Mytouch 3g slide falling behind?

[Drzfr3shboialex]

Every phone is practically getting froyo or has a date around when, but t-mobile, and htc are keeping quiet about it. What do you guys think?

I kept hearing at least by the end of the year. Some people say since we got that one OTA update, it means we probably won't be getting Froyo for a while...

I dunno though, it'd be nice. :x

The Slide is getting FroYo although no dates have been given

I think you guys won't get it.for a while...my friend has a slide, and he is a bit pissed that he won't be getting froyo soon

I heard maybe around October but nothing etched in stone. Its just a waiting game but I am sure we will get it eventually.

Are you guys KIDDING? You are whining on an android modding site, that you dont have froyo!? when they are a plethora of guides and FROYO ROMS to choose from!? Seriously..

 

[Drzfr3shboialex]

@jdv28 not everybody roots so if you are here to talk crap then don't even bother, no life

Plus I think they want Espresso Froyo, not vanilla Froyo.

The thing is that the Froyo is "comming soon" and we the users who haven't rooted yet are undecided to whether wait and get the clean update, or choose to figure the root thong out and get Froyo and its features nooow.
Right now I'm gathering information, reading tutorials, and understanding everything to be ready to root and flash Cyanogen Rom, now I just hope that by the time I do all this I don't want to hear "hey yo heard the news!? Froyo for Slide is hea!" I'd be maaad!!
But this thought comes to my mind... Ain't I getting the same thing?? The difference is that I'd be rooted...

Yes if you were to go and root your phone, you can have froyo all day, but everyone is waiting for an official release so they can keep the Sense UI, which has all the nice widgets and such. I myself am skeptical as to when that will happen. I like froyo and all, but I've always been a fan of the Sense UI, so ill stick it out, occasionally flashing all the other great roms we have.

Why would you be mad?...I think you dont completely understand the whole concept of XDA...Devs can make a rooted version of a OTA rom, including an Froyo Esp when its released...So no worries, have root makes the phone...well yours! Before you didnt have full control and know you do, ive been using android since last october and had the chance to use eclair,froyo,sense,espresso all on my g1, now that i have a slide i only want sense non of that boring vanilla crap, that can kick rocks or something. Im all about Eye-candy, i get bored of looking at vanilla android.

plus, an official ota will also improve all current froyo builds for the MTS. alot of stuff can be ported and fixed like bluetooth, wifi, etc...

It took me ages to decide to root, and once I did, i went back to the stock rom (rooted). Two years ago my phone was a P.O.S. till Cyanogen came up and beat it into shape. Now i have a decent device with OK software. We've come a long way and more and more people are happy with stock. Once they work the bugs out of Cyanogenmod I will probably move ove. Till then, i am good.

2.2 for the Slide should be out before the end of the summer according to our HTC rep,most likely sometime in September. The other bit of good news is that it will include WiFi calling ability.

Yes I understand, man this developers are awesome!
How ever, as for what I've seen the root method is still complicated for the MyTouch Slide, 2 procedures to root and one to flash a room, (I'd like CyanogenMod)
I've dealed with Sony Ericsson Walkman phones modding, but Android's are more complex xO
The things that make me feel like trying it out are:
-Froyo of course..
-Full Flash Player 10.1
-Install apps on SD (I've read it requires more things like a partition and don't know what else)
-Live Wallpapers
-make it mine.....
The things that pull me back and make me feel like not. trying:
What if battery life was better in stock rom??
The tutorials sound a lil' experimental
Besides rooting and rom flashing, there also this Radio thing.... is it nesesary or optional??

I'd like to save my self fun time and head breaking from not trying. THEN WHY I AM HERE?!---- Because I'm undecideeeeeeed xO

Trust me battery wont change just cause you rooted, some say Froyo has "better" battery life, now i cant promise cause i dont use froyo on my slide.I oc and get 1 day+....Well depending on usage of course.
You need to upgrade your radio too, it is very simple to root, i rooted my slide twice with the new new method that just came out(1-2 weeks ago)

Also some people are 15, and have their parents paid the bill, as well as paying for warranty every month, so rooting is not an option for me.
