“The “cupcake” branch that we have is a work-in-progress on the next major feature set for the android platform. Things like video recording don’t work because… surprise, it’s not yet done. The current code that exists as cupcake is almost but not quite feature complete, which means that it is pre-alpha — no QA at all has started on it yet, since the basic features are not quite yet implemented.”

Similarly, Mike Lockwood (Google) stated on the [android-platform] Google Group (29-Dec-2008): “The video recording support in cupcake is still under development.”

KICK BUTT!!!

What about thoes of us who have unlocked g1’s I haven’t had to experience an ota update yet so I’m quite in the dark. So I guess my question is will it work out on att the same way? I mean will I get a notifacation from tmobile, google, or att? Thanks in advance, Justin

Ahh, I did think of a manual update after i posted that but it is nice to know. Thanks, Justin

That’s great , i guess i spend so much time looking at these blogs everyday that i finaly figured i’d leave a cmmt, Good things coming for 09 as far as the G1 cant wait till the 11th or possibly before, CUPCAKE !!!

What about us with tmobile and no data plan? Here a few people with out data plans got the rc 30 build over wifi you think this will be the same for cupcake? I would asume yes as it is the same source that sent out the rc 30 right?????

I have not got any updates and I bought my phone off ebay someone already used it once but I did a hardware reset and activated it with tmobile what’s wrong with it and will I get the cupcake thanks.

@ c rich….go the your setting,then scroll down to About Phone ,then scroll all the way to the bottom to Build Number. Under if you see something like this > kila-user 1.0 TC4-RC 30 and some numbers then your up to date.

I can’t seem to find this anywhere..

Has there been any speculation on the video resolution in the cupcake update? Are we talking 176×144 with a frame rate of 15?

HTC Touch, HTC Wing are that ballpark..

If it is, I think most people would cry on their cupcakes…

At any rate, I’d like to see QIK going myself.. I was hoping it would drop today on my birthday (and Elvis’).. Elvis likes cupcakes, lol..

Yet, another baseless announcement. How can it be here in 1 week when the people programming it are stating it,s not even done yet.

@ Michael,
I’m going to have to believe/agree you. Tmobile knows this update is serious and greatly needed. They need to push some sort of update to fix major issues. This can’t wait any longer and I would have to assume it is coming next week.

@Micheal
Just wanted to know are you sure this will be happening tmrw the 11th or is it one of those it should happen things?

Excellent!!! This a very crucial update, they shouldn’t push this back anylonger its time to release it. Does anyone have any info if bluetooth “beam” will be included in the update?

Hey what are we gonna do about alternative applications for office mobile. I heard something about “quickoffice”, and “openoffice” that will enable g1 users to have access to ms word files. any validation out there?

Do we know anything about whether the UK and US updates will happen simultaneously?

This is gonna be sweet, especially the virtual keyboard.

Steel has a virtual keyboard and it makes it so much easier to type in quick bits of text…

Cols last blog post..Teenagers nightmare hit 10,000 downloands on IPhone and G1

Do u know if they update really did come out now???

Is the browser going to be google chrome for the update?

Since the update this morning I have trouble with one of my E-mail accounts. Anyone else have this problem??

I didn’t get the update yet. Did I include adobe flash jake or for those who got it?

My installed apps were gone after the update!

mmmmm….nothing on the web about the update being pushed out today….I want to belive…but yeah I am doubting it

I’m with you FishFace…..i want to belive it but i think that some people are telling porky pies!!
Only when i see photo evidence or i get the update i’ll belive it.

So come on Jake Roberts & nadazilch show us what your device info says!!

StoneHead

it hasnt come out yet……dont listen to the ppl like jake who say it has. it should this week though.

So can we assume that t-mo has started releasing the update? And would anybody know how those of us that are using our g1 without a data plan would be able to get the update?

So lets just clear this up real quick for whoever is getting the updates, can you guys post on here what rc you are on and what you were on before update

OMG! where’s the update!? im sad now… TT__TT

no one?

Don’t hold your breath Michael, there’s no update as yet!! I bet we will see it this month but as far as billy Bull$#!t and his mate are concerned i’m 100% sure they aint got any update.

So wait how did that jake kid get the update and everyone else in this blog didn’t get it yet he better show us some pictures… we don’t like liars/

I want to believe it but I mean on two different forums no one that posted that they got an update has responded back to any questions that we ask after wards

Well guys I seen in the amrket someguys leaving comments of the cupcake update but they might be the beta testers

5:00 pm here and no update – I have looked on multiple forums and have not seen any indication of an ota…

@Eric….I also run the g1 with out data plan, I got the RC30 build when turning on my wifi…So if the RC30 was sent out the same way then yes we should be able to get it.

Also eric if you have problems getting mms and what not you can check out my post on another forum what I have listed the setup for the g1.

@ rey, were did you see this post?

i was just surfing but only i heard of 2 people with this update the guy in this blog and the guy in the market they both said there old apps were delete due to the cause of the update. yet no one from this blog except that guy who dissappeared has gotten the update i heard or read ones usually turning of the phone a couple of times will search for updates but i will keep you posted, i would recommend if any body gets the updates please comment

guys im sorry to tell you this but our g1 will be replaced in may by the new g2 http://www.cellphonesignal.com/t-mobile-g2-coming-on-january-26th-09/

Guys, I wouldn’t believe anyone who says they got the update yet because there is no proof to substantiate any of their claims. Lets keep in mind here, this is the internet and so far all we have are rumors and speculation.

I’ll keep my fingers crossed with the rest of you that we get the cupcake update in the next few days but I’m not holding my breath until then.

But, like others have suggested, anyone who gets the update, please post details and screenshots, not just vague he-said she-said garbage about a blog you read that you don’t even post a link to.

Still nothing but I am confident a major push happens tomorrow. Lets cross our fingers…

I just wish it would go out already so I can stop checkin all the android sites. The anticipation is killing me.

quick question… phone currently disconnected…would i still get the ota update???

Well cupcake didn’t come today but guess what did. True multi touch!!!! check it out http://www.androidforums.com/showthread.php?p=19353#post19353

Marcus,

Why are you confident a major push happens tomorrow?

Yea will sumbdy let me know about the update too…email address is bruh87@gmail.com I’M me PLZ I want this damn up date SHIT!!!

