Still using an HTC G1 Phone

Posted onAuthorTruXter

Still using my htc g1. Been a great phone. Onboard memory storage sucks and battery life sucks, but the operating system works great and beat my other phones. Makes my moto and my blackberry look like calculators. The display is large and the keyboard is great for my thumbs.
Will be getting a new droid phone by december 2011, unsure wich one yet though.
How is the g2??? Anyone know?
What android phone is a good step up from the g1?

Posted via Android. Dont mind the typos. I’ll fix them later.

Opera Mini 5

Posted onAuthorTruXter

Installed on blackberry 8100 rim and on G1 android.
I was using opera mini on my lg flip phone and Motorola rizr and blackberry for years before I got my android. Seems my rizr didn’t quite measure up so I had to install version 4.
I’m not too keen on opera on my computer. Feels kinda netscape navigator-ish.

The blackberry install was fast. Use was very smooth. Impressive appearance. Small pop ups look druple like. Could not find settings to change browser color. Navigation and page change smoother and softer than previous versions. Bookmarking has been made easier refreshing and closing ap happens fast with no lock ups.
Blackberry install I give a 10/10

Install for android, was 5 beta.
I’m beyond impressed. This is one sharp looking application. I have yet to see another app look this great. Downside is the menu bar at the bottom uses some of the screen realestate. I’m scared to turn it off, it might not come back. Menu button does nothing. Maybe if I close the bottom navigation bar it will show up in menu area. ( if anyone tested this, let me know results). Navigation bar has a forward and back button with refresh button. You no longer have to hit back button a million times to exit 10 minutes of surfing. This feature needs to be in all programs.
After you install this, do not change your home page. Look at the home page that is provided. You can have basically a bookmarks with thumbnails as your home page. Touch screen is now functional, in my honest opinion better than the default android browser. very fluid with your finger movements.
Again I could not change color or theme.
I give opera mini beta 5 for android a 10/10

Opera 4 for motorolla rizr 9/10

Motorola and Android – Backflip

Posted onAuthorTech Review Man

It was needed.

Motorola BACKFLIP With MOTOBLUR for AT&T

Motorola Really needed this.

This phone looks like a really good phone. Slim with a large screen area.

The full keyboard of this phone puts it above any existing blackberry. That is for texting reasons of course. It’s the all of the add on software you can get, they call them apps. These far exceed the number of hackberry apps. This clearly proves that blackberry should try and dabble with the android system before it is to late.

Motorala builds some very well built phones, mechanically that is. So this software and their eye for design and dependability is a great merger.

The fact they leave the full keyboard in pushable smashable buttons instead of going for just touch (like most of the android phones recently), is probably the largest greatest and most appreciated part of this phone. This phone is the G1  that should have been.I predict this phone being more common than the Moto Razor ever was. To bad it’s currently only on AT&T. If they changed services to anything GSM other than AT&T i would jump to this phone.
