How many Android phones are still running with 1.5?

jthreads · December 11th, 2009, 11:25 AM

Hi everyone,
I was just wondering how many devices are still stuck with Android 1.5?

Thanks

Eaglesfan9106 · December 11th, 2009, 01:48 PM

~~plugsmustard~~ · December 11th, 2009, 05:18 PM

My htc dream is. And if I could put android on my iPod touch 2g, it would be running 1.5

pavirotten · December 11th, 2009, 10:03 PM

My Eris is as well, for now. I know that a version of 1.6 has been released, but it hasn't hit my phone yet.

mbk.2k3 · December 11th, 2009, 10:51 PM

htc magic on rogers is still running 1.5

and rogers, being the liars they are, most likely won't be pushing any updates any time soon

Decon · December 12th, 2009, 12:23 AM

My Eris is too

rizzla · December 12th, 2009, 05:31 AM

I heard somewhere its suppose to be like 25% or so. Still on 1.5 on Hero

scollie · December 12th, 2009, 09:19 AM

Samsung Galaxy still on 1.5 and no news on whether we'll ever get 1.6/2.0 etc.

vido.ardes · December 12th, 2009, 09:28 AM

According to the google anylitics data, 24% of users are still on 1.5

Damn more people went out and got droids lol.

We are becoming a serious minority, we could shout discrimination. Maybe we should make "Free 2.1 for all" banners.

tjbunch · December 12th, 2009, 01:00 PM

my clik is on 1.5 and it's only a couple of weeks old.

kgmallory · December 12th, 2009, 11:09 PM

The Moment has only been out just over a month; shipped with 1.5 and is still running it. No expected update until Q1/Q2 of 2010.

realsickclown · December 13th, 2009, 07:14 AM

The moto cliq is still 1.5 and maybe it will for ever? But it is a facny device that has me content for now. But "google goggles" would be cool to play with

canrunin · December 20th, 2009, 08:24 AM

my eris has had the update and it still says 1.5

pkopalek · December 20th, 2009, 11:49 AM

1.5, at least for me with my Eris

still lets me show it off to everyone (even people who don't care about phones/pda's), and make them want to buy one.

Will 2.0 do that better? maybe insofar as having better speed? Who knows. But this HTC Sense and Android OS are stunning.

I don't have a problem with 1.5. I know people who left iPhone for the HTC Hero, and would never go back, despite perceived speed differences.

Crimson Win · December 22nd, 2009, 03:27 AM

Ya.... My Eris is on 1.5, but I guess everybody els is toooo pretty much.

JDuc · December 23rd, 2009, 01:16 PM

wow - 27.7% on 1.5! That's pretty substantial!

And to think, I have a paid for app that doesn't run on anything lower than 1.6...makes me kinda upset, especially since I paid for it while it was still compatible with 1.5...

snydez · December 27th, 2009, 08:27 AM

my Hero does

KE4NYV · December 31st, 2009, 11:07 AM

Eris 1.5 here, only three weeks old.

magicfab · December 31st, 2009, 10:48 PM

A *lot*, see:
Android Versions by Carrier

Kspeelman · January 1st, 2010, 10:16 AM

My Cliq is

mosho · January 6th, 2010, 09:24 AM

Im in mexico with America Movil Carrier, (telcel)/dext and is still on 1.5 Im so wishing We could get an upgrade for 1.6 at least since my battery life drains really fast, camera apps gets freezy and there are many other little issues with the phone that Im pretty sure will be corrected with the update. Something really concerning is that google is doing nothing to give us all costumers firmware update, specially forgetting people in latin america that is buying their phones! Bad luck for us, the carrier here would never exchange the phone or take it back just because there is no software update...
Any ideas of when will dext be receiving update???

theslacker · January 8th, 2010, 02:40 PM

I just bought an LG Eve (GW620R) last week and it has 1.5

2FR35H · January 11th, 2010, 12:45 AM

My samsung behold gots 1.5 WHEN ARE WE GETTIN 2.0?? when 2.6 or 3.0 comes out I mean really?

DarkPhoenix · January 11th, 2010, 08:50 AM

As stated by another moment owner, I have 1.5 on mine. Coming from the land of Crackberry, I am used to being able to get the leaked OS and having it installed on my phone to play with until the official OS is RTM.

I am generally happy with 1.5, and that comes from not playing with 2.0/.1 yet.

JMontague · January 11th, 2010, 08:57 AM

I feel the Nexus One will always be two steps ahead of my Eris, and one ahead of the Moto Droid.

Wolfedude88 · January 17th, 2010, 08:45 AM

I had the G1 then it got updated to 1.5, decided I wanted a iPhone so I went to AT&T. Couldn't get signal, went to Verizon. Just recently bought the Eris since I like the looks better than the Droid. Now I am stuck with 1.5 again for now. Sucky thing is the G1 now has 1.6, lol.

Unkljohn · January 17th, 2010, 05:12 PM

The Hero I bought on Thursday is on 1.5

Wolfedude88 · January 17th, 2010, 05:18 PM

Yep, it will be for a while too. Don't worry it is supposed to be upgraded in the first half of the year!

lutin · January 17th, 2010, 05:31 PM

T-Mobile Pulse stuck on 1.5 here.

Nexus1 · January 21st, 2010, 02:29 PM

damn which one is on 1.1??

guanako · January 21st, 2010, 03:31 PM

I am sure we will see more 2.1 by next week

TRENCHF33T · January 21st, 2010, 09:38 PM

Samsung Moment purchased this afternoon is running 1.5

ArtooDetoo · January 22nd, 2010, 11:06 PM

1.5 with an update to follow to 2.1. HTC is getting their Sense ui configured.

guanako · January 26th, 2010, 10:02 PM

what a good way to *bump* the thread.

TheBiles · February 3rd, 2010, 12:21 PM

Hopefully HTC gets the Sense UI worked out quickly. They've already announced 2.1 for the Hero.

wmscott2k · February 6th, 2010, 10:11 PM

does anyone have some site that will tell me if the moment will be getting this upgrade

Thefoodman52 · February 6th, 2010, 11:08 PM

This site wmscott2k... we have the information and confirmation that it IS going to happen, it's a question of when... and for that matter how. OTA updates are bunk for us apparently. Thanks Sprint! =S

I agree, this is definitely the site that will know as soon as it is announced.

i figured more phones have 1.5 then anything else. What phones even run 1.6? Must suck to be them, stuck between Sense and 2.0.

pepperdro · February 9th, 2010, 07:21 PM

I am running 1.6 on my G1, but the Cliq that is coming in the mail will be on 1.5... Damn my luck!

Salad · February 10th, 2010, 04:04 PM

Running 1.5 on my T-Mobile Pulse.

Huawei (the manufacturers of the device) have announced that they're working on a 2.x ROM that's scheduled for release some time around April. However, T-Mobile were cagey when queried about the update. Hopefully they'll get their act together and we'll get on OTA update, but it may be that we have to use more illicit methods to run the stock 2.x ROM rather than the branded Pulse ROM when Huawei finishes their work. This does seem awfully cloak and dagger though, and I don't see why T-Mobile would deny their Pulse users 2.x.
