just got Android 1.5 on the G1 - Page 2 - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

It hasn't been confirmed yet but I'm hoping it will be AT&T. Or barring that, at least have the 3G frequency for AT&T.

The thing with moto/samsung/LG is that their handsets and hardware have been decent in recent years but their UI's and User experience in general have total crap.

Once more manufacturers start adopting android we consumers should have way more choices in great phones.

were finally getting the android june 2nd in canada might switch my blackberry for it have to play with g1 and g2 first though

Daniel. · 09-08-2009, 03:32 PM

It's official, they added a donut to the lineup outside of my office this morning.

BustedS13 · 09-08-2009, 04:20 PM

thing is, this isn't 2003 anymore. it's not like mind-blowing new features are just pulled out of a hat. Android is already packed with killer features. the only thing i'd really like to see is native multi touch support.

lflkajfj12123 · 09-08-2009, 05:07 PM

i love my nokia e71

when will a donut competitor be released (full keyboard, thin, does cool shit) busteds13?

Daniel. · 09-08-2009, 05:34 PM

Symbian is going in the toilet.

Flushing to commence sometime soon. Keep your eyeballs peeled folks.

ZenkiKid · 09-08-2009, 05:48 PM

I am currently running Cyanogen 4.0.4 which is based off of 1.5 donut and am in the process of converting to the HTC-Dream firmware as soon as my 8gb micro sd gets in the mail, I havent even owned this phone for a week yet and I went through like 5 different firmwares hahhahaha.

Anyone have the tmobile mytouch? I really want it for some reason

Dutchmalmiss · 09-08-2009, 11:30 PM

Unless someone can figure out how to make the G1 use the SD card memory instead of the internal memory, I don't think Donut will be available for G1s. Hopefully someone can school me on this because G1s right now don't have enough internal memory to even hold Donut.

chibo · 09-09-2009, 01:28 AM

I am also rocking cyanogenmod firmware on a g1, infact, all of my posts lately have nbeen done on the g1 because I'm so damned busy

Kaizen. · 09-09-2009, 03:10 AM

I've had my g1 since it first came out. Is it just me or does the games suck balls?! Well some is ok, but the Iphone seems to have so much better games. I dunno, might enter the dark side and get a iPhone 4g when it eventually comes out.

Just found out you can root the G1 and do different themes on it. Thats banannas. Check youtube if you dont know what im talking about. Some of you probably already did it, but I just found out, lol.

this. someone?

Daniel. · 09-09-2009, 11:15 AM

Donut is the name of a specific version of the Android OS.

Donut competitors would be other OS'.

If you're asking when a company is going to be releasing a mobile device that is thin, "does cool shit" (whatever that means in hardware terms), and has a full keyboard running android then your answer is, who knows?

There are plenty of manufacturers releasing hardware in the next 6 months that will be running some form of Android or another.

If you want to stick with Nokia, look up Maemo. I mentioned it in another thread. This will probably be replacing Symbian on many of Nokia's Flagship devices.

lflkajfj12123 · 09-09-2009, 11:19 AM

just saying

android looks promising, wondering when a new android equipped phone is coming out that is similar to the e71?

i'd like to make the switch some time because symbian is pure poop now

BustedS13 · 09-09-2009, 12:50 PM

you gotta get away from that 2005 smartphone stereotype, brah. half screen, half keyboard... last gen.
the G1 is a fatty but it gets the job done well and is a pleasure to handle. there's a redesign coming out eventually.

lflkajfj12123 · 09-09-2009, 02:04 PM

y'all are so mean in this thread

i'm out

Daniel. · 09-09-2009, 02:18 PM

s0ap we're not mean, you're just really squishy.

BustedS13 · 09-09-2009, 02:20 PM

symbian is dead
miss him, miss him

i buried symbian

TheWolf · 09-09-2009, 05:29 PM

the suck part is 1.5 being the last upgrade for the G1's. Doughnut ain't gonna fit on that on board memory. Sux about G1 not working onthe 3g.

MikeisNissan · 09-09-2009, 06:54 PM

i love my g1.

What in the world are you talking about? My G1 works fine on 3G , on T-Mobile.

If you are talking about it not working on ATT?

Well that is a frequency issue and unless a handset maker makes a handset specific for ATT its never going to work.

Reason being T-mobile uses a 1700/2100 3g Network in the U.S. vs ATT using a 1900/2100.

As long as the Networks have those differences you will not get a Iphone to work on the 3G Network on T-mo and you will not get a any T mobile USA 3G phone to work on ATT it will be Edge only.

Possibly with the advent of 4G this will change. Though given the extreme protectionist polices of American cell phone companies? I doubt it. LOL

Don't like it? Blame on it on the way cell phone companies operate in the U.S. as a whole vs Europe.

Daniel. · 09-10-2009, 12:23 PM

I just got my hands on an HTC Passion running Eclair.

I have pics, but if I post them, I'll lose my job.

It's nice so far. Could use a real keyboard though.

looks good in black, though. too bad it's yet another t-mobile exclusive.
