2.1 is the WORST update ever. Every single application just come on and my battery now dies within an hour versus lasting all day prior under 1.13 and 1.6.

it just shuts my phone off randomly. When I go to advance task killer every single application is on, even the alarm clock…lol

Wished I could get back to 1.6.

I also was hoping that versions 2.1 and 1.5 could be referenced somehow and maybe the main dudes can let us know when a new release will be availabe for this phone. It definitely has the capabilities, but BLUR is kinda holding it back….I hope soon they will be compatable.

It’d be nice if they could improve the Bluetooth to the point where it didn’t cut out for a full second during a song every couple minutes.

I’m really hoping for updates to the Android OS as well. Some features I miss that I hope will be available to make my work easier:
* Voice dialing from my bluetooth headset
* Longer battery life
* VPN connectivity to my business’s network

I talked with T-Mobile and Motorola support 12-27-09. Both indicated an update would be coming. If not soon I will be returning this phone and T-Mobile may loose a customer that has been with them for 10 years.

Yes no 1.6. I was wondering why not just do it as 1 big update. Maybe they are waiting on 2.0 or even 2.1.

For those of you having problems with the update. Make sure that your wi-fi is on. I return the phone several times in the last ten days because of the battery life. Hope this helps.

Here’s Motorola’s response when asked about future updates to Android OS on the Cliq:

“Regarding your concern, at this moment we cannot confirm when an upgrade will be available. However the phone is ready to receive software upgrades to both the Google Android OS, and the Moto Blur interface, therefore upgrades are being planned, but we don’t have a release schedule, or confirmation up to which Android version it’s going to upgrade”

They better announce something in the next two weeks or this thing is getting returned…

i was really hating on this phone because of the problems with the touch screen (unresponsive and constantly opening things i didn’t want open). i also was getting way too many force closes. i’ve had the update for a few hours and so far it’s been a HUGE improvement but this is something they should have had fixed OOB because if i wasn’t past the remorse period i would have sent this phone back. this isn’t really an update it’s a ‘fix’. hopefully the update is coming soon but if after this much time we get only the fix then i’m not very optimistic about it appearing in the next couple months which sucks because i’d like to try the map nav app.

ive looked every where on the pages they provide in this post but i cant find a way to do this manually ie via usb like downloading the update from a computer and updating that way. does anyone know if this is possible or do we have to do it via the update push.

Installed with ease but why waste my time with such a minor update..give us 2.0 or at least 1.6 so I can use google navigation. Till then I stick with my mytouch..oh the battery life still sucks

Went in flawlessly and my initial tests with screen accuracy show marked improvement. Labyrinth and accelerometer 10x smoother. 2 fat thumbs up! Woot! Here’s another vote for 2.x on the Cliq – only thing stopping me from purchasing one for my wife.