Hey marcus man I’m countin on it to I got all my toes and fingers crossed hopping I get it when I wake up b4 school ha if anyone gets it or has more news about it hit me upp. PEACE

Well I really didn’t find out about the memo leak until

Yesterday and I found it on this page

People from the market and some bull blog sites are saying they have got there update today

Mainly what I am trying to get at
is if these guys don’t read about the leak

I want this update as bad as everyone else and I thinks gonna pop up one by one but by the 15th we should all have it I hope

then how did they just so happen to get it the day it was sapose to arrive. Look under g1psycho app in the market chris. Comment

There is no update as of yet, called t mobile about an hour ago , all they said was sometime this month. Just a lot of speculation out here, they also said it will be (over the air update).

Made that call at 8pm pst.

nothing yet guys ill keep you posted for 2 more hours

Cupcake…… this is the only blog out of so many more… that I have heard of a release date. What I can’t understand is this, and I belive I’m speaking for every g1 user in america who know about this update. You ready???? If its coming out sooooon so why isn’t all over the place on google, t-mobile and other site. Yes we know about the cupcake update is coming soon but why the hell won’t they give us a specific date and time. I am not a man of asumtions “forgive me if I misspelled it lol I’m only 19″. But I want fact and only facts and don’t tell me ANYTHING THIS BIG COMING OUT UNTILL WE KNOW THE REAL DAY ITS COMING OUT BY T-MOBILE

Personally, I belive that this update is well worth the wait. So I’ll just go about my normal daily activities, and be surprised when I get the little beautiful pop-up box saying there is an update. Haha. Google has actually done a great job, with how fast they have responded to our desires. This is a large update, that brings many wanted changes, not many necessities. So when the update comes people should be thankful, even if its in April!

i think i got the pop up notification last night around 9:33, it said UPDATE CONFIGURATION or something like that, but my phone was freezing and i had a bunch of covos open and i acidently denied the update..
if thats what it really was.

my friend did the same thing.

IS THERE A WAY TO GET IT BACK?!?

@Toluca…Try and restart your phone. Hopefully your phone will check again.

I love my G1, but I can’t get over my issue with the battery life. Even with the GPS and Wi-Fi turned off, and the screen brightness turned down, the battery can’t last a whole day. I wish they would fix this issue before adding cool new features that will drain the battery further.

Leahs last blog post..leahchristine: Have ’till Friday to decide if I’m trading in my G1. Battery life sucks. I need reliability more than I need gchat on my phone. Suggestions?

I don’t know what people are doing with their phones but i charge my phone over night i go to work from 830am to 8pm and then i dont plug my phone in till i go to bed at like 11:30-midnight. And considering what the phones do the battery lasts a pretty decent amount of time.Its not a phone its a computer that happens to have a phone on it.

Man i wish i didn’t know abt the update i keep on checking news for any further info. best advice for everyone just let it be when it comes it comes.

Well its 3 and no update also I called t mobile and they said we have not heard of ne new updates comen out so all of this could be bull…..

If you use you phone for more then phone calls its gonna die I have to charge it 2 times a day lol it sucks bad

I use my phone for more. I play game on it while at work look up phone numbers, listen to music. and still lasts me all that time. once and a while it will drain quicker but thats when i power use it but any cell phone with power usage will do that

People need to stop calling TMobile about this. We will get the update when we get it. All the time spent answering the stupid questions that 1500 people asked already is time that they can’t spend doing real work like getting updates out.

If you have a new issue call TMobile and report it. If you are just don’t have anything better to do call someone else.

I agree with you jon, because it would be annoying everyone calling asking same question, but the people answering the phones are not going to be working on getting the update done.

Actually I used to work for TMobile when I lived in Savannah. They have this weird color alert system and when one department gets to many calls, they pull the tech people to help answer phones. Sidekick was its own department and whenever there was a rush of calls about a sidekick update they would pull anyone who knew anything about Sidekicks to help answer the phone because to keep hold times low. I would imagine it is the same way for the G1.

Well my apologies to you jon, i was mistaken and you would know more due to being an employee

when is it going to come??

(Le Sigh) Dude, I’m Dying For This Update. I Hope It Ain’t BS, Cause Then My Feelings Will Get Hurt =(

Former employee. That place is crazy. You get graded on how happy you sound on the phone. You aren’t allowed to say the same thing over and over. You are forced to say things like “It is wonderful sunny day at TMobile.” or “Thanks for calling TMobile where we love our customers.” You can say anything happy but you can’t say it over and over and it can’t be plain. It really is obnoxious. Anyway, I just feel bad for them because the last thing you want to do is say “I can understand how you would wonder that and I really appreciate you calling to ask.” when it is the same obvious question you have answered 154 times already.

Its not like u gonna do anything when your feelings get hurt. So quit whining lol. My g1 lasts the whole day but mainly depends on what I’m doing with it. Plus if I disable data I get 2 day easily. I find that its fairly dependent how you charge the phone, whether on or off. It seems the phone battery charge is optimal when charged off, just confirmed this with ma test. Oh well that’s life and this update seem more of a burden with all this speculation.

Well just wanted to throw it out there that I didn’t receive anything. I was very confident it would come today with so much speculation but unfortunately I have seen nothing. Anyways, anyone who receieves it, please comment as soon as you can so I can go have cake and celebrate or something. Peace.

question you guys have the g3 network correct?

I saw a memo about a memo about a conversation about a dream that cupcake would be released on February 30th.

Is this update a bunch of bullshit or is this real. i’ve been browsing but i didnt see anything credible

You need 3G to recive updates?

I got the extended battery for my g1 from an online company called seidio. Last the whole day with internet music email and 3g use without ever hitting the yellow/red on the battery meter. Woot!

I say keep calling T-Mobile at least once a day until Cupcake is in the wild for the G1.
I don’t care who promised what to whom or who did or didn’t read what. If this doesn’t get applied, T-Mobile deserves bad web for stalling.
And I’ve been an app dev for 20 years so don’t give me the “but you don’t understand what it takes to get it on the G1″ BUNK…

Its on EEE.. I understand QA, but some of their arguments are purely about making sure they get their version TMo-Locked.

