Sprint is pushing out lots of updates today. Shortly after rolling out a software update to the Galaxy S6 and S6 Edge, the carrier has just pushed out yet another update. This time it’s Android 5.1 for the Samsung Galaxy Note Edge. Sprint is trying to be consistent with their updates, this one being released exactly three months after Lollipop arrived for the device. That’s always a good sign for a carrier.

The update is being rolled out over-the-air, so consumers might have to wait a few days to get the update on their device. The update will bring better performance, lots of bug fixes and some security fixes. Sprint did not release any details about any new features that will come with the update.

Sprint may not have been one of the first out the gate with an update to Android 5.1 for the Samsung Galaxy S6 and Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge, but they weren’t exactly lagging either. Today, the Now Network is pushing out relatively minor updates to the aforementioned devices, providing us with the usual vague “bug fixes and enhancements” changelog.

The update — G920PVPU2BOFE for the regular S6 and G925PVPU2BOFE for the S6 Edge — weighs in at around 147MB in size, and although we can’t be sure, we’re hoping it addresses reports of the device lagging after the previous Android 5.1 update. If you’ve updated, let us know how it’s working out for you.

The rollout of Android 5.1.1 to unlocked Galaxy S6 models picked up over the weekend. This update first started rolling out to unlocked models in India a week or so ago, but now is hitting devices in additional countries, like here in the US. At least that’s the case with my unlocked Galaxy S6 (SM-G920I). I would assume this is available for the Edge variant as well.

The update above, which ends up as G920IDVU2COF8, showed up as a whopping 609MB file that took some time to install. 

Overall, there isn’t much to the update outside of quicker exposure controls in the camera, alphabetical sorting in the app drawer, and the ability to remove those stupid S Finder and Quick Connect buttons in your notification shade. The the rest should be bug fixes and other improvements here or there.

To grab the update head into Settings>About device>Software update.

Adding to the recent leaks regarding Samsung’s upcoming Galaxy Note 5, 4GB of high-speed LP-DDR4 RAM has been confirmed by a “reliable insider”. This seems eminently possible and if true, makes the rumoured device very powerful on paper.

According to the good folks at SamMobile, a few specs for the Galaxy Note 5 have been confirmed by sources. As reported, the Note 5 will feature 4GB of RAM – aligning with the announcement of Samsung’s manufacturing of said memory – as well as Samsung’s new Exynos 7422 SoC.

A large amount of RAM is surely welcomed, but the Exynos 7422 should also have Note fans excited. This particular SoC features a single-chip solution, combining an Octa-core 64-bit CPU, GPU, RAM, storage, and Shannon 333 LTE modem all into the same package. In terms of performance, the Galaxy Note 5 is lining up to be absolutely dominant in benchmarks. 

Additional reports declare that the Note 5 will feature a 5.67″ Super AMOLED QHD display, on top of a reworked design – much like we saw with the Galaxy S6 and Galaxy S6 Edge. As for the Note 5 not featuring a microSD slot or removable battery, that information is currently up in the air until we have official details from Samsung or a reputable leak happens. The truth is, until a phone is official, all potentially “confirmed” specs need to be taken with a whole salt shaker.

We are nearing the device’s unveiling, reported to be around mid-August, but in the comments section below, list out what would make the perfect Note 5 for you. Feel free to include ludicrous wishes, such as stock Android instead of TouchWiz.

If you enjoyed the first installment of the Mushroom Wars, the new storyline will send you into orbit as the little Mushroom warriors now try to conquer other planets. The new game called Mushroom Wars: Space! continues where the first game left off, but now you get to deal with aliens, inter-planetary travel, and all sorts of space shenanigans in this popular real-time strategy game, originally available on the Playstation, but now ready for your Android devices.

In this new game, you get to take the Mushroom people on a space journey, as they aim to not just unite other mushroom tribes, but conquer different planets as well, and then stay and defend their property. There are several mission objectives that you’d need to fulfill, but part of the game is also conquering and defending your armories and towers. The game has several playing modes, including a PvE campaign mode where you get to battle in 40 new missions across the new planets and asteroids of the Mushroom Universe.

There is also the Synchronous Multiplayer mode where you get to play in more than 30 balanced maps against 2-4 players who are online playing the game as well. As you progress in the game, you also get to have new difficulty modes available for you. You would also need to use Strategic Resource Management in this game as your mushroom units are both fighting units and a resource you can use to upgrade and strengthen your towers and strongholds.

Mushroom Wars: Space! is available as a free download in the Google Play Store. It is ad-supported, but is considered a family-friendly app. There are also some in-app purchases available.

Everyone remember the HTC Grip? No? Vaguely? The HTC Grip was the fitness band that HTC introduced during their One M9 keynote at MWC. The band was made in partnership with Under Armour and should have launched at some point in the Spring. At least, that’s what HTC told us to expect and is still today what their website for the Grip says. Of course, we are in the middle of the Summer now, so it’s probably time for HTC or someone to update that.

I’ve got to be honest in saying that I assumed that this HTC Grip was either out already and no one knew, or it had been cancelled. Then again, Razer’s Nabu saw a year-long delay before eventually launching. Maybe fitness bands are hard? 

Anyways, I bring it up today because it appears to have stopped off at Bluetooth SIG for certification within the last couple of days. The product is a “fitness band” made by HTC that was created at some point around March 4, according to this listing. That certainly makes sense, since the HTC Grip was announced on March 1.

As a recap, the HTC Grip is a fitness band that connects to Android or iPhones via Bluetooth, has a built-in GPS, is powered by Under Armor Record (UA’s fitness and social platform), and should last up to 2.5 days on a single charge, but only 5 hours with GPS enabled. It could be a decent fitness band, assuming it isn’t two years late to the party.
