T Mobile News & Phone Reviews From Cell Phone Signal » Alltel http://www.cellphonesignal.com Just another WordPress weblog Wed, 08 Feb 2012 17:23:42 +0000 en hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.2.1 Google Nexus Two is real … with Galaxy S flavor http://www.cellphonesignal.com/google-nexus-two-is-real-with-galaxy-s-flavor/ http://www.cellphonesignal.com/google-nexus-two-is-real-with-galaxy-s-flavor/#comments Fri, 29 Oct 2010 14:31:08 +0000 t-marco http://www.cellphonesignal.com/?p=5539

Gizmodo got some information about the new Google phone, Nexux Two. This time will not be made my HTC, it will be Samsung with a Galaxy S look.

“It’s black and shiny, built with glossy plastic. Up close, though, it’s “got this curve to it.” While the screen, which our source thinks is the same 4-inch AMOLED affair from the Galaxy series, is flat, the front is “sort of concave” with hard edges. And the back is curved. The tapering makes it feel thinner than Galaxy S, though it might be about the same thickness. “It feels really similar to the Galaxy S in a lot ways.”

Externally, the main difference from all of the current Galaxy S variants in the US is that it’s got a front-facing camera, and it’s running a stock build of Android that was still “really buggy.”

Google has just  expanded Android Market paid app sales to 20 new international markets, promising to add another 18 countries over the next two weeks. According to Android Developer Ecosystem manager Eric Chu, support for paid apps now spans across nations including Canada, Russia, Australia, Brazil, Mexico, South Korea and Taiwan.

Originally nine countries were allowed to market paid android Apps. These original nations included Italy, France, Japan, Netherlands, UK, Spain, Germany, and Austria and needless to say, the United States of America.

But here is the trick, if you live out of those countries and you want to get paid applications, you only need to do is get a sim card from one of those countries (don’t worry if the phone number of the sim card does not work). Market only sees the country code of the sim card to give you access to paid applications. I did it and works the same, just make sure after installing all the paid applications you want, switch back to your own sim card.
Enjoy!

Just today Microsoft has announced the availability of the new Windows Mobile 6.5 upgrade to some WM phones in the States.  The list? very short  but the way. HTC Dash, Snap and Touch Pro2, and the Samsung Jack and Epix.. hold on?… did they day HTC Dash 3G.? Seams the T-Mobile Dash 3G will get the upgrade soon, after the other carriers will get it first.

winmo65-update_2

Only phone that run WM 6.1 can upgrade to 6.5.  Microsoft says more devices may be added at a later date. HTC is stepping up in the biggest way, with the HTC Pure, HTC Imagio, HTC Ozone and HTC Tilt 2 arriving today or in the next couple of weeks. Samsung’s also warming to WinMo with the Samsung Intrepid. As for carriers, all the majors except T-Mobile are on this bandwagon, so you’ll have AT&T, Sprint and Verizon Wireless to choose from, for now…

Probably, the HTC Touch Pro 2 for T-Mobile will get the upgrade.. cross your fingers guys!.
