Your Sprint HTC Hero questions answered – part 2

Your Sprint HTC Hero questions answered – part 2 I'll be doing my best to get to all of your questions this week, as well as the videos dedicated to the camera and browser. the 10-minute limit on the DroidDog YouTube account (as well as the computer I use to process the videos) limits how much I can do in one day, but stay tuned. Check out parts one and three. EDIT: Pictures can be downloaded through the... Read more »

Your Sprint HTC Hero questions answered – part 1

Your Sprint HTC Hero questions answered – part 1 I already have half of the next video ready to go, so don't worry if I don't get to your question here. Keep 'em coming, folks. I'll do the focused, in-depth stuff within a week, but probably not a lot of it. The camera and browser are coming though. Check out parts two and three.... Read more »

Is HTC birthing a fire-breathing Dragon?

Is HTC birthing a fire-breathing Dragon? Check this out. I don't have any hardware images, but I do have a couple of specs and some screenshots. Nothing in the way of processor or memory, but with a name like Dragon and our source's use of the words "GAME CHANGER," one would hope that this thing will pack a wallop. We have to take this for what it is at the moment; ten screen grabs. But the prospect is... Read more »

Noah gets a meeting with Sprint’s Hero

Noah gets a meeting with Sprint’s Hero It's brief, but hopefully enough to tide you over until a review unit shows up at Noah's door. Maybe if I camp in the bushes outside of his house, I can nab it without him knowing. Or maybe I'll just hire a singing telegram to distract him. Via... Read more »

Noah gets a Tattoo

Noah gets a Tattoo The phone, that is. It's short, but to the point. I'm not super thrilled about using a QVGA resistive screen personally, but if it gets Android to a broader audience, I'll consider it a good thing - if the phone works well.... Read more »

HTC Hero update looks snappy

HTC Hero update looks snappy You've gotta have a Windows box to run the updater, and there is a bit of confusion in the community about what this will do to rooted devices, but if you've got a straight Hero and are a Microsoft customer, now is the time to update. Keep in mind that this will *wipe* your device (factory reset). So back up accordingly! See the update in action (from about a... Read more »

Video of Tattoo running Sense

Video of Tattoo running Sense What an odd juxtaposition of aesthetics we see here: the slick and refined Sense UI housed within a phone that looks like a WinMo device from a couple of years ago. I think HTC would be hard pressed to reign in American Android enthusiasts with this one, as the resistive QVGA display can't stand next to the screen of the superior CDMA Hero launching at $179. But for... Read more »

Sprint’s Hero and “with Google”

Sprint’s Hero and “with Google” I guess it's about time I put together a post regarding the day's news on the CDMA version of Hero, eh? Well, as I'm sure many of you are aware, there is plenty to write about. It all started at at 3:00 am this morning. I was laying in bed, listening to Coast to Coast AM through headphones, and tinkering with my iPod. You know, playing iMobsters, poker, and... Read more »

Touch Dual running Sense

Touch Dual running Sense If imitation is the best form of flattery, than there are three UIs that the entire industry should be studying to no end: that of iPhone's OSX, Pre's webOS, and Hero's Sense. Nearly countless themes, ROMs, and elements inspired by these handsets have sprouted up in unlikely places, and Sense seems to be the greatest source of such buzz at the moment. When people...
