Will the Mytouch get the official 2.1 update? if so, when? Or would it be better for me to root my phone and get it that way. How tuff if it for a guy who has never rooted before?


Thanks,
Robert

The reports are out there which say MT3G should have gotten 2.1 already but I am going to hold my breath on that.

The problem with the current 2.1 roms out there is that none is perfect and all lag a lot on MT3G. MT3G does not have the hardware capabilities to run 2.1 and that is where all these problems come from.

I doubt if there is an original release of 2.1, it would have all the feature of a nexus one.

Rooting is irrespective of the type of rom you will loading on your phone. It is very simple if you follow the steps as it is.

Seeing as the inferior-spec'd cliq is going to get it, there's no reason why we shouldn't either..... at least those of us who have 1.2.

There's already been lots of sources saying that the newer mytouch is going to receive it. Original mytouch owners already have a huge selection of roms to choose from anyway.

Wasnt the latest and greatest rumor that in May mytouch would get the update???? Its may 2nd!! Still nothing.... To everyone holding their breath... I would stop, you'll more then likely suffocate!
im with you sensie, i think im going back to iphone, my myt3g has had nothing but problems, i should go ahead and order the nexus, but the iphone was way smoother and didnt have to deal with force close and other problems:D
