Droid X root achieved
Published on Thursday, July 22, 2010 by Phil Nickinson Looking to root the Droid X? You can now do so. The lads at AllDroid broke down the biggest phone still standing, and you can now access all the secret chambers of its inner ... Oh, what's root, you ask? Check out our handy Root FAQ here.This still doesn't quite kill off all the FUD regarding the bootloader. We're talking root access, not custom ROMs ju...
Motorola Cliq 2.1 leak — yes, Blur and Eclair now play together
Published on Wednesday, July 21, 2010 by Jerry Hildenbrand Your eyes aren't playing tricks on you, that's really Android 2.1 (Eclair) + Motoblur running on a Motorola Cliq.  It's not official (of course) but reports are mostly good -- you might have to recreate your Blur account, and it's pretty laggy until everything gets settled in.  You'll have to be rooted and able to install custom ROMs, but a pre-rooted, semi-...
Don’t void your Droid X warranty: The ‘Pull’ tag is for the battery
Published on Wednesday, July 21, 2010 by Phil Nickinson We mentioned in passing the other day that the innards of the Droid X can be a little confusing, so let's do this up right. There's a little tab that sticks out from underneath the Droid X's battery that says "Pull." Now, if your Droid X came with its battery in place, chances are you'll logically pull the tab to remove the battery. That's what I did, and I...
Motorola: Droid X screen issues fixed, didn’t affect many phones
Published on Wednesday, July 21, 2010 by Phil Nickinson This doesn't really fix things if you're one the few whose Droid X screen was a bit borked, but Verizon has acknowledged the existence of "a very small number of Droid X units that have experienced a flickering or banding display." And that's largely what we've expected, as it's not like forums the Internet over lit up with the screams of a million. Mo...
Droid X owners using 5 times more data than other phones, Verizon says
Published on Tuesday, July 20, 2010 by Sean Brunett See that new Droid X in your hand? (No, in your hand. That's Phil's hand up there.) It's sucking down five times more data than its cousins, Verizon business development executive director Jennifer Byrne said at paidContent Mobile's conference today. While on the panel with executives from the BBC, NBA Digital and Zagat, the conversation centered around the incre...
Droid 2 launch now rumored for Aug. 12
Published on Tuesday, July 20, 2010 by Phil Nickinson Because we haven't had a Motorola Droid 2 rumor in the past, oh, six or seven minutes, here comes another: Engadget says it has on good authority that the Droid 2 (which reportedly has been sidelined while the Droid X gets its time in the sun) will see a soft-launch on Aug. 13. It'll then get the full force of Verizon's marketing department starting Aug. 23. That...
Droid 2 pics and news leaked, August release seems imminent
Published on Tuesday, July 20, 2010 by Jerry Hildenbrand It's been another good couple of days for Droid 2 news and leaks, and we love those kinds of days.  To start with, the above shot is a nice semi-non-blurrycam shot of the Droid 2 in all it's qwerty beauty.  This keyboard looks a lot better than the one on it's older brother the OG Droid, let's hope it works and feels as good as it looks.  Add this to th...
Droid X software update arrives; also, some reports of screen problems
Published on Tuesday, July 20, 2010 by Phil Nickinson First the good: The 1.13.604 software update for the Motorola Droid X finally started downloading last night, which means we can finally stop running this picture. Check out the official update thread in our forums. Now, the not as good: There are a few reports (AC Forums, Engadget, Motorola, DroidForums, et al) of Droid X screens g...
Blurrycam pics emerge of a Motorola portrait slider on Verizon
Published on Monday, July 19, 2010 by Kyle Gibb   Well, what do we have here? It seems like Motorola wants to keep pushing hard on the mid-range Android market with this portrait slider, which looks like it will get Verizon's "Droid" branding (or at least the red eye). This could point to some serious hardware, as Verizon has only given it's high-end Android devices the Droid name, while leaving the ...
Multimedia test: Super AMOLED vs. AMOLED vs. LCD
Published on Monday, July 19, 2010 by Phil Nickinson  We've had a ton of touchscreen technology thrown at us in the past year -- hell, in the past several months. We've gone from LCD (liquid crystal display) to OLED (organic light-emitting diode) to AMOLED (active matrix OLED) to the brand-new Super AMOLED, which we saw debuted at Mobile World Congress in February. Each has its merits. OLED and AMOLE...
