The ROM from the upcoming T-Mobile G2 recently got leaked, and these six new HTC homescreen wallpapers were extracted from it. There were other wallpapers as well, but only backgrounds we’ve seen many times before on other HTC Sense handsets. If more new preloaded wallpapers are made available once the G2 is released, they’ll be [...]

Back in May, Gameloft released a series of games for Android to mixed reactions. On one hand, the company was praised for the impressive graphics its lavish games featured, but at the same time Gameloft received criticism for not making the titles available in the Android Market. To add insult to injury, Gameloft initially had [...]

There are already many superb games for Android, and there’s no doubt in my mind that it soon will become one of the world’s greatest mobile gaming platforms. One can only imagine what the games will look like at the end of the year, when they can be powered by devices with dual-core 1.5 GHz [...]

The port, courtesy of xda-developer’s member rolle3k, is mainly intended for the Nexus One, although it worked fine on my HTC Desire as well. I loved the look of the icons in the app [...]
