T-Mobile G1 handsets gaining Android 1.5 already? Not Mine

Under: Google Android, Phone Software
Date: April 30th, 2009

The latest word on Android is that engadget mobile is reporting Android 1.5 is already available with T-Mobile and that the carrier may have already begun distributing Android 1.5 over the air to T-mobile G1 owners.

Now we have heard that Android 1.5 will bring with it customisable widgets, virtual keyboards, user interface tweaks, messaging enhancements and other Android goodness, so most T-Mobile G1 toting people are awaiting its arrival.

Anyway, being a T-Mobile G1 owner I can say that as yet I personally haven’t been updated to Android 1.5, nor has there been any notification to my G1 about it will be updated shortly, so I guess I’ll have to wait and see.

This is Great news! Anxiously awaiting 1.5′s release.
I haven’t seen any notification, and my firmware is still 1.1. The fact that it’s update-able and a commitment from Google that the software would be backwards compatible with G1 were the main selling points in my opinion.
