T-Mobile MyTouch 3G

A few Android senior citizens have found themselves wander onto HTCDev’s list of officially supported devices. The HTC Hero, Legend, Droid Eris, MyTouch 3G and MyTouch 4G are the oldest, er– newest devices ripe for the unlocking using HTC’s handy dandy bootloader unlocking tool. Nice to see HTC throw a couple of oldies in there [...]

The folks that make up Team Douche have officially announced that the original Android phone and its cousin, the T-Mobile G1 (HTC Dream, Android Dev Phone 1) and the MyTouch 3G (HTC Magic, aka G1 without a keyboard and – in some cases – more RAM and a headphone port) have been dropped from the [...]

Honeycomb is beginning to reach back into the archives with a couple of new ports for older devices. By older, we mean two of the original Gs to hit the scene, the T-Mobile G1 and the myTouch 3G. This further spits in the face of the notion that Honeycomb requires a set of minimum specifications, [...]

Originally the MyTouch 3G 1.0 was supposed to have its FroYo roll out completed by 25 October. That window has now been extended to 15 December. A disappointment for sure as no reason was given for why the delay was issued, the only reason I can infer is to alleviate network stress; but that’s all [...]

It looks like some of you are already starting to get the upgrade to Android 2.2 for your MyTouch 3G. (Yea, the original.) Judging by this thread on T-Mobile’s forums, T-Mobile wasn’t bulling and most of you MyTouch 3G owners will be seeing this thing before Halloween. The only problem is that some of you [...]

It’s always a sad day when I have to report about the eventual kicking of the bucket for any Android handset. Today, TmoNews’ source says that three of T-Mobile’s Android phones will be hitting end-of-life on October 4th. The MyTouch 1.2 (the one with the 3.5mm headphone jack, more memory, etc.), the Motorola CLIQ, and [...]

The tried and true myTouch 3G is now available for free on a new two-year contract with T-Mobile, so what better time than now to pick up the phone that may be aging but isn’t quite down for the count yet. It is promised an update to the latest Android OS version 2.2 along with [...]

It was once believed that the T-Mobile G1 (aka Android Dev Phone 1 in the developer circuit and HTC Dream in other parts of the world) could never die: it was, after all, the first Android device ever created that brought about a ridiculous amount of support from nearly every major player in every part [...]

Now that Google has open-sourced the code for Froyo (Android 2.2) you better believe the folks at CyanogenMod aren’t just going to sit on their hands and wait for the manufacturer’s to port the OS to their phones. Not in the least, as the team is already plugging away at the next version of their [...]

Shortly after Android 2.2 was announced, the myTouch 3G was one of the first phones to see an unofficial port of the latest version of the OS. While HTC assured the world that the new myTouch 3G Slide would be seeing an update to Froyo, owners of the original myTouch were left to wonder if [...]

Before you read the rest of this post, watch the video: the music will make you happy. Anyway, Android-France has a video showing an unofficial port of Froyo on the HTC Magic. We knew the XDA scene was hard at work on SDK image-based ports for the Magic/T-Mobile MyTouch 3G already (as well as the T-Mobile [...]

It’s only been one day since Google announced Android 2.2 and released the SDK to the public (and it’s been less than an hour since we reported that Froyo would technically be able to run on older phones such as the T-Mobile G1), and now a bootable ROM has already (supposedly) been ported to both [...]

I knew that when the T-Mobile G1 and  the T-Mobile myTouch 3G were released, they’d be destined for an OTA gas chamber as their under-spec’d hardware proved too little to handle Android’s ambitious growth. While the MyTouch 3G has always been a bit more capable (in terms of ROM space, at least), the future looked [...]

T-Mobile’s bringing folks a great deal in time for Mother’s Day. For an unspecified period of time (the rep didn’t say in the email) you can buy one smartphone at its regular price, and get the second one completely free. The obvious scenario here would be to snatch one up for yourself and pass one [...]

TMOtoday has published a trio of rumors today, stating that the Motorola CLIQ XT is arriving in stores, will start selling March 17th for $99, and will immediately be available as part of a Buy One Get One Free campaign at T-Mobile that they said would start today. Internal screenshot regarding price/date: Here is the [...]

For those of you waiting for the new myTouch, today might be your day. The myTouch 3G with 3.5mm jack was phone was rumored to launch, today, February 10th and T-Mobile posted it to their site this morning. New additions to the phone include: 3.5 mm headset jack 288 MB of RAM Swype keyboard doubleTwist [...]

News for myTouch 1.2 users, check the area inside the square in the middle of the screen shot. It states that the myTouch 1.2, which is the same as the myTouch 3G with 3.5mm Jack, will have the new Swype text input method. This will be the first touchscreen T-Mobile device ever to feature an [...]

The guitar styled hotness that was the MyTouch 3G Fender Edition is no more – the device has sold out. Rumor also has it that regular MyTouch 3G phones are low on supply as the Black MyTouch 3G is no longer an option for upgraders. The likely cause? A MyTouch 1.2 that adds a 3.5mm [...]

If you’re music-loving MyTouch fan you may have been really excited by the Fender Edition of the phone that was first announced in October. You were probably disappointed when it never saw the light of day and also probably forgot about it by now. Don’t get your hopes up just yet but a TMOnews tipster [...]

Many T-Mobile fans have blamed the Deutsch carrier for not getting their hands on the HTC Hero. T-Mobile had plans to release the myTouch Fender LE, but release had been pushed back to Q1 2010. According to production files HTC had produced two different Magic phones. The PVT32A used 288 MB of RAM, while the [...]
