen in the past. If you take a look at the picture you’ll see its sporting a cool new Droid eye too, which …
