Yesterday at Google I/O, Google announced the new Hangouts. This was a service that replaces Google Talk and the old Hangouts, combining standard chat and video chat into one. It has many new features, like chat history and many more. However, there seems to be a new problem that has nothing to do with Google itself: AT&T is blocking video chatting on… Read more
As promised, we’re giving away, thanks to a great partner at AT&T, one HTC One device. This time around we’re doing something a little more unique, as in we aren’t just going to select a comment at random. So here’s what we are asking: Tell us in 20 words or less your favorite feature on the HTC One and what you want to use it for. That’s it, it’s… Read more
The FCC can often give away to a company’s deep, dark smartphone secrets and that may be especially true in the case of this new Motorola filing. Labeled “XT 1058,” the device is listed with having AT&T-compatible LTE bands, bluetooth 4.0, NFC and other various traits that have us believing this is a high-end smartphone. With the images of a… Read more
I’ve had the HTC First for almost two weeks, and I’ve formed some pretty solid opinions on Facebook Home as it runs on the HTC First. When I initially heard about Facebook home, I thought to myself that I would never use a launcher like that. At the time, I didn’t even have a Facebook app on my personal device, why would I want a launcher? Now that… Read more
With some help from our friends at AT&T, we’re partnering up to give away “one” HTC One smartphone to “one” very lucky winner. This is a silver 32GB variant and it can be yours, if you visit DroidDog Monday afternoon. That’s right, today is just a tease and a look at the box which contains the device which can be yours…if you come back and visit… Read more
Some good news for you Samsung Galaxy S 4 and HTC One fans as the 32GB variant of the former and the Stealth Black color of the latter are now available from AT&T. Our long wait to find a 32GB model of the Galaxy S 4 on any of US carriers is now at an end with a $249 price tag on the death star network herself. With the 16GB model taking some… Read more
Aio Wireless is the newest prepaid carrier in the US, owned by AT&T. It aims to provide the cheaper plans prepaid customers are used to, with two different smartphone plans you can pick from. The $55 a month plan offers unlimited data with a 2GB cap for high speed internet (you’ll be throttled after that), unlimited talk and messaging, and includes… Read more
While T-Mobile may be working to eliminate the smartphone subsidy from the mind of the American wireless industry, AT&T is holding strong to the contract model. That couldn’t be any clearer as they drop the price on the “Facebook phone” HTC First to 99 cents with a two-year contract. The price is good for all four colors and with stock Android… Read more
Two Samsung Galaxy S 4 models are getting updates today, namely the AT&T and the T-Mobile models. Both updates are fairly small OTA updates that will not change the Android version from 4.2.2, but it’s still nice to get some support so early on. The AT&T model gets an update that’s only 21MB and brings the software version up to I337UCUAMDL. There… Read more
There was a big controversy going on about the Samsung Galaxy S 4 only having 8.8GB of memory available out of the 16GB it ships with. Though it has a microSD slot, a lot of content can’t be transferred. Games, Play Store media, and more live only on internal memory, and 8.8GB is very little. TouchWiz has gotten bigger, so why hasn’t memory accommodated… Read more
