This news comes courtesy of a forum post over at Mocado, so take with salt, but a user is claiming to have been told by the maker of the T-Mobile Pulse that ROM updates ARE in progress for the pre-pay Android phone, with a 2.0 version expected to hit in April.
This news comes direct from the manufacturer, so it’ll be up to individual networks in various countries to pump out the update over the air or via the web, when/if it arrives, so prepare to hassle your local operator. The full quote over on Mocado goes as follows…
We are planning to develop the ROM 2.0 and 2.1, the ROM 2.0 may be released before April and at the same time we need to get approval from T-Mobile.
Customers can get this information from the T-Mobile website when the new firmware is released and approved by T-Mobile.
Many thanks.
And that’s the T-Mobile Pulse, manufactured for T-Mobile by Huawei, a phone we had previously thought consigned to the DUSTBIN of legacy devices doomed to be stuck on Android 1.5 forever. But no! Great news for all Pulse users. Let’s hope this isn’t just someone having a laugh on the internet, eh?
The Panasonic Eluga marks the company’s return to the European mobile phone scene years after several years of absence, and it’s come back to us with a moderately high-spec Android model that features a rather stylish, slim case.
The HTC One V is HTC’s third entry in its high-profile new HTC One range, offering a smaller 3.7″ display running on a single-core 1GHz processor. It is is very much the “affordable” option in HTC’s newest Android series, but…
The HTC One S is the piggy in the middle of HTC’s 2012 line-up, offering a 4.3″ AMOLED display inside a very slim and stylish aluminium chassis. The end result is a phone that’s very, very slim and stylish.
HTC’s new quad-core monster, the 4.7″ flagship for 2012 that introduces the Tegra 3 processor to mobile phones, updates HTC’s range to Android 4.0 and brings us the supposedly streamlined version 4.0 of HTC’s Sense user interface.
Sony returns with an all-new mobile design for 2012, pairing a dual-core processor with a 720p display. It’s a lovely phone, but is it enough to end our Samsung and HTC obsession?
LG’s updated Prada phone comes with an absolutely crazy black & white theme, but is it just for fashionable suit wearers who want to make themselves look a bit more interesting?

/ April 19, 2010I bet we will see May with no 2.x update. Another leaked memo will claim that the manufacturer are just about to release an update pending T-Mobile’s approval, meanwhile T-Mobile will leak a story about them waiting for a new release from the manufacturer.

Willkay

Huawei site has got 2.1 ROM for T-Mobile Hungry users but so far nothing for UK customers.