And as far as rolling it myself, well, lol, I get paid to program, tyvm. My phone isn’t worth my time. But I’ll take a few min to rip TMo a new one for being as lazy on the G1 as they are on My.TMobile.com

All the features that this update is offering should’ve been included when they released the G1. This phone is supposed to be an iphone killer. One handed operation and finger friendly and everything. It is beyond me that they didn’t include a soft keyboard. How the f#!@k are you going to be a competitor with the iphone with the most hideous of all music screen and no soft keyboard and the worst 3mp camera with no flash. A waste of the accelerometer built in. Even Watching videos on Youtube doesn’t fill the screen completely with video there is a thick black border around the video.

I am not gonna hold my breath at all with this one. The G1 will be lucky to get some af the features from the OTA. I’m almost positive that the cupcake update will be ready and especially for the new G2 aka HTC Sapphire that’s coming. No official release date yet but its branded with T Mobile and is gonna be running Android. Check out phonedog.com for more details. But um sure someone at xda-developers.com will do something for us to have the full cupcake update on our G1. Those guys over there are genius’s.

LIAR PLEASE GET OUT OF THE BLOG THANK YOU

Wtf why ppl playin games?

WONDER WHY YOU SET IT UNDER GUEST, ITS FUNNY FOR YOU TO SEE HOW MANY DUMB PEOPLE TRY IT OUT.

For all those people whose batteries don’t last go to the market and download power management. I put that on my phone and it lasts forever?from 6am to about 11 pm and I use my phone a lot for music,surfing the net,and phone calls. Every once in a blue moon I will have to charge it but that’s only cause I didn’t let it charge long enough when it wasn’t in use. Kill your battery then charge it for like 10 hours that helps also.

Too many people now have this false idea that G1 and Android are synonymous, and there are pinned threads such as “what updates do you want next?”. It leaves people with the false impression that the android team is actually working on stuff that will update or effect the G1 in any important functional way. If you read the goggle forums it becomes clear that the version of android for the G1 is a one-shot deal riddled with proprietary code and the whole cupcake “update” is really sort of like XP being developed over windows ME. The G1 has Google’s version of ME. Don’t get me wrong, I love the G1 and Android is cool, but I hate to disappoint you folks who think cupcake will be coming to the G1 in an OTA update. It won’t. Marketing and a smoke cloud of misunderstanding fueled by wishful thinking has everybody confused. Start getting used to the idea that the G1 is static and Google is looking to the future of the OS itself, not the G1 even though it has gogole printed on the back. Am I bitter? Yes. I started to express my public input over at google groups, but I thought I’d make a suggestion here too since the forum title is sort of misleading.

Unfortunately, in reality cupcake is none of those things.

I’m not sure what you mean by that. Cupcake is a stabilization branch
for the next platform release. I agree we’re not pushing changes out
as quickly as we would like – we’re working on it. The plan is to
merge all changes from Cupcake to master except where there are
changes in master that supersede the Cupcake change.

We (the Android team) cannot discuss future deployments of Cupcake (or
any other release) on G1 (or any other device). You need to take that
up with the vendor.

On Jan 7, 6:54 am, Disconnect dc.disconn…@gmail.com

Ok Layman’s terms please. What in the world does this mean: “Cupcake is a stabilization branch for the next platform release. I agree we’re not pushing changes out so quickly as we would like – we’re working on it. The plan is to merge all changes from Cupcake to master except where there are changes in master that supersede the Cupcake change.”

I’m not a developer or programmer so I don’t understand all the jargon.

Thanks for simplifying and clarifying.

“Cupcake is NOT coming to T-Mobile G1″ – Baloney. Just looked at the internal memo detaling the improvements and fixes in a retail store today.

just remember folks, “the cake is a lie.”

Cupcake is a conspiracy theory made by the government to sabatoge the minds of young children enabling the creation of a brain tumor that hence forth shall be known as Bill Cosby.

To those complaining about the g1 having bad battery life, its true it sucks but over time it gets better. I’ve had my g1 for about 2 months now and when I wake up from 9am and go to class at 2pm to 9pm and not charge till like 3 or 4 in the morning my battery is still good. Its just a matter of time. At first it bothered me but I was like ” its whatever I’ve waited for a phone like this and I’m not going to just back down and return and get something like the samsung behold which I thick sucks” anyway about cupcake I’m just going to wait and wait and when you least expect it… its there and you’ll be jumping up and down like your freaking 6 years old… so be patient

I just got off the phone with T-Mobile and they confirmed the cupcake update we all are waiting on is a fuckin bullshit myth. So all you people that are starring at your phone waiting. go ahead and set it down the g1 is as is. the Cupcake is for the upcoming g2 aka saphire

Ok im going to have to call t-mobile in the morning and find out if this is true cuz tmobile never give any info like that they usally say they are not sure

i dont think so cause when the g1 came out its running on the first andriod software… am i right or and i wrong? well anyway its the first andriod phone and it has its bugs and lacks of sh×+ but cupcake is just an update and its like a test whether or not its going to be fine on the g1 soo… lets see what happenes… and everyone just dont be negative… since you guys are saying all that stuff show me proof of cupcake not coming.

I’m startin to lose hope on this one…

Why if there is really a g2 why the hell would they give it a cupcake update you fuggin moron how stupid could they be just as stupid as you NANO get an iphone and get the hell of this blog.

my friend works for t mobile and he said he hasnt heard anything about a cupcake update so im starting to belive this is all a hype =\, i hope it’s not!

How much is Cupcake going to cost?

I got it!!! Using the onscreen keyboard now to type!!!

Video recorder awesome.
Faster internet.
All great!!!!

I’m so effing happy I finally got it. I think we’ll all have it by the 15th.

Ray..i want to see a screen shot to belive it..
im excited like everyone else..but at the same time almost skeptical.

if we all get it by the 15th
i want to say NAY to all the naysayers =p
haha

All I gotta say is I want sum cupcake, well hope we all get it soon if itz true, latter Gz

if cupcake isn’t a myth.. will it be a 12:01am type thing or some time during the day.. t-mobile doesn’t NEED this update in order to keep the momentum of g1 over the iphone.. but it would be nice to know that the g1 is upgradeable like everyone says it is.. if not.. then I’m happy with what I’m stuck with.. I just wish.. as most of us do.. that the sky is the limit with this phone.. hopefully htc google and t-mobile get their acts together and gives all of us what we want.

