winmo update in march? - Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General

New to forums but love the advice. On the windows mobile website, it shows that touch pro 2 for tmobile is expecting a release in march. Is that just a typo?

the t mobile tp2 is already released

Even though he was referring to a device, the update itself has already been released too.

was it released w/ sense 2.5? VZW is getting theirs tested right now, maybe its a new version w/ sense 2.5
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=641112

It was not released with Sense 2.5. It has 2.1 still. And unless there is a newer update coming, that was the last one that will happen.

that is what I was saying, verizon is now testing a new rom with sense 2.5. the latest vzw rom is sense 2.1

They just released an update 1.5 months ago. Why would they release another? I just don't see it happening. Verizon never released an update.

yea we did....beginning of January I believe.

I was wrong, but that was on Jan 11th. I guess who knows. I still don't see it happening.

well they originally quoted october/november for the first update and it came out in march, so it is possible they put out a date they could never obtain again and make us wait on the edge of our seats for it.

I'd like to know where he got this date. I watch 3 different websites religiously, and I haven't seen ANYTHING about this.

sorry bout that, i was refering to the update. I saw the info on microsofts windows mobile page. at the bottom there's a link that says updating your phone. the chart says march 2010 for tmobile touch pro 2. and it says it the chart was last updated jan 28, 2010

Maybe it was referring to this update...

I flashed this ROM yesterday, EU WWE, so far works pretty good.

I don't remember the exact date it came out, but it was real close to that date. Also, it says that the dates are subject to change. Not to mention, it doesn't even list the WM6.5 update that was released. So, I would suffice to say that this is out of date info.

Nope. Those are HTC Official roms. This would be T-Mobile specific. Officially, those roms are not compatible with non-HTC branded devices.

I was in a SPRINT store and was talking with one of the tech's about an issue with the Calendar, and he was saying that a friend of his is an official tester for the new Windows Mobile 6.5.5 and it should be released by the end of March. I just hope that he was right. Shortly after he had told me this information, he was fired for telling me and one other person this. My wife wanted and needed to upgrade her phone, so now we both have TP2's. and when Windows Mobile 6.5.5 is released, we will both be upgrading. I will be holding on for the HTC HD3. That is from my perspective, a great phone with great specs.

Yeah but if version 9 has the same limitation, then it means we have to upgrade again ( if NFSFAN is still supporting Vogue) then....
I'd rather stick to something that doesnt require frequent upgrades... i hate configuring the phone everytime

Here I'm about to do what I warned you about in the main ROM thread!!!!! But I thought I'd post this here incase anyone else having the same p[roblem would read it.
Note to MODS: sorry!!!
You mentioned you were running V6r2. That one is build 21198, V8 is build 21501. These are both internal test builds meant for Microsoft only. While the timebomb was supposed to be defused The latest builds are "rtm" or released to manufacture. I don't think these would have timebombs in them, so even if NFSFAN messed up the diffusing (OR you and me added something that messed with it) I'm fairly confident V9 won't haven one in it.
Edit: I may be wrong, as NFSFAN has only been mentioning V9 lately, but I think he may release one last version of his 6.1 ROMS due to the new Manilla release. If not we can be fairly confident 1.31 (or your equivalent carrier ##) is the "final" 6.1 ROM. I would download it and keep it as a backup. 6.5 is still a baby and won't be fully refined until we actually see phones sitting on Sprint, Verizons and Bells shelves with it. HTC will probably greatly enhance touchFlo for it to nail Titanium. I don't know if our Vogues will be so obselete by then that NFSFAN will have stopped supporting them, but his last 6.1 release is very stable and bugfree.

AT&T to launch the Tilit 2 on October 6!!!!!

Finally the waiting is over

Updated and now says the Oct 18th
http://www.boygeniusreport.com/2009/09/18/at-to-launch-the-tilt-2-on-october-18th/
now the ATT bashing should calm down...when this release with 6.5 out of the box and only gsm with 3.5 jack then we gonna be see some envy look from tmobile and international versioin...worth the wait
It has not been confirmed whether the AT&T version has a 3.5mm jack or not. I can't believe that whoever took that spy picture didn't think of taking a picture of the bottom! This could have been cleared up a month ago!
The waiting won't be over until that device is in my grubby mitts With so many rumored dates already floating around its hard to get excited about this, even if it was posted on BGR.
Edit: Wait, the 18th? Is Sunday a typical day for device releases?
YES!!!!

My question is whether the 2-year-contract price will be closer to Verizon ($200) or TMobile ($349)...
My question is, how soon til the HTC Leo will be offered by AT&T? I've been free of my contract since this past June and have been waiting for the Tilt 2, but after seeing the HTC Leo, I wish I could get a possible release date for that to see if it would be worth the wait. I understand it doesn't have a keyboard, but with a screen like that, don't really need one. http://ai.rs/2009/09/htc-leo/ and http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2009/...ate-is-capacitive-pictured-from-ba/#continued

Well, judging by the TP2 (announced in Feb. 09' to launch on AT&T Oct. 09') I would say about 8-9 months after it is announced at the earliest. And that's if AT&T decides to subsidize it. Personally, I'm sticking with TP2 since I have already been waiting 8 months for it to come to AT&T.

I agree with AT&T's lack of effort to push anything that doesn't begin with the letter I and end with phone. However, the HTC Leo is further along, than the Touch Pro 2 is, when we first heard about it. There's already video of the phone being shown with WM 6.5, a gallery of pics, and detailed specs with a much better snapdragon processor. I've got to believe this phone could be available before Christmas, if not somewhere in Q1 2010. I just want to guard against purchasing the Tilt 2, which I've been waiting for the past 6 months, and all of a sudden 2 months later, this phone comes out- which clearly has much better specs all the way around.

