Apple could have had his big day or two to take the spotlight and make the competition look bad with its new iPhone 4.0 and 4 luxury IOS, but Motorola is not going to sit there and just take. Sanjay Jha & Friends are taking all they have in the smart phone and call all bets publicly stated intention of the company to launch an Android device with a 2 GHz processor later this year.

So, Motorola is planning a new device that is two times faster than the iPhone and the fourth fastest most capable netbooks (running at 1.6GHz or slower processor, that is). It is clear to see what is hellomoto vision for the coming years in the mobile industry, and the company intends to be at the forefront of this assault superphones.

This statement came out of his mouth yesterday Jha Executive Club of Chicago, and spoke of his vision of the future with a focus on high-capacity smart phones that occupy the site, and be primarily responsible for the disappearance, the mobile computing devices such as laptops and netbooks (wouThis includes but IPADE ld?). That naturally led him to share this gold nugget of information.

But there is another xutador. Another anonymous executives said Motorola Tech conceivable that this powerful new device include essentially all that is "technologically possible" on any smart phone today. Included a gyroscope and a powerful new NVIDIA Tegra-based graphics processor with full hardware acceleration full Flash 10.1. Oh yeah, this executive also spoke about the video output HD 720p, the resolution of high definition screen and the camera with more than 5 MP. This has already Drooling.

So what does this mean to you, the consumer is closed on the iPhone 4? Could this be enough to influence in any direction?

If Motorola really goes with it superphone that very possibly could appear as a new droid (or similar brand) for the holidays. It would make sense, although it is too early to say whether or not it will be exclusively on Verizon. No matter what, news like this is what makes me so excited for the future. We have a lot of great things coming, and we're barely scratchingthe surface of what is really possible in the future.

It is conceivable that through Tech, through KnowYourCell

At the moment, Sony Ericsson has only three Android devices (the X10, X10 and X10 Mini Mini Pro), but I'm sure more will be announced this year. We have already informed the next Walkman phone Android, and now we are hearing that Sony Ericsson is also preparing a smartphone Android 5-inches.

Said smartphone also has a full QWERTY keyboard and the screen tilted up (the display of the Nokia N97).

According to the Chinese forum, the SE 5-inch handset running Android 2.1 and it might have something to do with the rumored PSP phone.

If this is true is likely to compete with the likes of Dell Streak, instead of the regular smartphones. Now we expect Sony Ericsson to get some official details about the phone (if any).

The last time I heard about it, without notice, Verizon Motorola Shadow Droid (which can also be called Xtreme Motorola) was running Android 2.1. However, according to some new details revealed by Droid life, the Shadow / Xtreme is already running Android 2.2 – if this is true, the receiver is almost certain that Frøya at launch.

Other interesting details: the smartphone homescreens 9 and has allegedly, contrary to earlier rumors, do not use MOTOBLUR.

There are also two new photos showing the Shadow:

Verizon may launch the Motorola Shadow Droid / Xtreme in July. Until then, the largest U.S. airline will struggle to meet the demand of another impressive Droid – The Incredible HTC.

When you give your best and newest phone to a few thousands of developers, you should be prepared that the device will be hacked soon.

And that's exactly what happened when Google gave Sprint 4G during the same EVO I / O conference last month. The phone is based on a few hours. But really needed to know what they are doing to unlock EVO 4G far.

Well, no. Android Central, with the help of XDA developers has been launched alongside a very good tutorial on how to do it yourself. That with the commercial availability of the morning Sprint 4G EVO, could not come at better time.

But there is one more thing, when you make a mobile phone into a crowd of developers hacking obsessed. Especially if you're getting with the underlying operating system, locking it up and adapt to the needs of your network.

You must ensure that your changes do not undermine the basic security of the device. And it seems that Sprint screwed up the great in it.

According to Matthew Mastracci Grock. As one of the guys behind the root of the original EVO 4G, Sprint customizations really bad the underlying Android OS:

Android Sprint customizations are so bad that any Android application at random (with permission or not), basically you can access all your data with very little work.

It seems that the same problem also affects Hero Sprint HTC devices too.

Now, do not fear too soon, and do not cancel your order EVO 4G yet. The problem is not so bad really. Nobody will be able to take care of your phone via 3G, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth or by sending some SMS smart. You must install a malicious application to receive a blow.

So if you get all your job applications through Android Market, you must be a bit strong. And Matthew, Sprint has been very sensitive about security these complaints and is working hard on a patch.

However, if you marked it "Allow install applications not related to the market" option in their EVO 4G, and are about to install some third party application, make sure you trust the source and know you are creating.

The CDMA HTC Hero (sold in the U.S. through Sprint) has received its Android version 2.1 and now is the time for the GSM version of the smartphone (released almost a year) to get rid of 'Android 1.6, too.

HTC has officially announced that starting today, the owners of Hero Taiwan Android 1.2 update will receive notification in the air.

We hope that Android 1.2 will reach owners of Hero in other Asian and European markets soon.

Whereas the hero was launched in 2009, probably will not update to Android 2.2 Frøya (a desire), but has yet to Android 1.2 users happy. After all, around 1.6 phones do not update at all.
