Verizon HTC Droid Incredible Free Download Software Apps Games

April 15th, 2010

HTC Droid Incredible announced by Verizon Wireless will hit retail on April 29. The company will soon be accepting pre-orders. It has been known for some time that Verizon and HTC were conspiring to develop and launch a CDMA Android handset packing all the heat of the Nexus One and more; in February, we knew that handset to be the HTC Incredible. As of today, we not only know that it will be going to retail as the HTC Droid Incredible by Verizon, but we also know the complete list of specifications.

The HTC Incredible offers a 3.7″ AMOLED display with a WVGA resolution of 480×800. Dimensions for the phone are 4.63″ tall, 2.3″ wide and 0.47″ thick, smaller than the Nexus One in all dimensions save thickness, where it’s 0.02″ beefier.

On the subject of hardware, the Incredible continues to deliver with a 1GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon QSD8650, 512MB RAM, 512MB ROM (320MB free), 8GB onboard storage and a microSDHC slot for up to 32GB of additional space. The handset also offers 802.11b/g/n (an industry first), an 8MP camera with LED flash, A-GPS and Bluetooth 2.1+EDR. Trackball haters will also be pleased to learn that the trackpad is optical.

Moving to software, the Incredible will hit the shelves with the complete Android 2.1 application stack and unfettered access to the Android app store. Further, prior videos of the Incredible have confirmed that the handset will run the newest version of HTC’s lauded Sense UI. The move to include Sense forces HTC and Verizon to drop the “Google Experience” honorific, but that’s an immaterial decision given the drastic improvements Sense makes to an otherwise bog standard Android install. As a final note on the software, Adobe Flash Lite 4.0 is supported out of the box, while Adobe Flash 10.1 should follow when the binaries exit beta.

The expected retail release date of the HTC Incredible by Verizon Wireless is April 29, and prices were not available at press time.

HTC EVO 4G Free Download Software Apps Games

March 24th, 2010

Sprint and HTC Corporation today announced summer availability of the world’s first 3G/4G Android handset, HTC EVO 4G exclusively from Sprint. HTC EVO 4G delivers a multimedia experience at 4G speeds that is second to none, making it possible to download music, pictures, files, or videos in seconds – not minutes – and watch streaming video on the go with one of the largest pinch-to-zoom displays, at 4.3 inches, in the wireless industry.

Sprint 4G offers a faster wireless experience than any other U.S. national wireless carrier, and Sprint is the only national carrier offering wireless 4G service today in 27 markets. Sprint 4G delivers download speeds up to 10 times faster than 3G1, giving HTC EVO 4G the fastest data speeds of any U.S. wireless device available today.

“Sprint continues to lead the 4G revolution as we introduce HTC EVO 4G to give our customers an experience that is unlike anything available in wireless to date,” said Dan Hesse, Sprint CEO. “Not only is this feature-rich device incredible on our Sprint 3G network, but Sprint 4G speeds will take mobile multimedia, including live video streaming, gaming and picture downloads, to a whole new level.”

Customers will be able to purchase HTC EVO 4G through all Sprint channels and through national retail partners, RadioShack, Best Buy and Walmart, this summer. Pricing will be announced at a later date. Pre-registration begins today at www.sprint.com/evo.

A device beyond compare
HTC EVO 4G delivers a robust list of features, including a 1GHz Qualcomm® Snapdragon™ processor ensuring a smooth and quick user experience. With dual cameras – an 8.0 megapixel auto-focus camera with HD-capable video camcorder and a forward-facing 1.3 megapixel camera – HTC EVO 4G unleashes the ability to create, stream and watch video that far surpasses expectations of what is possible on a phone today.

With built-in mobile hotspot functionality, HTC EVO 4G allows up to eight Wi-Fi enabled devices to share the 4G experience. Users can easily share an Internet connection on the go with a laptop, camera, music player, game unit, video player, or any other Wi-Fi enabled device.

With integrated HD video capture and 4G speeds, HTC EVO 4G makes slow uploads and grainy video a thing of the past. Now, it is possible to post high-quality video to YouTube™ or Facebook, or share moments in real time over the Internet live, via Qik. After these videos have been captured, it is easy to share them on an HDTV via an HDMI cable (sold separately).

The custom Web browser is optimized for HTC EVO 4G’s large display and Sprint 4G speeds to deliver a full, no-compromise Internet experience. Adobe Flash technology ensures that rich Internet content, such as embedded video and animation, are displayed the way they are meant to be seen. Pinch-to-zoom and automatic text reflowing provide easy Web page views.

