Thread moved to General.

We prob won't ever see the andorid 3.0 on the slide due to if rumors are true...the minium cpu is 1ghz where the slide is 600mhz. Yes when the kernel comes out and we can oc it to 1ghz prob will work but no official release is planned.

I want 2.2 Espresso not 2.2 Vanilla, vanilla is too boring
I really hope we get it soon.
Sent from my T-Mobile myTouch 3G Slide using Tapatalk
2.2 espresso would be awesome!!
Sent from my super cool rooted slide that everyone wants
2.2 espresso = GOD.
after using espresso for so long its weird to not have it.
Plus I kinda want the 10.1 flash, would be great to watch my anime when im on break. (unless I can, and i jsut dunno how? :3)
but yea its getting stupid that everything but MTS is getting froyo, even galexy S has a release date (least thats what i read somewhere) makes me wonder if we have to wait til like christmas or something which is not what we were told before hand. >_<
Ill talk to eugene or clay to port something 2.2 from the incredible to here....but it wont be espresso
Sent from my ADR6300 using XDA App
I kind of hope that we will get it around this month, the normal mytouch is getting updated this month along with the cliq and xt according to the leaked roadmap, and there is no update for the mt3gs except for july which already passed, so maybe we will hear something soon, I mean there are already dates for the droid,evo 4g,droid x, droid 2(should have froyo on release),samsung galaxy s lines, nexus one already received it, and where are us mytouch owners?

When i find a way to get sense-froyo on the slide, im going to a mytouch slide version of my rom, jdfroyo.
For more info on jdfroyo, visit incredibleroms.com or view the thread on xda.
I currently have a desire version in the works.

The CSR's aren't going to know until people start calling in after they get it.
tech support is normally last to know
We need this update ASAP lol, and hopefully tmo keeps wifi hotspot and tethering.

Only if they can bill extra for it.
Asked them through Twitter just for the heck of it. This is the response I got:
"We don't have any solid dates, but we'll keep you posted! Try not to get too green with envy! ^PC"
Pretty much the response I expected but it was worth a shot!
Wow -_-

That makes me angry for some reason... I'm calling tmobile right now and getting an extra battery for free just because of that! I love taking advantage of those tools. They owe me anyways... they just upgraded my entire city with HSPA+ and the tower by my house is stuck with HSPA regular (in other words... havent ever gotten over 1Mb up or down). I am looking forward to the eventual release of froyo but am happy with the nexus port with a2sd and espresso camera and gallery (enables changing of lockscreen). But by the time we get it, they will have already released the HTC Vision (G2 Blaze) and I end up picking that up too. Lol... Im losing it, I think!

Live Wallpaper Support

Do you think the Slide's official 2.2 update will include support for live wallpapers.
It should but I can't confirm it.

Yeah, I know that it would just be speculation at this point. Do Live Wallpapers run smoothly on the Cyanogen 6 rom?

It should, this phone may only have a minor 600MHZ Arm...But it still has 512RAM/ROM just like the N1 and even features a similar or probaby the same adreno GPU...So LWP should be no trouble for this thing, even 1st gen devices can run lwp's good and they have inferior specs to even this.

Nice. I own a Vibrant but, my father owns a MyTouch Slide and he doesn't trust me with rooting his phone. Hopefully they include support in the OTA update.
I honestly hope not, all they do is drain the battery, and eat memory.
Sent from my T-Mobile myTouch 3G Slide using XDA App
I hope it comes with live wallpaper. This phone can definitely handle it. I hear people complain about battery life, but mine is just fine and I force 3g most of the time.

