AT&T and Verizon are pure evil: They are the only two carriers in the world to lock down their Samsung Galaxy S 4 models. This would generally mean that extensive software modifications would be impossible, but thanks to some amazing developers, that is no longer the case!

As we all know, AT&T and Verizon tragically and maliciously locked the bootloaders of their Galaxy S 4 models.

These devices are virtually identical to the originals, with the… Read more

The HTC First was released with a lot riding on it. It was HTC’s only other current gen device released, aside from the HTC One, and it was their second attempt at a Facebook phone.

Being a Verizon customer has been quite eventful, huh? Not only did the network deny its customers the popular HTC One, but when all the other carriers released the Samsung Galaxy S 4, Verizon had only announced pre-orders and a release date that was over a month away.

In comparison the Galaxy S III took around 50 days to… Read more
Rugged phones may not be so popular, but it looks like waterproof higher end devices are starting to be! To compete with the Sony Xperia Z and the unreleased Samsung Galaxy S 4 Active, LG has unveiled the Optimus GJ.

The AT&T LG Optimus G Pro has only recently come out, and it’s already on a massive sale. Unfortunately, not everyone can take advantage of this sale. It’s only available in Fry’s, and to make things even harder, it’s only available in retail locations. So if you live around a Fry’s, this may be a great deal for you. Otherwise, we’re sorry.