HTC EVO 4G features the newest version of the highly acclaimed HTC Sense user experience. Along with all of the HTC Sense features first introduced on HTC Hero, HTC EVO 4G adds a number of new features, including Friend Stream, which aggregates multiple social communication channels including Facebook and Twitter™ into one organized flow of updates; a “Leap” thumbnail view to easily switch between home screen “panels;” the ability to download new, interactive widgets; and a “polite” ringer, which quiets the ringing phone once lifted up.

“HTC and Sprint have a strong history of working together to bring consumers technologies and advancements that make their lives easier,” said Peter Chou, CEO of HTC. “We believe that the HTC EVO 4G represents the best of Sprint and the best of HTC working together to bring an unmatched device to the U.S. This combination of HTC and Sprint innovation will allow people to do even more while on the go, faster than ever on the Sprint 4G network.”

Experience Android at 4G
HTC EVO 4G, the world’s first 3G/4G Android handset, features the latest iteration of the increasingly popular Android platform. Leveraging the Android 2.1 platform, HTC EVO 4G can deliver a wide array of useful new features:

  • Android 2.1 enables a new way to search with pictures instead of words. Google Goggles™ works with everything from books, DVDs and barcodes to landmarks, logos, artwork and even wine labels. A picture taken of the Golden Gate Bridge returns all of the information anyone would need to know about the structure. By just taking a picture of several restaurant options, HTC EVO 4G will provide restaurant reviews to ensure the best choice.
  • Text messaging and email composition feature built-in voice-to-text technology. By simply pressing a microphone button on the screen, messages can be composed by just speaking, making keeping in touch faster and easier than ever.
  • Through Android Market™, HTC EVO 4G users have access to thousands of useful applications, widgets and games to download and install on their phone, with many more to come.

In addition to today’s Android apps, the performance of which will be enhanced by 4G speed, application developers will be introducing new apps that take advantage of 4G power in new ways – games and communications tools and other apps that bring together video, presence and location simultaneously, and capabilities that haven’t yet been imagined. For example, an application developer might create an app that allows a customer to simultaneously watch a streaming sporting event while pulling down stats and conducting a video chat with a friend.

A Sprint 4G developer guide is available today from the Sprint ADP Web site http://developer.sprint.com. The Sprint 4G developer guide explains how to develop on an Android 2.1 handset and how to take advantage of 4G and unique hardware/software capabilities, including how to use a forward-facing camera in an app; how to use HDMI output; and how to build in network detection (3G, 4G or Wi-Fi) to optimize quality of data in an app. The Sprint 4G developer also will include sample apps and source code that highlight these features. It will supplement the Android 2.1 SDK.  As a charter member of the Open Handset Alliance™, Sprint is actively engaged with the Android community. Sprint has employed an open Internet approach, and the Sprint Application Developer Program has been providing tools for third-party developers since Sprint first launched the Wireless Web on its phones in 2001.

“Sprint and HTC have come together to propel the Android platform into the 4G world with the introduction of HTC EVO 4G,” said Andy Rubin, vice president, mobile platforms at Google. “The Android platform was developed to give people unmatched mobile connectivity to the Internet. By combining this vision with the promise of Sprint’s first-to-market 4G technology, HTC EVO 4G makes accessing thousands of applications from Android Market, using Google™ services like Google Goggles, Google Earth™ and the all-new Gesture Search, or simply browsing the Web faster, easier and more enjoyable than ever before.”

HTC Incredible leaked

February 9th, 2010

One of the upcoming mobile phones that should land on the market with Google’s Android operating system on board is the HTC Incredible, which has just emerged in a series of leaked photos, as well as in a video that is meant to offer us a glimpse at what it can deliver. The handset hasn’t been officially unveiled, though rumors on it already emerged into the wild.

The upcoming HTC Incredible is expected to arrive on the market on the airwaves of Verizon Wireless, and is said to come pre-loaded with the latest iteration of Google’s Android operating system, namely with Android 2.1, which is currently available only on the Nexus One by HTC. Moreover, it seems that the Incredible should also boast a Snapdragon processor inside, which is expected to be coupled with 256MB of RAM.

Other specifications of the mobile phone also include the presence of a 3.5 or 3.7-inch touchscreen display that boasts a WVGA resolution, and which is said to probably be AMOLED. Considering that HTC already opted for this type of screen with Nexus One, there are great chances that the Incredible will also include the technology. The HTC Sense solution should also be present with the device, it seems.

According to pocketnow, the source that provided the photos and video with the handset also said a few words on it, such as the fact that the touchscreen display seems to be “very vibrant,” and that the phone is “fast, really fast” due to the Snapdragon processor inside. Moreover, it also said that the HTC Incredible was expected to arrive with an optical mouse pointer placed at the bottom of it, and that it would include dual LED flash on the back.
