HTC has confirmed that it will be introducing a new microphone to its new HTC One to sidestep a dispute with Nokia. As we reported earlier this week, the handset’s existing high-amplitude microphone supplied by STMicroelectronics was designed exclusively for Nokia and should not have been sold to rival smartphone makers.

HTC One handsets that have already been built with this microphone are safe, and they have not been hit with a preliminary injunction as first thought.

We told you it was coming, and it’s finally here. Subatomic Studios has released Fieldrunners 2 for Android in the Google Play Store, and it’s priced at $3.

Here’s some of what you can expect:

The popular to-do list application Remember The Milk got a much-needed update today – hurrah! – which brings a completely redesigned UI and support for Android tablets. It also makes some other minor improvements and addresses several bugs.

There are a few options for keyboards on Android, buy Swype has been one of the most popular over the last few years. Now, it’s finally ready to get out of beta and into primetime.

The developers of Swype, Nuance, announced today that they are dropping the “beta” tag from Swype with the latest version 1.5 update. Swype 1.5 doesn’t really have any big new features, other than a little UI polishing and better Dragon Mobile Assistant tie-ins, but Nuance is going to start charging for it.

Apple’s iOS isn’t customizable like Android. To get to the core of the operating system, very talented hackers have to create what is called a jailbreak. One of the brightest and most prolific minds in the jailbreak scene has been Nicholas Allegra, better known as “comex.” Allegra created JailbreakMe, a web-based jailbreak tool that was used to crack multiple version of iOS throughout the years.

But for the past couple of years, Allegra has been quiet in the hacking community. The reason for his code of silence is the company he’s been working for. Apple hired him as an intern last year, and he left in October after failing to reply to a company email.

Now Allegra is going to bat for the other team. Yesterday he announced plans to intern at Google. He’ll start in a few weeks. One would assume he’ll be working on beefing up security for Android, but he ruled out the possibility on his Twitter. ” I don’t like it enough to ever want to hack it,” he said.
