from the looks of the t-mobile calender it seems that slide owners should hopefully be getting the 2.2 update in late july.
it could however be a hundred other things but considering this is the only marked timeline for an update on the slide, my best guess is that its froyo and then shortly after the OG mytouch will get an update as well.
it could also be an update in preperation for the 2.2 update.
i figured it was post worthy and i thought id share the news
Thanks for posting. Saw the roadmap somewhere, but didnt notice it had planned updates on it as well. Really hope they stick to this plan.
Cant wait for froyo. However Im sick of Sense and just wish I could root and get rid of it already.
I called t-mobile today to deal with something and the person I talked to said we were getting an update this week of somesort. Don't know if its 2.2 or not. I doubt it is.

Never again samsung, not even with a quad core 2Ghz cpu! At least Motorola is communicating about the update with its customers! My wife has the Cliq too and she actually doesn't mind 1.5. I tried to convince her to let me root and rom it for her but she wants to wait for OTA.

mine was the same way with her BH2 when we both had them and Eugene started putting out the ROMs that made the phone bearable... until I showed her that I had Nav and how the a2sd worked. after that she was hooked as soon as we got our Espressos she was on the boards 3-4 times a day looking for someone to crack root, hell she's tried out more ROMs than me now
I hope it is froyo or at least an announcement of it thanks for the update I saw the road map the day it was leaked but didn't notice the mytouch slide update thanks again

Yes it does because whenever it's released we're going to have to incorporate it into new ROMS. I meant it as a heads up. Also as notice to keep your ears to the ground for when we can get a leak.

No, it doesn't. This is not a post about android development. This is a post about an update to the stock software.
This isn't the "Things kinda sorta related to android development forum".

The real question here is... Will this update get rid of our root?
well if your running a custom rom you wont get the update so you wont lose root. other than that i dunno
hah! to be able to OTA you'd have to have a non rooted phone anyway... once you root, you lose the ability to accept OTAs but if you found a dl and flashed it, you would definitely lose your root... i'd suggest waiting for the devs to release an equivalent rom with the changes (which they will once its received) and flash that instead
My phone is rooted and I recived the update but I haven't installed it

This basically confirms there won't be a T-Mobile Froyo update for the slide. It would make no sense for T-Mobile to release this update, roll it out over a two week period till August 19th, then come out a week later releasing another update. The bug fixes in this release are just minor, nothing that couldn't have waited. And from the leaked T-Mobile road maps, this is the only planned Slide update for the rest of the year. It makes a lot more sense for T-Mobile to be upgrading the newer phones like the Vibrant, and get some of us Slide owners to upgrade as well.
This makes the work of all the devs here on Froyo roms even more important. Don't give up guys! I'm waiting patiently for a stable CM6 release...
You do realize this phone is only, what, two months old? It'll get a 2.2 update, it just won't happen for a while.

Appears T-Mobile starting tomorrow is rolling out 2.2 for the Mytouch 3g. Hopefully shortly after the rest of the mytouch line will get 2.2. Still kinda weird to leave out the Mytouch 3g 3.5mm jack, Mytouch 3g fender, and mytouch slide.
http://www.tmonews.com/2010/10/t-mo...ceiving-android-2-2-froyo-beginning-tomorrow/
I'm guessing they had to start somewhere and the oldest phone should get the first update. They gave it a two week window, so hopefully the rest of them will get it next, with the Slide getting it last around mid November.

Why wouldn't the older phone get the update first? (Plus the espresso is most likely the only reason its taking so long, if we were on stock then we'd probably already have it or it would be coming to us tomorrow like the original mytouch).
If you were using an older phone you'd be complaining the newer phones getting update before the old ones.
The 3G came out before the Slide, Ounc. How do you figure it's a joke?

Because what company you know takes a step backwards? No offense to mytouch 3g owners, but I have never seen anything like this. Has Apple ever updated. The old Iphones before the more current Iphones? Has. Windows done that? I could understand if the phones were 2 completely different phones. Like a Evo and G1. The mytouch 3g and mytouch slide are the same line of phones. The difference between these 2 are, the slide has a keyboard, better ram, better cpu, better camera, etc. Why wouldn't the more top of the line mytouch not get the update first? I completely understand that the mytouch 3g has been stuck on 1.6 for a while. I've had 2 mytouch 3g's. I stepped away from them thinking that if I buy the newer version (slide) I would be more up to date with both hardware and software. If I would of known then I would of just kept the mytouch 3g and wait awhile before I upgrade. How would the g2 owners feel if they knew that the g1 was getting Ginger Bread before them?

The reason is mytouch is getting vanilla froyo not that damned slide ui that tmobile threw on there. So they don't have to do all these changes they can just ship stock froyo. So its easier to ship.

I'm assuming that its getting Espresso because I read that it said something about changes to the UI plus there was mention in the past about the 3g getting the Genious button (virtual). I think the mytouch line is all switching over to Espresso if I'm not mistaken.