I asked a tmo account representative today via livechat about the update and she said they were available and being sent out randomly but that I could not have one now, so, who knows.

I think he is lieing. I for 1 sec beleaved him because

Of rey was posting with us and waiting for this update

But look at the old post of rey and this post of ray

He’s just a copy cat trying to get us jump started

Ray = Fraud

Seeing as how T-mobile knows nothing about this update; I would assume that, if it is coming out, it won’t be this week… due to the time it would take for T-mobile to receive it from google and then send it out OTA…

he is not lieing i got it also early in the morning it has every thing as planned very good update very happy and there will be a g2 out very shortly the phone will be the htc sapphire or the htc hero

Hey michael who was the source that gave the leaked memo to this forum?

Yesterday night I call T-Mobile and they said that they don’t know anything about any cupcake… I think that everything started with somebody playing around with that stupid RUMOR and now look where all went.

look who ever says they got it shows us a pic of the build number insted of bulling us all so michael explanes how to do it so thats it

i beleave none of what i hear and half of what i see

So… is the update a fake? Cuz I’ve been waiting for it

if cupcake is a lie how did they get footage of an onscreen keyboard

I don’t neccessarily think its fake, but I think it’s gonna be a few weeks before they will release it(especially now that the Palm Pre is coming out and seems way more advanced than the G1 and Iphone. They are gonna need to level the playing field in a hurry! it’s THAT good… and I love my G1, but the Pre’s OS is awesome). here’s a link to video of it in action…
http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/13/palm-pre-everything-you-ever-wanted-to-know/

.

Hey guys,

I havent got the update yet… but a little icon called “folder” randomly appeared on my homescreen when I turned on my phone in the morning… when I click on it, it behaves like an ordinary folder… and opens a window thats empty… you can even add your icons from the homescreen into the folder…

I dunno if I caused the folder to appear by doing something randomly… or if its some sort of precursor to the update…

what do you think?

cheers, from LONDON

New thread on T Mobile Forums – may be useful in finding info.

is it fake? Don’t tell me this is like finding out there’s no easter bunny

D-MANs last blog post..

look everybody the cupcake update for the g1 is not happening trust its all rumors the cupcake update is for the g2 phone which will be anounced on jan 26th

*sigh* comeonnn Tmobile, do us proud.

im going to kill the faker ray when i find him, no guys i dont have the update im looking for every source possible.

The bottom line is we all paid for a phone the we thought would be the best phone on the market. With the video recorder and flash player missing, I’m realizing that we only paid for an upgraded text device. I actually have to admit it, but the iphone is still the best phone. I’m thinking of selling my g1 any buying a iphone. Don’t want to, but I need flash and a video recorder.

yeah ive been looking around googling all kinds of odd questions to find a real answer but nothing came that close i had a website but on there it said there is no solid date to when it will be comming out. So we all have to wait till the 15th i suppose and ill keep you posted on anything new i find, takecare.

thats it guys im tired of waitin i will have to develop it myself give me about 2 days to try to complete it but i dont know if bluetooth stereo is possible but on screen keyboard and video record are possible

i think we all just a bunch of suckers! we bought a phone that we all thought would be great but all we did is make tmobile and google rich off a product that could have been made better and they know it. as far as cupcake who cares if you wanted something better go buy a lab top, a phone is to call on, not to cry about cause it doesnt have this or that so grow up its not the end of the world.for the people who say there batteries die all the time go buy a car charger its not the end of the world, its just a phone.

okay, no one invited your angry ass to come over here to badger the phone you belligerent fool, if u dont care about the phone then dont comment no one wants your worthless two cents k thx bye

Question, do you think that maybe they will not release an update for the G1 because then no one would buy the G2? If they kept updating the G1 to have better features, then why bother buying the next G phone?

I for one do believe there is somthing coming to the g1, we have seen videos of the softkey, so whether or not it is gunna be the “cupcake” everyone is talking about or a developer app somthing good is coming to the g1. Just gotta be patient more then anything.

I believe that the update is real because didnt the sidekick lx get an update that gave it a camera and stereo bluetooth. If a crappier phone can those types of updates, why cant the g1 get them.

Hey guys first time caller long time listener….lol..
Here is what I think. Everyone has an opinion about when or if this update is coming out and what it will have included. The source is readily available at google’s source website.(http://source.android.com/roadmap/cupcake)
I think everyone needs to calm down. I too, was so excited when I heard about the update. I googled and scoured the web trying to find it for download or force ota to my phone but, alas, no cupcake. I think from all the sources I have read that this may or may not be an actual update and you may be stuck with what you have. Also, I think that it has been hyped up to be something that its not and that everyone thinks this will fix everything when it won’t. You are only signing up for a whole new list of bugs and issues. I hope it comes soon if it even exists and I hope everyone can take a xanax and calm down. No one seems to know anything and everything they say is conjecture.

well im just a cool gadget kinda guy with a g1 and would love to learn how to start developing g1 apps. im waiting patiantly for the update like everyone else but quick question is it pos for a developer to make a video recorder for the android market or is it not pos?

From what i gather with the g1 is that it is tmo’s answer to the i phone and it has its plus and minus you cant expect an exact replica of the i phone it has to have tmos touch. but with this open market i think that the poss for the phone are only limmited to its subscribers and developers i would really hate for t mo to just come out with a g2 and leave g1ers out in the cold and i dont see it happening anytime soon but who knows. i really cant figure out for the life of me whi both the i phone and g1 have come out with no video recorder. i can scan barcodes for god sakes

I’m not sure if its possible as an app, but by god I hope so

I’m with you alex WHAT THE HELL. I can scan a dam little debbie but i cant video my girl. What kind of world are we livin in…..

you know i love the little strobe lights and psyco knife and games and flah light and all cuz it makes drowning out my girls rambling a million times easier lol but why hasnt anyone figured out how to record video i wonder if the stock g1 even has the hardware to be updated to do it. Anyone here a developer that can point me in the direction to start to learn how to develop?

lol seems in the only idiot sitting here staring at this blog waiting for people to talk

@ michael
No Bull I got it I thoght you guys were playin with a bunch of Myth talk. I can prove it… Someone tell me how to do a screen shot and I’ll post it

hello

Hello every1,
I spoke with a T-mobile rep, and he confirmed that there is a
“Cupcake Update” but he just couldn’t give me an exact day….and yes he said it would be OTA!

