The above document has recently leaked that gives us a hint as to when we will be seeing the HTC DROID Eris appear on Verizon. In fact, it tells us that the device will hit the carrier on November 6th for $99 on a 2-year contract and after a $100 mail-in rebate.

This device will be running Android 1.5 (no 2.0?) with the Sense UI and feature a 3.2 inch touch screen, 528MHz processor, WiFI, 5mp camera, and ship with an 8GB microSD card.

Anyone looking to pick this device up?

Rumors of the HTC Desire on Verizon have been circulating since the beginning of this month when the device was found on Verizon computers. Today the above live shot of the device has appeared with it wearing none other than the Verizon branding.

As you can see, this is an Android powered touchscreen device running the HTC developed Sense UI.

We’ll keep you posted as more information is made known.

Fortunately for Android fans there’s another phone coming your way from HTC that’s going to run Google’s OS. The Desire is the phone in question and it looks like the handset have been blessed by the FCC. The phone might be heading to Verizon soon and it could become the first Android phone to be sold by Big Red. Besides being approved by the FCC, the phone has also received WiFi certification from the WiFi Alliance. And that’s all the news there is to it. Hopefully the Desire will be at least as hot as the Hero and we envision it coming with Donut on and HTC Sense UI on top. What do you think?

  • We only just reported that Verizon is gearing up to launch the Storm 2, Sholes and vx8575 next month and already reports of another handset for the carrier have surfaced. This time, it’s the Android powered HTC Desire which we’ve heard absolutely nothing about until now.

    News of the HTC Desire comes to us from a leaked screen shot of Verizon’s handset where it shows the handset’s model number to be 6200 along with the word GOOGL. This most likely means the device will have a with Google branding on the back resulting in no Sense UI.

    We’ll keep you updated as more news regarding the HTC Desire 6200 is made known.

  • Supposed HTC Hero 2 spotted

    The Hero is one of HTC’s most coveted phones, featuring a beautiful touchscreen display and most importantly Sense UI. So, it would only make sense that the company would then go on to produce an HTC Hero 2, of sorts, right?

    Well, what you see above may be just that as 8080.net claims it is a device that recently found its way through the FCC called the Hero200. Of course, we have no official confirmation but you can clearly see that it’s running the Sense UI but where is the Jay Leno chin?

    The HTC Hero is a beautiful device, that’s no secret, and one of the major contributing factors to its beauty is the Sense UI for Android. However, while the device and software was very pleasing to the eyes, users complained of a rather sluggish experience while using the Sense UI.

    Luckily, Paul O’Brien over at MoDaCo has gotten his hands on a upcoming Hero software update that will address this exact problem. As you can see in the above video, the Sense UI is a lot more responsive than it was prior to this update which is sure to please just about every HTC Hero owner out there.

    There isn’t an exact date for when the update is going to be rolled out but our sources tell us to expect it in the coming weeks.

    Included above is a video demonstration of HTC’s unreleased TouchFlo 3D 2.6 Windows Mobile UI that is destined for a debut on the HTC Leo.

    As you can see, the UI bares a slight resemblance to HTC’s Sense Android UI found on devices such as the HTC Hero in the sense that it’s beautiful, practical and fine to use with your fingers. Those worrying about your TouchFlo 3D touting devices not being able to support this new UI need not worry as the update is to be mostly aesthetic.

    HTC to release Sense UI for Magic

    HTC has recently announced that they will be porting their highly sought after Sense UI to their Magic handset this October. Unfortunately, those with the American version of the Magic (T-Mobile myTouch 3G) will not be getting the same love due to the “with Google” branding on the back.

    The reason for this is that T-Mobile reportedly signed an agreement with Google regarding Android’s licensing that made it unlawful for them to adopt the Sense UI. Bummer.

    One of the key features of the HTC Hero is the in-house developed Sense UI for the phone’s Android operating system. It features a beautiful yet useable interface that any user is sure to love, somethign that Windows Mobile has yet to get down.

    Luckily, a hacker has been able to port HTC’s Sense UI to run on the Windows Mobile touting HTC Vogue. Sure, the interface is pretty laggy to the point where it’d be more of a pain rather than a pleasure to use but this proves it is possible. Now let’s see where the community will take it.

    HTC Hero unboxed on video

    We’ve seen the phone itself and we’ve seen its rather sexy Sense UI, but we haven’t seen is a proper unboxing of the device. What you see above is just that, an unboxing of the highly anticipated HTC Hero.

    As you can see the unboxing features a pretty bland white box which is likely to chance once the handset hits retail.

    After the HTC Hero’s unboxing, Android Community played around with the phone and came to a conclusion, “It’s perhaps the best Android device to-date”. That sure sounds promising.

