We received a few HTC ExtUSB connectors from PodGizmo. The first thing we thought of, was making the T-Mobile G1 send the audio to an iPod Speaker set we have. There is a sea of iPod accessories, so naturally the dock connector has a well known pinout. Figuring out the pinout for the HTC ExtUSB connector wasn’t too hard, I just split open my hands free adapter I got with my T-Mobile Dash.

The first Android phone, the T-Mobile G1, has been out for a couple of months now, and it's turned out to be a nicely hackable phone. Google has opened things up a bit more by making a read-only development branch, "cupcake", available for public perusal. If you're wondering when we'll see these enhancements on a shipping Android phone, it's gotten one step closer since the cupcake branch came out:
The changes introduced in the cupcake branch have been merged into the master branch, preserving all of the previous commits to master. The same will happen for each future drop to cupcake.
If you're not familiar with the guts of software development, what this means is that Google's Android developers took two complex pieces of software (the official, stable version of the Android operating system + the experimental version with all the new bells and whistles) and combined them, reconciling any differences and combining them into a seamless whole.

For those of you who don't want to hack your own firmware to open it up completely, you can get an unlocked, hackable phone direct from Google.

Cellphone hacking is not a new thing to all of us, but this hack for medical purposes is simply imposing. Scientists at UCLA have transformed a Sony Ericsson phone into a blood testing unit, which can detect HIV, malaria and several other illnesses. This portable blood tester was created by just using an LED, plastic light filter and some wires. The hacked device analyzes the blood cells that are placed on an integrated off-the-shelf camera sensor and lit up with a filtered light source. Pictured above is an off-the-shelf Sony Ericsson cellphone that has been modded into a LUCAS imager. LUCAS stands for Lensfree Ultrawide-field Cell-monitoring Array platform based on Shadow imaging. More images for the hacked phone after the jump.

A few days more and we will be singing carols for Christmas. While Apple and Nokia impressed everyone with their offerings, Motorola seemed to be lagging behind in the race. Now, the guys at Boy Genius Report are showing Motorola’s 2009 range for Verizon Wireless. The new product line-up looks quite decent and sexy and there are four handsets dubbed Calgary, Flash, Rush 2 and Inferno. Two of the handsets are QWERTY sliders. The names are rumored to be codenames for the handsets. We might see the Rush 2 in real in the Q1 of 2009. There is no word on technical details and availability for now. Pictured above is the Flash, which looks to be an iPhone rival. More images after the jump…