@G1 man
Well he posted it in a post way up there somewhere or you could simplify your life and take a picture of your build number which you get to by going to “settings” then scrolling all the way down and then go into “about phone” and scroll all the way down again. Its the last thing there. Take a picture with a camera. Upload. Everyone here thats ripping their hair out can crack open some beers and celebrate.

What city are you in G-MAN?

D-MANs last blog post..BigMell added 16 photos.

people are making no sense why would they make an update for a brand new phone that hasent reven came out yet stop saying this update is for the supposed g2 its bullslagga.

Oh G1 Man how I hope you’re telling the truth.

I don’t think so its been posted for awhile and no proof from gman

LIES FROM THE G1 MAN i can get the open source code number for the g1 i have the one for the iphone i help developed some of the emulators for it since i had a iphone before jumping to the g1 era…….. i know its possible to load hte video cam since we managed to do it for the iphone but it took a bunch of space for a 1 minute video

Ok guys this phone the g1 that all of us thought was gonna be the best phone for the next half year. Was a joke, tmobile was horrible at advertising it and to tell you the truth its an embarassment to have this phone. Compared to the iphone it is nothing. The app store for iphone has over 50 thousand apps the g1 has about 500 and its been out since october. there prob isn’t a cupcake someone just wanted to start a rumor. Tmobile obviouslu wouldn’t lie to 80 percent of its customers and say that they don’t know about a cupcake. Because if they say that there isn’t one then people are gonna sell their g1s and get an iphone. So if you think that there is a cupcake that makes this trash phone up to date then its not gonna happen. I could go buy a regular touchscreen phone and get everything this phone has and spend about 200 bucks less. It doesn’t even have a flash like that’s rediculous the sidekick 3 had that god dammit. Imma go buy myself an iphone as soon as I put this thing on craigslist

this is why i bought a g1… i had a sk slide which has a faster processor and at the time newer os than the sk lx but t fn mobile decided to only release the video ota to the lx and not the slide. so i said fu and was gonna get an iphone. but want to stay with tmobile so I prordered a g1. I’m not interested in having a phone that tmobile is gonna just forget about. I sincerely hope that this is not the case and that an ota is coming soon even if its after the 15th.

@ “EVERYONE”

who on this blog sent me an email?

???? hopefully g1 man

the update will be ready when its ready if there is even a update who nos i hope so

here we go again….hope its real….really

Imo I think it will randomly update 1 by1 bcuz I am a former sklx owner and I heard about an update for the sk.1 of the employees has asked me if I got it yet and I didn’t but after about a month or 2 it finally came.so I hope this is real and I hope g2 is bull bcuz I added another line to my plan just to get away from the sk and have this”cool” if you must phone…I just think it could have been a lot better.

has not sent yet got a strange email but didnt open attachment correctly not sure wat else to do???

WHERE’S MY UPDATE???!!!!

Okay i just got off the phone with a tmobile rep and a g1 specialist, it is real it is not fake and it is OTA but the trick is, they have started it and the order goes as the first people who pre ordered it, then everyone else. she said it might take a couple of days but it is definantly real and it is with the video cam, the on-screen keyboard and what ever else was mentioned above. WOOT so for everone else just be patient and it will pop up on your phone saying upgrading or something of that sort.!!

aero jus wait til 12pm..my hopes aren’t high any more. Even if it doesn’t come out, I just hope someone makes a vid recorder app. Then ill buy a extented battery and I’m good.

Ok g1man I’m, in nyc maybe it will be herw soon

D-MANs last blog post..BigMell added 16 photos.

I cant believe you guys are actually falling for what this guy says. Nobody has the update.

Any one know when this update may come to UK? or we still in position when we all beleave in pony tales… I feal like a kid again. Vaiting for some little program who fix everything. This is realy not the phone I wanted..

So, I just got off the phone with a T-mobile rep from the tech end of things. I finally got a real answer… before today, no one seemed to know anything about it… but todays conversation brought concrete answers, though not the one I wanted to hear…
Cupcake is real… but… it probably won’t be released for quite a few weeks due to bug fixes.
So probably not until mid February.

We’ll all have to be very patient…which is hard…cause I WANT IT NOW!!!!

UPDATE! hasnt hit yet,

people are getting impersonated e mikes is not e mikes im stll waiting for g1 man email and i dont know if armin is really armin so he can confirm that tmobile customer reps conversation e mikes did not get update

e mikes=fraud
ray=fraud

Armin confirm wat you stated on conversation with rep thank you.

Guys I got the update just be patient its coming..

you know…some of us just want good info. even if its NONE. Too many kids on here just want to see there name on the page and cause 192 bs comments. as far as i’m concerned all this talk about who you are, or who you know, or what you’ve heard( even the moderator ) doesn’t help the cause. it only makes a lot of noise. tmobile’s official silence is deafening, maybe this time they will wait to release a product that is FUNCTIONAL and complete, which is what they should’ve done in the first place. If Tmobile was really concerned about the satisfaction of loyal customers, they would: 1st, replace the battery that can’t keep up with the phone that they released(Mine drains while on the wall charger doing nothing). 2nd END THE SPECULATION. 3rd allow those who are ticked (me) to upgrade at the lowest cost or get released from the contract. whaddya think. Is this unreasonable?