I don't think it's espresso sense purely based on the bullet point of having dedicated phone, all apps and browser shortcuts. That sounds like stock froyo. Espresso, at least with our 2.1 version, has dedicated phone, all apps and faves shortcuts.
Just a thought; everyone is so excited about a 2.2 update, I wonder if it's 2.2 or 2.2.1?

I don't see why not. The only thing that kept the G1's from running sense ROM's was the stock SPL was too small. HTC changed that for the original mytouch on up. A quick search in the magic/sapphire forum showed they ported it. It may be a stripped down version of it, like not having "my modes" themes.

I'm thinking a 2.2.1 update, HD should be getting it so if all else we just port over that one and be happy.

Unfortunately, I don't think we'll be able to port it from the myTouch hd/4G/ whatever the hell they call it next. With a 3.7" (or is it 3.8") screen, it'll be HDPI whereas the Slide is MDPI screen resolution. That's why we haven't been able to port ROMs from the Desire or any other HDPI device.

Are you sure they weren't talking about the original mytouch? The timeline for that phone was that the update was to done by the 25th and there have been no mentions of the Slide update anywhere else, or the other versions of the mytouch, fender, 1.2. I don't think the rep understood you or got things confused. I wouldn't bet on an update starting then.

Could've sworn they were the same size screens, guess my source was wrong.
But yea that would make it a lot harder to port over, but seeing as it is espresso then perhaps someone will be more interested in porting it and take that time to make it happen for us, that is if we don't see it for the mts for a while after the HD release.
Although Google could easily scale everything from HDPI to MDPI with the HD Espresso. They are far more experienced with resources so it shouldn't take that long for them.
I don't know, looks like it's still a waiting game of "You'll see it soon" with no word on how soon is.
Searched all night for the mts3g update and just found this

Interesting thought ... I wonder how much Espresso Sense has to do with the delay in development for the Slide. Also, I wonder how much (if any) Sense the original mytouch will get with the update. Additionally, how could a Slide with 2.2 be a threat to the mytouch HD? Features like a front facing camera, no keyboard, second gen 1Ghz chip and larger screen would probably be enough for the HD to hold its own against the Slide with 2.2. That said ... you may be on to something with your theory.

Idk about you, but with the speed of the slide i could do without the 1ghz processor. Slightly larger screen? Not enough to make too big a difference. No keyboard? No thx. Now it comes down the the ffc and 2.2 with sence. That is about the only real thing that could compell me.
Lets just hypothetically say the average slide user thought like me, theres just not enough to push us to drop a few hundred dollars on a new phone after just buying one 6 months ago (if that). If my slide had 2.2 with sence right now, i would be prefectly content to wait till the next mytouch that could really blow the slide out of the water and would laugh at the thought of buying the hd right now.
I honestly see myself holding onto the mytouch for at least another year, especially when 2.2 with sence arrives.

I always thought that having a physical keyboard would be a necessity for me, but since I started using SwiftKey, it's just not a draw any more. I can type much faster with SwiftKey than the real keyboard.

No offense to you, but we've heard so many dates, 10 million times about the update and still no froyo. Although, December 15th does sound about right for the update. Especially since the myTouch 4g and G2 are already released. We just have to wait till we get the text messaging stating that our update will be pushed to officially know.

interseting, for those of us sticking with the slide because of financial issues (lack of 500$ to buy g2 or mt4g) this is great to hear.
It does sound logical and a better date for it to come. Will be waiting for this to come. I'm sure it will come with all the bloatware just like the original 2.1 espresso but not a biggie we'll have it ported and customized soon after release.
*crosses fingers*
I just got off the phone with cc and they told me that the date of the 15th is for the mytouch and that there is no date as of yet for the slide. Is everyone positive that they are clearing telling them what phone you are talking about

I'm also having the rooting issue and that's mainly because I have a mac.

Even on windows 7 it won't work for me. For whatever reason, when I try to apply the E..... .zip file, when I press up, it goes into a reboot. I might install su.apk tho, I have the ./exploid working.

He said Froyo, but it might be Gingerbread.
I guarantee it won't be gingerbread.

The slide is one of the hardest phones to gain root access. If I had a windows computer it would be much easier. You should search youtube I'm sure there is some step by step videos for rooting the slide on a windows computer.
I doubt it'll be gingerbread if/when we get the update.

Its just as difficult on a Windows machine as it is on a linux machine.

The mytouch already has froyo. 2.2.1 to be exact. You mean the fender edition & the slide? I forget where I was reading it but the 3.5mm one the slide and the fender are all getting froyo around the same time period. So most likely it'll start with the fender then the 3.5mm then the slide. I could be wrong though

It's quite simple if you guys read the instructions. Took me less than a minute my first time.
First of all let me say I work for Tmo and 2.2 has no date set yet for ANYTHING in the mytouch lineup except the original Mytouch3G as stated previously. (except the mt4g obviously as it comes with it) The MT3G update was moved back to dec 15th for some reason, and NOTHING was announced for any other MT devices yet, period. I don't care what some CC rep told you, it's simply not true.
