T-Mobile G1 (black) CNET News
T-Mobile G1 (black) price range: $149.99
Reviewed by: Bonnie Cha and Edited by: Kent German Reviewed on: 10/15/2008 Updated on: 06/19/2009 Released on: 10/22/2008 The good: The T-Mobile G1 features a full QWERTY keyboard, 3G support, Wi-Fi, GPS, and Bluetooth. The Google Android operating system offers good integration with Google applications as well as access to the Amazon MP3 Store and YouTube. As more applications become available, the G1 will also become a more powerful smartphone for all types of users.
The bad: The G1 doesn't include a standard heaphone jack and lacks Microsoft Exchange support. There are some annoying design quirks that make the smartphone uncomfortable to hold and difficult to use. You can't save downloaded applications to a memory card. Speakerphone quality wasn't the greatest.
T-Mobile G1 users seeing OTA update, but it's not Android 2.x ...
I've had the radio update on my G1 and Magic this week, there's been a noticeable improvement in 3G reception, people on xda-dev report better wifi signal and throughput as well.
Eclair though, seriously, have you tried Android 2.1 on a G1? Go and install OpenEclair. Even with the RAM hack and Wes Garner's experimental fast kernel it's painfully slow, so much so users are reporting their phones sometimes don't receive calls because the OS can't launch the Dialer app fast enough. Memory and compcache on the phone are almost full on a plain boot, never mind running widgets or apps.
If that's Eclair on the G1, I don't want it, and there's no way carriers will run with it it. Donut is plenty fast, and seems to be as good as it gets for this trusty 18-month old phone. Time to move on.
That's funny, my G1 is almost blazingly fast with OpenEclair. I'm running OpenEclair 1.2.2 and it's amazingly fast, faster than stock, but obviously not Super D fast or FastTest fast. That's with no ram hack, using GDE with 7 screens and all are filled up. Oh, and I also have live wallpapers running. :)
Seriously, I can't wait for OpenEclair 1.3, because it's looking like it'll be awesome. It wouldn't be THAT hard for T-Mobile and Google to make a 2.1 update that runs quickly. It's already not going to get live wallpapers, so it should work quickly enough.