Im sorry but after reading these post im completely annoyed. What is the big freaking deal with just waiting you guys act like this phone has been out for a year hell not even 6 months. Just shut the hell up already about the update it will come when it comes. They have G1 ads all over tv posted on the bilboards up and down 95 especially in the maimi area where im at. Its not like tmobile is abandoning the g1 im sure everyone at tmobile including the trash men have heard people complaining about what the phone should and doesnt do. get over it. T mobile altough good customer service has never been good at keeping there product software up to date hell i nearly upgrade to a new phone every year. From the looks you know there going to update something but i look forward to to upgrading to a G2 in a year its just how tmobile has always done things. But this cupcake is BS its not happening anytime soon for G1 and you can read that directly at google blogs where some of the developers themself say it isnt. So i say get over it and enjoy your phone it still works without the update or sell it and get something else new you can complain about

Ok so I jus spoke to a t-mobile rep and they have confirmed that they’re is a cupcake update she has no idea when it will be released because its still being developed. So just be patient. & I also asked about the “G2″ and she said there is no speculation of it in tmobile

yep… i just got off the phone with the pda dept. i called to get a replacement battery and threw in an update question at the end. and pretty much got the same answer. flash, soft keyboard, vid recorder being worked on but not ready yet.

and just becasue i wanted and exxtra battery i called tmobile for a replacement as well. And theres no information on and update for G1 at all. so you guys can wait for cupcakes til your blue in the face your better off making some in the kitchen becasue its certianly not coming to the phone this month

Did they approve a battery replacement?
They told me that they wont be replacing batteries!

i dont think they officially approved that yet. the rep first stated that they werent doing a replacement for the g1 batteries he asked some questions i gave him very good answers and then he said he would send a replacement to my address should be there this week. also told me a site i can go to get a particular charger that would charge the phone and the spare battery that i will now have. tmobiles customer service has always been the reason why ive stayed with them.

Thanks man… i just talked to another rep…who IS gonna get me another battery. and she also said that Google is sending the OTA for cupcake… and it’s not going to everyone at once…but like the kid said earlier… in order of purchase…so maybe he wasn’t lying!

I love how no two reps have the same info.

World is so strange these days.. we have such a peace of technology and best competitor for beating iphone. And company’s who created this item just leaving their baby out on the street. They just need to fix some bugs and they will sell much more of these phones. I realy hope that we will see update as soon as possible just because people will start sharing with their bad experience and all this thing will realy die. I realy like G1 I see a realy good potencial t-mobile don’t f***ck my chrystmas present

Just wanted to ask if anyone really got the G1 update…I’m living in south Texas and me and my dad still haven’t had any notification about an update…please tell the truth…I’m going to call T-Mobile and Google about the Cupcake update after school.

I f you go to the tmobile site and look at the spec for the G1… it now says: Video Playback- Watch your favorite videos, even YouTube, anywhere

and if you go to the services tab.. it says
Text, Instant, Picture & Video Messaging

Save your voice or share special moments. Send and receive any type of message you want, in any combination.

This has been right under our noses and no one had bothered to check the phone specs on tmobiles site… this is pretty much as good as gold when it comes to the G1 getting the update…for those who didn’t believe!

Here’s the link!
http://www.t-mobile.com/shop/phones/Cell-Phone-Detail.aspx?tp=tb3&cell-phone=T-Mobile-G1-with-Google-Black

sounds good, im gonna call tmobile now. but before i do, are the replacement batteries extented?

About the battery issue, I found a really simple way to drastically save battery. If you know that you’re going to be in an area without reception or that you wont use it no matter what, put it in airplane mode. I seriously wont lose one percent over three hours of my battery life when I do this. Maybe this is like common info but I thought I’d share it with everyone.

Is this possibly the update we have all been waiting for?

http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=oNf7ZQ7IiCc&feature=related

check it out…

@sean
wow you are a dumb ass that page is talking about the phones features now not the update you idiot. My cousin works for google in nyc and he told me that the update is done and now it is just up to tmobile to send it out. He said he heard that there was the 15th of jan date set. but as of now he hasn’t heard anything else. it up to tomible now

The guy who posted the comment with the tmobile site.. it said that same thing since the phone came out. And even if that owuld hve been a new webpage it still says nothing about softkeyboard video recording none of the new stuff

@sean
whats wrong with the browns? lol they suck we all know. but when did u call tmobile to find out about the cupcake update?

the cupcake update is not coming on the 15th it will be ready when its ready we have had no comformation thats its ready or anything so just all be patinet it will be worth the wait

hey guys how is everyone many fights have happen, since i last commented and i wanted to ask about the battery are they charging for the new batteries?

omg i just got the update and it rocks its has everything except for flash but i can now video recored at last yessssssssss

well for the people who say its going to be the 15th well if it doesnt come tomorrow im going to smash my f***ing phone and get a real phone. I hate to say this but i will get an iphone. CUPCAKE please come tomorrow

Simon – proof please!

michael martin have u received an update yet? have u heard anything?

hey everyone. ive never left a comment before but ive been glued to this site for a couple of days now and i decided to confirm what sean has stated. I called tmo 3 minutes ago asking about the cupcake update and the rep stated that it is DEF out and has been snce the 11th or 12th. its not going out to everyone right away like sean stated but is currently going out to all g1 cutomers 1 by 1. she was well informed and im sure everyone at tmo now knows the answer to these questions. hope this helps

@rosemi if the update is out then y havent they released that it is on its way. i think they r just saying that so people stop calling them

Cupcakemyth – if you don’t think it’s coming then quit whining and go do something useful!

@simon r u a liar. we does everyone have to lie on here

Hey rey I’m getting a new bat. Its the same I think but the bat. Only has a 90 day replacement so call quick

@ nickedynick i know its coming i just want to know when. tmobile told me it was coming but when

Cupcakemyth – sorry, just getting frustrated not knowing if anyone’s actually telling the truth! I’m not sure why ive been on here so much tbh – the UK version will probably be released after the US one anyway…

@cupcakemyth, has tmo ever announced the previous updates? at least make a big fuss announcing that rc29 or rc30 is finally out???

NICKEDYNICK i know im frustrated too but i really did call tomobile and they told me it was out but in the order people purchased there phones. Isnt the paid apps coming out with the cupcake update?

dont see my comment

had popup and told me i dont have enough space! deleted all my downloaded programs and waiting again.

got my replacement battery

so how is everyone feeling

its now 1am in uk still no popup

@ rey have u received the update yet?

has anyone received the update yet? Send prove if u did

@ “everyone”

Is it me or does some of these a** holes get off by tellin lies??? i mean you must realli do not have a lyfe!

they dont have a life except bothering other people

T-Mobile has just sent me an email that there is no Cupcake Update and there will not be one. I am really p***ed off and i can’t believe they would do that to us. Someone needs to call them and find why its not coming!!!!!!!1

@ E.Mikes
Yea i think thats what it is brah. I think honeslty the ppl who say they have the upgrade are Iphone fags just really jealous lol…I to have an iphone 3g white and a White G1

im with u E. Mikes im sick of these lies people that probably have an iphone and are laughing at us.

