BlackBerry Playbook gets hacked Android Market support

By Michael Crider
on 6 Dec, 2011

We don't cover the BlackBerry Playbook here on Android Community because, well, it's a BlackBerry. But some recent community mods may change that, at least after a fashion. IntoMobile reports that the latest rage amongst Playbook modders is rooting via a tool called Dingleberry (no comments form the peanut gallery, please). It turns out that if you root the latest version of the Playbook's Beta software, it's possible to use the Android emulator software therein to run just about any Android app you like - including the Android Market and other Google apps.

Oh yea, nothing beats playing the old school game of UNO to bring back some good ol memories right on my Android phone or tablet. UNO by Gameloft was updated back in August with full HD graphics and support for Android tablets but sadly it was $2.99 and that threw many potential players away. Today Gameloft has released the extremely popular game FREE in the Android Market.

Samsung Exynos 5250 running at 2GHz coming by Q2 next year

We've been dreaming about it, but not quite sure when we would see the first Android device clocked at 2GHz (officially of course). The Samsung Exynos chips running at 1.0GHz, 1.2GHz, and 1.5GHz have functioned amazingly well in their Galaxy S II line, and knowing we should see the 2.0GHz SoC in a future tablet is definitely good news. Samsung was very clear this SoC would be geared towards high-end tablets, but maybe we'll find it in a few smartphones too.

The Entertainment Software Rating Board is something plenty of parents are familiar with. As kids I'm sure many remember or still deal with these same rating being plastered on everything we buy for Xbox, PC's, Mac, and more. They are the group that helps moms save their children from bloody or bad age-appropriate games and things on the interwebs.

5 things Android Community is thankful for this year

By Michael Crider

Tomorrow is Thanksgiving in the United States, which means a day full of hearty food, football and beating that crazy difficult dungeon in Skyrim spending quality time with friends and family. Our team of writers and editors is taking the day off, so we figured we'd leave you with a festive bit of good cheer for your spirited consideration. (Technically we've got one UK correspondent, but we're pretty sure he takes the opportunity to skive off and laugh at the colonials every November.) So, without further ado: five things we're thankful for in the Android world, and one for which we definitely are not.

Ask not for whom the bell tolls, it tolls for... Mario? As predicted, revenue from mobile games on the iOS App Store and Android Market are crushing their single-function competition, earning an estimated 58% of United States portable gaming revenue, according to Flurry. Take note: that's not individual app sales, that's total revenue, giving iOS and Android combined a 1.9 billion dollar share of the 3.3 billion dollar gaming pie. The percentage of revenue going to smartphones and tablets has nearly doubled in a single year.

By Cory Gunther

Whoa this came out of no where although is nothing new. SHADOWGUN, a game I recently reviewed and loved, is apparently set to receive some multiplayer action from the awesome developer MadFinger Games. Being able to play this graphic intensive and awesome game on my NVIDIA Tegra 2 tablet as a multiplayer game would truly be awesome and I can't wait to see what they have in store.

By Michael Crider
on 28 Oct, 2011

Say what you will about GameStop, as many have and will, but you can accuse them of being anything less than shrewd business. To that end they're expanding their mostly console and portable video game stock to include Android tablets from Samsung, Asus and Acer, starting in a few select stores today. The tablets will be pre-loaded with seven free games including Dead Space and Madden NFL 2012.
