g1

Not a very good port, but it's nice to see it running on an unsupported handset. At least they're trying.

Just to let you know, T-Mobile has issued a minor OTA firmware update (Android 1.5 build CRC1) for its G1 handset. According to the official description it includes "permissions fixes and other bug fixes". That's all there is to it.

With the upcoming release of the MyTouch 3G (Magic), T-Mobile has decided to drop the price for its popular G1. The smartphone is available now for $149.99 with a 2-year contract. So if you need an Android 1.5 based handset with a QWERTY keyboard, this sounds like a good deal.

Yes it's for real this time: T-Mobile has finally started distributing Android 1.5 over-the-air to American G1 users. Now anyone can download and install the update without wasting too much brain power. You'll get third-party widget support, virtual keyboard, email and messaging improvements, revised UI and much more, so what are you waiting for?

Here's a great deal for anyone who wanted to get T-Mobile G1 at a bargain. The handset is now available at Amazon for just $97.99 on a 2-year contract! That's by 302 bucks lower than the original price!

Don't waste time and order one now, while they're still in stock.

According to Gizmodo, the latest T-Mobile G1 Android firmware update version 1.1 is now available for everyone to download. For more details hit the source link.

For those who wanted to get a G1, T-Mobile will be releasing its Android-powered handset across several European countries. It's coming to Netherlands, Czech Republic and Austria by January 30th, on February 2nd will be available in Germany, and will appear Poland shortly after.

German users will be able to pick the phone up for just 1 euro ($1.33) after a 2-year contract.

Here's a video showing how the new Multi-Touch "hack" for T-Mobile G1 works with Google Maps. It uses only one modified Java system library, but has some limitations due to the locked of the X and Y coordinates.

Starting today T-Mobile's G1 is available in a new color - white - and I must say the new skin looks much more attractive than the originally available colors. In addition to that, Colorware now offers a choice of colors for your G1, and will fully customize your handset for just $190, or will sell you a whole device unlocked and colored for $770.
