Google 2 – Modders 0. Though it previously took a hands-off approach regarding hacks, Google has been a little more forceful with keeping users in line. First there was Cyanogate, and now the company has blocked use of Google Maps Navigation outside of the United States.

Looks like Android 2.0 finally made it overseas. The MILESTONE, the brother to the DROID, has finally become available for purchase via Expansys. The retailer has an exclusive right to sell the device throughout December, so for right now this is the only way to get the phone, if you’ve ...

If you haven’t seen our discussion regarding Android’s presence in Europe, you should. It’s a surprise to us, as Android fans, that our Google-created OS isn’t raking in the fans over there across the pond, but let’s face it: there’s stiff competition, from ...

We saw that leaked HTC roadmap the other day and were given a pretty good idea as to what we can expect to come from HTC in 2010. All things considered, it looks like we have a few decent handsets to look forward to seeing come available. But in the meantime we are stuck waiting [...]

The other day I mentioned the update that was available for the SugarSync app and noted the nice features that SugarSync offers. Well, they are not the only “access your files from the cloud” service that is worth mentioning. The other, or at least the other that I am familiar with ...

Yelp fans take note, your Android app is now available in the Market. The app, which was released yesterday afternoon is available for those in the US, Canada, UK and Ireland. And yes, it is a free download but it does appear to be missing a few features that you may be looking for.

First, let me just say that I wish I could control the human language as well as some of these companies. The fact that “coming weeks” was reported just a matter of days ago, and now we’ve got word that the update is starting to roll out to devices today, makes me think Verizon ...

It’s several days later than I originally planned, but I finally got my hands on a Nook. Sadly, it was an in-store demo unit because I was late to pre-order the device and fell victim to unchecked, rampant misinformation provided to me by several employees at my local Barnes & Noble ...

There really are other networks out there besides CDMA and GSM, and it looks like Android is all set to take it all over. The image shows what could be Motorola’s first iDen-based device; and while we’re sure this won’t be a device to lure people away from their CDMA or GSM ...

Androinica.com has quite a few European readers, so I’d like to pose this question to them: what do you think of Android?
The reason I ask is because IDC released a report saying that Europeans are not too keen on Android devices. According to IDC, Android’s market share increased ...

You know what? This is pretty fantastic. That’s all I’ve got right now. These devices, even the most simplistic ones, look just good enough to get my saliva glands going crazy. I can’t wait for next year, especially considering there are still more phones we know about that ...

I am still determined to find and actually purchase a tablet style device, and although I am not hard set on it running Android, that would be nice. I was pretty close to pulling the trigger on the Camangi WebStation the other day, but after finding out that the early bird discount was only $10 ...

SugarSync for Android has been around since the summer months, well the end of July to be a little more specific and although we have seen some updates over time this latest is pretty interesting.

I will first state that finding out any successful, or even remotely successful phone will be getting a follow device is not all that much reason to celebrate. However in the case of the HTC Hero it is worth mentioning — mainly because it does not feel like it has been around for all that ...
