I think you need to find your way over to the g1 specific forums. They have a few roms if you root your g1 that have 2.1, if I'm correct the g1 doesn't have enough space to officially take the 2.1 update. 1.6 is the highest ota update you'll get....
Side note after running some of the 2.1 roms on my g1, I found the 1.6 roms to be more compatible & work a little more smoothly. 2.1 looks sweet on the nexus though :-D

I have finally find the new mod from the last Mod Cyanogen 5.0.7 test1
I have read that there is a better use of the memory with this Mod and it can run Android Eclair perfectly. Will try this week, and tell you.
thanks.

google earth has (FINALLY!!) been released for android, but there arent ANY 2.1 roms out that work perfectly with sense ui. i really dont want to leave cursorsense.. is it possible to get this to work on android 1.5?
It's very unlikely. It will rely on the 2.1 Android Librarys for drawing etc. It should be a matter of a couple of months until stable 2.1 roms (official perhaps) come out.
Have you tried pushing a 2.1 build.prop then trying to download google earth, my just be the firmware version but im sure it runs on cupcake

yea i tried using a build.prop from a 2.1 rom, still no success..
are they planning on releasing it for 1.5 or just upgrading the 1.5s to 2.1s?

im not sure, I have a mytouch 32A 1.2 (the 3.5 headjack) it comes with 1.6 and i hear all phones will upgrade to 2.1
but i think its only for 2.1 firmware, might be an issue with frameworks or something
So, seeing as though the 2.1 leak was an Eris build, do any of the Devs think that perhaps we would be able to download the Skype for Android and have it work if we are using that build ???
Skype for Eris 2.1
If you have the leaked 2.1 for Eris, you can download and install from here:

give me for verizon users only when trying to open it using fresh 2.0c rom
same with damage control 1.0
If they are Sprint based Hero ROMs, it will not work. It's the same situation with the NFL Mobile app before they set it for all carriers. It sucks, but I'm sure Skype will be available from all carriers soon enough.
I still have the Skype beta apk, that still works. I can upload when I get home.

Yeah I think I read on the cm site that they haven't hooked up flash for cyanogen mods. Could be wrong there is a Tom thats has it on the android spin site. Good luck

Has anyone else here just given up on 2.2 being released, and instead are more excited about custom 2.3?

Nope, 2.2 overcomes a bigger barrier than 2.3. With 2.1 I'll finally be able to use the new GMail app, the new voice search app, etc. 2.3 is nice & interesting, but there really aren't any killer features to me besides the new look. And even that is achievable using a theme. Plus a released 2.2 will be more stable than a ported 2.3.
Note: The only reason I am on 2.1 still is I am waiting for a stable 2.2 captivate release to use as a basis for my next custom ROM.

you should try the axura rom. most stable rom to date! AND its 2.2..... AND GPS works great for most people using the rom. AND it has awesome support! AND....
The main reason i'm waiting for the official release is i don't want to wipe my phone/
I haven't given up because I've been using a fully functional Captivate-build of Froyo thanks to Cognition. Yes, it's not the 100% official 100% final version, but ya know what? It runs really damn good and I have yet to find anything missing/buggy due to the Froyo leak itself.
Don't want to wipe your phone? There are so many apps out there that make backing up and restoring a breeze. TitaniumBackup and ROM Manager to name two. I can flash a new version of Cognition AND have all my apps back up and running with their saved data in 20 minutes or less.

Not interested in no voicemail, the look of Axura, or using a kernel not built from Captivate source. Plus I'm tired of flashing ROMs lol
I'm sure Axura is a fine ROM for those who made that jump. I just like making my own ROMs from other people's Captivate parts.
I'm more tired of seeing yet another thread about the unreleased official Froyo 2.2.
I deem this thread close
We will see when they release an official version of 2.2 and there will be threads all over the place when it happens.
Just got a Samsung Mesmerize for USCC and was told that Froyo will be pushing out soon. Should I root and update to leaked 2.2 or wait for official?
Also I was hearing that once Official Froyo is released Cyanogenmod ROM should become available? Is that correct and/or will more some become available once the Official update is released.

It's a personal choice.
If you upgrade your phone at all (even if only doing custom 2.1 installs) you are going to most likely have to use Odin to go back to stock 2.1-update1 in order to install the official release (I'm pretty sure your phone will have to be as it was out of the box to install their update)
And no, cyanogen MOD just doesn't become available once the source is released, there still has to be people to work on building it - but it will be a lot easier to do once we have official source code - then you may see a team get together to build a supported version for the galaxy s model (which we could then port to mes). Also, once we have that we can also expect to see the kernel MOD's make it into 2.2 from 2.1.
My question is, why is everyone so concerned about getting the official drop, when i'ts going to be bloated to hell just like stock 2.1 is? Soon after it drops, you're going to see a custom deodexed and non bloated ROM and a new kernel - so you're most likely going to end up upgrading to that anyway. So in my opinion, upgrade now - then skip the official bloat release and upgrade to our customized version once i'ts complete (built off of the official 2.2 source).
What Version of 2.2 is the most up to date EC10? And it wont update when the official OTA is dropped correct? Its actually for a friend of mine I have a Dinc and only have experience in that.
On a side note. Why is this Odin thing so popular here and not Flashing with Clockwork like on the Dinc?

So what do you recommend? Its actually for a friend of mine I have a Dinc and only have experience in that.
So if I just root it now (Z4root) will the the official update brake the root? If there is no stable 2.2 ROM yet then I will just wait. Really only need Wireless tether for now. Any and all help is appreciated.

He already told you what he recommends, get 2.2. The other questions are answered in various threads throughout these forums.

What he said^
And btw, it isn't an OTA update - it would be downloaded on your PC and installed via Kies. (not sure of the details, but this is what I've heard many times)
2.2 is already at the stores as of yesterday, our tech was given permission to upgrade the Mesmerizes in stock and employee phones, so if you were to buy a new one it'd be running froyo..
I personally got my own i500 upgraded yesterday morning and got to spend the last 24 hours reinstalling all my apps.. USCC should make an announcement on Facebook very soon.
I'm interested in removing some of this bloatware, what would be the best way to do that running the offical 2.2?
