HTC Magic to receive Android 2.2
by James Tromans on Jun 23, 2010 2 Comments">2
France’s second largest largest carrier, SFR, have announced that customers with the HTC Magic will receive an update to Android 2.2, aka Froyo. The news comes via their blog, and it also states that (unsurprisingly) the Google Nexus One will also get this update. The main thing of note having read this announcement is that the newer devices such as the HTC Wildfire and the HTC Legend have gone unmentioned. These are newer devices but there is no word on whether they too will receive the aforementioned update. Right now we can only assume that they will, but SFR have …
Android 2.2 coming to the complete myTouch 3G range
by James Tromans on Jun 10, 2010 0 Comments">0
According to TmoNews, the myTouch 3G range will enjoy the benefits of Android 2.2 in all its legitimate glory. No need for ports, this upgrade is straight from the cyber-houses of HTC themselves. The screenshot, courtesy from TmoNews, clearly states that T-Mobile are planning ‘to update existing myTouch 3G phones – not just our new Slide – to the latest software version, Android 2.2. It will mean that users of older devices can get the most up-to-date software.’ Unfortunately, there is no news on what kind of timescale T-Mobile are working to with these upgrades. In truth, this is probably …
MyTouch 3G Slide from HTC
by James Tromans on May 17, 2010 0 Comments">0
Nearly two weeks ago we announced the launch of the MyTouch 3G Slide from HTC. Some of the highlights of this device include the slide-out QWERTY keyboard, large 3.4in HVGA touch-screen display, pre-installed 8 GB microSD card and a 5 megapixel camera. Unfortunately the price was clearly lacking from the original press-release and specification sheet. It would now appear as though the guys at TmoNews have come across this missing piece of information. According to the images available to us, the device should set us back $149.99 on a 2-year contract . There may be the possibility of a $50 …
Video: Android 2.1 for G1 and MyTouch 3G, thanks Cyanogen
by James Tromans on Apr 29, 2010 0 Comments">0
In short, soon you shall have Android 2.1 on your G1 and MyTouch 3G. Good times. Sure, it not an official release, but let’s live a little. According to the Twitter updates, we can expect to see this thing become publicly available this evening. If we’re being totally honest with you, it is possible you have had Android 2.1 on your G1 for a while now, but chances are the video cam didn’t work and the landscape gallery was a little funky. With the new build from Cyanogen, no such problems should arise. As usual you will have to ‘root’ …

by Michael Oryl on Feb 10, 2010 0 Comments">0
T-Mobile has just officially launched a new versions of the myTouch 3G with new hardware and software. For clarity’s sake, let’s just call it the myTouch 3G 2010 since T-Mobile has decided to muddy the naming waters by using the exact same name – just as it does with its Sidekick line. So, the myTouch 3G 2010 features a new 3.5mm headphone jack, more RAM (288MB), and ships with an 8GB microSD memory card now. It also features the Swype text input system, which is a personal favorite of mine. Check out my video to see how it works. The …

by James Tromans on Jan 15, 2010 0 Comments">0
Back in early October 2009 we covered an interesting story regarding a Fender branded myTouch 3G. Things have now come to fruition with this device and we can expect to see it land on January 20th. A trip to Fender’s website reveals that Eric Clapton is endorsing the phone, and we should find a copy of a number of well known hits such as “Wonderful Tonight,” “Layla,” “My Father’s Eyes” and “Rock ‘n’ Roll Heart” already preloaded onto the device. The device also comes packed with a number of other songs by artists including Avril Lavigne and Wyclef Jean but …

With a hot new handset fueling growth, Android is ending 2009 on an upswing. [via MobileCrunch]

T-Mobile is running a promotion that offers the myTouch 3G for $50 less than usual from today through end of the day Monday next week (December 21, 2009). That means you can get the Android powered smartphone for a pretty reasonable $99.99 with a new contract (or extension). The company is also running a promotion on accessories through the end of January 10, 2010. If you buy a myTouch 3G gel, case, or shell, you can get a second accessory for 50% off (must be of lesser value).

by Michael Oryl on Nov 25, 2009 0 Comments">0
Best Buy put out a release touting its selection of 5 Android smartphones that are available for $99.99 this holiday season. The HTC Hero and Samsung Moment are down to $99.99 from Sprint’s normal $179.99. T-Mobile’s myTouch 3G and Motorola CLIQ are down to $99.99 from $149.99 and $199.99, respectively. Best Buy is also offering the HTC DROID Eris for $99.99, which is the same as Verizon, but Best Buy notes that with any of its phones, there are no mail-in rebates to deal with to get the good prices. Oddly, the press release doesn’t mention when the prices go …
T-Mobile adding carrier billing and new channel to Android Market
by Michael Oryl on Nov 04, 2009 0 Comments">0
Since I’m short on time, I’m just going to quote the story I wrote for MobileBurn.com. Here it is: During a keynote at Open Mobile Summit today in San Francisco, T-Mobile USA CTO Cole Brodman talked of some of his company’s plans for the Google Android smartphone platform. The most interesting piece of information that Brodman revealed is that T-Mobile will launch carrier billing for the Android Market on its smartphones later this month. This will allow customers to have Android Market purchases charged directly to their T-Mobile phone bills. He also said that the carrier will begin offering its …
T-Mobile USA adding 3.5mm jack, faux wood finish to myTouch 3G
by Michael Oryl on Oct 07, 2009 1 Comments">1
T-Mobile USA is soon going to roll out a re-styled and slightly upgraded myTouch 3G according to a press release. The new T-Mobile myTouch 3G Fender Limited Edition will sport a wood grain guitar finish and will be equipped with a real 3.5mm headphone jack, something the original myTouch 3G is missing. No word yet on pricing or an availability date, but it should be ready for the holiday shopping season. I’ll post a photo or two when our media relations friends on the west coast wake up and send them to me…
Android 1.6 (Donut) slowly filtering out to T-Mobile G1 and myTouch 3G users
by Michael Oryl on Oct 01, 2009 9 Comments">9
According to one of TmoNews’ sources, we should already be seeing select users of the T-Mobile G1 and myTouch 3G getting OS update notifications for the Donut based Android 1.6 build. If you have gotten the update, let us know in the comments below! Update: It’s official. I just got word from T-Mobile’s PR firm. “The rollout of Android 1.6 (Donut) to T-Mobile’s G1 and myTouch 3G customers is now underway. The over-the-air update will be delivered to all G1 and myTouch customers in the coming days.”
RadioShack now offering T-Mobile myTouch 3G (and other phones)
by Michael Oryl on Aug 19, 2009 2 Comments">2
As part of its previously announced deal with T-Mobile, RadioShack today announced that the T-Mobile myTouch 3G is available at over 4,000 of its stores, located across the USA. A selection of other T-Mobile devices are also available, though the press release makes no mention of the G1. Since the release doesn’t bring up pricing, I’d probably have to assume that pricing for the handsets will be in step with T-Mobile USA’s own retail locations.