Hello, i wanteed to tell you guys something since i am part of the the T-Mobile service I am in one of the call centers and like many of you know the so called cupcake update is ready yet we dont have any news of when it will be realeased yet that update will be here before the end of feb

Iphone fans are jealous. HAHAHAHA

wow i wonder is this a prank

@everyone

Does anyone really think this will be out soon.

what if there is no update

why cant somebody just make a video recorder like the iphone has simple

@rey

I know im wondering the same thing as you. What if this was made up by an iphone person to make us think we are getting the update but we are not. I hope thats not the truth

the iphone is a kid toy compared to the possible outcomes of the g1 yet since the open source code is locked to regular h@ck3r$ the apps are harder to make

Seriously ppl, are you going to start believing that the earth is really flat and that it being round is a giant conspiracy? I for one believe some of the people that say they got it. Think about it logically. Once they get it, what use do they have to come on here anymore. People are selfish. They just want to play with their new update.

Honestly,
I do believe the is an update, i have spoke with more than one tech at tmobile(and update specialist) they all confirmed of an update but did not tell me a release. This was told to me over the last couple weeks, even before there was this myth about a Jan 11 – Jan 15 release. guy just be patient and dont stress over this bull. I feel there is already enough turmoil goin on in this world, and dealin with all the bull(LIARS) on this blog wont make it any better.

i wrote a fake comment about there is no update to see what would happen and the person controlling this site deleted. I think they only want people to think that it’s coming and i really dont think it is now.

I agree with E-Mikes, lets hope for the best

@ E.Mikes

VERY VERY VERY TRUE!!!!

Plus look at the Bright side we already beat the iphone HA! take that apple

when i get the update i will take a pic for u guys cuz i know everyone wants the truth and i do to. i think E.Mikes is right too

Honestly,
I do believe the is an update, i have spoke with more than one tech at tmobile(and update specialist) they all confirmed of an update but did not tell me a release. This was told to me over the last couple weeks, even before there was this myth about a Jan 11 – Jan 15 release. guy just be patient and dont stress over this bull.

does anyone know about when the paid apps are coming to the market?

GUYS LOOK THE CUPCAKE IS A REAL
http://apcmag.com/google_boosts_android_with_cupcake_update.htm

i heard sumthin about espn havin apps you have to pay for….but its prolly juss some myth

I FOUND THIS ON A SITE:
A small but very sweet treat’: that could be the reason behind Google’s choice of codename for the first major upgrade to its Android smartphone platform. ‘Cupcake’ rolls a slew of updates into the open-source operating system, most notably an on-screen keyboard (similar to those of the iPhone and BlackBerry Storm) and support for A2DP or ‘Bluetooth Stereo’.

Browsing gets a boost with faster performance plus find and copy/paste features in the browser, which is now based on the latest (November 2008) WebKit core. There’s also the ability to record video and save MMS attachments – sure to be welcomed by the five people who actually use MMS.

Many of the issues associated with the mobile email client are swatted down including streamlining email account setup and new mail notifications for POP3 accounts, displaying cc: recipients in the message, more elegant recovery from POP3 connection failures and observing user preferences in displaying the date and time.

A sizable slew of the improvements in Cupcake were developed by the open source community and submitted into the public code repositories, and along with Google’s own body of work have now been incorporated into the final update. And while Cupcake began as a separate development branch of Android, it’s now been rolled into the OS codebase and thus will be available on all new Android devices.

is the G1 going to get better apps. Y does everything seem to be going so slow with this phone or should i say company TMOBILE

I’m getting sick of waiting for this update, and everyone is bs’ing about having it and so forth, show us pictures, or some type of proof, I’m like a kid on christmas eve!!!!

@Michael Martin where did u hear that the 11th was the earliest date. I haven’t seen anything and i think it would be all over the web.

Ok I gotta ask you guys something.

My phone phone has got cut times are hard lol but my internet still works

Do you think I am gonna be able to get the update???

@ gypsy

What exactly are you asking?

Gypsy what the hell you talkin about

just got off the phone with a tmo rep at 930. she said currently tmo does not support the cupcake update and she said she could neither confirm or deny whether or not it exists and is even ever gonna happen

Hey guys i been reading this blog for the past couple of days and i have searched the internet and i have come to the conclusion that i think that this update maybe a hoax. Trust me i want this just as much as anybody else but after further research i think T-Mobile sold us a beta testing phone so they Google would know how to perfect the Android OS. I hope to goodness that I’m wrong but from the info that i gathered that seems to be the case. But I’m going to keep my fingers crossed on the Jan 15th date but i seriously doubt that it will happen and if it do then I will be the 1st to admit that I’m wrong.

@ nick

my phone service is cut off but my 3g is still working

if cupcake is released will i be able to get the update

No I don’t think so….I believe u have to have tmobile service cause itz OTA srry

ight g1 geeks (lol) we got an hour to go! dont hold ur breathe tho’

how big is the cupcake file..

@ emikes

i checked my service state and it says in service

I hope I can get it cuss I been waiting for it for a while

And I don’t wanna pay 85$ this month flex pay

For nothing. If a cake pops up in morning good if not

Any body wanna buy a g1 lol.

I got the answer. Let’s all get on with are lifes and forget that the cupcake was ever annonced. I’ve been fallowing these comments for about a week because you guys are funny and hell but ill come ween its done or whent its your turn to get it since people say ins by date purchised

i hope this update happens already im tired of all this… cant wait till flash finally comes to the g1 also iphone users will cry hahaha

Ayo I phone killa I started holdin my breath when I heard it was supposed to come out startin the 11th hopefully it will hit our phones at 12:00 2night post as soon as u can if u get the update.DUECES

ay everybody I’m just gonna warn you now. if the update does come out tomorrow delete useless applications off of your phone because no one knows how big the update file is gonna be and with video recording I’m guessing its a pretting big file. I’m keeping around 15 megabytes freee because I have been waiting forever and do not wanna take any chances, I could just reinstall the other crap later.

Only 25 mins here on the east coast! I hope it happens but I really don’t think it will! Oh well I guess we will wait till april

Hahahaha itz not true no update!! This is an angey laugh!

5 mins

why april cupcakemyth?