Seeing as the HTC Leo hasn't hit the FCC yet (that we know of), it has next to 0% chance of being released this year in the US. At earliest I would guess early Spring 2010.
Who knows if AT&T will even release the Leo. Did you see how insanely fast that was? Almost nothing took longer than 1 second to open! Nearly everything was instant! After 3 years of the MSM7200, we can FINALLY have a decent processor. Windows Mobile will stop getting a bad rep due to the MSM7200 garbage 90% of the WinMo phones have been using.
I just talked to a few rep's in the Portland OR area and they are also saying mid October as a release for the "Tilt 2".
Release date same for entire US?
When ATT releases their phones, is the release date the same for the enitre US? The reason being is that I live in Hawaii and I don't know if that will affect the actual release date. I'd really like to know because when that day comes I'm going to be there first thing and I don't want to receive any blank stares.

Your best bet is to call your store once the date is official and find out what they say. My guess would be its nationwide.

Will AT&T ever Update the Tilt 2 Rom?

Hey with the latest releases of the Verizon & Leaked T-mobile Roms for the Touch Pro 2. Do you think that AT&T will ever release an update for the Tilt 2? Will it be Soon, Later or Never for this device?
HTC almost always releases at least one update per phone per carrier. It's anyone's guess when it might happen and what it will address tho.
Well the Verizon TP2 and TMobile phones were still only (officially) running WM 6.1 so the update just gets them even with the Tilt 2

Also you can flash a cooked ROM, that on my experience always are much faster and less crap than any stock ROM

There is no rom. It is only a patch for the original AT&T Rom. My original question was will AT&T release another official ROM update. I know since they were first off the block with 6.5 and the with all the announcements at CES and the iPhone Problems (3g connection) the TIlt 2 will get no attention! So its left up to the cooks out there to keep us happy.

Did T-mobile release 5.1 OTA yet?

I heard the 5.1 T-mo OTA was supposed to be today. Can anyone confirm or deny this?
Thanks

No not yet. Everyone is anxiously awaiting word from Mo Versi on twitter that the update has been approved and that OTA will begin shortly. He had previously said he expected approval on 7/17 and release on 7/20 but it hasn't happened yet.
I am not happy that TMO has been holding this up to the point where even AT&T got it out first and they are near the bottom in terms of releasing updates.

I actually saw the convo on twitter.. I read elsewhere that since they are behind the 8 ball that they may skip 5.1 and just dive into Android M when its released. Of course this is all rumor and speculation. I asked mo on twitter today if there was any news but he didn't respond.

No they're not skipping 5.1. They are so far behind in firmware they won't skip 5.1 on a flagship device like this. Most likely there was some last min bug with a piece of TMO bloatware that they had to correct. That's almost always the reason...

Hopefully they release it soon. I'm only looking forward to it so that viperone gets WiFi calling and HD calling working on the updated firmware.
"Meanwhile, Sentinel Republic claimed that HTC senior vice president for Product Management Mo Versi confirmed that HTC One M9 users under T-Mobile and Verizon will receive the Android 5.1.1 OTA on July 20."

That's the same article I read. It's not really a big deal to me either way. I'd rather wait a little longer and get a stable release than have them rush it out full of bugs.
Since there's been a bit of a slow down with the m9 and I'm getting bored with it. I am trying to get my hands on a nexus so I can flash the Android m preview. Will keep my m9 as my daily driver though.

Yeah I am with you. The fact that it has taken this long is ridiculous, we should have had this update weeks ago and it's likely held up with the crap bloatware from TMO we're all going to remove anyway...
Not sure it helps but I've been giving TMO and HTC hell on Twitter.

Since the action is so slow for the m9 I bought a nexus 5 last night... There's like 50 roms plus Android m for that thing! Too bad the phones not as a good of a quality as the m9.

This feature is supposed to be on the Samsung Galaxy grand prime or something like that , so it is doubtful it will come in this update , that device drops next month .
Ha-ha I totally skipped the last paragraph stating that... OK I'm out if excuses now
T-Mobile's Des tweeted- said possibly next week and will give an update on Monday as to status. They weren't done testing yet was the reason for delay. We'll see I guess.

The last two beta updates I got them on a Tuesday around 6:30pm PST.
Maybe today we could get it

yep, dont know why everyone stays in just TMO parts of the forums. All roms are compatible with all G955U phones. Well not all. Only the ones that invove AT&T,VERIZON,TMO,AND SPRINT. Once you flash just sitback and watch it switch to your carrier. AT&T part of the forums are good for updates,all you need to know is there on norbarbs threads. Verizon section has jrkruse who is an excellent rom builder. Sprint and Tmo are kind of the boring sections. In the Main screen of the S8+ part of these threads in Android Developement, you have another excellent rom builder, partcyborg. His roms are favored by many aand are excellent for speed. Back to the matter, thank you Kingaries79 for showing them the way. Guys just need to expand there is more going on out there than in this sub-forum.
I just got checked and got the update btw. T-Mobile S8+
Yes, just signed up for Beta today and they pushed the beta 5 immediately.

It's just luck. It appeared in the Samsung+ app all of a sudden. Was already giving up and then it appeared after a few weeks. But I think the beta testing is anyway over and they will roll out Oreo hopefully end of the month.
