We’re still eagerly awaiting Samsung’s announcement of the Galaxy S IV, but we’re still picking up on a few rumors leading up to March 14th. We’ve already talked about the guts that will possibly power the S IV, but now we’re hearing word that Samsung will launch their new flagship in two colors and three memory options for each color. Instead of the usual white and pebble blue we’ve become so used to, Samsung will launch the device in a simple white and black. Nothing ground breaking there, but if history repeats itself, Samsung will likely release a few other colors a few months after launch, just in case you aren’t a fan of simplistic white and black.

As far as memory options go, the S IV will come with either 16, 32, or 64 GB versions for both colors, bringing the total up to 6 different variations of the device. Finding the higher memory options for the Galaxy S III could be difficult depending on the region you live in, so it’s good to see Samsung push these options from the get-go.

So which Galaxy S IV do you guys plan on picking up? Let us know in the comments.

New Samsung Galaxy Note II colors introduced

Samsung has started advertising two new colors for their monster smartphone, the Samsung Galaxy Note II, in the South Korean market. Samsung seems to be fond of producing different color choices for their devices as the life cycle progresses. The two newest colors for the Galaxy Note II are Amber brown and Ruby wine, the latter of which is closer to being a red than anything else.

The color change goes beyond just slapping a different color cover on the back of the device. The front face bits are also produced in the new colors and even the S Pen matches. No word though from Samsung as to when alternative colors, including these two, may be rolled out to other markets.

Visitors to the Verizon web site today were greeted with an offer to sign up for notifications about a couple new colors for Samsung Galaxy S III devices. Both black and brown will be available from Verizon, joining blue and white versions. No word on pricing, though it is hard to imagine they would sell for anything other than what the current versions go for. No word on a projected release date either, but it is probably not too far in the future.

If you’re the kind of person who likes fast moving colors and wants to show off cool Live Wallpapers to your friends with iPhones, then we’ve got one for ya.  Check out Colorful Balloons Live Wallpaper for your Android device and take advantage of your device’s ever increasing specs like dual-core CPU’s and high res touch displays.  I wouldn’t recomend this on a lower end Android device with a CPU of less than 1GHz but if you’ve got the power and juice to run an app like this , then go for it.

There are a variety of settings to get this Live Wallpaper to fit your screen size nicely.  Scrolling while the Live Wallpaper is running seems to be smooth and you can even change the frame rates per second to your liking.  The app will run you a buck so take that into consideration but if you’re able to make the mortgage this month and purchase the app, then you’re golden.  You can find it on the Android Market here.  Feel free to let us know what you think in the comments below.   Hit the break for a couple of more screen shots and to check out a video of the app in action.   » Read the rest

Want to change that plain Jane white background on your Google+ application?  XDA member santiemanuel, has been hard at work to give you just that.  If you’ve got an AMOLED screen for your device then you’re in luck.  Head on over to the application thread to check out the developer’s inverted colors theme which gives you a nice black background along with a new icon, plus more.  Subsequently, you now get to benefit from saved battery life having an AMOLED screen and all.  The only hitch, is as of now, there is a known bug which causes the app to force close.  However, no other issues were brought to light.  Don’t forget to let us know what you think of the application in the comments below.

T-Mobile’s MyTouch 4G shows off its color palette

What’s this?  T-Mobile’s MyTouch 4G (previously known as the MyTouch HD/Emerald) looks to be coming out with 4 different colors:  Black, Plum, Red, and White.  Honostly, it’s refreshing to see a bit of color in the land of smartphones.  Usually the release of different and new colors is reserved for the country of origin, or for when the carrier (or handset maker) wants to draw in more customers by releasing a “special edition” color.

In case you forgot, the MyTouch 4G will be the 2nd phone (after the G2) to run on T-Mobiles 4G (HSPA+) network, granting faster data speeds.  It will also be one of the first phones on T-Mobile to feature a front-facing camera and support video conferencing.  Thinking of picking one up?  What color do you fancy?
