T-Mobile myTouch 3G to get official Android 2.2 update

I gave up waiting for slow-tmo and updated to cyanogenmod 6.0 now that it is stable. Unfortunately I need to load all my apps and restore my data.

I called T-Mobile customer support yesterday. I was very disappointed about their response. Unfortunately, if your device is myTouch 3G (like mine). They DON’T have any plan to give us any Android 2.2 update. They confirmed that only sent update to myTouch Slide, NO PLAN on 3G. And they confirmed our machine will be 1.6.
Wtf, I told them tmobile should listen to existing customers and take care of our needs. They don’t care, I told them tmobile is focing existing customers to leave, they didn’t want to response that and ignored. So basically, I am leaving tmobile, tmobile really sucks. They don’t care if you stay or leave.

Check out the mytouch forums. They kicked me out for 48 hours for complaining about not receiving the update.

Not sure what they are doing thinking they can just do a jedi mind trick on their customers.

I just spoke with t mobile and the update has been released it just does not come to everyone at once. So wait patiently it is coming!

@killtheunicorn I don’t believe Tmo either. So what gave with their stupid magazine and the big announcement of “no phone left behind”? I’m going to call myself and get a response, then file a complaint with the PUC if it turns out we’re screwed. I would want out of my contract without any penalty – that article is a promise, in print.

SIMPLE…….TMOBILE SUCK

SPENDING TON OF MONEY ON MAGAZINE ABOUT no phone left behind………. you suck………..i want out of my fcking contract …..

Just got the notification text from T-Mobile that “a 2-part Froyo Android OS upgrade” will be sent to my phone sometime within the next two weeks!

It’s official…All mytouch 3g will get the update between 10/13-10/31/2010..Mytouch 3g w/slide is post-poned for now.. Sorry guys I know we all have been waiting for this for a very long time!!!!

Though word has leaked out over the course of the last week, T-Mobile has officially confirmed that it is offering Android 2.2 Froyo via an over-the-air update to the HTC-made myTouch 3G. The myTouch 3G was the second Android phone to hit the market, and first debuted in February 2009. It went on sale in the U.S. later that year.
The update process began on October 13, according to T-Mobile, and the software is being distributed in waves to myTouch 3G users. T-Mobile expects the process to last until October 31.

T-Mobile also calls out the new Faves Gallery. This gives customers quick access to their 20 favorite contacts. Users can scroll through it and se all the most recent communication with their 20 Faves, which includes text messages, email, social network updates, and so on.

Other improvements include changes to the camera and camcorder software, more language support, improved Google Maps and YouTube applications, and the most up-to-date versions of Facebook and Twitter.

This update applies only to the original myTouch 3G. If you were one of the lucky few to score the myTouch 3G Fender Limited Edition or the myTouch 3G slide, the update for those devices isn’t quite there yet.
