Facebook pushed out an update yesterday, and while early reports say the app still “sucks,” they’ve added support for front-facing cameras, dropped support for Eclair and below, and included various bug fixes. The Facebook app for Android has long been a thorn in Facebook’s side with close to 800,000 1-star reviews and this latest version appears to fall short of expectations.
Samsung is a proud sponsor of the 2012 Olympic games, so you know what that means, don’t you? Commercials! Naturally, you can expect the majority of Samsung’s Olympic commercial spots to feature their new flagship Samsung Galaxy S III device, and why wouldn’t they? It’s an amazing phone, and one that coincidentally was designed for humans <—insert smiley face.
Verizon has announced the launch of GameTanium, a subscription based gaming service, for select Verizon Android phones and tablets. For a monthly fee of $5.99, Verizon customers will have unlimited access to more than 100 Android smartphone games and more than 50 tablet games, including hits like Doodle God, Fruit Ninja and World of Goo. While I’m not a fan of subscription services, if GameTanium stays up-to-date with the latest hit Android games, it could save users the hassle of trying to figure out what games to buy, as well as save them a bit of money.
We simply love wallpapers. They’re one of the first changes we make to our Android devices and often represent our moods, interests, or wicked alter egos. They’re as unique as the individuals who use them and while some people pick one and stick with it, others change them more often than a teenager’s Facebook status. Each day we’re going to feature a free wallpaper for you to download and use on your Android device. Depending on your device, you may want to use your favorite photo editing software to resize the image for a better fit. Once that’s done, apply and enjoy. Your homescreen can thank us later. Cheers!
You read that right, Sprint has finally unleashed a twister of LTE pockets in and around the Kansas City area. They may be mere corn kernels compared to the likes of Verizon and AT&T but it’s a start — and one that I’m sure will have Sprint customers skipping down the yellow brick road.
