I have to g1 and I love it, but it has flaws, like the version upgrade to 2.0 I can’t get a lot of things that most others can have because of this, also the phones memory space is horrible, and why is it only music and pictures that go to the micro card and nothing else even though those things still stay on my phone which takes a lot of my space as well. So I just want to know when these things will be fixed. I also am wondering if google is not upgrading these phones is it because they are trying to make us spend more to get what we really need out of it??

i will not be buying another android phone in the future atleast from tmobile. i perfer my jailbroken and unlocked iphone. the updates performed on the andorid phones has seemed to make them even worse instead of better. for now my android phone sits in a drawer awaiting a possible update but i doubt that day will ever come from google or tmobile

Ah, looking back… here we are in MAY 2010 and we still don’t have Android 2.0 on the Cliq or any other T-Mobile phone. (Well, the myTouch Slide coming out in a few weeks, but otherwise…)

I’m very, very disappointed that we’ve had such a lead-on about updates for our phones. This fragmentation of the operating system is NOT what Google and the OHA wanted!

I was told by a manager at Motorola’s repair center that there is a major disconnect between Schaumburg where the suits live and India where the developers for motoblur live. Very definitely a case of one hand not having any idea what the other is doing. The suits don’t answer questions because the developers don’t tell them very much and they’ve learned to distrust much of what they’re told.

I will sell my cliq and go back to G1 or Mytouch and that’s the end of it… Motorola is WACK!!!!

I really believe that the motorola cliq needs the android 2.0 update immediately motoblur is already nice but it could do so much more that firmware update.

I ended up taking my Cliq Back, and swapping it out for a MT3G. The *only* thing I don’t like about the MT3G is lack of a hardware keyboard. Compared to the *numerous* issues I had with my Cliq. The biggest one of course, being the 1.5 OS. I previously used (and still own) a G1. After having 1.6, going back to 1.5 was horrid. On top of that, BLUR just isn’t really all that great.

If Moto had released this device running 1.6, I’d be okay with that. Even with the presumptive long wait to get 2.0. But the fact that they’re releasing hardware with outdated software shows just how lost moto seems to be these days.

Don’t get me wrong, I’ve enjoyed other moto products in the past.. But those days are far past.

Also, if anyone cares, the slider on the Cliq is flimsy, at best. It rides on rails,that are parallel; the problem with this, is that it makes the screen ‘shaky’ when it’s open, and feels like it’s broke or breaking when it’s closed.

Just my 2 cents.

I will most likely be getting rid of my Cliq. Ill be picking up the MyTouch 3G and waiting for my 2.0 Update. Sucks cause I really like the hard keyboard. Too bad Motorola is falling back into the Abyss of BS as they always have.

I can understand why Motorola wouldn’t want to commit to an upgrade to 2.0. They already have MOTOBLUR working with the previous version of Android. Unless there’s something major that their MOTOBLUR software needs in the next version why would they want to put all that money/effort into testing it and changing it to work with 2.0?
What would they gain from it? They can’t charge for upgrading to 2.0, and they are already struggling so why would they pour resources into software changes unless it is for a new phone or something that will provide concrete returns.
If you don’t like the Cliq and wouldn’t buy it unless it had 2.0 then don’t buy it..its not the phone for you. If you like the Cliq, but want free new features only a month after it came out, then you’re living on fantasy island.
