Samsung I9100 Galaxy S II dual-core CPU will run at 1.2 GHz ("Samsung Unlock", Dr Mobiles Limited, http://go.to/drmobiles)

The Samsung I9100 Galaxy S II is a pretty powerful beast as it is with its Exynos chipset featuring a dual-core Cortex-A9 CPU and Mali 400 GPU. However Samsung obviously decided 1GHz is not good enough for their flagship so they are adding even more oomph to it.

The company's Estonian office has just confirmed through their Facebook page that the two CPU cores will be running at 1.2 GHz, rather than the previously announced 1GHz. That update brings the Samsung I9100 Galaxy S II to the top of the Cortex-A9 class, in pure computing power, at least.

It's a surprising move, we admit. We've never seen processor specs jump midway from announcement to release but that's obviously the case, The Galaxy S II official microsite no longer lists the exact technical specs of the CPU, so we can only assume something's cooking there for real.

Update: We just got a further confirmation from an internal source that the Galaxy S II CPU has indeed been updated to 1.2GHz.

What we don't know yet is how this new chip compares to the new Qualcomm Snapdragons, featuring 1.4 GHz dual-core Scorpion CPUs. We guess we'll see about that in a couple of months time when the Galaxy S II and the HTC EVO 3D will both be finalized.

It should be pretty obvious by now that 2011 is going to be as good a year for Android fans as 2010.

2011 Leaked News: HTC Pyramid to be called Sensation, launches next week?

You’ve probably heard the words “HTC Pyramid” very often over the last few weeks and rumor has it you’ll be hearing more about as next week's HTC event draws closer. Except you’ll hear Sensation from now on – reportedly, that’s the phone’s official name for the UK.

The HTC Pyramid will be named HTC Sensation for the British market and will make its first official appearance during the HTC event in London next Tuesday.

HTC Sensation (formerly Pyramid)

We’ve seen benchmarks (performed with pre-production software) of the HTC Sensation’s 1.2GHz dual-core CPU and we’ve seen plenty of photos of its 4.3” qHD screen.

Unfortunately, the rumor offers nothing new on pricing or when the phone will be in stores. Which countries will get it is also unclear (though there was a T-Mobile USA rumor).

We can’t wait till Tuesday to find out more about the HTC Sensation. Hopefully, we’ll get some info on the GSM version of the HTC EVO 3D.

Lastes News: Samsung Galaxy S II is still set for April launch

Samsung Galaxy S II launch will be delayed by as much as a month. But now Samsung stepped up and announced (via Twitter) that the Samsung Galaxy S II flagship will still arrive on time in April to scheduled markets.

Unfortunately, there's no concrete information about which markets will be getting the Galaxy S II first.

The company also said that the device will be "gradually rolled out in each market according to the local launch timetable". It sounds laconic enough. It may mean that the Galaxy S II will hit everywhere, just gradually, not in huge numbers. Or that key European markets will be getting it first. We can only guess.

We're yet to see what's what with the Galaxy S II. As you know it already came in for a review and we're currently working with it.

New phones are always exciting, but would you care to share with us how you use your current phone?

Power Tips: FaceIt-3GS – Hack Enables FaceTime On iPhone 3GS (Apple, iPhone, Apps, Repair, Unlock)

We recently wrote about a jailbreak appcalled FaceTime Hactivator for jailbroken iPhones. The application was developed by folks at iPhoneIslam to enable FaceTime on iPhone 4 in countries like UAE, Qatar and Saudi Arabia where it is disabled.
Now if you are an iPhone 3GS user, here is some good news. The team at iPhoneIslam have released yet another jailbreak app on the Cydia store that will bring FaceTime - Apple's video calling feature to your iPhone (kind of).
The new jailbreak application called FaceIt-3GS will tweak the native settings on the iPhone 3GS in order to enable FaceTime video calling on the older model. Like FaceTime Hacktivator, this application too will require the user to jailbreak their iPhone. If you haven't jailbroken your iPhone 3GS already, you can check out our related article here.
You can follow these simple steps to install FaceIt-3GS on your jailbroken iPhone 3GS
  • Launch the Cydia app and add http://apps.iphoneislam.com  repository (Manage->Sources-Edit-Add)
  • After the repository has been added, tap on the search tab and search for FaceIt-3GS 
  • From the search results, tap on FaceIt-3GS to install it 
  • Reboot your iPhone 3GS
That's it, you should be able to use the FaceTime feature on your iPhone 3GS. You may now navigate to Settings -> Phone to toggle the FaceTime option on. 
With no front camera, FaceTime on iPhone 3GS may not be as exciting an application as it is on the iPhone 4. The present version of FaceIt-3GS also does not seem to have a way out to use the rear-camera of the iPhone 3GS for video capture. Nevertheless, if you are looking for a video chatting application that can be a great alternative to voice calling on your iPhone, FaceIt-3GS is something you must check out.

Super Cool Apple iPhone App: Gravity Clock (Apple iPhond Screen repair by www.drmobiles.co.nz)

iPhone app: Gravity Clock

iPhone app: Gravity Clock 
Gravity clock for the iPhone and iPod Touch visualizes the passage of time by the permanent destruction and reconstruction of the clock-face. Every second the hand breaks numbers out of the dial and lets them drop to the floor where they get buried by the following numbers and eventually wither away to make room for the endless succession of time.
Features:
  • realistic gravity/physics simulation, numbers fall as if they were real objects
  • digital and analog mode
  • in analog mode: every minute the minutes drop, every 15 minutes a quarter of the seconds fall and finally at noon and midnight all seconds drop.
  • in digital mode: when the time changes the old numbers are dropped
  • in digital mode: 24h and 12h hour mode
  • prevents iPhone or iPod touch from sleeping
  • universal app supports iPhone/iPod touch AND iPad (in native resolution)
  • looks perfect in an iPhone/iPad-dock.
