T-Mobile USA delays Android 1.5 rollout by a few days


Looks like it was too go to be true. . . well, semi-too good to be true. T-Mobile has delayed the release of Android 1.5 (Cupcake) by at least a week. Now, everyone will have the OTA update sometime a the beginning of June. T-Mobile has said that it seems that the build is still being "optimized" to "ensure optimal functionality and smooth delivery,". What we find funny is G1 users in the UK have received the update already, so what is this? If anyone knows what is keeping them from releasing it let us know, other then that we will just chalk it up to developers needing to find tune somethings.

Cupcake update is on the way, by the 25.


John over at PhoneDog has found a source showing the schedule of the Android 1.5 (Cupcake) release for those of you on T-Mobile US. His source is Michael Martin over at googleandblog and he can't be 100% over the reliability on it but hey, it gives us all hope. By the looks of the report the Cupcake update hasn't gone out until May 14 unlike the original report of May 11th. One good thing of this post is that everyone, I mean EVERYONE, should have Cupcake by or before May 25th as shown by the statement below.

"The initial roll out of the CupCake update has started today Thursday, May 14th reaching only a lucky .1% or 1/10% G1 owners.

The below numbers are what T-Mobile anticipates the reach of the CupCake OTA over time:"

  • Monday, May 18th - 5%
  • Tuesday, May 19th - 15%
  • Wednesday, May 20th - 30%
  • Thursday, May 21st - 45%
  • Friday, May 22nd - 60%
  • Saturday, May 23rd - 75%
  • Sunday, May 24th - 90%
  • Monday, May 25th - 100%

So, everyone. . . lets keep our heads high that this is truthful, just don't do anything I wouldn't do... hahaha.
