Re: Sprint Users 6.5 ROM Feb 1st (FYI)
 
Ok here's the scoop. I have this information from a VERY reliable source. The Sprint Touch Pro 2 6.5 ROM is going to be released ANY DAY!!!!! It could be on a Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, or even a Sunday but it will be ANY day! Did I also mention that it could be ANY WEEK or ANY MONTH.... :)


Seriously though how many people expected to see the other TP2 ROMS when they suddenly showed up without much warning?

It will be released when it is finished. The last thing we need is a buggy ROM. Chill. Crack open a cold one and relax...

And some of you and your stories I find hard to believe. I really doubt anyone in advanced tech said there will be a choice between Android and WinMo. That made me LOL. :evil4:



As soon as I find out.. I am pretty sure I would let you guys know... and I have been asking and asking and asking and asking and asking and asking and asking and asking and asking and asking and asking..

you get the idea...


Thanks C0011j! if it helps her name was Carmen. but probably not due to im sure Sprint has tons of call centers. but the person that transferred me to her was Jessica, rep id: bz320375. I got this from the ecare email they send you after a call. ( we only discussed WinMo 6.5)

Also Said if its not available by then to call back and they'll be able to tell me if its been pushed back.

I was talking to them in oct? of last year and they said it would definately be out by dec. I told him about the 2010 rumors and he said it was for sure going to come out by dec. There is no way it will come out next year....

Things like that they would most likely advise all. It's possible I suppose, I just doubt it.

Uhh...who cares when it is going to released? The day it is released, it will already be outdated by our awesome Chefs.

We might get a radio flash out of it, but big whoop.

And here's what is says in the Sprint community from a Sprint Admin ...

Sprint and HTC are currently developing a release of Windows Mobile 6.5 for the HTC Touch Pro2 that is expected to be available to customers by end of first quarter, 2010. This upgrade will not only provide updates to the Windows Mobile platform, but also significant enhancements to the Touch Pro2 user interface which will allow additional customization/personalization options and more integration with the applications users access most.

As i predicted it comes out during the time the next big thing will be coming windows m,7. Im so sick of sprint and there lack of ability to keep up with the times. When sprint releases windows 6.5 windows 7 will have been leaked out and people will be having custom roms for that. Then 6.5 is uselss almost. SPRINT GET YOUR SH*T together.

Not going to happen. Not by a long shot. Considering the only phone even capable of handling WM7 is the HD2. And seriously, why single Sprint out? Oh what they got their official update a week after Verizon? Jesus seriously, go complain to MS

community.sprint.com/baw/thread/26301

here somewhat of proof that sprint is working on 6.5..

i dont think they would let an admin post lies on a sprint thread..
and admins are usualy the guys that leak things.

pdawg17 01-14-2010 07:20 PM

Re: Sprint Users 6.5 ROM Feb 1st (FYI)
 
So we're looking at March/April I would think...what the heck are they working on that Verizon, T-Mobile hasn't done already?

Quite possibly.


If this DOES turn out to be truth rather than fiction, all these sprint users better priase sprint for raising the bar, rather than crying that there's no update out at the moment.

If it doesn't happen and it has taken sprint quite a while... continue flaming lol.

This would be definitely a great addon for the sprint rom considering it's taking quite some time to be released.

Although one thing to point out. That comment on the sprint forums doesn't really help stating Q1 of 2010. That's a whole 3 month window.

Good thought...how about throwing "6.6" on there while they are at it?

Knowing Sprint though I'm actually expecting what the other carriers got...only we have to wait 2-3 months longer for it...

Where the hell is this 2-3 month thing coming from???

Verizon got theirs a week ago, Is T-mos even officially out? Sprint could release it in a week. That would be 2 weeks after Verizon and everyone is up in arms. Wtf

Ummm...I admit it is a guess...I'm not complaining (I run custom ROMs)...if it were out a week from now though would they say "by the end of first quarter"?

Sure...let's find this again when the end of March/early April comes...

Again, I can't speak for the whiners here...I'm just saying that when a company (for the most part any company) says "by the end of the first quarter", it sure as hell doesn't mean next week...
