HTC Incredible Poised for CTIA
Mar 12th
The HTC Incredible has been seen in the wild, yet again, leading us to believe the handset has been prepped and readied for a CTIA announcement. Dressed in Verizon black and red, this super phone has an awful lot going on under the hood. If you look at the bottom right of the battery cover you will see the Verizon logo silk-screened in the corner. We’d be very surprised if CTIA comes and goes without a word from anyone.
We’ve scoured over 107 pages of the AndroidForums post where these images come from and have collected some specs. Since nothing is confirmed by HTC or Verizon, these details are subject to change.
With that out of the way, here’s what we can expect out of the Incredible:
- 1 GHz Snapdragon processor
- 3.7 inch AMOLED WVGA 800×480
- 512MB ROM | 1GB RAM
- 8 megapixel camera with dual LED flash and autofocus
- Android 2.1 | Sense UI
- Optical track pad
- 1300 mAh battery
- 8GB MicroSDHC card
- FM Tuner
- Dimensions: 117.5 mm (L) x 58.5 mm (w) x 11.9 mm (T)
So… who wants one?

My Life With The Nexus One (or, How I Became a Rabid Android Fanboy)
Mar 11th
It was almost like Christmas, and I was an 8 year old boy again. Only it wasn’t Christmas and this wasn’t a puppy I had found under the tree. It was just after Valentines Day and this was a brown cardboard box in my hands. This brown box was a gift from The Greatest Girlfriend In The World, and it was my drug of choice… a brand new gadget. But it wasn’t just any new gadget; it was a Nexus One.
And now it was mine.
I feel as though I have joined a club… When encountering another Nexus One owner, we both readily whip out our phones to share any tips or tricks (did you know that speech to text recognizes supercalifragilisticexpialodocious?). I don’t see this camaraderie with any other type of device. Sure, while some would say that Apple/iPhone users share a bond, I’d go so far as to say that it’s more like a cult with His Holiness Jobs looking down from on high instructing his minions on what to do. I have made friends with people in other cities, states, and even nations… simply because of our shared ownership of this handset.

Is Bravo headed for T-Mo US?
Mar 10th
You know that killer, Sense-powered sister to the Nexus One that has been confirmed by virtually every carrier across the pond but not by a one over here? I’m talking about Desire, and that it does inspire. Had I the time or the sign of an inkling, I’d write a poem for that twinkling screen upon which my fingers (multiple, true) could dance and twirl and bring such joy to my eyes and uh… What was I saying? Oh, that it probably won’t be called Desire when it does launch over here, and that has my source wondering about the validity of the following claims. Then again, the people he’s talking to might understand the connection and could just be using the more widely accepted brand. Who knows?
Andrew Kameka over at Androinica has word that T-Mobile managers around the country have been briefed on, and spent some hands on time with, a large touch screen Android phone. Andrew did what he could to check multiple sources. He’s classifying it as a rumor, but it is tantalizing, No? That’s the kind of news that leads to re-upping when a man is almost out of contract!

Supersonic video shot by spy
Mar 10th
People have been clamoring for more information on HTC’s planned Androids for 2010 ever since the namedropping and roadmap leak of December. From countless mentions and burry shots to (likely phony) screengrabs, the dominant Android OEM is consistently the focus of some buzz or leak. Maybe a few folks have been repremanded or lost their jobs as of late, because this leaker goes the extra mile in protecting their identity…
Fuzzy gloves carefully handle the device, never revealing the area below the screen. The video stops before the phone has finished booting; probably because of a watermark on the home screen. It is what is it, but at least we get a glimpse of the device.

Legend unboxing and first boot
Mar 6th
SlashGear recently got their hands on HTC’s follw-up to the Hero, Legend, and you can check out a slew of images of the two devices sitting next to one another over at their site. As a fan of the original design, I have to say that I think Legend is incredibly sexy. Had it the specs of the hotly anticipated Bravo (Desire) I’m not sure I could choose between the two, given the option. Unfortunately, I won’t be burdened with making that choice any time soon.
Two videos – unboxing and first boot – after the break:

Poll Shows AG Community Is Unified On Apple vs. HTC
Mar 6th
For those of you who are unaware, every week Android Guys holds a poll accessible from the Android Guys App. For this week’s poll we picked the most controversial issue currently running through the Android communities; who do you feel is in the wrong regarding Apple’s latest lawsuit against HTC? While most of us are active Android promoters I assumed that we would get some people who see this from a legal point-of-view. Nope, apparently we are all unified in saying that Apple is in the wrong and that their patents stifle progress in the mobile industry. Not one person said “HTC is Wrong“!
My favourite part about sifting through the approximate 100 responses was the people that answered “Other”, just so they could have their own personal say. Here are just 2 of the responses I got, “f@$% Apple” and “Apple and Jobs are all b*****”. Obviously, this a strong issue for most and not something the Android community is taking lightly.
Download the Android Guys App and stay tuned for next week’s poll!

Like Your Nexus One? Don’t Wear Your Skinny Jeans!
Mar 5th
Attention Nexus One users: do not sit on your Nexus One! The Nexus seen above, owned by Crave UK, just randomly cracked while being charged. According to HTC’s technical support, the damage seen above could not be caused by charging, but by “putting a phone in a tight pair of jeans and sitting down.” HTC is also saying that it will cost around $270 to fix a cracked screen! Has this happened to any of you out there? If it did, did it happen while charging? Leave comments below.