1 minute for u east coast fools

Its the 15th and still no update I give up someone contact me if u get any good information! I’m done with this big lie! Its so fake and will never happen it seems like! I with I was screaming right now telling everyone that I got it but it looks like we have to wait some more

Well it didn’t happen sorry g1z!

Its 12:05 and nothing oh boy I wasted 1 week of my life waiting for this

its 12 nd no update..hopefull it comes soon

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1ytCEuuW2_A

Ok guys this is not another bs comment I have called t mobile a few times today maybe 3 or 4 and the reps keep saying different things the first time I called they said they had not heard of a new update and the last few times they said they heard of it and its not out yet. And that its a major update and its still in development and it could possibly take another month or so. Yes I kno no lies this is what was told to me this is the best answer I could get out of them … so I guess we will be waiting another month or so.. sucks but when it comes it will be worth it … google hurry up where waiting

Listen, you guys can’t just expect the update to come out at 12am. If the update is being released, then it will take a while. There are a lot of G1 users and the update will be sent out in a random fashion. This is how the send out an update, they have a list of G1 customers for example:

John Smith | 8185187361 | address | etc.
Frank Roman | # | address | etc.

And so on and so forth

What. Happens is the update will be sent out randomly one by one until it reaches the last person on the list…So with that being said, we all could have to wait a while. Its only 9:11pm where I am and I really wouldn’t be surprised if I don’t get it tomorrow or today for some of you. It would be nice to at least get it the 16th. That would be a nice birthday present.

Anyways, just be patient. It will arrive, and when it does, you’ll be happy. Chill out for those who keep nagging about it.

Cheers.

im CA 3 more hours to go lol!!

Ok I’m going to sleep I need it its been hard to stay up for 1 week lol well if someone decides to tell the truth let me know. I own a site where you can chat live from your g1 the site is http://www.wepachat.com just click on phone chat from the chat tab …. make a profile and to the mod of this blog great work and thanks for the info even tho they where wrong but it was fun I felt like a kid waiting for a new toy

Damn you again tmobile, is an update that should have been included with the g1 too much to ask for, give us a real answer, finding a real answer is harder than trying to find your father in harlem

@D-Man
Because they said it would be released sometime in the 1rst quater of the year which is jan to april. So I will probably be released at the end of march begining of april cuz tmobile is so slow. Which really sucks cuz I don’t want to wait and who know if it will even be here by then

did you guys u honestly think that a system update was going to simultaneously pop up on milliions of g1 users screen at 12:00 am. cmon be reasonable. on my sidekick LX I was the first one at school to get the over the air update that had the video recording and all that good stuff. if the reps weren’t lying it should be here by tomorrow but I’m guessing it won’t get to EVERYONE tomorrow but we should start to see some pictures getting splattered all over the web of cupcake and its gonna be everywhere. wait your turn. remember the reps said it popping up randomly one by one so my point is. it wasn’t going to happen at 12. but it will happen over the course of the day

all u guys who say that you called tmobile and got info on cupcake are liars because account reps dont get that info and thats who you speak to when you call them

Well does anyone know when the paid apps get to the market? That will hold me over until they decide to finally release this update.

I agree with timothy, u cnt trust the ppl u talk to on the phone at tmobile. For all u know, even tho they work there they could have gotten the same info they’re telling u off one of these websites

where the hell is this update… ive been lookin at this website and comments and im getting frustrated!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

this is sooo fun..

I think that t mobile will send a email when its time so stop all this

Okay I have no reason to lie to people whom I’ve never met and I didn’t talk to a rep I talked to a g1 specialist, I asked the rep and she said ill transfer you, so I talked to the g1 one specialist and she said it is true and it is going to be OTA but she said we didn’t have a solid date to when people are going to get it. If you have nothing useful to say don’t post at all thank you.

you’re welcome lol

I think we tmobile customer need to have little patience, as they say good thing come to those who wait;’;)

wow whiney people are so annoying! its coming out! just not to everyone in one instance. if i still wasnt sure then id be just as impatient but there are more than one of us here that have spoke to a g1 tech and heard what they said. depending on when u bought your phone determines how soon you get it!

Imm sadd…where’s my cupcake I’m in dallas texas and its 1:09am and still no update…I been on here for days reading all the crap put on here
Ok bye

@ ppl who say they received it,

Wat is the new rc# or did it not change?

@ everyone,

Does anyone know if the rc# will change? I would think it would but I don’t know bout this enough to say.

Haha if you thought that you and a million other people would get the update at exactaly midnight your an idiot. The update is coming but you probly won’t get it till later on today or tommorow

Hey rosemi I’m not sure about you or everyone here but I did my research on the tmobile website when I was buying my phone and used the tmobile website to look at what features the g1 had and it said video msg ! Now I open my g1 box mess around with my phone show off to my friends and family and about a month later its my wife birthday so I said let me record this and send it to my brother who had just got his g1 and guess what no freaking video! So sorry if we are whining and kicking and screaming but when you spend $179 + tax and $30 a month for the data plan and at the end of the day we got lied to the whining is all we can do oh wait I can do something else like call a lawyer and see if we can file a class action law suit against tmobile for mis leading ads for profit and get it all with the rest of the whining bloggers on here and sit back and have happy convo’s about how the cupcake made of a lot of money. I hate when people blog about us whine or complaining it like they can hear us and we are making their lives hard

D-Man I’m with you and I think we have a case

to Dman…where does it say that it records video??

i couldnt find it?

T-Mobile needs to shut up all the whiners and complainers by putting an UPDATE via their website or IM or whatever about their plans with cupcake update. Unfortuantely, our whining and complaining WILL NEVER END because EVEN IF T-Mo does OTA our most needed cupcake, we are going to whine and complain about our cupcake didn’t come in different flavors. Some might want sprinkles, some might not. Regardless, we will complain…Why??? Because we can complain, that is why they are getting paid for. SO EVERYONE, if no update by the end of the 15th for anyone or anybody, let’s ALL call T-Mobile and complain. MUAHHHH!!!

@mitchell

http://www.t-mobile.com/shop/phones/Cell-Phone-Detail.aspx?tp=tb3&cell-phone=T-Mobile-G1-with-Google-Black

@d-man I didn’t mean all of the people who had hope and believed that the update was coming, like u, I meant all of the people that didn’t and still don’t believe its coming til way later.
