Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1

Samsung’s just let us know that the Android 3.2 update for the Galaxy Tab 10.1 has begun to push out again. You’ll recall how a couple weeks ago the initial update led to Wifi connectivity problems for some, and the update was pulled. That bug has been squashed, and the update’s good to go again.

If you skipped the update the first time around, you can download it over the  [Read More...]

Skyrocket OTA

If you’re rocking the new LTE Samsung Skyrocket on AT&T, you might want to check for an OTA update.  An OTA to Android 2.3.6 is pushing out now, and we manually checked on our review unit (Menu>Settings>Software update>Check for updates) and sure enough, one was waiting.  We’re not quite sure what was changed here — we know that 2.3.6 addressed a bug in Google voice search, but we imagine Samsung and AT&T  [Read More...]

Android Market

Here’s the latest version of the Android Market. Looks mostly like the Android Market you have now, but it’s not. It’s better. It’s newer. And therefore better.

Finally, the Gingerbread update for the HTC ThunderBolt (that’d be the one we told you about this morning) is once again pushing out. This is the second time Gingerbread’s headed to the ThunderBolt; it was pulled earlier because of some bugs, including by not limited to voicemail.

R2-D2 Droid 2

Word on the streets — and in our Droid 2 forums — is that the R2-D2 version of the Droid 2 is getting its Android 2.3 Gingerbread update today, just shy of the anniversary of its launch. Dunno how many more updates we can expect to get out of this thing, and that’s a shame, be cause it really is in first-class condition. We’ve worked with him before.

The HTC Droid Incredible has been one of the most beloved Android devices on Verizon.

For a while, everyone was afraid the good ol’ Droid Incredible was not going to get a Gingerbread update. Incredulous!

That was until Verizon posted OTA update details on the HTC Droid Incredible’s  [Read More...]
