Putting together some pieces off the mailing lists, it looks like someone is working on a CDMA “Google-experience” phone. I’ve got your likely specs below. No word on carrier, no blurrycam pics, no FCC filings. Just the hints.
So you missed Google I/O, and failed to get yourself a free “Ion” (Magic). Don’t despair, you may not have the shiny black bling but you can have the software.
(Update: No you can’t, my bad. That is a patch zip, not a full. BUT .. I got my hands on a system dump and built an update.zip for you guys.)
So the rumours of UK G1 users getting cupcake have been floating around for a few days now. Looks like the truth is about 1,000 people were updated for ‘testing’, but now the wider rollout has started! If you want to jump the line queue, read on..
And not the BS about “oh it has this much nand, and it is probably this speed, and the cpu part number might be NVRTELLU43″, but real, actual, honest-to-god hardware specs. (Some of) you want them. (All of you want them, you just don’t know it yet – these are the real deal, so we can do things like, oh, I dunno, USB-OTG and USB-HOST. Want tv out? Yeah, you know you do..)
Thanks to eagle-eyed posters over on XDA-Dev, we have an official ADP1.1 update.zip image! (Update: Now there is a version with no device/version checks. Enjoy!)
Update 2: Now we know what it is!
Courtesy a nameless benefactor with magic fingers, an updated official ADP1 image has leaked. Want it? (No, this is not cupcake. Don’t get all freakazoid on me when you don’t get an onscreen keyboard.)