Mytouch Slide Big FAIL or more like All Tmobile Android FAILs

Ever since the Mytouch HD has been announced, i feel that the 2.2 update will never become available to MT3G Slide owners.
I've read that the 2.2 update on June that it would be available in sep or so, now seeing all these new phone releases like Vibrant, G2, MT HD, HTC Desire HD... i feel that the phone would be dumped.
I was too naive myself had a MT3G and was waiting like a silly boy for the 2.2, i think is easier to walk on water than expect mobile to give you updates.
I think Tmobile is a nice carrier but they are so slow on the updates that makes no sense in buying carrier subsidized phones anymore. Like myself i started buying full priced non branded phones and take the discount on my monthly bill.
I think i save money in the long run and i always threat them to leave if they do anything weird to me.
That's nice
More like this thread is a big fail

I think its actually a mix between both. T-Mobile has to pay the manufacturers/google for the updates. Did T-Mobile pay google or HTC? If so, has google or HTC ran into issues that delay the updates. So we honestly don't know who to blame cause its more than one party working on the update. The safest to blame is T-Mobile since we do business directly with them as consumers.

Patience dude, patience. If you read the 10 other "wheres my froyo at?" threads, you would know that the mt3g has gotten froyo. So you can expect tmobile to keep their word since they have half fulfilled their promise already. Wait a little time after the mthd releases and you'll see your froyo

EVO 3D in July!?

I was just at my local Sprint store to find out when I could upgrade, and I asked when they would be offering preorders for the EVO 3D, the rep wasn't sure about that but said the 3D will be coming out this July.
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA Premium App
The guy at my local sprint store took down my name and number and said hell call me when the pre orders for the nexus are available. Hopefully they don't forget.
I imagine/hope/wish it would be the same day as the original evo that I have and love was released. That being the in june, one can only hope I guess, and odds are u can pre order from second party vendor way before a sprint store offers any kind of pre order that's what I did for my evo and I bet it was way easier than going to sprint which is what I will be doing again
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
I went to a Sprint store today and they said it was coming out tomorrow.
tl;dr: Sprint reps are full of it and have no idea when anything's happening.
I hope it would be a June release, great way to start the summer And the rep that told me has always been very reliable. Unlike the other one that told me the 3D will have a 1.5 duo core snapdragon processor that's going to just be awesome... I laughed and walk away
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA Premium App
It does have that dual core. Its gonna come stock at 1.2 Ghz but they are testing it at 1.5 and its crushing other chipsets in benchmark testing. So that Rep wasn't lying cause you will be able to oc it to 1.5

There's no way a store level sprint rep knows any date about the 3d.
Saw some videos on youtube and it looks promising. On the other hand sprint should be focusing on bring the gingerbread to the current evo's. I still find it funny that the evo 3d was running 2.2 when watching the video.

But didn't they say it would cone stock with 2.3 Gingerbread?? Along with the new Sense. Speaking if the new Sense, out of all the videos I've seen, not one has showed if the new Sense support landscape mode. Does anyone know if it does?

The rep did lie. If it doesn't come stock at 1.5ghz it's a lie.
As for it being able to be overclocked to 1.5ghz, it's highly likely it can be, but if their chip is only tested to 1.2ghz, some might not clock that high. The reason this happens is because when they cut the wafers, companies tend to test to see if they clock at a given speed, if they don't pass, then they try a lower speeds.
Now, this doesn't mean the chip that failed the higher speed can't be overclocked to that speed. Sometimes, it just a matter of giving it more juice to get it there, but then you can run into issues with heat and much faster battery drain.

My gut feeling says that landscape sense will only be enabled on devices with hardware keyboard, officially.
I wonder if the Nintendo wii remotes will work with the new sense ui

Thats where I get all my phone info including release dates. i just keep the widget on my phone and check it once or twice daily.

Upgrading

Decided to use my wife's upgrade to get myself the new LG G2x. Is there anyone else going to this phone. It is already getting a lot of promising dev support (unlike the MT3GS). Anyone else venturing to this new device?
Well...
I'd like to. Lol, pretty badly even.
Waiting for the HTC pyramid. That will have the most Dev support if that's what you really need. But I'm torn since I despise at&t

I believe that cyanogen posted something on twitter about possibly not supporting the pyramid due to the bootloader with sense. This may be a concern of devs across the board as opposed to the vanilla android from the G2x.