    UPDATE: There was a problem with the video so head here to watch the unboxing.

  • T-Mobile has recently announced that they will be bringing their the HTC Hero rebranded as the G2 Touch to the German market in August as opposed to July as previously thought.

    If the price point stays the same you will be able to snag T-Mobile UK’s G2 Touch for free on an 18-month contract with a service plan of at least $60.

    If you haven’t been paying attention, this handset will feature HTC’s much sought after Sense UI along with a 320 x 480 touch-screen display, 5MP camera, a trackball, WiFi, 3G, Bluetooth and a 3.5mm headphone jack. Sign me up!

    A video has hit the interwebs showcasing the beautiful UI that is to be featured on the forthcoming Android powered Sony Ericsson handset.

    As you can see, this UI is looking to give HTC’s Sense UI a run for its money as Sony seems to have completely redone the stock Android UI. But anyways, enough chit chat, watch the above video and bask in the glory that is Rachael.

    Now that we’ve seen the UI, can we get a release date and/or a price, Sony? Please?

    Despite being released in Canada only recently, Rogers Wireless has announced that they will be lowering the prices of both the HTC Dream and HTC Magic to $99.99.

    Of course, you’ll have to opt for a 3-year contract before you get the lowered price but $99.99 for an Android phone? Count me in.

    Hell, after seeing that a hacker got HTC’s Sense UI running on one of these phones makes the deal even more enticing.

    Do you remember when HTC announced that their sleek new user interface dubbed Sense would only be made available for phones without the “with Google” branding? Well it looks like some Italian hackers weren’t pleased with this and decided to take maters into their own hands.

    Featured in the above video is a T-Mobile G1 running HTC’s Sense UI and from the looks of it is relatively smooth. Other than Sense’s obvious graphic enhancements this hack will actually enable the G1’s multitouch, a feature that was not enabled out of the box.

    Ths hack came about by the Italian group of hackers flashing their G1 with what they are calling the SuperHERO ROM.

    The HTC Hero is the hottest Android phone so far. The phone was just announced by HTC at a special event in London and it amazed everyone with that new Sense UI on top of the regular Android OS. And it’s only logical for the HTC Hero to be available for pre-order in the UK already. Amazon UK has the unlock phone up for sale. You’ll have to pay around $710 and wait a couple of weeks to receive it. What do you think? How much would you be willing to pay for your Hero?

    After you’ve seen the Sense UI in action you should also know that HTC has a new TouchFlo version coming up. The TouchFlo 3D 2.5 also known as the Manila will apparently be available on the Firestone in the near future.

    Manila comes with new features like a new home screen with support for Footprints and up to nine apps shortcuts. There’s also faster access to calendar and alarm access. A new settings screen will let you customize the phone without getting you the feeling that you’re still handling a Windows Mobile device.

    With these in mind we’ll be waiting for the HTC Firestone to see get more details. In the mean time you can check out the demo video above and choose between the Sense or the TouchFlo.

    After we’ve seen the HTC Sense UI in action on an Android device, now we hear that future Windows Mobile handsets might come with Sense UI installed too. Here’s what we know so far:

    The Hero UI has been created specifically for HTC’s Android-based phones but also represents that three core pillars of HTC Sense. HTC’s future Windows Mobile phones will also be based on HTC Sense, but will enhance Windows Mobile in a way that is as appropriate and valuable to people.

    As you can see there aren’t any specific details yet. We have no idea when that Sense UI will be available and what Windows Mobile phones is HTC going to launch in the near future. One question does come to mind though! How will HTC choose between Sense UI and TouchFlo? Will the company make both these user interfaces work on Windows Mobile phones?

    If you were looking to get the Sense UI, featured on the HTC Hero, for your T-Mobile G1 you are sure to be discouraged by this latest announcement.

    Apparantly, the HTC has released a statment that says  due to licensing terms, any phones branded with the Google logo, such as the T-Mobile Android devices, will not be able to run the stylish user interface.

    Then again, once the Sense UI is made readily available, it’s only a matter of time until hackers will be able to boot it up on the above mentioned devices.

    After you’ve seen the Hero today you must have started toying with the idea of getting that Sense UI on your current Android device, whatever it may be. And it’s safe to say that the user interface is going to be available to other HTC Android devices. We have no official press release to prove that but we might have something better. According to HTC’s CEO, Peter Chou, “HTC sense will be available on some other existing devices.” Isn’t that good news or what?

    The Sense UI will definitely make your Android phone more appealing so you should grab it when you’ll have the chance. We’ll be telling you what to do and when as soon as we know about it.
