BYEE!!
does it mean that we will have froyo built on the flipout whitin march 2011???
i think i'm going to buy it! *__*
yep thats right, on 1Q of 2011. im really happy with the phone
Hopefully they do release 2.2 on this phone but keep in mind Motorola is really bad with providing software updates to their phones even if they give a specific time frame. Many of their handsets have been promised updates and still have not received them.

Yeah, HTC was about 5 months late on the 2.1 upgrade for the hero
And now it's January 2010, didn't hear any news from Motorola... yet.
Sadly i'm not feeling a froyo vibe for at least for quite a while, despite what I would hope for

Hi all,
unfortunatelly there will be no Froyo update for flipout - Flipout will remain on Android 2.1. Found this information on official Motorola site h**ps://supportforums.motorola.com/community/manager/softwareupgrades?view=overview
The last time that I have bought a Motorola device, HTC had been the better choice...

NO
motorola update list , Flipout will keep 2.1 forever
ins't there anyway to subscribe at motorola to make them develop a 2.2 or even 2.3 upgrade for flipout? we can make a petition and let everyone sign!
Petitioning Cyanogen team would be 100 times more efficient, but I'm afraid Flipout is not widespread enough to interest devs, the work most probably won't pay off.
UPDATE
Opps, there is much more weighty reason than low install base, it turned out that all Motorola phones except the original Droid have a locked bootloader, so even if somebody would maker a custom ROM, it would be impossible to load it.

yeah, I agree... htc devices are more common and that's why cyanogen is working on them... is there a minimum number to reach to let them know about us? I mean, I'm still a touchpro2 user, but there's no other device I want but motorola flipout and it'd be much better to have some new software upgrades...

Hi,
I've just got my very first smartphone (a Flipout) and think it's great. I'm now trying to figure out what the best operating to use is. When searching for 2.2 information, I came across this great thread, but have also found a page which seems to suggest that 2.2 is possible, and wondered what anyone thought...
As I'm not allowed to post links yet, Google for upgradeupdate-motorola-flipout-motoblur_7560 and it's the top hit (venusvenera).
Assuming the above is a load of rubbish, would anyone be kind enough to give me a link to the best UK version of 2.1 to use without Motoblur, as there seems to be some confusing in the 'Full Orange Debranding Guide Very easy' thread, or at least I'm confused.
Thanks
if we pay a developer to port a 2.3.3 rom to our flipout??
Hi everyone. I'm a brand new owner of a T-mobile htc HD2.
UPS delivered today. But prior to receiving the phone I've been
reading alot of reviews, specially here in this amazing site.
After gathering all the information I could, still decided to go ahead
and get this wonderful looking phone, although I believe a
different ROM is defenitely needed (already seen 2 I like, Elegancia and
Energy - perhaps theres a few more to take into consideration).
Now here are my concerns.
1.-I'll be using the phone in the Dominican Republic. Do I need some type
of jailbreak for the phone to work there? It hasnt been activated here in
the U.S. It's a brand new phone in the box.
2.How do I go about installing the ROM? What would be the absolute first step?
Is there a guide?
Thank you in advance for your time and answers.
(please forgive my english).

Hi lads,
So I've been trying to root my HTC (Hero GSM 2.1-update-1 (3.41.61.31), originally Orange Spain, but unlocked by code) for few hours now, haven't managed yet. All the articles I've found about rooting this phone seems to be quite old and none seem to be more recent than the latest OTA update they've sent.
Even the latest version of Androot (1.6.2 beta 5) doesn't seem to work; I keep getting a Failed ! No ~~~ Fu goo ~~~ seemingly clueless error.
Found some more hardcore ways to do it, but then again, all of them quite old and no one confirming if for the current version - I don't want to end up with an expensive paperweight
I want to root it in order to install the latest Froyo ROM (Oh, and if anyone have serious reason for opposing to the villainrom 1.7, I'd appreciate a headsup)
Please, could anyone refer me to the definite how-to-root-this-thing?
cheers mates,
f.
Hi!
Are you from Spain? I am and I spent all night trying to root or upgrade to some kind of distro, but there was no luck...
I had the same firmware and update as you, and... at the end I'll get it! :]
The thing was just go to htc page to download the "latest" drivers for your HTC Hero Orange (important to be orange cuz if not it won't be able to download -also it would ask for a serial number, just write it on-).
What you downloaded now is just to downgrade your cellphone and override all newer updates... Then your phone will be back in time to 1.5 (dino-droids!)
Yeeeey! I did a big party after that ¬¬
Well... then all you have to do is follow the steps for a common htchero unlock... you can apply androot, and put some roms and that...
En mi caso, me ha quedado un Hiro! de la ostia! :] va sobradamente más rápido que antes.
good luck!

