T-Mobile G1 getting officially an update… Android 2.0?
The T-Mobile G1 is the first Google phone in the market and the first Android phone on T-Mobile’s line up. There are many complains about this phone because the G1 wont get another mayor updates or it wont be recommended to upgrade to Android 2.0 because hardware issues. We have saw also the T-Mobile g1 running the Motoblur. Apparently this is over. AndroidSPIN has reported that the G1 is getting the Android 2.0 or 2.0.1 really soon.
- G1 system partition: 69120K
- T-Mobile Android 1.5: 68780k
- T-Mobile Android 1.6: 68800k
The G1 has about 70 MB available for the operating system to be installed. Android 1.5 used 99.5% of that space and Android 1.6 was no different.
- Emulator Android 1.6: 61216k
- T-Mobile Android 1.6: 68800k
- Emulator Android 2.0: 70964k
- T-Mobile Android 2.0: ???
Android 2.0 running in the emulator already goes over the G1 system partition limit. The T-Mobile version will likely be 7-8 MB larger. For those of you who are curious, the myTouch 3G (and most other Android phones) feature a 90 MB system partition and will have no problem with Android 2.0.
That will be a great upgrade and good news for the T-Mobile G1 owners. We are going to have our eyes open for this.

Really it’s an awesome device. The T-Mobile G1 comes with an Amazon MP3 store application, I like the same very much.
