For the second year in a row, LG is announcing a lightning-fast rollout for the new version of Android on its flagship phone. The LG G4 will start getting Marshmallow next week, but only if you live in Poland. That was also the first G3 Lollipop market last year. LG likes Poland, I guess. Other markets […]
ATT is not known for its rapid updates. The Galaxy S6 only got Android 5.1 on ATT late last month, several months after it hit other variants. At least Samsung isn’t completely ignoring its 2014 devices. The Note 4 and Note Edge on ATT are getting Android 5.1.1 tomorrow, according to Samsung’s website. There’s no changelog […]

Thanks to semi-standardized hardware and “pure” builds of Android, Google has maintained an impressive track record when it comes to speedily updating the Android One phones that it’s designed with various partners in emerging markets. One of our readers was kind enough to track down a handful of links for over-the-air updates to Android 6.0 […]
Check the YouTube app on your phone or tablet, user interface aficionados – you might spot something new. Like the other official Google apps have been doing for a while (quite a while), YouTube is getting a pull-to-refresh animation for relevant pages. It doesn’t seem to be tied to any particular version of the app […]
PPSSPP is an impressively capable emulator for the original Sony PlayStation Portable, and today it’s a little more so. The 1.1 update adds a ton of new features, or at least it officially adds them – support for Android TV and ARM64 seems to have been there for quite a while, since I’ve been playing […]
Google has shown off what’s in Android 6.0. Factory images and over-the-air updates are popping up for Nexus devices. That means the time is ripe for smartphone makers to announce when they’re going to bring Marshmallow to their devices. Sony tends to be pretty good about rolling out updates eventually. Its Android 6.0 plans affect […]
Many of us would be surprised just how many people still sign into Yahoo accounts. The tech giant may not compete at the same level of a certain other search engine, but millions of people continue to store their mail on its servers. A number of them will soon sign into the Android app and […]
We’ve had a few developer previews of Android 6.0 over the summer, but now the real deal is rolling out. You could wait for days (or weeks!) to get the OTA on your device the old-fashioned way, or you can just grab the ZIP files from the URLs below. We’ll update with new OTA files […]
AIDE, the Android integrated development environment, has reached version 3.2. That means it’s getting Marshmallow support. It’s picked up the option to refresh Maven libraries. It has updated Android NDK support and Google libraries. And it’s packed with other goodies that don’t really mean all that much to non-developery types. But even if you are a […]
Around these parts, Synology is better known for its NAS boxes, which are storage drives that you access over the network and that come with a slew of optimized Android apps dedicated to accessing videos, photos, audio, documents, files, and notes from your mobile device. But it looks like Synology is casting a wider net with the release […]
