Android Donut Build Out: Full Multitouch, Universal Search, Automated Backups AND Better Performance
Google's dropped new code for Android Donut and it sounds too good to be true. People at XDA Developers are reporting it has system-wide multitouch, universal search, text-to-speech, automated backups, a new camera app, and somehow, supposedly better performance. More » -

Google Seals Up Android 'Jailbreak' in Automatic Update
It only took Google about three days to recognize, examine and fix the vulnerability that allowed Android phones to be 'jailbroken', and users should see the fix (update RC30) pushed to their phones over the air during the next few days. From the mouth of the Google: More » -

T-Mobile G1 Unboxed, Ready For Belt Clips Everywhere
Here's the first full unboxing of T-Mobile's G1 Android phone which, despite the rabid anticipation of the device, manages to be pretty boring. We're glad to see it out in the wild, but the lame carrying case and decision to include the trademark uncomfortable HTC earphones, complete with a chunky mic. But as my mother (or probably the head of marketing at T-Mobile) would say, it's what's inside that counts. [TMoNews] More » -

Giz Explains: Ups And Downs Of Developing for Android and iPhone
Whether or not such a two-sided conflict will actually play out in the larger mobile-phone industry, today Android vs. iPhone is the battle raging in the mind of every fanboy, gadget geek—and software developer. Since it has all the right themes for a Tolkien-esque epic whose outcome largely rests with small, furry-footed but pure-hearted creatures—developers—we asked the developers of popular mobile apps such as Pandora, TuneWiki and Instinctiv Shuffle, mostly people working on both platforms, to tell us whether it's better to write for the no-strings-attached open Android or the more popular but catch-prone iPhone. Android may not be an overnight success, but iPhone had better watch its back. More » -

T-Mobile Restricting 3G Data Usage to 1GB a Month Without Penalty
If you examine the fine print on T-Mo's G1 launch page, you will find an interesting bit of information with regard to 3G usage. Apparently, they will be soft-capping data to a slim 1GB a month max in each billing cycle. If you exceed the maximum, the powers that be will strike you down to an anorexic 50 kbps or less until the next cycle begins. Obviously, that is completely intolerable for a power user and apt to send them into a fit of rage. We will just have to wait and see if this policy is actually enforced. [T-Mobile] -

T-Mobile G1 With Google Website Is Live
Jumping the gun a bit, the official site for T-Mobile's—and the world's—first Android phone is live. That "heavy Google branding" we heard about is in full play: HTC's Dream is billed as the "T-Mobile G1 with Google." They're using a neon green jelly font, kind of cool. Most of the site is walled off until tomorrow's press conference, which kicks off at 10:30am Eastern. We'll be bringing it to you live, starting at 9am. The phone itself is not on the website, but here are a bunch of leaks. [T-Mobile] -

Five Reasons to Be Super Psyched About Android (and Five Not to Be)
The launch of Android is the most important event in mobile phones since the release of the iPhone. It could actually be more important, in the long run. Even if it doesn't exceed Google's wildest dreams to become a ubiquitous mobile platform, it's sure to re-stoke innovation in mobile phones as platforms slug it out for supremacy. But besides all that, Android just looks pretty damn cool. Of course, Android isn't all Google-y amazingness—there are some definite reasons to take a step back from the love-in. So here are five reasons why you should be absolutely hyped for Android on Tuesday, and five why, well... More » -

First Shots of HTC Dream Fondled in the Wild
Our first shots of HTC's Dream (or G1, whatever the hell it's called) being fondled out in the real world are perhaps not coincidentally the first ones that make the phone look like it's something you can carry in the open. They look fairly real to us, and match up with what we've seen before, but the reflections are strikingly bright, so it's hard to check out which build of Android is running on it. Obviously, we'll get an even better look in just a few days. [Utterli via Talk Android]
