I rooted my Samsung Galaxy S2 today and the actual rooting process went great. Afterwards I made a complete NANDroid backup with ClockworkMod Recovery and I also did a backup of all my apps with Titanium Backup – since I now enjoyed root access Titanium could also backup all the Market links. However, after I [...]

Surround any link to an Android app in the Web Market or on AppBrain.com with “qr” “/qr” in brackets, and this plugin will create a clickable QR code for that app. You can also just supply the name of the app, but the first two methods are recommended. The appearance of the QR codes can [...]

I’m not entirely sure what to say about this feverishly dancing Android and its mighty moves, but seeing is believing. The title of the video on YouTube is “Android on crack…lol”, and it’s pretty descriptive. I can’t stop laughing watching this clip – it’s wonderfully offbeat.

Many people, particularly Android purists, of course, frown upon custom Android user-interfaces. They want the vanilla Android experience – Android the way Google made it, and usually think custom UIs look bad, are bloated, poorly made, and slow down the OS update process. In a way I agree, and I haven’t used HTC’s Sense interface [...]

Unlike HTC, LG is a phone manufacturer that seems to include a different set of wallpapers on most of its handsets. Several of these wallpapers are quite nice as well: both the LG Optimus and the Optimus 2X have a few gems. But the default LG Revolution wallpapers are probably the best ones yet from [...]

I won’t write much about Stellar Escape here: the first game from Swedish newcomer Orange Agenda, because the demo video below does a pretty good job showing what it’s about. What I can say is this: entertaining gameplay, great on-screen controls, excellent graphics using the Unity 3D engine, and OpenFeint integration with online leaderboards. There [...]

About two months ago, I contacted Steve Albright – the developer behind the task switcher Clutch. I just wanted to thank him for what I personally thought was a fine app that I had used since it first was released.

Apple’s commercials for its mobile devices are usually full of buzzwords, exaggerations and people looking possessed and/or born-again. I personally think they’re a bit creepy. Late night talk show host Conan O’Brien decided to make his own version of the iPad 2 launch video – a more honest one, if you will. I have also [...]

Catch Notes is my favorite notes app for Android, and it’s also one of the apps I use most often regardless of category. I know that there are several excellent apps for transferring links and other information between your phone and your desktop computer and vice versa, but Catch Notes is so convenient to use [...]