Good afternoon everyone, after all these months waiting for the official update to the Android 2.2 Froyo Galaxy3 i5800L of Brazil, I learned via email from a company that galaxy3 of Brazil will not be updated in the official version, what do shows how much the company is concerned about their customers, treating us like fools.
Here is mine indignation regístrate and email in Portuguese speaking on the subject
Sr. XXXXX,
Em atenção ao seu e-mail informamos que o Galaxy 3 não terá atualização para Android 2.2.
Desde já agradecemos sua compreensão.
Atenciosamente,

"Galaxy will have 3 update for Android 2.2".. Haha.
Well you can just flash any stock or custom ROM.
Yes but there are two reasons for the complaint, they promised to upgrade the first and second does not exist with with PT-BR.

Aah Samsung Customer Support guys are a bunch of losers who don t even know "A" of android. So don t listen to them. Maybe they will release it sometime in the future.
In the meantime there are very good stock and custom ROMs available here in XDA. Just use them.
thanks for the tips, but will try and return the device to request the return, because the company was a promise unfulfilled.
the worst is to see that in other countries like Europe, they are already looking to upgrade to 2.3.3, and beg in Brazil by 2.2, so the parents somo of the third world really, with global social inequality
I'm from Brazil and I'm using in my Froyo Galaxy 3.
Preferred not to risk any custom ROM so I'm using xxjp4 xxjpq on my phone.
This is a very estable ROM and a little more fast.
Language Pt-pt
Se quiser ajuda em algo amigo, pode entrar em contato que te dou meu endereço de email via PM
I just posted to show discontent towards the Samsung I have in Brazil, to look away only by poor sales of the device
As for the custom rom I tried, but the GPS does not work well, it's taking too long and does not update fast.
Even using the gps fix gps opt
thanks
Como esta a função GPS do seu aparelho com a jp4?
vc retirou os boot´s? para atualizar?

flash any custom or official rom from xda, official update is just a hoax, why wait for samsung and kies when you can do it by yourself, and there is a lower chance of bricking your phone. kies is more likely to f*uck up than you...

will it work I get a 2.2 rom and change the any useCSC and put CSC operator of my country because it seems that the CSC is the original configuration of the local unit and not the system he works, what do you think?
I don't know, maybe someone with more knowlege can answer this... but most of the stuff from 2.1 doesn't work in 2.2
EDIT: I have cyanogenmod7 on my phone, it is 2.3.4 gingerbread, it does have PT-BR in languages (and lots of others), BUT its still in early stages of development so stuff like sensors, camera and video playback don't work YET. It's actually quite usable, i've been using it for a few weeks now and i'm stunned by how fast it is even after installing lots of apps.

Hi all,
Been using MS2 for half a year and I find this MotoBlur is a pain in the x. Yesterday my friends were trying to get into my phone but blocked by the gesture lock. After several attempts, it was locked. MS2 required Blur account to unlock it. Unfortunately, after my several attempts, it failed. I cannot use my Blur account to unlock it.
During the attempts, I have checked with my Blur account on the computer and it was successful. I even changed the original password to see if there's any difference after that. Sadly no, still can't unlock it. Also the Internet connection is fine, so it shouldn't be the Internet that kept me from unlocking it.
Super desperate right not, my MS2 is now a brick with a sliding keyboard.
Thanks in advance!
Try using ur google instead. It usually asks for the google account.
Sent from my MZ601 using XDA App
Sadly no. I can't unlock it with my google account.
I even tried all the previous passwords for google and blur. What the heck. I started to wonder that's because Motorola has combined MotoBlur and MotoCast together, which causes the problem, somehow.
And it's gonna be a long weekend in Taiwan. Gosh I will be without a smartphone for 4 days...
Factory reset?
Sent from my MZ601 using XDA App
Well I can't even get into my phone, so it's hard to do so. I sincerely hope there would be some responses from Motorola before Monday. (I did write an angry yet polite email to them.)
And I think I'm gonna root it after the reparation. GOSH!
Try a hard reset? But it will wipe your phone...
Sent from my MZ601 using XDA App
Ugh, that's the last thing I wanna know! (sigh)
I want Motorola to give me a full length report re this ridiculous situation!
Its essentially up to you. Btw... do you back up using google or blur?
Sent from my MZ601 using XDA App
No I didn't. It all happened so fast. (also drinking made everyone do stupid things) My friends did not realize what they just did.
Also I did not realize that MotoBlur is such a horrible design. My bad.
I don't think its a MOTOBLUR problem. I think its a sync problem cause I've never had the prob. It maybe because your friends accidentally reset the password or something.
Sent from my MZ601 using XDA App
a factory reset will surely fix the problem.. you can still backup your data if you have a CWM working coz you can access CWM before it boots up.. hoping you have CWM!
bootloader e a solusao!
se voce restaurar o milestone 2 apartir do rsdlite! quando for colocar a senha do motoblur e so voce pular a configuração e depois ver o que aconteceu a respeito do motoblur dessa forma voce podera ultilizar seu milestone 2 perfeitamente!
se for problemas so com a senha, voce entra no site motorola e ver quais os procedimentos! no que eu puder ajudar estou aki!!!

Isaac, it's for the best that we all talk in English here, that way most of us that have the same doubt as the user you answered had can solve it without asking again in the forum. Also, I don't really think that morissett speaks portuguese.
Well the Moto repair center went for factory reset after all. Thanks anyway, I still think there may be some problems with blur.
