Will the t-mobile android g1 get the 2.0 update?

Posted on 21 January 2010 by admin

I read somewhere that there isn't enough room on the phone. I'm really hoping they'll find a way to send the update. If the g1 ends up not getting the update is there anyway to manual install 2.0?

      T-Mobile itself is being silent on the issue of upgrades of either the G1 or the myTouch, although the consensus is that the update for the myTouch will roll out sometime after the first of the year. As for the issue of the G1 not having enough storage, I have personally seen a rooted G1 running Android 2.0 after being ported by a very clever outside coder named Akira Harada, so it is certainly possible. Never tell a developer that something isn’t possible! If the G1 does not get the update officially, you should watch the forums on master developer Cyanogen’s web site for a slick unauthorized upgrade.

      At the very least, you should pleased and tantalized that Google decided to backport the incredible Turn-By-Turn Navigation update originally developed for 2.0 back to version 1.6 and making it available on current updates of the Google Maps application. I’ve been using it for the past week and it is amazing, esp when combined with a dashboard mount/charger combo for my car.
