Subtitles: Hi guys, this is David from TheUnlockr.com and this is the wireless news for the week of February 11th 2011.  We begin today with some amazing news.

If 40 people sounds like a lot to you maybe you should see what happened when the iPhone 4 originally launched. [Pause for video] Now, to be fair the Verizon iPhone has been on sale for a few days now and Verizon themselves has declared their first day of online […]

  So for those curious as to how Honeycomb generally runs on the Nook Color, here’s a quick video of just that (sped up 2x to make it a little more bearable to watch). Not bad for a $250 tablet running very beta software. It can only get better… Want to do this to your Nook Color? Here’s how, follow these procedures in this order: How To: Root the Nook Color How To: Flash Honeycomb onto the Internal Memory of the Nook Color

I. Before You Begin 1. You must have done our How To Root the Nook Color procedure. If not, do it and then come back to this procedure and continue. 2. This method will erase your entire internal memory off of the Nook and flash Honeycomb onto it. This improves the Honeycomb performance over running it from an SD card but also means that you would need to do our unroot procedure in order to get back to stock. 3. This ROM also requires you to flash this ROM using a custom recovery image on an SD card (will explain

Come February 13th, the Japanese-Swedish company will reveal what it’s been staying mum on all along, the Xperia Play.  This one has seen it all – leaked images, videos, you name it; hell, it’s on sale in China already, had an advert leaked, and the company still wouldn’t budge and own up.  But MWC should put an end to all this and see the PlayStation phone in its official garb, as the company has now announced on its Facebook page that the device will be unveiled in Barcelona on February 13th during the Mobile World Congress, and there’s an ad

I. Before You Begin 1. You must have done our How To Root the Nook Color (AutoNooter Method) procedure before beginning this one. If you haven’t, please go back and do it then come back to this procedure once you are done. 2.

The Nook Color automatically boots from the SD card first so if there is an OS on the SD card (like Honeycomb) it’ll boot that instead of booting the normal OS that resides on

I. Before You Begin 1. You MUST have done our How To Root the Nook Color procedure. Once you have finished that procedure you can come to this one and continue. II. Flash a Custom Recovery Image 1.

Once you have installed it, open ROM Manager and select Flash Recovery Image and then choose Nook Color as your device. 4. Wait for it to say successfully flashed. III. Choose a ROM to Flash

I. Before You Begin – IMPORTANT! 1. You MUST have an external SD card reader, do NOT use the NOOKColor instead. 2. You must have a Gmail account and a YouTube account that is linked to that Gmail account (furthermore, if you used the gmail email to create your Barnes & Noble account, it must be the same Gmail that is linked to the YouTube account as well). 3. You MUST be on firmware version 1.0.1 or 1.1.0 (1.0.0 will not work). Check your firmware version by clicking on the Arrow button then Settings then Device Info then About Your

I. Before You Begin 1. This will return the phone back to the stock ROM and put you at build GRH78. 2. Use this method to start over, or to send your phone in for warranty reasons. 3.

After wooing smartphone lovers at the CES, HTC’s Incredible HD aka the Thunderbolt aka the Mecha may finally be ready for a release in the near future.  There is no official word yet on a specific date but a training flyer for Verizon employers is already doing the rounds on the interwebs which points to an imminent release of the device.  As we already told you, the Thunderbolt will be Verizon’s first LTE device and according to the flyer, can juggle data and voice simultaneously when on 4G.  The device will also support internet sharing via VZW Mobile Hotspot on

  Google posted the above promo for the CES before hastily hiding it, but not before a few viewers downloaded it and upped it again to YouTube.  Looking at the video, Google has definitely put in a lot of work to bring out a likeable OS that is both fast and good on the eyes.  Slightly reminiscent of the Tron: Legacy, the minimalistic approach to things that Google loves so much is all there and so are the improvements to many integrated apps like the GMail client with a better layout or the updated YouTube client.  The Google Books apps

In this episode,we do a quick review of Microsoft’s Windows Phone 7 OS, we do some tests on the new OS comparing it to the Nexus One (Android OS) and the iPhone 4 (iOS), and we even compare Microsoft’s marketing claims for the new OS against real time time trials to see if what they are saying is just your average marketing fluff or if there is some truth to it after all.
