So, the screenshot I show above isn’t actually CyanogenMod Pie, but some Paranoid Android Pie. But, beginning yesterday, March 25th, “the two patches that enable this functionality were merged” so we should see this in upcoming CM nightlies. I used Pie back when it was first implemented in PA, and loved the look of my Galaxy Nexus with an expanded… Read more
Today we’re checking out the CruzerLite Franco Kernel TPU Case for the Samsung Galaxy Nexus. I’m reviewing this case on a Sprint Galaxy Nexus, which I hear has slightly different dimensions than a GSM unlocked GNex, but I’m told that doesn’t matter. CruzerLite’s cases will apparently fit both. This case fits my device great. I’ve also been told… Read more
We’ve had a lot of excitement lately with 2013′s flagship devices being announce and even reviews for the new HTC One are rolling out. We at DroidDog just got out hands on the HTC One X+ for the first time. Better late than never right? Now, I’ve read a few reviews for the HTC One X+, and most of them seem to end up being comparative reviews to… Read more
HTC’s Android overlay, Sense, catches a lot of grief for being a heavy addition to the stock experience. I recently reviewed the HTC One X+ and in reality for this device, Sense did not ruining my experience with the device. I like my device and the way I interact with it to look nice, and HTC’s widgets have always kind of made me slightly jealous…. Read more
Falcon Pro has been receiving A LOT of publicity lately. Unfortunately it’s not because it’s a fantastic Twitter client (it is), but because of Twitter’s policies for third party clients and their 100K token limit. I really respect Falcon Pro’s dev Joaquim Vergès for how hard he’s worked to keep this app going. I love Falcon Pro. I think its… Read more
Today we’re reviewing the smoke colored CruzerLite Androidified Clone Army TPU case for the Nexus 7. The case has a translucent smoke color which ends up looking pretty dark when on the black back of the Nexus 7 (not a bad thing). It has a matte finish where the clone army of Android Andys are and a gloss finish around the edges. If you hold it in… Read more
NVIDIA came to play today, in a day that will be filled with announcements, by letting their Tegra 4i and i500 modem out of the bag officially. The NVIDIA i500 modem was previewed at CES and officially announced today, but the Tegra 4i is the real potential game changer. The Tegra 4i will be NVIDIA’s first integrated Tegra LTE processor and is… Read more
It’s Friday. If you’re reading this, hopefully work’s over and you can relax. A lot of tech and mobile news has happened this week. There has been a lot to take in. One thing we’ve been thinking about and discussing here at DroidDog is button layout. We’re not really talking about the order the buttons are in here, but we’re talking about what… Read more
After 24 hours with the AT&T HTC One X+, here are my first impressions of the device: I’m going to start off with things I really like and move to the don’t likes. First, this device is fast. The One X+ sports a quad-core 1.7 GHz NVIDIA Tegra 3 AP37 chipset and it’s no slouch. I’ve used the Tegra 3 with the Nexus 7 for a while now and… Read more
After Android 4.2.2 rolled out for every other current Nexus device that’s non-carrier based, it’s finally the Nexus 4′s turn. The build number is for the new ROM is JDQ39, which is the same was what we’re seeing on the other Nexus devices.
